How do the right wing sympathizers feel about the restructuring of the National Security Council that downgrades the Chair of The Joint Chiefs and National Intelligence Director while making white nationalist Steve Bannon a full member??? Don't forget kooky Mike "Fake News" Flynn, who Colin Powell felt had gone off the deep end, is running it
Pro military conservatives should be screaming the loudest right now... maybe they will just get in line like good little sympathizers
I am very interested in what you think about this move BS, foreign policy is one of the issues you hang your hat on and I wonder how this can be viewed in a positive light.
Not sure how I feel about this yet. Would like to know more. Bannon being in the room doesn't trouble me...he does have a navy background after all...still want more info on the "downgrading" of the Joint Chiefs though. Remember that it isn't just Trump and Bannon in the room. Sec. Mattis and soon to be Sec. Tillerson will be there as well. If the Sec. of Defense was a civilian as per usual then this would certainly be a troubling "downgrade" because nobody with actual military experience would be present. General Mattis however gives Trump that military knowledge that would be lacking so is the Joint Chiefs presence absolutely necessary? This is what I would want to know. The current reporting states that the Joint Chiefs would be called upon if needed. That might be ok and I think deferring to Mattis on this decision is acceptable. No need for my2hands to get hysterical...yet.
Oh gee, that's comforting! An oil CEO sure brings a much needed perspective to National Security!
Knowing how much oil we can take after an invasion is important info.
well, trump did say we should have taken the oil during the iraq war. even after he was pressed about it being against all international law, he still claimed we should have taken it, because then we "wouldn't have ISIS", and we may get the opportunity again.
a president of the US telling a reporter in a televised interview he is interested in knowingly refuting international law.
I can't understand why people haven't been talking about this.
You really want a discussion about US presidents and international law???
sure, have at er. I think openly discussing stealing to profit from invasion is, um, like, pretty bad, dude.

a president who calls terrorists "bad dudes". did you all elect the Big Lebowski?
no interest in the horrific situation in canada?
no, I'm currently WAY too obsessed with america and my blind hatred of such.
tell me something i dont know....
I always find it so interesting that americans that hate when non-americans criticize, or even just discuss, american foreign policy issues, which, like it or not, effect the globe, seem to be the first to defend their government's right to get involved in all the world's business.

on second read, you are thinking way too much. have a doob and relax.
So here's my train of thought. My grandpa's family moved to the United States from Germany in 1925 with my grandfather in the womb. Now, we're talking like 6 or 7 years after WWI where a main member of the alliance of the other side was...shocker, the German Empire. Germany was very unstable after the war and that lead to the unfortunate rise of Hitler.
Now, let's put that very situation into place but with Donald Trump as the President. You're coming off the largest war in modern history, the new Germany is terribly unstable with a rise in extremism and facists...would he ban Germans from coming into the United States who are fleeing from a country in ruins?

I'm thinking he would probably align himself with the fascists, join the third reich.

An anti-LGBT executive order coming down the pipeline.
What. Is. Happening?
I heard that as well. Trying to pry more info out of my source for that.
The rumor is that Trump intends to roll back an executive order put in place by President Obama which prohibited federal contractors from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation, and perhaps go even further to allow a broader range of discrimination against LGBT people based on ‘religious freedom’. http://www.towleroad.com/2017/01/anti-lgbt-executive-order/

Sounds like something Pence would do. Between Bannon and Pence we're in for a hell of a ride. Fuck them both, and fuck the orange tyrant. It is going to be a long 4 years whether the fat orange guy lives that long or not. (BTW, whether he lives or not was not a reference to violence. I think he looks as unhealthy as I've ever seen him, and the stress will continue to pile on. I think he's going to die of natural causes before anyone could ever plot something).

Read federal funding for adoption agencies may be impacted. Two of our best friends have 2 beautiful daughters and couldn't be better parents. This is all so sad
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Yup. We definitely need to keep this in mind and stay vigilant.
