Mr Dee Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 A man with integrity... (CNN) - A Trump appointee tasked with advising the administration on federal civil servants' pay has resigned over his objections to a new executive order that appears to provide the President more leeway in the hiring and firing of federal employees deemed disloyal. On its surface, the President's Executive Order purports to serve a legitimate and laudable purpose ... that is, to hold career Federal employees 'more accountable' for their performance," Sanders wrote. "However, it is clear that its stated purpose notwithstanding, the Executive Order is nothing more than a smokescreen for what is clearly an attempt to require the political loyalty of those who advise the President, or failing that, to enable their removal with little if any due process." https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/27/politics/trump-administration-executive-order-federal-salary-council/index.html Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like Buttegieg's idea of GOP pick 5, Dems pick 5 and then those 10 justices appoint another 5 with unanimous consent.- for a total of 15 SCOTUS Justices. I hate that idea. All you will get it gridlock in choosing judges. There will also be so many side deals and corruption. It would just bring even more politics into the court. No wonder Buttegieg likes it.

Tracker Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 This is the beginning of the scorched-earth policy that the GOP and Trump are instituting to punish America for voting them out and it is only going to get worse from here on. They will scramble to enrich themselves and try to shield themselves from criminal charges. It will escalate after the election and then the violence and threats will reach heights not seen in America since their last civil war. Canada will probably have to restrict Americans from flooding over the border even further. JCon, Mr Dee and Mark F 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlue4ever Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Conservative Twitter losing it’s mind this morning over Tucker Carlson’s interview with Tony Bobulinski, a “business associate” of Hunter Biden, who has “shocking proof” of Joe’s side business deals with China. Two main talking points are (a) how this will blow the lid off the Biden campaign and lead to criminal prosecution against the Biden crime family (the projection of the President’s supporters is really quite something), which so far has led to.............um, nothing of the sort (b) how scandalous it is that NO OTHER mainstream media is even picking up the story, and it is not trending on Twitter proving the massive bias and cover-up to protect Joe. Now I don’t know all of the facts, and can’t say for sure if the whole laptop from hell etc. is phony or not. The optics of it look very suspect as a legit story given the source of the information. But what I really have to laugh at now is how Trump is whining on Twitter that no one believes this story and refuses to cover it. Trump has lied so often in the past 4 years and about such dumb stuff and easily disprovable claims at times (biggest inauguration, I never said I don’t take responsibility) that he has become the boy who cries wolf. Even If the Biden story is 100% real, there is smug satisfaction that Trump’s own serial lying behaviour has sabotaged any possibility that he will be believed now. You screwed yourself there, stable genius. And the whole “boy who cries wolf” parable was one I learned in Grade One. You are what, 74 years old?
