    An Iceberg Twice the Size of New York
    City Is About to Split From Antarctica

    By JUGAL K. PATEL MARCH 28, 2019

    Two rifts on the Brunt Ice Shelf in Antarctica are close to creating an iceberg over 560 square miles in size. Scientists say the calving event could happen any day now.

     Can anyone on here confirm that Trump has attended the Special Olympics?

    Please don’t insult the kids they have more to offer society than the idiot in chief who offers zero , except hate exclusion and vile racism on a daily basis ..
    I'm not insulting the kids (adults compete too actually). I'm insulting Trump.
    to be fair, insulting trump by comparing him to someone with an intellectual disability is in fact insulting those with intellectual disabilities. 
    Jeez some of you guys are so sensitive. Suggesting Trump is mentally-disabled isn't that far off from calling him a "buffoon" or "idiot" or whatever else some of you guys come up with. I stated my feelings for (and bond with) mentally-disabled folks yesterday. I stand by that...and I stand by my insult of Trump...

    Trump says he is rescinding his proposed cut to Special Olympics budget amid a bipartisan outcry
    This is good to hear. I was probably more pissed off about this than most things Trump has done because my cousin has Down Syndrome, and in my younger days, I had a job working with people with mental disabilities so I have a bit of a bond with folks like that. I mean, really, how could they have the nerve to cut funding for the Special Olympics in the first place when it's only a measly $17 million dollars? Mueller's investigation cost almost twice that. Of course Trump said he had no idea this was even happening. Well yeah, if I had to choose between looking dumb and looking evil, I guess I'd choose dumb too. 


    All I did was ask whether anyone can confirm that he’s attended the Special Olympics. Because if he hasn’t? He has stooped to a new low of telling lies. He doesn’t strike me as someone who would attend but in this instance, I’d love to be proven wrong.
    I don't know if he has or hasn't. My response and any of these responses weren't directed at you. You asked if Trump's been there, I responded with a bit of an off-colored joke, josevolution and HFD went social justice warrior on me because how dare I compare Trump to the mentally-disabled, I responded to them that I didn't think it was all that big a deal, and life goes on. 
    I liked your joke too I was trying to convey something and I came off wrong

    @BS44325 when does Team Trump Treason fire AG Barr for starting a covert surveillance program against Americans by tapping their wires? Maybe we should go back and review the data for Team Trump Treason contacts with Russians? Drain the swamp my ass.

    https://apple.news/AebZ1wN3CQEOlbieHrApS4A
    The program, known within the drug agency as USTO (a play on call going from the United States to other countries), was carried out in part by the department’s Criminal Division, run at the time by Robert Mueller

    Interesting that it was run by everybodys hero, Bobby Mueller.

    Also it continued through Clinton, Bush, and into the 2nd Obama term until Edward Snowden dropped knowledge. One mans "traitor" is another mans Daniel Ellsberg

    See, i read articles lol
    Funny how the media slyly shows bias... the headline smearing Barr over this... but glossing over that it was actually overseen by Bobby's division... created under Clinton (you think POTUS isn't aware or greenlights such a project?) and continued through 2 more presidents, including the savior Obama, until they were forced to end it because of Snowden 
    Barr as AG had primary responsibility for the creation and authorization of the program. Team Mueller ran it, “in part,” through his criminal division. Team Mueller didn’t create it, have authorization to tell others to use it and was a likely beneficiary of data collected and passed on. Don’t let your “bias” get in the way. And that’s got Cheney all over it. Once you let the genie out, it’s damn hard to put it back and the repubs have let a shit ton of genies out. LOL.
    I love how you downplay Muellers role and the fact it continued under democrat administrations,  more so than republican actually... You think Barr, or any other AG, would be the sole creator of something like that? You think something like that isnt ultimately authorized by the White House? It survived through ALL of the Clinton years, and into Obamas 2nd term under Holder, until Snowden blew the whistle. Was Dick Cheney controlling it through the Clinton & Obama years? Lol

    You're blind faith and trust in democrats is hilarious

    My bias is the truth, not party

    You have no idea what Mueller’s role in it was and allowed your bias to posit that it was created under Clinton. Barr never worked for Clinton and didn’t take office until 1993. So much for your “truth.” And it was a dem who put that genie back in the bottle after your hero Snowden betrayed his country and took up residence with Putin on the ritz. LOL.
     
    Hilarious dude... trying to pin a surveillance program only on Barr and completely exonerate/overlook your hero Muellers role in implementing it, and having no issue with it continuing into the Clinton presidency for 8 years, all 8 under W, and into Obamas 2nd term.... it went in for 21 years, including under 2 democrat administrations 

    Snowden is the only reason it ended, not a democrat magically deciding to do the right thing. 

    You are obviously just a rah-rah for the Democrats and blindly support them... seriously, do you work for the DNC or something? 

    Keep playing your team sport, my only team is the american people. And yes i love whistleblowers that let the American public know what bullshit their government is doing. 

    Keep your blue pom-poms on though, it's cute lol

    I know you're getting flak for this but it's a pretty good joke.
    It's cool that you liked it. It's cool that they didn't. We're all cool. 

    Since I've made mention of my cousin that has Down Syndrome a few posts ago, and this is the Trump thread, it's worth noting that he in fact voted for Trump. He's a registered voter and I took him to vote and helped him. I said "Okay Joseph, so who do you want to be the President....Clinton or Trump?" He replied Trump (he tends to choose the second of two choices in most instances) so I showed him where to fill in the circle. Then I asked "So who do you want to be Vice-President?" and before I could tell him the two options, he replied "Stone Cold Steve Austin." I couldn't agree more and dictated the letters to him so he could write "Steve Austin" under the write-in part for VP. 
    that's awesome. LOL

    I am, and this wasn't it. He has on numerous occasions made reference to both wind and solar power, demonstrating an utter lack of knowledge on the subject of alternate energy sources. He is a dotard.

    Another you can add to the list is his notion that global warming equates to heat. After Amy Klobuchar announced her candidacy in a snow storm, Trump was like (paraphrased) "Global WARMING? Look at all the snow! How is that warming?"

    from last night's rally:

    "You'd be doing wind, windmills. 'Wind'. And if it doesn't -- if it doesn't blow you can forget about television for that night. Darling I want to watch television. I'm sorry, the wind isn't blowing. I know a lot about wind. I know a lot about wind."

    he is easily the stupidest president the US has ever had. 
    Are you unable to recognize comedy?
    I am, and this wasn't it. He has on numerous occasions made reference to both wind and solar power, demonstrating an utter lack of knowledge on the subject of alternate energy sources. He is a dotard.
    This place is humourless.
