what if they want to publicize road closures? Park closures? Wildfire notices?  It is the definition of stupid

Now is the time people actually need tin-foil hats.

Today was a fun day though

Trump: If you're not coming to discuss paying for the wall then don't come

why suspect a conspiracy? isn't reality mad enough? i think sometimes history takes a sideways swerve and you simply can't account for irrationality. america has elected a tinpot populist. i'm sure latin america is enjoying the delicious irony that the empire to their north's plebs have finally elected someone who advocates the type of politics that the CIA has thrust upon their homelands for decades.

there's no need for conspiracy in this. no shadowy cabals or grand designs. i think in these circumstances it's a crutch of stupidity to look to conspiracies.

Did you mean me? I'm not suggesting any conspiracy, people will need tin-foil hats to protect from the fallout.

I think though that the Republican right, the racists, the Israel supporters are very pleased with what they have in Trump, although there was no conspiracy to put him there.

President Donald Trump says he is issuing an "executive action" ordering the Pentagon to identify ways to boost the armed forces.

In a visit to the Pentagon, his first as commander in chief, Trump put in motion his campaign promises to undertake a major military buildup.

Standing in the Hall of Heroes in the Pentagon honoring recipients of the medal of honor, Trump said his efforts will lead to "a great rebuilding of the armed services of the United States — new planes, new ships, new resources and new tools for our men and women in uniform."

You don't build an army unless you plan to use it. I still expect Trump to somehow end up invading Syria once his generals explain to him how important Assad is to Iran. Please proceed, Mr. Trump

The travel ban seems to be causing chaos already. People with valid visas are getting detained at airports or are unable to board flights. The status of people with green cards or work and student visas is up in the air. The affected countries are reaching out to their stateside citizens to tell them to not leave the country until the law is clarified.

I think the vast conspiracy wasn't so much planned as it was grown like a tumor by anti-vax soccer moms, disgruntled white men, Democrats who downplayed his chances until zero hour, and anyone who held their nose and ticked that box because it had an "R" next to it.

i hate to tell you guys this but something that just happens organically, even if in ways that were unforeseen, is not a 'conspiracy'.

Trump on Twitter wrote:

“The joint statement of former presidential candidates John McCain & Lindsey Graham is wrong - they are sadly weak on immigration. The two ... Senators should focus their energies on ISIS, illegal immigration and border security instead of always looking to start World War III.”

He can't even handle criticism from his own party! Has to rush off to belittle them over Twitter. And the President of all people should not be making comments about another world war.

He is mentally unfit.

Oh yeah, he did make fun of McCain for being a prisoner of war, also.

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump on Saturday made fun of Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) military service during a question-and-answer session at the the 2015 Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa.

The New York business mogul taunted McCain’s six years as a prisoner during the Vietnam War.

“He was a war hero because he was captured,” Trump sarcastically told host Frank Luntz during the 2015 Family Leadership Summit. “I like people who weren’t captured.”

Is he right here, too? Is McCain just a loser?

No, but they're different issues. Being a former POW doesn't give McCain a free pass to be a permanent war hawk.

Lindsey Graham would have been my preferred republican 2016 nominee. I have a lot of respect for him and McCain for not falling in line behind Trump.

They are two men who understand the threats facings this nation and what is needed to challenge them.

it has never been about immigration. it is about race.

i would say mass banning everyone because they are from majority muslim countries puts it in the territory of race rather than targeted terrorism strategy.

don't give me the pedantic talk about whether islam is a race and thus is it racist. you know what i am talking about.

I am still surprised this whole racial backlash thing happened. Here in the NYC area I would have said race relations are the best they have ever been. But apparently there are some very angry people living in the hills of Pennsylvania who want nothing to do with anyone else. I don't get it.

lybia
siria
sudan
yemen
somalia
iraq
iran

The first six used to be threats to Israel, to a greater or lesser degree, and are now failed states and hotbeds for ISIS.
The last is currently a threat to Israel and will soon be a failed state.

Its surprising that Saudi Arabia isn't on the list.
Then again maybe not.

it is really dumb that iran is on the list even if you accept the excuse about terrorism. i am all for fucking over iran but i will admit they aren't a source for the sort of terrorism the western world is affected by.
