Next time, try employing dozens of undocumented workers in your businesses for a couple decades and falsify their work permits. Oh, and aim higher than UN Ambassador. 😶 So what's the problem? I'm sure he screened them to keep out the killers and rapists.

The "best people"? www.bloomberg.com/graphics/trump-administration-conflicts/Shaub found that the attitude at the Trump White House was different. “To have someone like Don McGahn, the White House counsel, adopt an attitude of ‘We’re going to do the bare minimum of what is legal, and we’re going to do things that are questionable, as long as there is an argument that, maybe, it’s legal, is completely at odds with the way the program has been run for forty years, because we’ve all understood that there is a practice and a body of things that you do to make these bare-bones rules work,” he said. www.newyorker.com/news/ryan-lizza/how-trump-broke-the-office-of-government-ethicswww.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2018/06/20/senators-scold-wilbur-ross-over-ethics-issues-following-forbes-report/#1f3fcfea4104Second time Ross has not reported accurately, no soup for you! A federal ethics agreement required that Ross divest stock worth between $1,000 and $15,000 in BankUnited by the end of May 2017, or within 90 days of the Senate confirming him to the Commerce post.

Another white supremacist Trump supporter arrested. I assume you Trump supporters/GOPers are happy with this? Afterall, the press is the "enemy of the people" and Dear Leader must be protected at all costs -- funny, no tweet from Dear Leader. . . no response from McConnell and McCarthy. Will some reporter seek a comment? Hasson’s commitment to destruction appeared heightened in recent weeks, according to prosecutors. He created a list of “traitors” and targets on Jan. 19 in an Excel spreadsheet on his work computer, they said, which was created two days after he conducted several Internet inquiries: 8:54 a.m.: “what if trump illegally impeached” 8:57 a.m.: “best place in dc to see congress people” 8:58 a.m.: “where in dc to congress live” 10:39 a.m.: “civil war if trump impeached” 11:26 a.m.: “social democrats usa” www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/self-proclaimed-white-nationalist-planned-mass-terror-attack-government-says-i-am-dreaming-of-a-way-to-kill-almost-every-last-person-on-earth/2019/02/20/61daf6b8-3544-11e9-af5b-b51b7ff322e9_story.html?utm_term=.99ed41f76162The deluded pursuit of a masculine ideal is just one of the many ways in which Breivik, who received Norway’s maximum sentence of 21 years in prison when his trial ended in 2012, was a model for Hasson, an avowed white nationalist who wrote that he was “dreaming of a way to kill almost every last person on the earth.” The 49-year-old resident of Silver Spring targeted CNN and MSNBC personalities and political figures such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), whom authorities said he identified as “poca warren," borrowing President Trump’s epithet for the lawmaker. Hasson was arrested Friday on weapons and drugs charges. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/02/21/they-hate-white-males-norwegian-mass-murderer-inspired-coast-guard-officer-plotting-terror-feds-say/?utm_term=.724b828e9b27

Has there ever been a more corrupt and morally bankrupt presidential administration in American history? More of the 'best people"? The White House is "looking into" a decade-old Florida case in which Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta, then a federal prosecutor, potentially violated the law by keeping underage female victims of billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein in the dark about his plea deal to avoid federal prosecution. U.S. District Court Judge Kenneth Marra on Thursday ruled that federal prosecutors broke the law by failing to keep Epstein's victims adequately informed about the billionaire's plea deal, and he mentioned numerous times Acosta's direct involvement in the 2008 case. Acosta was the U.S. attorney for Southern Florida at the time. www.politico.com/story/2019/02/22/alexander-acosta-jeffrey-epstein-1179958(N.B. Judge Marra was appointed by George W. Bush so Acosta can't pull the ridiculous Roger Stone "Obama appointed" judge defense).

"I know more about ISIS than the generals do!" -- DJT (November 2015) When the commander of U.S. forces in Europe, General Curtis Scaparrotti, met privately with members of Congress at the Munich Security Conference, last weekend, Senator Lindsey Graham finished the meeting with a blunt question. Graham asked Scaparrotti what impact President Trump’s order to withdraw all U.S. forces from Syria by April would have on America’s allies there. A participant in the meeting told me, “Lindsey asked him, ‘Is it fair to say if this is carried out to the end, we will not have any allies? Would it be fair to say it would lead to a disaster?’ ” The answer was equally blunt: “ ‘Yes, sir.’ ” After I expressed surprise at the stark reply from a uniformed commander, the participant reminded me that military officials are obliged to advise members of Congress appropriately, under a provision in the 1986 Goldwater-Nichols Act. “Lindsey said, ‘Would it be fair to say this would be a disaster?’ Not a problem, but a disaster. Answer: ‘Yes, sir.’ ” www.newyorker.com/news/letter-from-trumps-washington/audience-of-one-why-flattery-works-in-trumps-foreign-policy?utm_campaign=aud-dev&utm_source=nl&utm_brand=tny&utm_mailing=TNY_Daily_022219&utm_medium=email&bxid=5bea0da82ddf9c72dc8e1a0c&user_id=49123534&utm_term=TNY_Daily

In Trumpese, the more you lie, the better you are. That's why Trump, in his own mind, is the best person that ever was or ever will be. As for Acosta, he can't possibly survive this. I give him 72 hours to resign.

Looking at the trail record, maybe Trump thinks the United Nations is another beauty pageant...

"I'm not a scientist/expert, and I don't believe in employing any either." She certainly did all the required things to get Trump to notice her.

Bone Spurs Trump finally going to Vietnam -- fifty years too late! Trump would have been a drag on any unit. The man is a coward and vastly overestimates his own ability/importance while throwing any- and everyone under the bus to protect himself. In all likelihood, he saved American lives by dodging the draft.
