Trump is heading for a do-nothing presidency

"George W. Bush, but racist." That's what Jonathan Chait of New York Magazine says President Donald Trump is turning into, as he abandons some of his more idiosyncratic campaign positions and starts listening to Republican Party regulars who favor foreign wars and tax cuts for the rich. This comparison is unfair — to George W. Bush. Bush accomplished things, whether you liked those things or not. I agree with Chait that Trump is failing to promote and advance a policy agenda of his own. But the likely result is that he will do very little, not that he will achieve what a conventional Republican president would achieve, if given a Republican ...

In the ongoing migrant invasion of Europe — an invasion that is welcomed by the governments of western Europe — the village of Sant’Alessio in Calabria, southern Italy is a microcosm. See if you can spot the propaganda in the following “report” by Fanny Carrier of AFP (via France24), April 16, 2017: In the foothills of the Aspromonte mountains in southern Italy, the silence of a once-dying village is broken by the laughter of a small group of refugees. Tiny Sant’Alessio has been welcoming families and vulnerable migrants here for three years in a project which not only provides humanitarian assistance but brings with it invaluable economic and social ...

Two Canadian foster parents had their foster children removed from their home because they refused to say the Easter Bunny is real. The Christian couple has taken court action, saying their rights have been violated. Derek and Frances Baars filed court papers against Hamilton Children’s Aid Society after the agency said they must tell their foster children that the Easter Bunny is a “real entity.” “We were committed to not lying to children,” Derek Baars said, adding “they could expect the truth from us and we expected the truth from them.” The couple, who are devout Christians, told the agency that they “do not endorse Santa Claus or the Easter ...

Who trusts the U.S. government and American newsmedia nowadays? Only dupes possibly can. Just look at the recent history, for the evidence on that:The U.S. Government and ‘news’media lied us into invading Iraq in 2003, and hid their coup that overthrew the democratically elected progressive government in Iran in 1953, and lied to say that the CIA wasn’t behind the overthrow and ’suicide' of Salvador Allende in Chile in 1973 — and now they’re lying us into war yet again, this war against Syria (where we, and our allied jihadists who are fighting to overthrow Assad, have already destroyed the lives of the people). ...

Trump's voters are watching the Washington Establishment capture Donald Trump.His reversals are now heralded by the mainstream media. The Washington Post has continued to attack him 24x7, yet it admits he is taking centrist positions. The BBC has also noted it.He campaigned against ObamaCare. He failed to promote repeal. The accent was on "replace." Paul Ryan's compromise was a disaster. The Freedom Caucus in the House of Representatives blocked it. Trump declared war on them. But he has no clout in their districts. Most of them pulled better than he did last November.The Export-Import Bank has subsidized big businesses for decades. Candidate Trump said he was against it. ...

The attempted launch comes just one day after the North held a massive parade to ...

President Trump has requested a ride with Queen Elizabeth II in a gold-plated carriage during his visit to the United Kingdom this October, according to a report by The Times of London.The tradition of world leaders taking a carriage ride along the mall from the Royal Mews to Buckingham Palace with the Queen is not entirely unusual.The decision has not yet been confirmed, and aspects of Trump's visit are still in flux. While President Obama chose not to ride in such a carriage during his U.K. visit, other world leaders — including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Chinese President Xi Jinping — have taken such ...

Russia called for international inspectors to visit Idlib, where the U.S. accused Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad of carrying out a deadly chemical weapons attack against his own citizens. Syria’s government invited the Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to visit the site of the April 4 incident and the airbase that the U.S. later bombed, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said. Representatives of United Nations Security Council members, the European Union and the Middle East should travel with OPCW inspectors to ensure a “transparent” investigation, he said at a meeting with his Qatari counterpart Mohammed Al Thani Saturday in Moscow.

Donald Trump’s administration is a black box of confusion, chaos and incompetence. Those on the outside looking in are left confused and bewildered, desperately seeking signs and portents of what the most powerful man in the world will do next. This is not normal. In a time of global crises and increasing tensions it is also very dangerous.The United States is supposed to be the world’s leading democracy. The health of a democracy is highly dependent on transparency and accountability. Trump’s administration has repeatedly shown his disdain for both of those fundamental principles. This is a lubricant for America’s further descent into fascism. It also signals to a much ...

Following the missile strike on Syria, President Trump has now sent an armada North Korea’s way, and they have decided to evacuate 600,000 people from the capital. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un gave the order to evacuate, according to Korea Joongang Daily. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un recently ordered the deportation of nearly 600,000 Pyongyang residents to the suburbs, a local source told the JoongAng Ilbo Monday. The deportation represents one-fourth of Pyongyang’s current population of 2.6 million. It is not known when they will be forced to move or to where. “Population control was the pretext of the latest order,” said the source, who asked for anonymity, ...

On the morning of April 4th 2017, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, on the verge of a military victory against the terrorist insurgency in his country and on the eve of peace talks that would secure his position as president, decided to use chemical weapons he didn’t have against a target of no military significance in front of as many cameras as possible to cross the one red line that would insure his own government’s downfall. Soon after, the Academy Award-winning White Helmets–noted for their Oscar-worthy performances, persistent proximity to Al Qaeda, and financial dependence on USAID–bravely risked their lives, handling Sarin victims barehanded against every ...

Well, I hate to say I told you so, but…I told you so. Look, I was suspicious of Trump from the beginning. But for a couple weeks into his presidency, I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. I didn’t just criticize the man day in and day out from Day One. After a couple weeks, though, it became very obvious that he was no different than any other president. I’ve been predicting he’d get us into two no-win wars long before this deal with Syria and North Korea began. Well, this morning the news has “revealed” photos of a North Korean nuclear test site they’re about to go hot with a new test on. Right, just like the Syrian gas attack, ...

As The Trump administration is flexing its military muscle, having stood up to Syria and its ally Russia, and while it’s now relishing in the news it has dropped the nation’s largest most-powerful non-nuclear bomb on a cave complex in Eastern Afghanistan, one critic was quick to point out one little-known fact. Wikileaks tweeted a simple but true statement concerning the origin of the cave complex the Americans are so proud to have reportedly destroyed. “Those tunnels the U.S is bombing in Afghanistan? They were built by the CIA,” Wikileaks tweeted. Linked to the tweet was a New York Times article from 2005, which described a similar cave complex in detail, ...

Threats towards the United States from North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un are hardly uncommon, but the bizarre Pyongyang regime is stepping up their war rhetoric in the wake of President Trump’s Syria strikes. Noting the escalating training exercises the U.S. is conducting across the border to the south of their country, North Korean state media warned Tuesday that they would unleash a nuclear weapons attack at the slightest provocation from U.S. military forces. The state’s official newspaper said the regime was ready to respond to any aggression. “Our revolutionary strong army is keenly watching every move by enemy elements with our nuclear sights focused on the U.S. ...

Witnesses said they saw warplanes attack the town but Russia says a rebel depot of chemical munitions was hit.

No one needs to look for tarot cards to figure out why Donald Trump ordered the USS Carl Vinson task group to sail for the Korean peninsula — he’s sending a message to North Korea. That message was already received in Pyongyang, but as Bloomberg reports today, it has been picked up by our allies too, with varying degrees of public enthusiasm. South Korea and Japan have played down the significance of the move and are sending signals of their own back to Washington to tread carefully: South Korea doesn’t support a preemptive strike and is closely coordinating with the Trump administration, according to an Asian government official familiar with North Korean issues ...

Liberals want to push the narrative that Muslim refugees can do no wrong, that they do not pose a threat… but we all know that is a blatant lie. The television series 60 Minutes sent a crew to Sweden to film a puff piece on the success of the Swedish refugee program. Instead, they found that the Swedish people were afraid, and the Muslim refugees were violent. “It’s a little more hostile than I had anticipated,” said the host to a Swedish man. He sternly replied, “Welcome to Rinkeby — it is also called Little Mogadishu.” The television crew quickly realized they misjudged the situation. The Muslim population became hostile within minutes of their ...
