He makes my head hurt.

It’s OK for the press to work together, collude, collaborate, talk, cite each other.

It’s not OK for presidential candidates to work with foreign states to hack servers, change votes, provide funding or other help, to disrupt elections, undermine democracy, and elect the candidate the foreign state prefers.

He is so jealous of Emmanuel Macron and the military parade he received at his inauguration. Coupled with this article, what an embarrassment our president is:

According to Politico, Trump also struggles to grasp the concept of time zones and aides have to remind him on a "constant basis" as he attempts to call other world leaders at awkward hours.

Jesus Christ.

Vanity Fair is reporting Trump has told advisers he wants the DOJ to arrest Omarosa.

It'd be funny except how it highlights, particularly in conjunction with the Brennan security clearance stuff, that he would use his power as president to happily imprison or otherwise punish anyone who dares not fall into line for him.

lol at the WH response because we all believe Macron wants to get on the phone with 45.

Revoke my security clearance, too, Mr. President

William H. McRaven, a retired Navy admiral, was commander of the U.S. Joint Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014. He oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid in Pakistan that killed al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

For some reason my brain read "advisors" as "advertisers" and I was quite confused.

How are the things listed in this thread true?! I didn't realize it was even possible for a grown adult to be this stupid.

[pixy0stix]

I can't formulate a pithy response to the cost of the military parade. What a fucking waste.

[aliciabella]

I feel like he has a list of " change of subjects" in his back pocket. He needed a change from the Omaraso shit so here we are. The media falls for it every time.

I saw someone on Twitter point out that the bin Laden raid and President Obama's White House Correspondents Dinner roast of Trump were in the same week, and Trump is thereby going after everyone who was in the Situation Room. 






Also, was this posted already?


Putin Ally Tweeted Brennan’s Security Revocation Two Days Before The White House Knew About It 

hillreporter.com/putin-ally-tweeted-brennans-security-revocation-two-days-before-the-white-house-knew-about-it-5882


Specifically, a Russian billionaire with known connections to Vladimir Putin tweeted out a list of names and declared their security clearance void. John Brennan was on that list. Two days later, Trump announced he was revoking Brennan’s security clearance. Three weeks later, the American public was informed.



...

However, it was announced two days before that, on July 24th, on Twitter by none other than the aforementioned Russian operative, Artem Klyushin, via his verified account.



The Bing auto-translation of the tweet is as follows:



Former CIA directors John Brennan and Michael Hayden, former FBI director James [Comey] and his deputy Andrew McCabe, former director of the National Intelligence James Clapper, ex-adviser on Homeland Susan Rice are forgiven for access to classified materials. Welcome to the real world!



The New York Times published a list of ten individuals whose security clearance Trump is reviewing. In addition to Brennan, they include every other name in the tweet from Klyushin — James Clapper, Susan Rice, Andrew McCabe, Michael Hayden and James Comey — as well as Sally Yates, Peter Strozk, Lisa Page, and Bruce Ohr. All are people who have criticized Trump or served in a capacity he could see as undermining his presidency or opposing him politically.



ETA: just saw this:

I'm thinking of all the other things that could be done with $90 million and getting mad.

[eclaires]

Considering my brother frequently uses my amazon account to order gear he needs that the US government doesn’t provide I feel confident in saying the military would probably rather have needs met than a parade.

Sorry, just practicing for the eventual invasion by Russia... 

There was a WaPo link but I thought that was the one you needed to subscribe to see but apparently not.

My money is that the jury will hang and then the government will have to decide whether they want to do this all again.
