He only bans people that kill him in Ultima Online. Which I'm going to keep bringing up, forever.

I think there ought to be a DTMan gathering when UO inevitably goes offline.

Not filling that Supreme Court seat any time soon.

Hours after Drumpf fired acting attorney general Sally Yates for refusing to defend his executive order banning certain immigrants and refugees, Democrats lashed out during a hearing held to approve his choice to lead the Justice Department. Amid concerns with information provided by his picks to lead the departments of Health and Human Services and Treasury, Democrats did not show up at another Senate committee at all.

Note that first sentence there. The Attorney General, the head of the Department of Justice, called bullshit. Woohoo, gridlock. Then there's this gem:

“We did not inflict this kind of obstructionism on President Obama,” added Sen. Patrick J. Toomey (R-Pa.), the only other senator in the room.

Really? Is that why we only have eight justices? Because you fuckers didn't obstruct him?

Dipshit Drumpf's retarded executive order is now fucking over medical care for a select few Americans.

Dr. Kamal Fadlalla, a resident at Interfaith Medical Center in Brooklyn was supposed to return to the U.S. from his native Sudan on Sunday, his friend and colleague Dr. Menzin Khalid told ABC station WABC on Monday.

"He went home to visit his family. It had been a year and a half since he had seen his mom and his sister, so he thought now is a good time to go visit them," Khalid said.
...
Khalid said Fadlalla called him on Sunday and said, "I got my boarding pass to New York, and then I was informed by the airline company that my name has been called and I am not allowed to go."

But hell, we surely don't need more trained medical personnel in this country.

Frisco sues.

Tuesday's lawsuit alleges that the executive order violates the 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which states that powers not granted to the federal government should fall to the states.
...
"Dipshit Drumpf's executive order tries to turn city and state employees into federal immigration officers. That is unconstitutional," Herrera said.

Goddamn it. I've assimilated enough now that I too hate when people say Frisco or San Fran. It's isn't logical it just is. SF or The City are on the allowed list.

But yeah, I don't see this city doing anything but fighting every step of this presidency. Liberals with money have been hanging out at Haight and Ashbury waiting and hoping for a good injustice for years.

Also relevant. Trump WH shitting on one of my strongest stances - by GIVING INFOWARS PRESS CREDENTIALS FUUUUCK

SF or The City are on the allowed list.

"SF" sounds dumb. "The City" is even worse. It sounds like bad sci-fi.

Jones has promoted numerous conspiracy theories and false stories including the claim that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were perpetrated by the U.S. government and the allegation that the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre was a hoax done with actors.

Da fuq? Man, I wonder where this administration and this loon found common ground.

Corsi, like Jones, is a conspiracy theorist with a long history of pushing discredited attacks and allegations, including the complete falsehood that former President Barack Obama has a phony birth certificate.

Then we sir, are at an impasse. Because "Frisco" and "San Fran" sound like something a goat fucking dirt farmer would say.

Fine, I'm calling it Rice a Roni for now own.

SF could be Street Fighter, Sein Fein, San Fernando, etc. Pick something less ambiguous.

Sounds better than vowel-less SF.

But... do you get any of those things when you google SF?

Does google shopping not count as a google search? It's got the name right in there.

Trump nominated a Scalia-like conservative. I'm mostly pleased, and certainly more pleased than I would have been with Garland. He has some opinions with which I disagree, but dont they all? He's quite skeptical of government administrative power, which is nice.

I give it a thumbs up.

I don't like this guy, but all in all it's not as bad as I had expected it would be.

I half expected he might nominate Judge Judy.

I wonder who came up with this dude. Sure as shit not Drumpf.

Either the Heritage Foundation or another conservative (but more Libertarian) group I cannot recall. If you just read articles about him you'll find it.

Fuck, no.

The Drumpf administration has asked Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. to lead a panel on reform of higher education regulations, the leader of the evangelical Christian school said Tuesday.

Just fuck no.

So Pelosi hates the new nominee.

Then Dipshit Drumpf manages to immediately tank any credibility he got from throwing that name up there. For the love of god, take his fucking twitter account away.

He already said no to the job DeVos is going for. (and with some horrible irony, is actually way more qualified for the job)

I covered the other topic with you elsewhere.

I mean, GORDON could because he owns the board, I guess. But I don't think he'd do that.

Actually, the real history of this board

I half expected he might nominate Judge Judy.

How fantastic would it have been had he trolled the left and MSM with a rumor like that first?

So Pelosi hates the new nominee.

Is that really news? Trump could shit gold bricks that cure all your ills when you touch them and Pelosi would hate it.

If he includes religion, you're right. If he leaves it out, whatever.

If the guy says "college is too expensive, not accessible enough, runs unconstitutional trials based on one person's word, and doesn't actually train people to do a real job" then I'll slap a "Job Well Done" sticker on him.

Fuck college.
