OMG have you been living under a rock? Just read the past few weeks of posts on UHH and all of your questions have been answered regarding Trump's disregard for checks and balances, separation of powers, attacking the independence and the authority of the judiciary. Attempts to delegitimize the independent media have discussed for days and days. You don't remember Trump vowing to jail Hillary? "Lock her up!" doesn't ring a bell?

You're competing for the Queen of Denial Award, aren't you?

Hahahahaha! Nice Trumpsplaining, Steve. Of course, I guess you already forgot the the federal judiciary ruled some of his EOs unconstitutional.

By the way, it appears that you don't understand the definition of f*****m. Attacking a foreign country that was not an immediate threat, like your Bush/Chaney criminal duo did, is wrong and immoral, but is not the definition of f*****m. F*****m is when a leader acts like a dictator and ignores the law and disrespects checks and balances, and moves to suppress and repress dissent - such as attacking and attempting to destroy an independent media - or threatening to jail your political opposition...Ooops! Your Orange Hitler is trying to do both of these things!

There you go again with your "Mommy, he did it first!" routine.

Steve, this thread has nothing to do with Obama.


Even more astoundingly ironic is that you brought up Obama's use of EOs, complaining that he was avoiding the more democratic process of working with Congress...even while your Orange Hitler hero has been running the country with EOs like a dictator for his entire presidency so far!

Steve, your irony, hypocrisy, and double standards are showing again...


Since you refused to give me an answer regarding "Tell me, is there ANY f*****tic behavior that the Trump administration might do that would be over the line for you? Where is your line? Do you even have a line?"...I'll have to assume that the answer is 'no', you don't have a line that Trump can cross with his f*****tic behavior that you would object to.

Steve, you try Oh So Hard with your "but but but Mommy, he did it first!", and all you ever come up with is false equivalencies - in this case an email that described something that never actually happened in the real world.

What's interesting, Steve, is that you right wingers NEVER take the high road. You guys ALWAYS take the low road of ethics and morals, and then when caught, you always trot out the "Mommy, he did it first!" excuse.

Not surprising that you see nothing wrong with Trump's dictator-like behavior. Not surprising in the least. Tell me, is there ANY f*****tic behavior that the Trump administration might do that would be over the line for you? Where is your line? Do you even have a line?

The time for normalizing, dissembling, and explaining away Donald Trump has long since passed. The barring of respected journalistic outlets from the White House briefing is so far beyond the norms and traditions that have governed this republic for generations, that they must be seen as a real and present threat to our democracy. These are the dangers presidents are supposed to protect against, not create.

For all who excused Mr. Trump's rhetoric in the campaign as just talk, the reckoning has come. I hope it isn't true, but I fear Mr. Trump is nearing or perhaps already beyond any hope of redemption. And now the question is will enough pressure be turned to all those who enable his antics with their tacit encouragement. There has been a wall of unbending support from virtually every Republican in Congress, and even some Democrats. Among many people, this will be seen as anything approaching acceptable. And mind you, talk is cheap. No one needs to hear how you don't agree with the President. What are you going to do about it? Do you maintain that an Administration that seeks to subvert the protections of our Constitution is fit to rule unchecked? Or fit to rule at all?

This is an emergency that can no longer be placed solely at the feet of President Trump, or even the Trump Administration. This is a moment of judgement for everyone who willingly remains silent. It is gut check time, for those in a position of power, and for the nation.

Feds do not have to join unions. The can not have union health plans. Only union members get union plans. They get a menu to choose from.
The do not have to pay dues. They get regular benefits. Vacation - sick - holidays.

My understanding is, that they only get "fired" if they commit a crime. They can be t***sferred to another office.
Many have a 90 day probationary period. Pass the 90 days & your home for duration until you resign or they offer early retirement.

And you get health benefits that general public wish they could have.

Remember what the pols say - "do as we say, not as we do"!

Lets give all families in US, the same medical benefits that the feds get?

In Case You Missed It
The US Senate v**ed 51 to 48:

1. To end coverage for preexisting conditions, veterans benefits, and aid to rural hospitals.

2. To remove discrimination protection for women in healthcare.

3. Against the provision allowing children to remain on their parent's insurance till the age of 26.

4. To cut off funding for the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

5. Against ACA contraceptive coverage and maternity care provision.

6. To direct committees to send budget legislation to defund and repeal the Affordable Care Act.

For those who get health insurance through work, no pre-existing conditions. Lifetime caps for coverage are back for everyone.

Real and disastrous actions are being taken that will affect more than just the 20-30 million people who will lose their health care coverage and the 3 million people who will lose their jobs.

Despite their assertions of this being an action to "repeal and replace," no viable alternative plan has been proposed. The US House v**es Friday. As of this moment, no replacement exists.

Apparently, Speaker Ryan has had his phones cut off because of the volume of calls, so here is his mailing address:
1233 Longworth HOB
Washington, D.C. 20515
Fax: (202) 225-3393

COPY AND PASTE THIS.

Hahahahahaha! Right off the bat, you cite a laughable (non-credible) source - the NY Post tabloid for your #1 claim that the unemployment report was f**ed to get Obama re-elected.

Obviously you do not understand the definition of "credible". The NY Post is a laughing stock of journalism - a right wing fringe supermarket tabloid which posts f**e stories from "unnamed sources". I guess having you look up the definition of "credible" was a waste of time.

This silly article doesn't prove anything. It makes unproven accusations using anonymous sources. Please have someone explain to you why unproven accusations from anonymous sources don't mean s**t. I'm not going to waste my time going through the rest of your silly, hysterical, fringe accusations that have no credible evidence because you obviously do not understand the definitions of either "credible" or "evidence".

I seem to remember we've had similar conversations like this in the past when you attempted to cite The National Enquirer as a source. Remember that? You still haven't learned anything about how to find credible sources yet, it appears.
