What is the likelihood of the suits from the state AG's being settled before the 90 day pause expires? If not does the case even have standing against a non-existent order?

Twitter Is Reminding Schumer About a Tweet He Sent in 2015 Regarding National Security

http://townhall.com/tipsheet/c...ent-in-2015-n2278870

We must tighten loopholes in the Visa Waiver prgm, ensure passports can’t be faked & stop terrorists who want to exploit the system.
1:26 PM - 19 Nov 2015

The New York senator backed up his tweet at the time by telling Congress "a pause" on refugee resettlement in the U.S. "may be necessary."

Because it wasn't long ago that Schumer shared some common ground with Trump and his immigration plans, Twitter users are calling out the senator's hypocrisy.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

I'm loving it!



I'd like to think he is implementing the OODA loop developed by John Boyd. Trump is getting inside the decision loop of his opponents, aka the mainstream media and democrats. Before they can even orient and decide on his previous action, he has already moved on to his next action. That's why the Dems keep trying to delay his cabinet appointments, they need more time to work through their loop.

And yes, I'm loving it too! A whole bunch of slow-moving know-nothing politicians getting schooled on how to get stuff done by a successful business executive.

One of the informal meanings of "nuts" is "wrong." That is the logical sense and obvious meaning of the term in my post.

"Standing up" in the sense Chuckie used the term means "defy."

That doesn't work, past a certain point.

Chuckie's nuts!

Report: Trump halted $181 billion in regulatory costs on first day in office:

In one of his first acts as president, Donald Trump effectively halted nearly $200 billion worth of regulations, according to a new analysis.

President Trump has taken aggressive action to curb regulations in his first week, promising to cut 75 percent or "maybe more," and signing an executive order Monday to cut two regulations from the books when every new rule is introduced.

The first move came in the form of a memo to all federal agencies from Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, freezing all recently finalized and pending regulations. The American Action Forum, a center-right policy institute, found the action resulted in stopping rules that would cost the economy $181 billion.

"On day one in office, President Trump’s Chief of Staff, Reince Priebus, signed a memo to all executive agencies imposing a regulatory moratorium," wrote Sam Batkins, director of regulatory policy for the American Action Forum. "This may sound like an extraordinary action, but President Obama’s then-Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, penned an almost identical memo eight years ago."

"According to American Action Forum (AAF) research, this memo put a hold on $181 billion in total regulatory costs, including $17 billion in annual costs, and 5.5 million hours of paperwork," Batkins wrote. "This moratorium freezes 22 rulemakings with annual costs above $100 million and 16 measures with more than $1 billion in long-term costs."

Former Trump aide says US will pull out of Paris climate deal within 'days'

http://www.foxnews.com/politic...eal-within-days.html

One of President Trump’s former aides said Monday that the U.S. will pull out of the landmark Paris climate pact within the coming “days.”

Myron Ebell, who helped the Trump administration’s Environmental Protection Agency transition, told reporters that Trump was “determined” to undo Barack Obama’s climate change initiatives.

“I expect Donald Trump to be very assiduous in keeping his promises, despite all of the flack he is going to get from his opponents,” Ebell said. “He could do it by executive order tomorrow, or he could wait and do it as part of a larger package. There are multiple ways and I have no idea of the timing.”

Senate Democrats to Block Vote on HHS and Treasury Nominees Are you kidding me?

So - Dems have made it clear that they will kick and fight at every turn and use every dirty trick in the book. I don't think they understand that Trump/Republicans have been restrained so far - but at this point it has to be gloves off. This is a dirty barroom brawl and we better start to recognize that an act on it. Will be like this for 4 years.

That aside - anyone know how you can bypass these obstructionists so you can get the nominee vote to the floor?

That's the point. He was for it when Obama was in office, but crying about it today.
