QUOTE (SCCWS @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 11:43 AM) On Moncada: There are a lot of guys I've seen whose jumps were exponential," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said. "I think he could potentially be one of those guys. We hope so, as with all of the other young players. "It's a matter of how we present whatever we want to present to him. Hopefully we find the right words and context and show him physically. We can do some things to show him. We've talked about that. He's a bright young man. Wonder what he bases that on??? Maybe because he is the manager and has dealt with him multiple times since the trade? just spitballin

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 11:15 AM) Oops! All Nazis! Donald Trump’s Deputy Assistant has angrily denied being anti-Semitic after he was spotted wearing a military medal associated with Hungarian Nazi sympathisers. Whenever Gorka talks I hear Tucker from "There's Something About Mary", carrying on a fake highbrow accent and wearing fancy suits to appear smart

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 16, 2017 -> 07:55 AM) Every day a new joke emerges. What's on the docket for today? Here is the joke of the day Hahahahahaahah hilarious

So, that Netenyahu press conference was straight up weird

Wow, Puzder withdrew

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 15, 2017 -> 09:04 AM) Didn't Trump praise the IC a few weeks ago with his little staged speech? Didn't he say no one respects them more than Donald Trump. No one. Didn't he say they all voted for him as well? right right right. "Forget about that nazi thing i said, I love you now and have always loved you, you do good work. My crowds were yuge" I believe that is verbatim

you mean it is bad when you call the CIA a bunch of Nazis, and then show multiple conflicts of interest with a foreign government? Who could possibly have guessed that wouldnt work out well?

Ryan and Pence are like "we are heading to the border to check out this wall stuff. You guys got all this handled? Cya later bye "

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 04:38 PM) NYT has updated its story about how the FBI had interviewed Flynn in the first few days, to now say those investigators do not believe he was "entirely forthcoming" https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/02/14/us/po...t.co/mHDa9igK6v While this is interesting, I'm not sure what this democracy looks like with this FBI that leaks out all details of ongoing investigations. What?!? Comey told us all that the FBI doesn't not discuss details of ongoing investigations. A month after he did just that

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 02:38 PM) Russian spy ship spotted off NH coast. Your move Mr. President. Must be boating in illegal voters

lol, Puzder isnt gonna get in after they confirmed all of the other yahoos. What skeleton is really in that mans closet?

Oh isnt that cute that Chaffetz is all tough now

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:52 PM) It's just scary for the biggest reason, at some point something terrible will happen. Their tactic of just lying like crazy to get out of a bad news cycle will come home to roost when people can't trust them for vital information. You know, a major dam is failing in California and there has not been one word from that administration. Not one. This is a moment when they should be out front, trying to ease concern of displaced US citizens, promising emergency disaster relief, help from national guard and army corps of engineers if needed, and we get silence. Spicer instead goes out and makes the lies even worse by creating contradictions from previous statements because YOLO

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 12:07 PM) hey brett any thoughts yet on The Greatest President ever having a compromised Russian stooge as his National Security Advisor despite being told several weeks ago that he was compromised and susceptible to being blackmailed? He is busy using air

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 09:05 AM) For his extreme views, but all indications are he's still not very close to Trump and wasn't for the majority of the general election campaign, either. That said, he's the key bridge between the White House and Congress right now. This asshole went in and confirmed Devos, he lied to the public on behalf of Flynn, if Trump should manage to get impeached then Pence is in charge. This is tier 1

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 09:07 AM) Fun things that have happened in the last 24 days: -Started off day 2 of his Presidency melting down about crowd sizes -Appointed and got confirmed to a Cabinet-level secretaryship a key PAC donor who showed very little understanding of the department she's now running and had ethical and financial disclosure issues (DeVos) -Appointed and got confirmed to Attorney General a man who was racist enough for a 1980's Republican Senate to reject him and who made his first official action to rescind transgendered protections -Approved a badly botched raid that resulted in the death of a Navy SEAL, an 8 year old American girl, and over two dozen civilians and the loss of a multi-million dollar aircraft while failing to accomplish its main objective. It also led to Yemen refusing continued special operations actions. -Lost an entire department of senior international diplomacy personnel to mass resignations; State is now headed by a curiously Russian-friendly former oil company CEO who advocated against Russian sanctions in the past. -Crashed a wedding with the Prime Minister of Japan at his private golf club -Discussed military intelligence surrounding an emergent situation with North Korea in front of a crowd of unvetted civilians and foreign nationals -Allowed unsecured phones to be held over secret briefing documents -Continues to use an unsecured personal phone -Refused to divest himself in any meaningful way from his worldwide business holdings and is likely in direct violation of the terms of his lease for the DC hotel -Forgot to mention Jews in a holocaust remembrance -Kept on as National Security Advisor a man who illegally spoke to Russian diplomats about sanctions against Russia for tampering in the US election and lied about it, despite clear warnings weeks ago that Flynn had lied and was susceptible to blackmail. -Used the office of the President to advertise his daughter's failing clothing line -Repeats unsupported and unsupportable lies about millions of votes being illegally cast -Rushed out a poorly written and extremely poorly implemented ban on travel from seven majority Muslim nations which was halted by the courts after causing mass chaos Probably forgetting a bunch, too. Been an interesting first 24 days. -informed the american public that they will be paying for that wall that isnt needed

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:55 AM) DeVos, Sessions, Mnuchin/Munchkin, Tillerson, Puzder (if he survives), Price Tier 1 Threats Pence, Carson, Perry, Ross, Pruitt (EPA) Tier 2 That's not even taking into consideration Bannon, Conway, Spicer, Miller and Priebus. The funny thing is most of America probably couldn't name more than a handful of Obama's cabinet and staff members over the course of a full 8 years. Pence is 200% tier 1

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:43 AM) fyp e: Mnuchin wants to appoint some other Goldman Sachs guys to the deputy level, too. Seems like handing over the Treasury department to the same investment bankers who tanked the world economy less than ten years ago is an extremely bad idea, but what do I know? Trump's the Greatest President in the Universe, so this must be a good great thing. Fyp also

I just want to point out that while Flynn was getting s***canned, Mnunchin was confirmed. The guy who was busted for predatory loans and funneled 100 million through an offshore bank (and didn't mention that when being vetted, because that was an oversight) was just pushed through and congress was all "cool nbd"

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 08:00 AM) Well the president is using a non-secure phone, a private email server and is discussing state secrets in the middle of a country club dining room. Rock rock rock rock *loooooong sigh* This is fake news. Did you see the presidents approval rating on that one poll? Hillary lost get over it

Petraeus interviewed for the position. So we can go from a guy who can't keep state secrets from Russia to a guy who can't keep state secrets from his mistress. Great things

Nobody wants to talk about the Emma/Emmalina segment

@johnfugelsang Michael Flynn resigns for lying exactly two weeks after Sally Yates is fired for telling the truth.

Great things
