Wow, now they're reading directly from teleprompters during their media appearances. Watch his eyes during this passionate and engaging statement discussion...
- That was truly a pathetic showing.garbage

- wouldn't it be nice if the media could say 'come back and talk to us when you have a clue of what you're talking about'... but then they'd never come back...BuddhaHat

American Sign Language for Donald Trump:
Use your hand to emulate what might happen if a stiff wind came in contact with Trump’s hair. Looks so similar to when someone says something crazy and you then put your hand on your head followed by a "I don't know" hand gesture...

lol. nine lives matter.
- I don't know which is more obnoxious - you posting these in the flimsy hope of getting a rise out of people or the arsehole who makes them.face_melter
- The only reason why face_melter is upset is because the pictures came already colored in. You can still grab your crayons for the picture posted underneath.********

- omg. are you agreeing with the idea comparing people with cat?pango
- Reframing from human to cats clearly illustrates the issue emotions detached.********

- Your hero Ben Garrison has hit a high note with this one, seeing how many racist, xenophobic and downright ignorant tropes he can fit in one illustration...BuddhaHat
- for an other object/person with a caption to be the metaphor for something what he thinks everyone knows?sted
- @sted - I spent a big chunk of my early design career designing books for one of the most famous UK political cartoonists. man - this stuff makes me so angry.fadein11
- I have 2 young children and its like the books I read to them at bedtime. Yet omong posts them like he's hit a home run. It is so embarrassing that this is allfadein11

- which is why the DeVos appointment concerns me so much... kids being schooled to believe all manner of pre-historic bullshit, & therebyBuddhaHat
- perpetuating and worsening an already sorry situationBuddhaHat
- @BuddahHat. you act like the Catholic Schools of today impose such an impact to your world of atheist science.********
- The issue is the success of getting rid of public schools which I think can be good if done right. Vouchers can ensure all kids going to better schools.********
- sshhhh, omg, you know not of what you speak.BuddhaHat
- omg - I don't think you are a bad person, just daft. open your outlook, relax and always remember the enemy is never the one you hear about on Fox Newsfadein11

A US-born NASA scientist was detained at the border until he unlocked his phone
Two weeks ago, Sidd Bikkannavar flew back into the United States after spending a few weeks abroad in South America. An employee of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Bikkannavar had been on a personal trip, pursuing his hobby of racing solar-powered cars. He had recently joined a Chilean team, and spent the last weeks of January at a race in Patagonia.
Bikkannavar says he was detained by US Customs and Border Patrol and pressured to give the CBP agents his phone and access PIN. Since the phone was issued by NASA, it may have contained sensitive material that wasn’t supposed to be shared. Bikkannavar’s phone was returned to him after it was searched by CBP, but he doesn’t know exactly what information officials might have taken from the device.
Seemingly, Bikkannavar’s reentry into the country should not have raised any flags. Not only is he a natural-born US citizen, but he’s also enrolled in Global Entry — a program through CBP that allows individuals who have undergone background checks to have expedited entry into the country. He hasn’t visited the countries listed in the immigration ban and he has worked at JPL — a major center at a US federal agency — for 10 years.

:Wow, unlawful search and seizure. How unconstitutional for a citizen to go through all that. Well, I guess that's how they want it so we shouldn't speak up at all.
- I didn't know astronaughts were part of the ban - is it because space is dark? Are the greys gonna be okay?fadein11
- All 4-syllable surnames are immediately subjected to immediate detainment and un-lubricated cavity searches under the new rules...BuddhaHat
- it's not unlawful search and seizure. based on my extensive experience watching that border crossing show, checking peoples phones seems quite routine.Gnash
- he looks like, space jesusGnash
- yes, my bad - does not apply to 100 mile border zone https://www.aclu.org…whatthefunk
- But he's not a terrorist interest. That's the point.monospaced
- perhaps they thought it was drugs or child porn, i don't know. this must happen to thousands everyday. not everything is trump's fault.Gnash
- Let's just admit it all has to do with last name and skin complexion, c'mon now...whatthefunk
- perhaps. my GFs son came back from a Habitat for Humanity build in Chile this summer. He was searched, along with his phone and pw,Gnash
- he's quite anglo looking, but young and may look like he smokes pot.Gnash
- This guy looks pretty anglo -- in the photo here, anyway. aside from the racing suit, he looks like your average pot-headGnash
- His name sounds foreign.monospaced
- the point, Gnash, is that he's a US citizen and was held only because of the travel ban that allowed his race and name to trigger a searchmonospaced
- even if he had sensitive and important Nasa info on his phone - do you think border control would know what it is, and what to do with it?fruitsalad
- that's your assumption, doesn't make it true because you think it.Gnash
- I'm not saying that people never get profiled but there's no evidence that it was due to the 'ban' other than your feeling that it isGnash
- people were getting profiled at the borders long before thisGnash
- There was absolutely no reason for him to have been held, at all. US-born citizen with previous extra-vetting and a government job. It was because of the banmonospaced
- the heightened security at the borders all increased the moment the ban went into place, and this is just one of many similar scenarios that stemmed from itmonospaced
- how do you know there was 'absolutely no reason -- because you think it, or because someone else thinks it? gov't jobs don't auto-exempt one from examination.Gnash
- it just as likely this was only another, boring old stop at the border.Gnash
- which of course, is just your assumption too, ignoring the evidential travel ban that has heightened awareness of foreign threats at border checksmonospaced
- Spoke to an immigration attorney this morning. Citizens do retain/possess 4th amendment protection even at US borderswhatthefunk
- yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, it's my assumption, as it is yours. it's not a fact. I only challenge that you present it that way. Let the bone go alreadyGnash
- In that 30 minutes they probably cloned his phone, then gave it back.instrmntl

Donald Trump Is Living Out All the Ridiculous Stereotypes of a Female President
The reasoning behind the institutionalized sexism that has kept women from the Oval Office isn't usually explained, but the idiotic stereotypes mostly have to do with emotion. Women are too emotional to be trusted with the highest office in the free world. They'll make "rash decisions," possibly while PMSing. They could be signing executive orders, and conducting foreign policy, and condemning private offices and individuals guided by no discernible metric beyond the flow of hormones!
Here's the ironic part: All of the nonsense behind the misogynistic fear of a female president has been coming to fruition in Donald Trump's first weeks in office. Worried that a woman in the White House would have careening mood swings often spurred by catty arguments? Look no further than Trump's Twitter feed.

"What’s going on was explained lucidly by a senior Pentagon intelligence official, who stated that “since January 20, we’ve assumed that the Kremlin has ears inside the SITROOM,” meaning the White House Situation Room, the 5,500 square-foot conference room in the West Wing where the president and his top staffers get intelligence briefings. “There’s not much the Russians don’t know at this point,” the official added in wry frustration."
- The content of that article is really quite alarming... CIA and SIGINT not trusting the WH with sensitive info is totally ass-backwards fucked up.BuddhaHat
- yep - but its so hard to tell what is genuine at mo. If true it is incredibly alarming. Vital intel being withheld because they cannto trust the administrationfadein11

Her emails tho.
Remember the hellfire and childish wailing about Clinton's supposed lapse in government security?
I guess discussing ICBM distribution policy with another head of state in a restaurant in full view and earshot of members of the public isn't really as important.
