To preview the Trump presidency, look at the confirmation hearings for his cabinet picks | Fox News


This piece summarizes exactly how I feel about Trumps cabinet picks. I am so stoked I can hardly stand it. Great things are going to happen in this country. But I tell you right now, no matter what this administration accomplishes that is good for the country, the dems are going to go after the next election. Those who voted for a change and the country to get better had better be out there signing up "legitimate" voters. The Dems are hard at it on the college campus, in the migrant camps, anywhere they can find a warm, ignorant body.

Great read, thanks. Dems are scared that Trump will be a success. He's building a great team of people.

Good chance Dems will lose even more seats in the 2018 elections. They are really paying a price for poor leadership the last 6 years.

Are you seriously suggesting that college students should not be encouraged to vote? We made darn sure our teenagers were registered to vote and did so as soon as they were of age, which turned out to be senior year of high school. We talked through the issues as a family, ensuring that they knew how the process worked and why it was important that they follow through on election day regardless of whether or not we agreed.

So Trump's second ranked NSA pick Monica Crowley pulls out after her plagiarism takes center stage

But she might not be the only one

Ben Carson and Monica Crowley Were Accused of Plagiarism on Same Day

Can't you quit carrying water for Trump long enough to engage in a discussion without getting nasty?

Not seriously. All my grandchildren, except the 13 yr old, are encouraged to vote and we talk about the issues.

Draining the swamp, really.

Tom Price's confirmation hearings tomorrow should prove very interesting.


Quote:
Washington (CNN)Rep. Tom Price last year purchased shares in a medical device manufacturer days before introducing legislation that would have directly benefited the company, raising new ethics concerns for President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for Health and Human Services secretary.

Price bought between $1,001 to $15,000 worth of shares last March in Zimmer Biomet, according to House records reviewed by CNN.
.....
The issue has become a major liability for the congressman after The Wall Street Journal reported last month that he traded roughly $300,000 in shares over the past four years in health companies while pursuing legislation that could impact them

You are embarrassing yourself, haven't heard of the problems at Norfolk.

How about that left wing publication The Navy Times?

Quote:
Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia and 17 other U.S. military installations sitting on waterfront property are looking at hundreds of floods a year and in some cases could be mostly submerged by 2100, according to a new report from the Union of Concerned Scientists. Based on these calculations, the report says a three-foot sea level rise would threaten 128 U.S. military bases, valued at roughly $100 billion.

Nine of those bases are major hubs for the Navy: In addition to Norfolk, flooding threatens Naval Station Mayport, Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay in Georgia and the Naval Academy in Maryland, where 2003's Hurricane Isabel flooded classrooms, dormitories and athletic facilities.

I don't think you know much about Norfolk or you would of realize it was built in an area prone to flooding... you might want to brush up on your history lesson...
