Jeff Sessions is a great man, a big man, a great big man and implying that he small is smallish and oafish of you and a distraction about all that has to be done in this nation to hear the will of the people and such accusations are baseless, he's big, really big, huge even. The PeOTIS will not stand by idle having his cabinet members, the greatest cabinet members ever to be put into a cabinet in the recorded history of American greatness, defaced.

it would appear FOX News is going all-in on the younger alt-racist group...Jesse Waters got a weekly program, Tucker Carlson got a 9pm slot and Sean Hannity remains front and center. Trying to stay current. Bill O better step up his boring racism and make it POP.

Shepard Smith appears to be sticking around because they need one hour where a Southern gentleman makes the pain go away.

Leahy is not a fan of Mr Sessions

booker to testify against sessions tomorrow. first time a sitting senator has testified against another for a cabinet pos.

sessions is small, sour spuds. Let him get confirmed; he'll suck so loudly, & so quickly, at the job that he'll have to be fired.

Save energy to take down some of the bigger, more odious noms, the ones who've barely begun to complete their disclosure documentation

You are wrong on Sessions. You continually underestimate Trump, and the only way Sessions loses his job is either through him or impeachment by a GOP controlled Congress, neither of those are likely, regardless of how much he sucks.

In lieu of that hope and a prayer, you put Sessions in charge of the DoJ and FBI. He will have final say on whether an immigrant is deported or not, and a heavy hand in enforcement of the Voting Rights Act and mandatory minimums. His nomination has the potential to hurt Americans the most domestically.

there is no bigger, more odious nomination than jeff sessions for AG.

in order i would say sessions, pruitt, tillerson, mnuchin, devos, price, perry.

Pruitt is def #2. I agree Sessions is #1. He is terrible. He's simply been on the stage so long that people might not realize how disgusting he is.

I'm personally very pissed that Carson is nominated for HUD. It impacts lots of lives.

Agreed on Carson but unfortunately I don't see anyone putting up a fight.

ms devos and her husband have investments in some 250 companies registered to a single grand rapids michigan address.

lol rich people.

she has poured money into charter schools advocacy, winning legislative changes that have reduced oversight and accountability. about 80% of charter schools in michigan are operated by for-profit companies, far more than anywhere else.

she seems great!

by **pacino** » Tue Jan 10, 2017 09:45:20

Her hearing was delayed until the 17th

drumpf's presidency is an appalling process failure of our system of electing presidents. He's a human-shaped fungus. He has no business assuming the role. But you must trust me on this: I don't underestimate fungi, or bacteria, can do to a system

You're correct about Sessions. He'll fail at the job - in capital letters, in public, and said public will demand his ouster, and drumpf's already poor approval standing decline at a steeper rate, taking many of his mob's policy changes and congresspeople with it.

Sessions is weak already. He won't get stronger. Price is a bit similar. drumpf will almost certainly take office violating the Constitution; state AGs are prepared to begin gnawing on that bone, but that will take time.

Use what opportunity you have in confirmation hearings to take an arm or leg off Mnuchin, or Tillerson.

It's a scenario

by **JUburton** » Tue Jan 10, 2017 10:04:59

if i were a betting man id only bet on tillerson going down due to the russia thing. i dont see 3 senators coming on board for anyone else. maybe mnuchin.

Paul Ryan @SpeakerRyan
Democrats are trying to scare Americans into wanting #Obamacare. What's scary is the damage it's already done.

Notice how he doesn't provide any specifics on his damage assessment

What's scary, congressman, is that a pinhead like you has anything to do with even modifying any health policy affecting any living organism

He graduated from Yale and was the director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is wholly unqualified to head the department of housing and urban development, but he is intelligent.

The Dow starts the day down again, almost 39 point. The closer we get to Jan 20, the farther we regress from the (now) mystical 20K marker. The Trump effect with its smoke and mirrors is back tracking. Where are the tweets? Thanks Donald.

What if, and I'm grasping at straws here, but people contain multitudes and can be both intelligent and stupid at the same time, depending on the situation/topic?
