Another Trump failure.
May budget deficit hits record $207.8 billion "WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal government's budget deficit in May rose to a record $207.8 billion, 41.5% higher than a year ago. Most of that increase reflected the impact of calendar quirks that shifted $55 billion in June benefit payments into May. The Treasury Department said Wednesday that the increase in the May deficit from an imbalance of $146.8 billion in May 2018 reflected the fact that because June 1 fell on a Saturday, benefit payments for June were paid out in May". http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/budget-deficit-hits-record-2078-billion-63665089 |

This is nothing but trying to make something out of nothing.
Joe Biden tells 13-year-old's brothers to 'keep the guys away from your sister' "Joe Biden faced criticism after telling a teenage girl’s brothers to “keep the guys away from your sister". http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/joe-biden-girl-comments-iowa-2020-election-democrats-teenager-a8956001.html What older brother doesn't watch after his sister when she is dating? We all know how some young boys and older men can be. My dad and three of my uncles told me to watch after my sister. It's really very simple. Boy/men can be too pushy at times. I can remember one young man that I warned my then 18-year-old sister about. She dated him anyway. And when he tried something like I knew he would, she was expecting it. When I got my hands on him he got just exactly what I told him he would get if he tried anything with my sister. That's what brothers that love their sisters do. So, for them to try to use this as something they can hold over Biden, it's not going to work. He told those boys to be like what an older brother is supposed to be. I see where Biden is a little too touchy-feely sometimes. He needs to get a grip on that. But this, this is reaching. It's reaching way out. It's almost desperation. Just looking for anything. No matter how insignificant it may be. Try to make something out of nothing. It rings of trying to make it a bad or creepy thing to watch out for the sister that you love and try to keep her safe. Again, that's what brothers with a young sister do. |

Biden Leads Trump by 'Landslide' in Latest Quinnipiac Poll
"Former Vice President Joe Biden is pummeling President Donald Trump by “a landslide,” according to a recent national poll. Biden leads Trump, 53% to 40%, in a one-on-one matchup, according to the poll released by Quinnipiac University Tuesday. Biden’s double-digit lead is spurred by a gender gap. Among potential women voters, Biden has a substantial lead, 60% to 34%, while among men, Biden has a narrow lead on Trump, 47% to 46%. While Trump also lags behind five other Democratic presidential candidates in the same poll, it’s Biden’s 13% lead that jumps out, said Tim Malloy, the Quinnipiac poll’s assistant director". http://fortune.com/2019/06/12/biden-trump-quinnipiac-poll/ http://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2627 |

Exposing Russia’s Effort to Sow Discord Online: The Internet Research Agency and Advertisements "On February 16, 2018, Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III indicted 13 Russian individuals and three Russian organizations for engaging in operations to interfere with U.S. political and electoral processes, including the 2016 presidential election. This was a significant step forward in exposing a surreptitious social media campaign and holding accountable those responsible for this attack. The indictment spells out in exhaustive detail the breadth and systematic nature of this conspiracy, dating back to 2014, as well as the multiple ways in which Russian actors misused online platforms to carry out their clandestine operations.

Biden gambles on high-risk primary strategy
"He brags about his ability to get along with Republicans. He’s not in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s good graces. His campaign has sent mixed messages on climate change and abortion funding. If it seems like Joe Biden is running for the nomination of a different Democratic Party than the rest of his rivals, that’s because he is. From his schedule, his messaging, to policy positions, the former vice president is carving a divergent path through the primaries based on a theory that few of his rivals appear to believe — that the Democratic base isn’t nearly as liberal or youthful as everyone thinks". http://www.politico.com/story/2019/06/10/joe-biden-democrats-2020-strategy-1358530 |

Pelosi says Dems ‘not even close’ to starting impeachment
"WASHINGTON (AP) — Brushing back calls for impeachment, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday “it’s not even close” to having enough support in the House, while Democrats pushed forward on other fronts to investigate President Donald Trump. The House voted 229-191 approve a resolution that will allow Democrats to accelerate their legal battles with the Trump administration over access to information from the Russia investigation". http://www.apnews.com/8f21ffd0d5d244cbb6789307a91f9f05 House delays legal action against Barr as Dems secure 'key' Mueller evidence "House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said on Monday he has decided to postpone legal action against the Justice Department for access to former special counsel Robert Mueller’s files.

Hundreds of Central African migrants, trying to escape poverty and violence, crossed the U.S. southern border the first week of June. They're in San Antonio now trying to figure out what's next. --------------- Central Africa is experiencing an Ebola outbreak!!!!!!!!!! Why are these people allowed past the boarder without being quarantined!?!?!?!?!?!?! Oh, you just hate black Africans. You're a racist, will be the response to my posting this. The boarder policy of the democrat's very well could bring Ebola into America: AND THEY DON'T CARE. Come on democrat supporters, is this what you want? They first landed in Brazil. In order to get to the Mexican/American boarder the had to travel through: 1. Brazil 2. Venezuela 3. Panama 4. Costa Rica 5. Nicaragua 6. Hondurans 7. Guatemala 8. Mexico People with no money and no government support. Most governments refuse to allow people who live in or have visited in without serious medical testing. Someone had to of assisted them both financially and politically. The question is who? How did they get from the Mexican boarder to San Antonio?????????? More of this, let's see if I can scare everyone over something that might, or might not happen. And let's try to blame the Democrats for it. What is Ebola Virus Disease? "Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) is a rare and deadly disease most commonly affecting people and nonhuman primates (monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees). It is caused by an infection with a group of viruses within the genus Ebolavirus". http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/about.html 2014-2016 Ebola Outbreak in West Africa http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/history/2014-2016-outbreak/index.html Ebola virus cases in the United States "In December 2014, Ebola virus cases in the United States occurred due to four laboratory-confirmed cases of Ebola virus disease (commonly known as "Ebola") in the United States.[3] Eleven cases have been reported, including these four cases and seven cases medically evacuated from other countries; the first was reported in September 2014.[4] Nine of the people contracted the disease outside the US and traveled into the country, either as regular airline passengers or as medical evacuees; of those nine, two died. Two people have contracted Ebola in the United States. Both were nurses who treated an Ebola patient; both have recovered". "On September 30, 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that Thomas Eric Duncan, a reportedly 42-year-old (later corrected by CDC reports as a 45-year-old Liberian national visiting the United States from Liberia, had been diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas, Texas. Duncan, who had been visiting family in Dallas, was treated at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas. By October 4, Duncan's condition had deteriorated from "serious but stable" to "critical". On October 8, Duncan died of Ebola. The other three cases diagnosed in the United States as of October 2014 were". http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebola_virus_cases_in_the_United_States Again, Trying to blame the Democrats, at least at this point, doesn't hold water. At this point, it's a Republican scare tactic. More fear mongering over something that no one knows yet. Gotta rile up that base. At this point, over nothing. |

He just happened to have it in his pocket? Yeah, right.
Trump inadvertently reveals more of US-Mexico migrant deal "Washington (AFP) - US President Donald Trump revealed Tuesday that Mexico agreed to take stronger legal action to halt Central American migrants if its initial efforts to stem the flow don't show results in 45 days". http://time.com/5604832/donald-trump-mexico-tariffs-immigration/ This sounds like another version of Trump's "agreement" with North Korea: a lot of loose languages vaguely describing some rather hazy future contingencies. Like the Korea "deal," this isn't an agreement between nations...it's a deal memorandum...an agreement to agree. Nothing more. Political posturing, but no real political effect...like most things Trump does. Reminds me of McCarthy waving a paper screaming "I have here in my hand a list of 25 Communists" The next week it would be the same dog and pony show with different numbers. Congress has ratified absolutely nothing when it comes to this. This is most likely another Trump lie. But, we will see. |

why do they seem to avoid a normal woman? they say they don't want drama yet seek dramatic younger women with nothing but their looks going for them. What's normal? I've dated women my age. I've dated younger women. The woman I've been seeing for a good while now is younger than me by 20 years. She's 37. And so far I've been with this one longer than most I've been with. It seems to me, this is just my experience, Most of the women I've dated that are my age, all they seem to care about is what I have. Many of the women my age, by the 6th, maybe 8th date they are already telling me how they want me to spend my money on them. When a woman starts that with me she winds up getting kicked to the curb. But so far the younger women are interested in me. They actually want to spend time with me and it doesn't matter where we go or what we do. We don't have to go anywhere or do anything. She says she is content just being with me. I don't know why it's always been this way with me. It just always has. The woman I'm with now, I've been with her a little over a year. And not one time has she ever mentioned selling my shop or my land. Not one time has a younger woman I was dating ever tried to tell me what they wanted me to do with my "stuff". The last woman I dated that was my age, she thought she could tell me what I was going to do about my grown son. How I shouldn't spend my money on my sons. And how we were going to sell all my stuff and use the money to travel and take her places she wanted to go and see. I just don't seem to have these problems with younger women. You can believe me when I say, I've met some doozies. (older.) There have been a few goofy minded younger women that have come and gone in my life. But when I stop and think about it, I've had more trouble and aggravation out of women my age. One last thing. I don't mean this to be insulting. But it's just the truth as I've seen it. Many times in my life dating younger and older I have found that the younger woman has less emotional baggage than the older woman. The older a woman is usually more withdrawn. Many of them seem hard to reach. Some still run around with their heads in the clouds. Some seem to have these high minded ways. They can find 15 reasons not to date this guy. Nothing is good enough. I even came across one that tried to compare me to her dead husband all the time. Nothing I did was right or good enough. "Tom" would have done it differently. Emotional baggage. Many younger women haven't had to go through as much crap. Hence, less emotional baggage. More dateable. Just my experience. |

Trump once again stands against his own CIA. He doesn't deserve the office he holds. If you will stand with a dictator against your own country, what does that make you? He is a traitor against his own country. And like many other things with Trump, he is wide open and blatant about it. He doesn't try to hide the yellow running down his back.
Trump promises Kim Jong Un protection from CIA spying "President Trump promised he wouldn’t allow the CIA to use spies against North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un after reports surfaced that Kim’s half brother had been a U.S. intelligence asset before he was assassinated in Malaysia". http://news.yahoo.com/trump-promises-kim-jong-un-protection-from-cia-spying-184047425.html |

Trump 'asked aides to deny polls showing him losing to Biden', report says
"Trump has told his aides to publicly deny the internal polling that shows him behind Joe Biden in key 2020 states, according to reports. The reported instructions followed after a poll of 17 states was conducted for Mr. Trump by pollster Tony Fabrizio and then leaked. The polls showed Mr. Trump behind Mr. Biden in some important states for his re-election prospects, but it is not clear which states were identified in the internal polling". http://news.yahoo.com/trump-asked-aides-deny-polls-154941633.html?.tsrc=jtc_news_index More of Trumps childish name calling. Donald Trump calls Joe Biden a 'dummy' as he heads to Iowa "Preparing to hold dueling events in Iowa, President Donald Trump is employing schoolyard taunts for his leading Democratic rival, former Vice President Joe Biden. Trump called Biden "a loser" and "a dummy" as he left the White House Tuesday". http://news.yahoo.com/trump-calls-biden-dummy-heads-182242406.html?.tsrc=jtc_news_index Former Bush, Reagan EPA heads warn on Trump rollbacks "WASHINGTON (AP) — Environmental Protection Agency heads under three previous Republican presidents joined their Democratic counterparts Tuesday in telling lawmakers they were concerned by the Trump administration's rapid rollbacks of environmental protections". http://www.apnews.com/492f1497b04e4113af8f0b2b955a6671 This is No Way to Win a Trade War with China "Beijing is preparing its people for hardship and explaining the necessity of a protracted national struggle against Washington. This is No Way to Win a Trade War with China There is little dispute that China engages in unfair and often predatory practices to protect and promote its domestic industries. Yet if the Trump administration’s diagnosis of U.S.-China economic relations is correct, its remedy has been roundly rejected. Most observers believe the U.S. resort to unilateral tariffs will fail to achieve its intended objectives and will harm the U.S. economy as much as China’s. Furthermore, this episode may have the negative long-term effect of strengthening China’s confidence that it will prevail in future bilateral tests of will". http://nationalinterest.org/feature/no-way-win-trade-war-china-62072 ' I'm done with him': Nancy Pelosi reacts to Donald Trump's comments she is 'nasty ... horrible person' "I’m done with him,” the California Democrat said Tuesday. “I don’t even want to talk about him.” Pelosi, speaking at a fiscal summit sponsored by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, brushed aside questions about Trump’s remarks last week that she is a “nasty, vindictive, horrible person.” Trump lashed out at Pelosi during a Fox News interview in Normandy, France, in response to reports that she had told members of her caucus that she’d rather see him in prison than impeached". http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/06/11/nancy-pelosi-trumps-insults-fox-news-im-done-him/1417281001/ She is doing the right thing here.

Another act of the far right propaganda machine. They are scared of Biden.
Fox News Stars Begin Pushing Rumors About Joe Biden’s Health "One month after Joe Biden announced his run for president, several Fox News stars have already begun quietly pushing rumors that the 76-year-old ex-veep is in poor health. Since the end of May, Fox Business Network and Fox News star Lisa “Kennedy” Montgomery and Fox News prime-time host Sean Hannity have speculated on-air, on at least four separate occasions, that the current Democratic presidential frontrunner is secretly dealing with health issues, often comparing his condition to illness-related conspiracy theories the network pushed about Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election. The Biden rumor-mongering seemingly began May 29, during the broadcast of Fox News’ afternoon gabfest The Five. While assessing Biden’s candidacy, Kennedy claimed to know Democratic operatives engaged in a whisper campaign about Biden’s health". http://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-stars-begin-pushing-rumors-about-joe-bidens-health |

One thing I loathe is liers, lie spreaders and tail toters.
Mexico denies Trump's claim of secret concessions in deal "WASHINGTON (AP) — Three days after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a deal with Mexico to stem the flow of migrants at the southern border, the two countries appear unable to agree on exactly what’s in it. Stung by criticism that the agreement mostly ramps up border protection efforts already underway, Trump on Monday hinted at other, secret agreements he says will soon be revealed. “We have fully signed and documented another very important part of the Immigration and Security deal with Mexico, one that the U.S. has been asking about getting for many years,” Trump wrote Monday, saying it would “be revealed in the not too distant future.” Not so, said Mexican Foreign Secretary Marcelo Ebrard, holding up a paper and pointing to the previously announced details". http://www.apnews.com/7bedd8e672dd4f6ca3ffe2b3fd78fe0f Trump cannot enter into any formal agreement with any foreign nation without ratification by Congress first. He can't do trade agreements like he claims unless Congress approves. Where is this signed, ratified deal he is talking about? There is none. It is the same type deal he made with little Kimmy and NK. In other words, no deal, just talk and photo ops for propaganda. How sad is it that I'm more inclined to believe the President of Mexico than the "President" of the United States. 3 surprising turns in the Trump economy "Since January, the Trump economy has earned a steady B in the Yahoo Finance Trumponomics Report Card. But there have been some notable changes in the underlying components of the Trump economy. Two are negative and one is positive, indicating possible trouble for President Donald Trump’s 2020 re-election bid if these trends continue". http://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/3-surprising-turns-in-the-trump-economy-191123783.html Maybe we should get ready for an even deeper screwing? "Trump threatened to raise tariffs on China again if President Xi Jinping doesn’t meet with him at the upcoming Group of 20 summit in Japan. Trump told reporters at the White House on Monday that he could impose tariffs of 25%, or “much higher than 25%” on $300 billion in Chinese goods. “We’ve never gotten 10 cents from China and now we’re getting a lot of money from China,” the president said". http://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/trump-says-apos-ll-raise-132125693.html |

Biden ahead of Trump by double digits in key state of Pennsylvania, poll finds
"Former Vice President Joe Biden, who is leading the pack of 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, has been buoyed by a message that he is the candidate best able to defeat President Donald Trump in a general election, and a new poll lends additional weight to that assumption. Biden leads Trump 53% to 42% in the key state of Pennsylvania among registered voters, according to a poll released Wednesday by Quinnipiac University. Women favored Biden 60% to 36%, while men narrowly broke for Trump 45% to 49%. Biden led every age group (although he was only favored by two percentage points among those ages 50-64). He was narrowly the choice of white voters (49% to 45%) and the overwhelming favorite among non-whites (70 to 27%). Trump had a strong lead among white men (54% to 41%) and whites without a college degree (56% to 38%)". http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2019/05/16/trump-down-biden-pennsyvania-more-than-10-quinnipiac-poll/3691646002/ |

Analysis: Trump an impolitic guest on trips abroad
"SHANNON, Ireland (AP) — Halfway through a summer set of four international trips, President Donald Trump has proven himself to be an impolitic guest, soaking up pomp and pageantry while leaving behind hosts he scorched despite their best efforts to favor the president with flattery. Trump on Friday wrapped up five days in Europe that, much like his stay in Japan two weeks earlier, showed how his “America First” foreign policy mixed with his “Me First” Twitter habit have made him an unpredictable partner for America’s allies, who continue to grapple with how to manage the president and fortify economic and strategic ties with the United States. Time after time, diplomatic niceties fell by the wayside as the president contradicted and undermined his hosts". http://apnews.com/768b59297e8d4a55998839411490562f DOJ offers to share Mueller documents to avoid House action "WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department said Tuesday it is willing to provide the House Intelligence Committee with documents from special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, as long as the panel agrees not to take any action against Attorney General William Barr. The unusual request comes after the committee’s chairman, Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California, warned that the committee would take an unspecified “enforcement action” against Barr or the Justice Department after they refused to hand over an unredacted version of Mueller’s report and other documents related to the Russia investigation that shadowed Donald Trump’s presidency for nearly two years". http://apnews.com/d222912fe25147978255da4453c5d86e |

Trump lashes out after New York Times casts doubt on his Mexico tariff deal
"President Trump ripped into the New York Times after the newspaper questioned his new deal with Mexico to avoid the tariffs he threatened to impose in retaliation to illegal immigration. On Friday, Trump announced an agreement between the U.S. and Mexico that “indefinitely suspended” tariffs that were scheduled to hit all imported Mexican goods on Monday. The “U.S.-Mexico Joint Declaration,” released by the State Department, outlined measures that would be taken up by Mexico to reduce the surge of immigrants on their way to the U.S., including the “deployment of its National Guard throughout Mexico, giving priority to its southern border.” “But the Mexican government had already pledged to do that in March during secret talks in Miami between Kirstjen Nielsen, then the secretary of homeland security and Olga Sanchez, the Mexican secretary of the interior,” the New York Times reported, pointing out that Mexico had already agreed to several other aspects of the deal months before Trump’s tariff threat". http://news.yahoo.com/trump-lashes-out-after-nyt-article-casts-doubt-on-his-alleged-mexico-tariff-deal-160341066.html Other news outlets reported several days ago that much of what Mexico was now doing to curb migration had been planned for weeks and under implementation long before Trump "threatened" tariffs. This is not just an NYT story, although they may have more in-depth sources. In other words, the whole episode seems to be just a PR trick by Trump so he can take credit for what others have done. So ask yourself, does that seem within his character? |
