Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.

β€’ No law enforcement background
β€’ No intelligence work

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

There is literally not one single person on the planet who:
1. Knows a little about #Iran; and
2. Believes that this statement is true.

You'd know the claim was false if you'd simply read a newspaper at some point in the past year.

The man who said it has access to the best intel in the world.

Iran kills 7 American soldiers after being attacked by the United States without justification and is a "barbaric and terrorist" regime.

The United States kills 150 Iranian school girls for no reason and is on the side of goodness and right.

Yeah, right, Lindsey, you lying drunk.

Kristi Noem Misled Congress About Corey Lewandowski’s Role in DHS Contracts Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Noem denied that Corey Lewandowski had any role in approving contracts. But internal DHS records and interviews with current and former agency staffer...

Kristi Noem personally approved all DHS contracts over a certain threshold.

But before the contracts reached her, they had to be approved by political appointees. Lewandowski was typically the last to OK a contract before Noem, DHS officials said.

Anyone who can play Der Schwanendreher is a friend, even if we never meet. PS, I just posted a comment in response to a WSJ from another Dan Griswold, apparently not on Blue Sky. Thus found you. PS: How about The Four Temperaments, or the viola concerto itself? All favorites here. Hi from PNW.

Trade with China has been tough
on certain U.S. companies, but for
most Americansβ€”including farmers,
high-tech exporters and consumersβ€”
the consequences have been positive. /End
