    Default So now the Trump team wants to break tradition

    and throw the White House Press Core out of the White House under the pretense of opening it up to more journalists, in other words, as similar to last week, stack the room with supporters so that any meeting with the press to include daily briefings will resemble rallies more than press conferences. It''s obvious a move to control, don't want those difficult inquiries arising

    So what has been good for the last nine President's isn't good enough for this one?

    Obama had his fluff guys in there asking him, "What has enchanted you about being President?"

    Trump can have his way as well, whatever atmosphere he wants.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    He needed time to look up those big words like 'enchanted'.

    Slump and his sheep pride themselves on how he breaks the rules etc, etc including how he talks to the media.

    Fine.

    If it's OK for him to break the rules, then they should adjust their own rules too, by openly calling him exactly what he is right to his face... a ridiculous, obnoxious, illegitimate, commie loving pig.

    When will the pinheads face the facts....

    There's a new sheriff in town, kiddies
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.
