Alex Jones says 'form of psychosis' made him believe events like Sandy Hook massacre were staged

(The psychosis was due to chemicals in the drinking water placed there by the government)

Don's not having a good week now that his Off Shore Drilling EO has been tanked by a judge as unconstitutional.

by **thephan** » Sat Mar 30, 2019 19:02:48

FWIW, there is an LA time article that points out that a good chink of Don's "passeed laws", are either failed EO, or the EO is just hot garbage with his giant dope ass signature on it that translate into nothing actionable.

"chunk" , phan. I believe the word you are looking for is "chunk."

Yep swish, should have said: FWIW, there is an LA time article that points out that a good chick of (I'm a stupid racist) Don's "passed laws", are either failed EO, or the EO is just hot garbage with his giant dope ass signature on it that translate into nothing actionable.

I have every confidence you’ll get there eventually.

A whistle-blower working inside the White House has told a House committee that senior Trump administration officials granted security clearances to at least 25 individuals whose applications had been denied by career employees, the committee’s Democratic staff said Monday.

Ms. Newbold told the committee’s staff members that the clearance applications had been denied for a variety of reasons, including “foreign influence, conflicts of interest, concerning personal conduct, financial problems, drug use, and criminal conduct,” the memo said. The denials by the career employees were overturned, she said, by more-senior officials who did not follow the procedures designed to mitigate security risks.

VERY SURPRISING DEVELOPMENT

Doesn't matter.

It does matter. Or should matter. I'm just saying they get away with everything, so it doesn't matter.

by **JUburton** » Mon Apr 01, 2019 10:48:55

It all matters collectively and we will see that in November 2020!*

Rick "Healthcare Fraud" Scott is now in charge of coming up with an ACA replacement for the GOP.

by **thephan** » Mon Apr 01, 2019 17:47:10

It should matter, but I am sure we will be reminded that the president can both giveth and taketh away.

by **thephan** » Mon Apr 01, 2019 17:52:43

Sure, the president* is so committed to making the GOP the "healthcare party" that he handed his effort over to a guy who presided over a company that looted Medicare with both fists and a vacuum cleaner. Scott's company stole everything except the staplers and the break-room breadbox.

Thanks [url]=https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a27004159/republican-health-care-plan-rick-scott-trump-obamacare/Esquire[/url], but what?

Well say what you say, The Orlando Sentinel has your back:

Scott also was the CEO of the hospital company Columbia/HCA in the 1990s, who resigned four months after a federal inquiry into the company was made public. The company was later fined $1.7 billion in 2000 and 2007 for what was then the largest case of Medicare fraud in history.

Everybody agrees that ObamaCare doesn’t work. Premiums & deductibles are far too high - Really bad HealthCare! Even the Dems want to replace it, but with Medicare for all, which would cause 180 million Americans to lose their beloved private health insurance. The Republicans.....

...are developing a really great HealthCare Plan with far lower premiums (cost) & deductibles than ObamaCare. In other words it will be far less expensive & much more usable than ObamaCare. Vote will be taken right after the Election when Republicans hold the Senate & win.....

back the House. It will be truly great HealthCare that will work for America. Also, Republicans will always support Pre-Existing Conditions. The Republican Party will be known as the Party of Great HealtCare. Meantime, the USA is doing better than ever & is respected again!

I am looking forward to my great HealtCare, which apparently will not be voted on for another year and a half, but that time frame is only slightly longer than it took him to complete this series of tweets.
