It appears that this ploy may only work in Oregon, which has a more liberal age-discrimination law than most other states.

A tweet from Jake Gibson (Fox news producer):

Jeff Sessions on calls for second Special Counsel:

“I have appointed a person outside of Washington, many years in the Department of Justice, to look at all the allegations that the House Judiciary Committee members sent to us and we're conducting that investigation."

adding: Fox News w Shannon Bream is on right now. She just said she will be broadcasting an interview w Sessions in a few minutes and he will address the second special counsel issue.

So Jeff Sessions did say the quote above. He said he is considering the request for a second special counsel. He was very supportive of President Trump and said that Donald Trump gets things done.

Sessions seemed committed to guarantee that the FISA process is done properly. I would say the congressional committees and President Trump have his attention. He expressed confidence in FBI Dir Wray and noted that the upper management of the FBI has been rolled over w new people.

Winning: U.S. Steel to Call Back 500 Employees to Illinois Plant After Trump Announces Tariffs on Foreign Steel

United States Steel announced Wednesday morning that it would call back 500 employees to work at its Granite City, Illinois, plant after President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. would impose tariffs on foreign steel.
“Our Granite City Works facility and employees, as well as the surrounding community, have suffered too long from the unending waves of unfairly traded steel products that have flooded U.S. markets,” U.S. Steel President and Chief Executive Officer David B. Burritt said in a statement released Wednesday.

The steel company announced that it would need the additional personnel to support increased demand for steel after President Trump announced last week that the U.S. would impose tariffs on aluminum and steel imports.

Company leaders praised President Trump for his decision to increase competition among different companies, adding that steel imports threaten this country’s economic and national security.

The Granite City plant idled its blast furnaces and its steel-making facilities in December 2015 and idled its hot strip mill in January 2016 because of a sluggish market.

The plant re-opened its steel-making facilities on the heels of Trump’s announcement, asking the 500 employees to work in the previously shuttered steel-making facilities as soon as this month. It could take up to four months before the company can restart the blast furnaces entirely.

Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless.

The tariff on steel and aluminum may or may not be “winning” - yet to be seen how the overall impact plays out.

I simply think its a negotiating point

you dump cheap subsidized shit on our shores, and we will tariff something in return

if it leads to better and more fair trade, I am all for it but how does US business compete when stuff is being dumped here for pennies on the dollar?

President Trump knows what he is doing. Let him stand up for us. No one else- no one else- is going to stand up for us.

I don't listen to that guy any more. Too biased, but he acts as if he's so objective.

His opinion only, not very valuable IMO.

I know he can be hit or miss. I hope he's dead wrong in this case.

He needs to just be quiet, or do what he's going to do anyway- go to MSNBC.

Napolitano likes to say what will get attention. When Comey was about to announce his decision about Hillary, Napolitano said he knew many FBI agents-- MANY of them-- who said that if Comey did not recommend prosecution, there would be a massive walkout of agents. Massive! Roll Eyes

Big announcement coming at 7 ET tonight from South Korea, premably about a meet between the NoKos and SoKos.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Seems there may actually be a meeting between the President and rocket man.

You just know the left is going to hate this because Trump may actually resolve this crazy business in north Korea.

Then again, how can we really every trust that psychotic little man?
