All of the climate change data was taken down from the government website yesterday. The Donald's on a roll already.

And ya, both my wife and son are going to get royally screwed if the ACA gets destroyed without a decent replacement plan. Currently we pay $450 a month for Linda's healthcare and Mike get's his free because of his disability - though he just get's bottom of the barrel coverage - which is a hell of a lot better than nothing.

Guess he drained the swamp after all. :rofl:

My body is ready for the anti-war protests to start up again now that it's allowed.

It is a good point that supposed peace activists let Obama get away with murder.

Alternative facts? :laughing::rofl:

Quote:

White House press secretary Sean Spicer's false claims about the size of the crowd at President Donald Trump's inauguration were "alternative facts," a top Trump aide said Sunday.

In an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," host Chuck Todd pressed Trump senior adviser Kellyanne Conway about why the White House on Saturday had sent Spicer to the briefing podium for the first time to claim that "this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period."

"You're saying it's a falsehood. And they're giving -- Sean Spicer, our press secretary -- gave alternative facts," she said.

Todd responded: "Alternative facts aren't facts, they are falsehoods."

Conway then tried to pivot to policy points. But later in the interview, Todd pressed Conway again on why the White House sent Spicer out to make false claims about crowd size, asking: "What was the motive to have this ridiculous litigation of crowd size?"

"Your job is not to call things ridiculous that are said by our press secretary and our president. That's not your job," Conway said.
Todd followed up: "Can you please answer the question? Why did he do this? You have not answered it -- it's only one question."

Conway said: "I'll answer it this way: Think about what you just said to your viewers. That's why we feel compelled to go out and clear the air and put alternative facts out there."

By far the lamest Trump/media battle to date (I'm counting this and the dress shops quote as the same thing). How many people the president said were at his inauguration is going to have zero effect on policy, something that is actually relevant now (since Trump was avoidant any other time policy came up). I hope the day comes where they both learn to pick their battles. Freaking out over pointless things like this adds more noise to the picture and makes it easier to ignore it when there's a legitimate reason to freak out.

Holy **** you two agreed on something, though I suspect any subsequent posts will reveal that this is in fact an illusion and ****posting will ensue.

^^^^^^

His pick for Secretary of Education. :laughing:
