In between these fake blood games and folks who got stuck in the crossfire of the immigration ban. I thought this post could be appropriate. if you had any doubts about the danger. This is what the other side is seeing. And if you want to learn more, because you don't understand, you can research the atrocities of Europe. It's #NSFW and graphically violent. So don't watch it if you're easily offended to act inappropriately to me. It's the reason why there is a ban on these 7 countries, and why an open door policy is dangerous right now in the opinion of many others.
- yahooeu.ru? seems legit.nb
- the youtube videos were taken down. So you're actually lucky to even see it.********

- okay numb nuts, if it's so good why did these assholes decide it's only for 90 days ... is that how long we will be safe for? Dumb fuck.monospaced
- This executive order is a security precaution. Obama originally hid these security threats for political correctness, 90 days lacks sufficient time for fix.********

If you are interested in the travel ban on terror. This video is from someone on the inside. It is something to think about.
- It's a travel ban on muslims...see_thru
- But they already admitted they were lying fucks and said it wasn't a ban at all. Derp.monospaced
- the Executive Order does not mention Islam, or any other religions. CNN used the word “Muslim,” not Trump.********
- Would that scenario he spoke of had happened before the ban?********
- The Department of State warns U.S. citizens against all travel to Iraq. Superseding a Travel Warning dated July 6, 2016********
- The order states 'predominantly muslim'...and Trump, Spicer and Conway are all on record using 'muslim' and 'ban' in the same sentence.see_thru
- My bad...it doesn't state that, it prioritizes Christians, and being applied to majority muslim countries it's easily interpreted as a muslim ban.see_thru
- My comments on T, S & C still stand...this issue and omg's trolling is making me so goddam angry.see_thru
- @see_thru, I agree a ban doesn't make me happy either. Mentions of 'muslim' or 'ban' are not in the EO, and will affect both Syrian Christians and Muslims.********
- it doesn't have to be, omg ... it's simple deduction and honestly, everyone alive who has even the smallest bit of sense understands that it's about muslimsmonospaced
- if it's not about addressing "radical islamic terrorism" then what the fuck is it about? yeah, that's what I thought, you moronmonospaced
- You would think saving 1/2 the refugees would be ideal since 44% of the refugees are Christians who are getting they're heads chopped off.********

- if he doesn't start a war, man, there is one hell of a bubble coming...more spending, tax cuts, regulations, environment...gonna boom, then BUSTformed
- which will be perfect for real estate, all those tax cuts will pay for all the foreclosures, bye bye middle classformed
- I just hope there is a boom before the bust and not just bust :-/formed
- I think that's an optimistic view, it will be the rich using their enormous wealth to game the system to their advantage and rip even more value from the systemBuddhaHat
- On Trump-Tracker, this would have to count as a total about-face on one of his key election promises. Under Mnuchin, it's open season now.BuddhaHat
- Sorry, I just checked. He actually did promise to eliminate Dodd-Frank. And those fucking idiots still voted for him.BuddhaHat
- It's like Planet of the Apes - the primates have control. It's going to be messy but his energy levels will deplete quickly as everything he does is opposed byfadein11

- all the overreactionary ppl and media to trumps policy needs a name like the tea party or something. but usually its MSM that creates the brand********
- funny how the overreactionary has flipped. obama appoints rahm and "tea partiers" call death panels. you guys remind me of the exact same thing********
- Rahm Emmanuel was Jesus compared to Mnuchin, deathboy. Eliminating Dodd-Frank does more harm than this EO does good. What happens with re-regulation on Wall StBuddhaHat
- this time around, with an EO stating no bailouts? Banks go bust, the bank execs keep their $$, and what happens to everyone else?BuddhaHat
- that was *de-regulation*BuddhaHat
- Mnuchin flat-out lied to the Senate committee about his bank robo-calling thousands of customers; he shouldn't be trusted.BuddhaHat
- the reactionary response flew over your head buddha. keep in mind how much good DF has done in 6 years also if it accomplished what it was too do.********
- as far as bankers i dont trust them. right to be skeptical, should keep that skepticism for the so called protectors. DF has helped more than hindered********
- IF the banks go bust... we are in a different world than in 2007. Can see how QE has gone and how Fed is a hostage. I think its all pushing to E currency.********
- But that all speculation... regardless no bailouts would be a good thing. Imagine if people had a loss and stopped trusting banks. They would lose their power********
- corrections even in the right direction can be painful and can last decades. All dependent upon how long and big the bubbles and distortions existed.********
- i cant help but think you want to see than bankers brought down for their market manipulations but you think it can be done in a way that doesn't hurt.********
- but most importantly similiarties of 8yr ago tea partiers vs today antitrumpsters. it is something to watch, and all the strings being pulled********
- hell look at stuff posted and it looks like drake but instead of a single guy its a angry mob of the same vitriol different view/belief. fuckin toxic.********
- why i probably wont be around much of this shit. too much drama. not worth trying to find any political philosophy discussion, ill just go back to the books********
- I utterly reject your comparisons to 8 years ago. Trump is like no1 else before him. He is a fraud, and you are wilfully blind to not see it.BuddhaHat

George Washington’s views on political parties in America
http://www.washingtontimes.com/n…
Excerpt:
"Party lines and loyalty were drawn to the point of personal bitterness and public destructiveness. Such division along party lines represented the most severe split between the two political factions since the inception of the republic. It made a deep impact upon Washington and the memory must have been in his mind as he wrote about the very real capacity of political parties to destroy the fragile unity holding the nation together.
It is not that Washington failed to understand the contribution of parties, but he was greatly concerned that they had previously, and would again, grow seeking more power than other groups to the detriment of the whole.
Washington was aware that other governments viewed political parties as destructive because of the temptation to manifest and retain power, but also because they would often seek to extract revenge on political opponents.
He viewed this to be detrimental to the young country as an entire nation."

Arkansas passes law allowing rapists to sue victims who want an abortion
http://www.independent.co.uk/new…
A pregnant woman's husband will have the power to stop her from having an abortion, even in cases of spousal rape, under a new law introduced in the US state of Arkansas.
Most second trimester abortions will also be banned by Act 45 - the Unborn Child Protection From Dismemberment Abortion Act - which will make it possible for husbands to sue doctors who carry out abortions for civil damages, or get an injunction to block the termination.

Campaign Contributions To Senators By The DeVos Family
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/en…
In 1997, after facing years of criticism for her and her family’s campaign contributions, DeVos defended herself in Roll Call.
“I have decided to stop taking offense at the suggestion that we are buying influence,” she wrote. “Now I simply concede the point. They are right. We do expect something in return. We expect to foster a conservative governing philosophy consisting of limited government and respect for traditional American virtues. We expect a return on our investment.”

Trump Has 2 Events This Weekend — And Both Benefit His Businesses
The president will attend the Red Cross Ball at his Mar-A-Lago estate, and a Super Bowl party at his Palm Beach golf resort.

Lol, trump goes on vacation, and gets kicked straight in the nuts by our government. State department just shut down his travel ban. Republican leaders starting to turn on him.
Twitter fingers throwing a fit. Hes starting to learn you cant operate like a dictator in this country. Keep it up and he will find himself in impeachment hearings soon enough, or be asked to resign.
