    California can do that. They have the largest economy in the United States. They have the 6th largest economy in the world. Sadly, they also have one of highest populations of folks in poverty.

    Ah.

    So this is what states' rights look like.

    Maybe Bill Maher has a point:

    Jimmy Kimmel's Latest Stand: Trump Just Doesn't Understand Health Care

    Kimmel said thatTrump couldn't care less or know less about health care. "I guarantee [Trump] doesn’t know anything about this Graham-Cassidy bill. He doesn’t know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid. He barely knows the difference between Melania and Ivanka!"

    Regarding Trump's tweet that he supports the Graham-Cassidy bill because people w pre-existing conditions are provided access to health care. " He doesn't know what he is talking about. I guarantee that he has not read the bill. For him to comment on the bill is like having your dog to do your tax return"

    "For Donald Trump, this isn’t about the Graham-Cassidy bill, the it’s about getting rid of Obamacare, which he hates — primarily because Obama’s name is on it," Kimmel said.
    "He likes to have his name on things, buildings, boxes. And, at this point, he’d sign anything if it meant getting rid of Obamacare. He’d sign copies of the Qur’an at the Barnes & Nobel in Fallujah if it meant he could get rid of Obamacare."

    They don't need a border wall, they already have one.

    you need to stop lying.

    California filed a lawsuit Wednesday alleging that the Trump administration violated state and federal laws and the U.S. Constitution to expedite the construction of a wall along the border in Southern California.

    State Attorney General Xavier Becerra is seeking an injunction from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California to stop construction of the wall project in San Diego and Calexico.

    Becerra and lawyers for the California Coastal Commission claim the Department of Homeland Security illegally waived laws to install physical barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border under a section of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act that expired in 2008.

    I promise, you are the ignorant one. Considering you are a liberal poster here, the rest of your crew would come to your defense if you were not... but you are.

    California and other states already have in excess of 500 miles of border wall, today... before Trump.

    http://www.politico.com/story/2017/09/26/drug-enforcement-chief-trump-rosenberg-243174

    Acting DEA chief quits his post in protest of Drumpf's lack of respect for the rule of law;

    early last month, Rosenberg had sent an unusual agency-wide memo that essentially rebuked the president. The email followed a suggestion by Drumpf at a law enforcement-focused speech on Long Island that police were being “too nice” to suspects.​

    Former Astronaut's Open Letter To President Trump,
    Calling His NFL Comments 'Reprehensible'


    former NASA astronaut and National Football League player Leland Melvin posted an open letter to President Donald Trump on Facebook, criticizing many of the president's recent comments and tweets
    regarding NFL players who kneel during the national anthem as a form of protest.

    Melvin specifically criticized the discrepancy between

    Trump's condemnation of Kaepernick's actions and
    the president's earlier comments about the participants at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August,
    which resulted in the death of a counterprotester.
    Melvin referenced Trump's comment that there were "nice people" participating in the rally. That comment, "verses what you say in condemnation of an unarmed black man peacefully protesting by exercising his constitutional First Amendment rights by silently taking a knee, is appalling, unnerving and reprehensible,"

    Blatant lies
    Trump's comment that the response to Puerto Rico's disaster has been amazing.

    Acting Homeland Secretary Duke says that she is very satisfied w the recovery effort, calls the PR recovery effort a good news story / criticizes reporting by media


    the unvarnished truth
    General Russell Honoree, The Army general credited with fixing the response to Hurricane Katrina is bashing President Trump’s response to the devastation in Puerto Rico.

    This is Bull ****
    Katrina was much smaller than PR; within a week, we had 20,000 federal troops. Not federal workers, federal troops.” “I had 20 ships and over 240 helicopters,”

    this is the 8th day after disaster hit PR, there are just a few federal workers, no military troops, no ships, no helicopters. to help move people and distribute food/water. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nat...nse-slams-trump-puerto-rico-article-1.3528084

    http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/29/polit...aria-san-juan-mayor-trump-response/index.html

    The major of San Juan slams the comment by the Acting Homeland Secretary Duke


    damn it, this is not a good news story.
    this is a story of people dying, no power/electricity, no ability to distribute food/water
