Trump is not planning to divest, he'll just hand over day-to-day operations to his two adult sons Uday and Qusay and Ivanka and Jared will 'advise' Don.

Perfectly normal, perfectly healthy.

Department of Labor to be renamed "Department of Slavery & Indentured Servitude," but not until Congress passes "Americans Right to Work for Nothing Act."

Duterte also believe rape is pretty much ok. He and the Donald have a lot in common.

this guy just KNOWS there was voter fraud in North Carolina:

"There’s not doubt in our minds that significant voting fraud took place in Bladen County, which has now been referred to the U.S. Attorney," Dallas Woodhouse, the executive director of the North Carolina Republican Party, told TPM on Tuesday. "We believe that the new U.S. attorney that’ll be appointed by Mr. Trump will look at this and potentially send people to jail.”

Dallas Woodhouse, the executive director of the North Carolina Republican Party, on Tuesday said that although the state elections board did not throw out any votes from a GOP complaint about absentee ballots in Bladen County, a U.S. attorney appointed by Trump may find wrongdoing in the case.


Woodhouse claimed in a phone call with TPM that there was "an illegal absentee ballot harvesting mill" in Bladen County and said there was an "attempt to steal" the soil and water district supervisor race.

he may very well be right that someone in the Trump administration will bring this up again. That doesn't mean there actually was voter fraud, however.

A friend of mine had a Facebook write-in "campaign" for that position. It was mostly in jest but he ended up getting a couple hundred votes, coming in 2nd place and getting interviewed by the news. Its a different county in NC, though.

definitely worthwhile. Wild internal contradictions. talks about sexual harassment. lack of safe spaces. being bullied. fearing for her life for over 6 months. then pivoting and saying that her and Trump are "in a good place" now because she basically capitulated and gave into his power play of forcing her to grovel on hands at knees at the Trump Tower. Then to go into the direction of not liking PC Culture.

Terry 'pressed' on a few things but not nearly hard enough IMO.

There's an article in the ny times about conservatives on campuses asking for safe spaces for their views. Internal contradiction is strong.

that's what I was saying about r/TheDonald. a lot of these nerds literally voted for Trump bc they were tired of getting picked on on the internet (and I guess college) for their views.

have to love the mental gymnastics in this opinion piece he penned. he 1. doesn't want to pay his employees higher wages but also 2. thinks they shouldn't be accessing government benefits so easily. He wants to 'roll' them into a bigger EITC, which is another way to cut them. He wants to cut the programs that subsidizes his workers' low wages but not increase their hourly income!
