If I'm Paul Ryan and establishment Republicans, I wouldn't be so giddy because they're in for a rude awakening.

I saw one piece of speculation where that the 'establishment' republicans didn't denounce him after the primary so they could preserve down-ballot, and now that they have a majority they're gonna fight him every step of the way. Would be funny watching a president get support from NEITHER party.

VP of sales at Ivanka Trump Jewelry sent an email to style journalists hawking a bracelet Ivanka wore on 60 Minutes, hoping for coverage of it.

apparently brains of the operation Jared Kushner is/was unaware that no west-wing-housed Presidential staff stay when a President leaves

maybe he was wondering about kitchen staff

I would think so. Say you are placing the most horrible person imaginable in charge, wait for backlash, then "compromise" with the 2nd worst person imaginable.


But nothing would surprise me.

I'm waiting for the terrorist attack, which 75 years from now when the classified info becomes available, we'll find out the russians did.

The idea that Rudy could be SoS is actually a move that is more tragic then considering him for AG. IT actually opens concerns about post that I have not thought much about which could be filled with unqualified, not just under- but un-, morons. Just consider who his team does not know, and has no idea how to fill, so it will go to some chump hack with no previous experience.

FARC and the Colombian government have agreed to a new peace deal. This time they have to give reparations.

They might send it to Congress instead of a referendum this time.

In 2015, there were 257 incidents of anti-Muslim bias compared to 154 incidents the prior year, an increase of 67 percent. The total is second only to the surge in hate crimes following the 9/11 terror attacks, when 481 incidents against Muslims were reported in 2001.

The increase could be due, in part, to increased reporting by victims as well as better reporting and tracking by law enforcement agencies, although the number of all law enforcement agencies sending their data to the FBI decreased about 3 percent between 2014 and 2015.

Overall, the number of reported hate crimes increased from 5,479 in 2014 to 5,850 last year, and religious-based hate crimes increased by 23 percent. Jews and Jewish institutions remain the most frequent target of religious-based hate crimes, representing 53 percent of all those reported. Crimes against Jews increased about 9 percent.
