Sounds like Trump very well may nominate Joe Lieberman as new FBI Director? Guess I'm a little surprised at that pick. Haven't even heard his name mentioned in a long time. Best known as Al Gore's VP running mate. He endorsed Hillary of course. Don't get why Trump would want him in that position or any for that matter.

Joe Lieberman is maybe the very last of the old-style Democrats around. He is not particularly "Leftist" in his views, is calm and soft-spoken, and at least makes sense when he talks. He has had some serious departures with his Democrat "brethren" on numerous occasions. And he appears to actually be a man of his word. flashguyThis message has been edited.

Lieberman is a man i would sit down an buy a beer for. | |||

His diet consists of black coffee, and sarcasm. |
I have less worry about Lieberman's politics than whether he has actually run anything. If he is picked. | |||

Another "small" change in the right direction: https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...ir-citizens-n2328867 One of the many issues Department of Homeland Security officials have faced in trying to remove criminal aliens from the U.S. is the fact that many countries refused to take back their citizens. A 2001 Supreme Court ruling complicated matter in ruling that illegal immigrants whose home countries won’t take them back cannot be detained indefinitely. Thus, many ended up on the streets, committing even more crimes. Now, however, things are changing. With persuasion, threats, and punishment, DHS has managed to drop the number of countries that won’t take back immigrants the U.S. is trying to deport from 20 to 12 since the presidential election. Iraq, Somalia, Afghanistan, Algeria, Burkina Faso, the Gambia, Mali, Senegal and Sierra Leone are now off the list of recalcitrant countries. Cuba, China, Burma, Cambodia, Eritrea, Guinea, Iran, Laos, Morocco, South Sudan, Vietnam, and Hong Kong remain, however. | |||

Rush: The best strategery for the President: I think now, folks, there is a golden opportunity. I don't know how big an opportunity, but it's an opportunity. It's an opening. Since they've announced this stupid special counsel investigation, just head full speed down the road of the domestic agenda. Let's get going on repealing Obamacare. And use the force of Trump's personality and his victory to get Republicans in Congress signed up and doing this. Ditto on tax reform. The one thing - the one thing that's gonna provide Trump some insurance here is actually making America great again, is actually improving the circumstances. It's gonna be hard, because the Republicans don't want to do it! "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 "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

OK, fine, we'll compromise, and meet them halfway. Take the miscreants halfway home and drop them off for Cuba, China, Burma, Cambodia, Eritrea, Guinea, Iran, Laos, Morocco, South Sudan, Vietnam, and Hong Kong to pick them up. ____________________ | |||

I'd never make it as a diplomat or a politician. "If you won't take back your citizens that we wish to deport, no more visas for anyone from your country. No tourists, no students, no businessmen (or women), no athletes, no performers, no sailors, no pilots, nobody.". If that doesn't get your attention, next month we'll consider refusing any products shipped from or originated in your country. If that doesn't get your attention, the following month we'll PNG everyone in any diplomatic mission you may have here and ship their asses out too. There's probably a million reasons why this wouldn't work or would cause bigger problems, but damned if it doesn't seem like an attractive approach...This message has been edited.

"Net Neutrality" is/was just a stalking horse for government takeover of the internet. Here's another example of good things coming out of the Trump Administration: LINK

SapperSteel, thanks. Another superb Trump appointment, just superb. I've said it before, but this is likely the most conservative cabinet and set of appointees since...I don't know, Coolidge? Dare I say, more conservative than Reagan's cabinets? The deregulation effort is very serious and Congress is working well with the administration to make it happen in a serious way. Trump's greatest achievement so far. _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

I'd like to see the daily briefing cease and just hand out a sheet of paper with a dozen bullet points called "Here's What We Did Today" let them do their own research, but then everyone gets a message with no noise attached if the press wants to ask a question, they can put it in writing - if any of them even know how to write any more [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

I knew there'd be bi-partisanship with the republicans and democrats fighting Trump but never thought they'd burn the Country down if they didn't get their way. We know for a fact obama gave the worlds biggest state sponsor of terrorism- iran billions of dollars in cash= and we didn't blink an eye. Yet the media is thrown into a tizzy by vague anonymous accusations against Trump. What's Trump accused of doing again? ____________________________________________________ The butcher with the sharpest knife has the warmest heart. | |||

The coverage of Trump in Saudi is something. They really rolled out the red carpet for him. Did you know the Beast (limo) rides in the cargo hold of the 747? The US women must be wowing those desert rats. No hair covering! Not even the translator. Melania was wearing a black outfit with broad gold belt, looked like $5 million in small unmarked bills. 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.

I firmly believe Trump is the best thing to happen to this country since Reagan. A breath of fresh air. The dems, and the republicans, are trying their damnedest to sink him. I have to keep telling myself it is early yet. Grind on. I am just so disgusted at the Congress. Absolutly filthy people. They truly don't deserve to call themselves Americans. We bust our asses and they take us for granted. We pay taxes, try to raise families, and all they can think of is their carreer. Ugg. Depressing. | |||
