Want to discredit Donald Trump? Show his base he's part of the elite
That Democrats have allowed Palin to beat them to the anti-Trump punch shows they are doing their jobs terribly, if at all. If they want to beat Trump, they had better start hitting him where it will hurt.

Where are the democrats on the left speaking out against this madman's behavior. Only Bernie Sanders is speaking out against this farce?!?! Here we are focusing on sharing/spreading news about this fuck and there's no news about who's speaking out against his shite - wtf...

The letter to the Environmental Protection Agency from Attorney General Scott Pruitt of Oklahoma carried a blunt accusation: Federal regulators were grossly overestimating the amount of air pollution caused by energy companies drilling new natural gas wells in his state.
But Mr. Pruitt left out one critical point. The three-page letter was written by lawyers for Devon Energy, one of Oklahoma’s biggest oil and gas companies, and was delivered to him by Devon’s chief of lobbying.

Now selected by Trump to run the EPA....this guy will be in charge of keeping your air and water clean.
- big article. not a thing about the overestimation or process or explanation or counter argument... instead they focused on typical partisan noisedeathboy
- What's the counter argument for letting oil companies run the government?yuekit
- This is pure corporate cronyism even if you don't care about the environmental issues.yuekit
- its cronyism. but remember that its two sided competitive cronyism. you have business interests on both sidesdeathboy

- Great another climate denier...this administration is going to be a epic disaster from top to bottom.utopian
- yuekit do you think this is solid unbiased journalism? no weight to any particular partisan side?deathboy

- If someone writes an article about corruption, does half the article need to be devoted to coming up with reasons why corruption is a good thing?yuekit
- no but it must give equal weight to parties involved in corruption. i think its obvious the article is written with partisan bias, id call this grade A contentdeathboy
- creation. its not half assed, it has minimal research focused on its bias. it touches just enough for feeling while keeping the narrative hazydeathboy
- The NYT is the paper that broke the Clinton email story originally...so it's not as if they never criticize Democrats.yuekit
- what i would depict as good journalism for it would be the measures. see what measures were and wether he was fighting against corrupt regulationsdeathboy
- or wether he was fighting against regulations that made sense.than go in to see what he believes, but i preferred to choose associations over evidencedeathboy
- says plenty about the objective of the article. to me this is fake news. partisan content creation for media agency. media hires pro left & right to write suchdeathboy
- garbage soley to generate clicks and sell ads. hell i can see the copy head saying you write pro on this and you neg on this by noon. journalism mostly deaddeathboy
- but I, = * but he(author)... I dont fall for associations * collar pop*deathboy
- lol...he copied and pasted a lobbyist press release while being paid by taxpayers. How is that not corruption or real news?yuekit

Trump's Attorney General prepares for war on legal weed
http://www.politico.com/magazine…
With little more than the stroke of his own pen, the new attorney general will be able to arrest growers, retailers and users, defying the will of more than half the nation’s voters.
Proponents of legalization across the country are panicking as they reckon with how quickly a Reagan-era throwback in the attorney general’s office will be able to dismantle more than a decade of progress.
- Ah, the old War On Drugs as distraction for ineptitude gambit.face_melter
- The future looks promising...Maaku
- Wouldn't this create an urgent need to force legalization on the federal level?dorkKn1ght
- why are conservatives so afraid of weed?inteliboy

war on drugs...an epic failure
of biblical proportions!utopian - Liberals don't mind killing babies, but please don't take away their weed.omg

Fast-food CEO who says machines are the answer to rising wages is expected to be named Trump's next labor secretary
Puzder is a vocal opponent of raising the minimum wage and of the Affordable Care Act, arguing that the policies result in lower employment rates. Puzder said fast-food workers could be replaced with kiosks and other automated technology to offset the cost of wages. "I want to try it," Puzder said of automated restaurants. "With government driving up the cost of labor, it's driving down the number of jobs."
Puzder has also been a harsh critic of President Barack Obama's new overtime rules, which are designed to raise wages for millions of the country's lowest-paid workers.
- Gonna happen anyways. Factory workers will be obsolete. So will delivery / truck drivers. Better get your shit in order because the future is happening.severian

- It's about Making America Great Again.omg
- Ah, so that's how you interpret "divided states of america" then. Go figure.monospaced
- you angry?omg
- That Trump is going to be president? I guess it's a little unsettling, but I'm laughing at you.monospaced
- the country would be just as divided if Hillary got in... what's your point, mono?PonyBoy
- That the person of the year cover isn't acceptance. It literally says "divided" instead of united. Hillary has nothing to do with it.monospaced
- you're right—she doesn't—i'm talking about the 'divided' country... the 'divided' people if-you-will. If Hillz won... they'd be just as divided... yes?PonyBoy
- That's beside the point completely. I didn't write the cover of the magazine, TIME did. Ask them if you want to be mad at someone.monospaced
- I'm only pointing out that the Person of the Year cover isn't a tribute in any positive way. It's not "acceptance" as the image states. That's all.monospaced
- lol.. god's honest truth... the stupid 'denial, anger...' thing was scrolled off my screen when I first replied, mono... ignore me. LOL just now seeing it
<3PonyBoy - i truly am retarded :)PonyBoy
- (and I agree with you... it's not 'acceptance' if the country is divided)PonyBoy
- It's all good.monospaced
- Mono, you're a denialist. You didn't even read the article. "person of the year" is a tribute. The country being divided is the state he will receive it.omg
- lol omfg okaymonospaced
- haha.omg

On Campus, Trump Fans Say They Need ‘Safe Spaces’
Conservative students who voted for Mr. Trump say that even though their candidate won, their views are not respected. Some are adopting the language of the left, saying they need a “safe space” to express their opinions — a twist resented by left-leaning protesters.
For conservative students like Ms. Deletka, the messages from university officials, seemingly assuming that everyone on campus was upset about the election result, were particularly offensive.
- The precious lil' snowflakes now need a safe space...how cute:)utopian

- Cucks, libtards, bleeding heart, commie, socialist - that's what they call Dems. What are they called?whatthefunk

Don't Be a Sucker - 1947
In this anti-fascist film produced by US Military in the wake of WWII, the producers deconstructs the politically motivated social engineering of Germany by the Nazi regime.- "Remember that when you hear this kind of talk -- somebody's going to get something out of it, and it isn't going to be you."whatthefunk
- Drumpf supporters can NOT comprehend these simple facts as we know as true. - HayoHitlerutopian
- I wonder if they had terrorists back in 1947. I know the World Trade Center wasn't even born yet.omg
- There had terrorists in 1947...they were called Nazis.utopian
- "They had" - Hayyyooooutopian
- Luckily for the Germans of 1947, they were on their side.omg
- Terrorists in 2016 want to kill you these days.omg
- If you can separate the KKK from all Christians then we can separate ISIS terrorists from all Muslims, or no OMG?whatthefunk
- Timothy McVeigh, Dylann Roof, Ted Kaczynski, Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Adam Lanza - all terrorists, no?whatthefunk
- sure you can. justify the killing of innocent women and children in the tenets of religion and sympathize with the teachings of death to infidels.omg
- You just described the philosophy of the KKK/Alt Right, correct?whatthefunk
- then you can separate the terrorists from the religion.omg
- Don't be a sucker is all...whatthefunk
- I would be describing that which connects the Islamic extremists to justify their actions within their religion.omg
- Your rhetoric is so illogically disjointed that it's impossible for one to construct a rational response/argument. Carry on...whatthefunk
- That's because you posted a double question in the middle of me answering your first question.omg
- t'rump' rolling...whatthefunk
- Though there is no need to bring in McVeigh and other white faced terrorists if you're goal is to stop the importation of Islamic terrorism.omg
- Unfortunately there are no two separate groups trying to self police their own. When only one group polices, they face illegitimate criticism of racism.omg
- ugh, phrases like "their own" and "one group" are so loaded that it speaks directly to the video. Don't be like Hans...whatthefunk
- What would Hans do? Make America Hans Again? http://i.imgur.com/t…whatthefunk
- @omg - you do know the terrorist threat is way less than MSM has led you to believe, right? I thought you had no faith in MSM.fadein11
- lol at omg saying the nazis were on the side of the Germans, as if there weren't tons of Jews and others there who were terrorized and killed.monospaced
- @mono- i’m laughing at when you choose your religious beliefs. one moment you’re god fearing, the next your god loving.omg
- @fadein11 - your idea that terrorism does not exist is false.omg
- omg you will never find an instance of me believing in God, so stop making shit up pleasemonospaced
- @omg - I didn't say it doesn't exist but the threat is way less in the West than in the 1970s for example. The chances of you being affected are miniscule.fadein11
- Wow - you swallowed the MSM lie entirely.fadein11
- @fadein- i see you're much better at protecting the terrorists than protecting the innocent people of this country.omg
- MSM wants you to believe that for every terrorist killer, is someone who was painfully mistreated and needs to cuddled and cared for.omg
