Who Crunched These Shifty Numbers? Bernie Madoff?
President Trump's budget includes simple accounting error that adds up to a $2 trillion oversight.
Under the proposed budget released Tuesday, the Trump Administration's proposed tax cuts would boost economic growth enough to pay for $1.3 trillion in spending by 2027. But the tax cuts are also supposed to be revenue-neutral, meaning that trillion dollars is already supposed to pay for the money lost from the tax cuts.

Flashback to the late 70s

I met some Turks at an ad agency around 1977. Over a business lunch they were telling me about their country, Muslim religion, etc...

They told me of a legend among Muslims in Turkey. It revolved around a glowing orb. The orb was stolen by the Vatican and hence the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The orb is deep in the bowels of the Vatican supposedly. Once the Turks get the orb back they will return to their former glory.

For the past 40 years, I never knew quite what to believe about that legend. I often wondered if they were joking with me.

But then I saw this photo online this morning and burst out laughing.

White House Staff Reacts To Trump Going Overseas

Trump told Russians firing 'nut job' Comey eased pressure on him: report
President Trump told Russian officials his firing of FBI Director James Comey relieved “great pressure” on him, calling the former FBI chief a “nut job,” The New York Times reported Friday.
"I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job," Trump said, according to a report based on a summary of the meeting obtained by the Times.

Russians are our friends.

California Congressman Warned About Russians
The F.B.I. warned a Republican congressman in 2012 that Russian spies were trying to recruit him, officials said, an example of how aggressively Russian agents have tried to influence Washington politics.
The congressman, Dana Rohrabacher of California, has been known for years as one of Moscow’s biggest defenders in Washington and as a vocal opponent of American economic sanctions against Russia. He claims to have lost a drunken arm-wrestling match with the current Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin, in the 1990s. He is one of President Trump’s staunchest allies on Capitol Hill.

Boris Yeltsin, the first President of the Russian Federation, in party mode. June 10, 1996. Good times after the Wall came down and before Putin.

Biden Looking To Further Divide Democrats. Sad.
Former Vice President Joe Biden still isn't done with Hillary Clinton and the 2016 election -- and that may be why he refuses to rule out running again for president in 2020.

When Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden boast that they would have done better than Hillary, I hope they realize it makes THEM look bad, not her. - Peter Daou

This Is How A Special Prosecutor Treated The Clintons
We Arkansans who remember the assault of Kenneth Starr and his army upon our state are amused at the current party leader who’s whining about being “mistreated.” The tragic trail of families disrupted, reputations defamed, and lives destroyed by this man and his legions, will remain in collective memories for years to come. They include those of a dear lady who witnessed her personal library subpoenaed because some books “contained coded messages,” according to a Starr operative. These consisted of dates with suspicious lettering beside them, such as “tg, pc, mp, ml, and fc.” The worst James Bond villain couldn’t have posed a greater threat to our national security. The only thing missing was crime-scene tape.
