just so many instances of this administration and it's supporters demonstrating that they have no respect for the law and ethics in governmentComment -

Thankfully we’ve got a great President who donates his paycheck to charity and not ask for a raise.Originally posted by Hareeba!
Just tried a bit of research on this.
He's given his first seven quarterly paychecks to: National Park Service, Department of Education, Dept of Health and Human Services, Dept of Transportation, Dept of Veterans Affairs, Small Business Administration and National Institution on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.
Correct me if I'm wrong but they are all government agencies, not charities?
I wouldn't have thought donations to them would be tax deductible?
So that probably accounts for the fact that the payments appear to have all amounted to $78,333.
As I understand it, the salary is $400,000 p.a. i.e. $100,000 /quarter.
So it looks like $21,667 is being deducted for tax?
Seems like a rather low tax rate doesn't it?
And that tax paid would be available to him as a credit in his tax return?
So in that case he's not really giving away 100% of his salary as claimed is he?
So nobody seems to have any disagreement with those thoughts.
Well that would then mean the pickle
is guilty of lying yet again in saying the buffoon gives it to charity
Furthermore he narrowly escapes being called out for lying on a technicality only as he said "paycheck" rather than "salary".
But there is still another lie in his short post "a great President"
Folks, this pickle has now been found to have posted lies and fake news on numerous occasions.
He still has a bit of ground to make up on his cult leader in that regard but he is trying.Comment -

The President spent $3.6 million in taxpayer money to stay at his Doonbeg golf resort while on a diplomatic visit to Europe.
The golf resort has already experienced a spike in bookings.
This is a taxpayer-funded promotion of the President’s business.

"In a May 29, 2019 interview, Ms. Kellyanne Conway, Counselor to the President, reportedly scoffed at her responsibilities under the Hatch Act and ridiculed its enforcement by asserting, 'Let me know when the jail sentence starts.'”
So, this administration now condones all their staff getting publicly involved in partisan politics.
What then is the use of the Hatch Act?
Which btw has twice been upheld as constitutionally valid by the Supreme Court.
This administration is NOT above the law.
Congress has to act to make them accountable.Comment -

WHALES, OMG.
When H posted this an hour or so ago, I had no idea what he meant. I didn't know about the WHALES comment. Dear Jesus above this guy might be almost as stupid as Dwightieanne. You know dwightieanne can not use a ruler and didn't know where the Russian revolution was fought . He also does not know what 5% means and he can't add or subt fractions. These are all true statements.
I think it is possible DT is almost as stupid as diwghtieanne. I remember two years ago I claimed DT in no fckin way has a legitimate degree from Penn. "im fckin possible". the idiots on this forum argued with me, I told them listen you know how stupid you are, you might be smarter than DT. I am writing the truth, DT could possibly be ALMOST as stupid as Dwightieanne.
Not only do we have an incompetent liar in the WH, we have a president ALMOST as stupid as Dwightieanne. Go ahead ask dwightieanne to do a simple addition of fractions. He can't.Comment -
if we survive these four years these years will be fodder for comedians for decades, maybe centuries. if you can make a future wager on who will be considered the worst president in the history of universe, take as much as you can get on DT. It might take 20 years to collect but it is like golden money.
YOU CAN'T LOSE.Comment -
you know what is really funny, dwightieanne right now is thinking WHALES so what. what is the big deal, he knows something must be wrong because I am laughing but he has no clue what it is. I would wager my testicles on it. And my voice would not change. He won't know what that means either.Comment -
hey dwightieanne, why not answer the above and then I can give you a few simple fractions to add. come on make a liar out of me, answer and add some fractions. prove to me you have an intellect higher than a toddler.Comment -
guess not, just imagine for 30 seconds you are as stupid as dwightieanne or DT, and for 10 years you must pretend you work, you must pretend you have a clue about politics/economics, you must pretend you were HS QB when you never even attended HS. Do you know this story?
oh yeah he claimed to be a HS qb, I immediately knew it was BS. I asked him, hey how many players take the field, he did not know. I said hey how do you throw a slant pass, didn't know, how about a screen pass, didn't know. This man lies about nothing, he BS about nothing, do you know anybody else who owns that MO?
back to his pretend, his entire life is pretend. poor dwightieanne.Comment -

So you're supporting a policy of not permitting the press to ask questions of the administration?Originally posted by itchypickle
That does seem to fit well with the buffoon's statements about listening only to him and ignoring what the free press might be reporting.
Well on the way to autocracy and elimination of the "enemy of the people"!
Oh well, guess we need be thankful for 240 odd years of democracy.Comment -
Serious question to the resident cultists.
Is there a line Individual 1 can't cross before he loses your support?
It's clear that his actions and words in the past few weeks indicate that he believes the laws of the land don't apply to him and the White House.
So there is absolutely nothing that can stop him doing whatever he wants.
You lot okay with that?
Or is there something at which you'd draw the line?
Please tell.Comment -

No moron. You do realize the press meets with the WH comms team and has access during the day and interviews or when they stop on the way to chat and record. Also papered statements and docs are mate available regarding staff changes or policy speeches coming etc. how many times does the Pres himself stop to answer on the way to AF1 or during meetings with foreign officials visiting? Seriously...you’re ill dude. Spokesmen and women from other departments hold briefings weekly as well but the nets only carry them when spicy conflict and arguing takes place but you can click on the video and watch at anytime if you want.Originally posted by Hareeba!
Like a 9 year old let me put it simplistically for you. 40 years ago before email iPhones and streaming and all the cable news options yes a weekly briefing to inform the public and press about important issues was a necessity. Today....before it even airs it’s info available on twitter feeds and websites of news companies to view....the briefings now are nothing more than grandstanding. Entertainment for politicos. I’ve even seen where msnbc starts to cover them because and op ed was written by the WAPO people on anonymity about Russia and when it starts Sanders or Spicer would read off the things going on and then y’all about policy and the network working cut away to “monitor” it until Welker or Ryan would get in a cat fight then they’d rush back to show it. It’s all show....periodComment -
They know man. They just pretend they don't. Trump talks to the press and the people like no other president in history. Countless times he talks to the press on the WH lawn as he is heading to the helicopter. For long periods as well. Plus, he talks directly to the people via twitter.Originally posted by itchypickle
Fake News is the enemy of the people is what he has always said. He is right. The fake News people hate that he calls them out for what they are and that he bypasses them a lot via social media. They are like 9 year olds and those are their supporters for the large part.Comment -

Putin doesn’t “like” any leader of the U.S. this is why he acted nice to Obama and accepted the Hillary reset visit then allowed Russian intel to be given to the “dirty dossier” and now has his soldiers try and ambush US forces and get destroyed and now doing close contact chicken in the ocean as well as in the air to provoke. Wish you guys understood these moves.Originally posted by chico2663so trueComment -

This is tantamount to the President announcing that laws don’t apply to his administration. It’s not just wrong, it’s dangerous.

"If Ms. Conway were any other federal employee, her multiple violations of the law would almost certainly result in removal from her federal position by the Merit Systems Protection Board."
OSC's Kellyanne Conway report matters because it exposes the administration's disrespect for laws that lack effective enforcement mechanisms.
Hatch Act violations are easy to understand and easy to detect.
Violations of other laws can be harder to understand and easier to hide.

To put this in perspective: federal employees can’t even have something displayed in their office that shows their preference for a certain candidate but @KellyannePolls is out there making campaign speeches in front of the WH.
