In a startling political move, South Jersey Democratic power broker George Norcross III went to court Thursday seeking a restraining order against Gov. Phil Murphy and the administration to shut down the investigation of a special governor’s task force into the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.

The filing by the insurance executive also sought to halt any further public hearings and to stop the task force from issuing additional subpoenas.

I am not sure why Trump's D-Day speech is getting so much praise. Is it because he stuck to the text and slowly read it like he'd never seen it before VS go bonkers with political attacks and name calling? To me it was a rather simple speech delivered with hardly any emotion.

While hundreds of veterans gathered in France on Thursday waiting for commemorations to mark the 75th anniversary of D-Day to begin, President Trump sat nearby and joked with Fox News host Laura Ingraham about how he was “holding” up the ceremony to do an interview with her.


Keeping it classy.

It was later revealed that the 15-minute delay was caused not by Trump’s affinity for Fox News, as many had believed, but French President Emmanuel Macron’s late arrival.


Good news for our place on the world stage.

“Listen to those incredible people back there,” Trump said, motioning towards the ceremony stage. “These people are so amazing, and what they don’t realize is that, I’m holding them up because of this interview. But that’s because it’s you.”


But of course he thought it was about him.

If he knew Macron was late, that is a harmless joke to make someone feel important. If Obama made the same joke in the midst of a delay "We're delayed because I'm talking to you," then no one would care.

@realDonaldTrump
For all of the money we are spending, NASA should NOT be talking about going to the Moon - We did that 50 years ago. They should be focused on the much bigger things we are doing, including Mars (of which the Moon is a part), Defense and Science!

Did he really say that?

Dude thinks US territories aren’t part of the US but that the Earth’s moon is part of Mars.

Using the moon as a kind of gathering spot is a part of all but the most aggressive Mars plans.

Moon exploration is part of the mission to Mars, which doesn't make a ton of sense when you include the first half of his tweet of not going to the moon, but the Mars (of which the moon is a part) is fine as a stand alone.

I'm beginning to think Twitter is not the best way to state policy positions.

White House officials barred a State Department intelligence agency from submitting written testimony this week to the House Intelligence Committee warning that human-caused climate change could be “possibly catastrophic.” The move came after State officials refused to excise the document’s references to federal scientific findings on climate change.


Same same.

Mexico concessions to tariff threats was all stuff agreed to a while ago. Nothing new gained from the tariff threats- it was just posturing. Go figure.

"Some of you may have heard or read that President Trump supposedly held up the entire D-Day ceremony in order to do this interview with me. That is patently false. Its fake news".

- Laura Ingraham doing what she does best

Yeah, we did hear that....straight from the ass's mouth.

Man, DJT called into CNBC to shove back on their reporting, lay waste to the Chamber of Commerce head, preview other tariffs, smack the fed, etc. Time to restrict viewing to like Cartoon Network.
