'work requirements' for Medicaid passed the PA House yesterday. ugh

Trump has gone Florida Man on twitter this morning. LOL. Stepping on himself, screwing his Stormy silence defense, shatting on his Comey firing with new truth, etc. There are not enough day care workers in FL.

the scariest thing is using 'breeding' as a term, pure fascist rhetoric against immigrants

McConnell and the republicans are protecting trump because trump is a republican.

There is a freaky article about Hanity's access to Trump in the WaPo. TL;DR is that he has a virtual desk at the WH, and wields a lot more power and influence then many actual staff.

Hey, he had not had his coffee yet, give him a break:

Apr 18, 2018 04:59:07 AM There is a Revolution going on in California. Soooo many Sanctuary areas want OUT of this ridiculous, crime infested & breeding concept. Jerry Brown is trying to back out of the National Guard at the Border, but the people of the State are not happy. Want Security & Safety NOW!

what is "breeding concept"?

lack of commas and coherency... he is saying that sanctuary cities are a concept that is both crime infested and crime breeding

I actually took it to mean a that there is a subversive plan to immigrate, reproduce, and take over. Europeans have long used this as an anti-immigration call with Eastern Europeans coming to the West, having children that are EU citizens, then using that to pry open the good social programs and benefits. It is sort of a version of "chain migration". While it was applied to Slavic nations when I first heard it, it was later applied to Turks, and I am sure it is branded on Syrians. Basically anyone immigrating will corrupt your happy version of society and thus destroy your life.

I think he means illegals come here to have American babies so they can stay and get benefits.

I guess DiM has me on ignore.

GOLF TIME: Trump and Abe arrive at golf course in West Palm Beach 8:32a.

“Golf is not on the official schedule,” an admin official told reporters Fri.

Trump yesterday: “We’re going to sneak out tomorrow morning and play a round of golf, if possible.”

No one is actually surprised, are they?

eli5, why do republicans have such a hard on for Hillary still? I can't remember a losing presidential candidate getting SO MUCH attention this long after an election. Referring to a headline I just saw: "Republicans Call For DOJ Investigation Into Comey, Clinton, Lynch, Strzok And Page"

Is this just being butthurt that Trump and all the others are under investigation? Is the idea to just try to deflect attention from his problems?

Yes, they've conditioned the base to hate hate hate her, so "HILLARY!" is "SQUIRREL!" to them. So he will never stop talking about her.

I wish Comey would shut up. And I really hope he's telling the truth literally about EVERYTHING. This is shaping up as a public showdown over whose version of events is the truth. If any part of Comey's story can be proven false, public opinion and support for Mueller's investigation will take a hit.
