Yup
I believe Sessions will be the next to be kicked off Survivor WH


Attorney General or Trump's punching bag? Hard to tell.

I don't think he ever expected it was going to turn out that way since he's was Trump's first high profile political supporter.

Chris Christie was actually lucky he got walked on like a rug at the beginning and tossed aside.

Trump, the guy who wants loyalty but has so little to return.

When one reads such things, one wonders “Who the hell is crazy enough to want to work for Trump any more?”

It’s worth remembering, then, the Terror during the French Revolution. Military commanders were habitually executed for failures at the front lines, depending almost solely on the judgment of a political officer (ie Representative on Mission). Yet the need to protect the country, or the chances for advancement, or both, kept men coming to the front to try.

People under Trump risk humiliation and damage to their reputations, but not death by guillotine. They’ll keep on coming.

Trump's CIA nomination

Quote:
Haspel joined the CIA in 1985 and faced scrutiny for her role surrounding waterboarding and other interrogation techniques used on detainees at a secret CIA prison in Thailand in 2002.

The American Civil Liberties Union said Haspel was "up to her eyeballs in torture, both in running a secret torture prison in Thailand and carrying out an order to cover up torture crimes by destroying videotapes."

Progressive foreign policy groups are fighting back against her nomination, saying her direct role in the torture program should "disqualify her" from the position.


Anyone surprised?

No, not surprised.

"Only the best people" are more empty words, like "drain the swamp" and "lock her up" - things that sell well during a campaign but are then discarded.

Some deadline has passed for the Stormy Daniels thing.

I wouldn't shed too many tears over any extremely embarrassing reveals. Trump on his knees.

You'd think a "stable genius" could keep a stable cabinet.

But then, if Trump's brains were dynamite, he couldn't blow his nose.

"Tillerson had been forced to cut short the African tour on Monday to return to deal with urgent work in Washington."

Or to put it another way, Tillerson anticipated that trumpy would tell him to buy his own ticket back, having failed to abandon Comey when he was unceremoniously fired. Tillerson's latest offense: Suggesting that those nice Ruskies were behind trying to murder an Ex-Ruskie agent on UK sovereign territory with very Russian nerve agent. Close to an Act Of War against a NATO member.

Wait till Vlad starts using that nerve agent on US territory. That action was almost obviously an overt warning to a few potential US witnesses against trumpy.

US foreign policy is now in as bad a place as it will ever be. Refusing to critisise Russia for its act of war on the UK, and now one general away from starting a shooting war with NK.

Mattis next, or Sessions, or Kelly? Who's taking bets?


McMaster, then Jarvanka. Then Kelly. Mattis perhaps last, but may also go because of Tillerson. I heard some rumors a while back Rex, Kelly, Mattis had/have a one goes, all go agreement. No idea if that still holds.

Nope. They're trying to make something of her being the first woman CIA chief. But Trump said during the campaign he wanted torture brought back. So no surprise they would pick her.

Be ironic if the bridge collapse today was due to skilled illegals fleeing the country.
