Some awesome headlines this morning that should make you feel proud to be an American...
*WhatsApp end-to-end encryption ensures only you and the person you're communicating with can read what's sent, and nobody in between, not even WhatsApp.... Nice
Evangelical leader believes it's worth overlooking murder as long as the murdered buys enough weapons from us to kill more people... That's not exactly consistent with their stance on other issues to put it mildly

More of "the best people"? Or the clash with the wife of Pete Sessions sealed his fate. The White House has removed the acting chief of a small foreign aid office less than two months after he was put in place to quell controversy over the Trump administration’s use of the agency as a source of jobs for political supporters, according to interviews and an internal email obtained by The Washington Post. www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/acting-leader-removed-from-agency-the-white-house-has-used-to-provide-jobs-to-trump-supporters/2018/10/18/d98215d4-d2e8-11e8-8c22-fa2ef74bd6d6_story.html?utm_term=.b28ae9b73807And from the most corrupt administration in US history. And the ham handed attempt to fix the investigation by appointing an unqualified neophyte to take over the DOI IG craters. More of the GOP's "best people." Great government oversight, corrupt GOPers!!! The Interior Department’s watchdog found that Zinke violated department policy by allowing his wife to travel in government vehicles and instructing his security detail to drive an associate to the airport. The decision to take an unarmed security detail on his overseas vacation cost taxpayers $25,000, the report found. Interior Department officials said Thursday that they did not approve the hiring of a political appointee as the agency’s acting watchdog, calling the announcement of her move by Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson “100 percent false information.” The backtracking on Suzanne Israel Tufts’s move two days after it drew widespread scrutiny deepened questions about how and why she was supposedly chosen to lead Interior’s inspector general’s office, which is currently conducting at least four investigations into Secretary Ryan Zinke. Last week investigators issued two subpoenas for documents to entities tied to the probes, according to two individuals familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-administration-does-about-face-on-its-own-announcement-that-top-aide-at-hud-would-be-interiors-watchdog/2018/10/18/d90bbf7a-d2fb-11e8-8c22-fa2ef74bd6d6_story.html?utm_term=.a3358aa0afb3It shouldn't be a surprise that the party that hates government is so bad at governing. Corrupt as the day is long.

Important to remember that Prince Jared's only qualifications are being married to the President's daughter. It's not Democracy, it's an embarrassment....

Can't wait for Don the Con and his clown cohorts buy into the Saudi cover story since it obviously was "rogue killers.". Watch for the ignorant gullible Trump apologists and Fox propaganda network to play along. Assume the Trumpistas who believe he actually possesses a moral compass will still support his agenda.

They're pretty much already doing that, no?

In other ridiculous news, Hillary is allegedly considering a 2020 run...
Too funny...
She is like a child who keeps touching a hot stove and is then surprised when it hurts.
Hillary—News Flash—People across the country, Republican ad Democrat loathe you. You are polling worse than Trump. Let that sink in.

Let that sink in. Much like they did with Adlai Stevenson in 1960, who was seeking a third straight nomination for president and threatened to usurp JFK at the convention, the Democratic elders need to pull HRC aside and tell her that her time has passed and stay out of the way. Otherwise she will run and Trump will laugh all the way to 2020 (until the SDNY says otherwise).

While Trump provides cover for the Saudi’s to murder a journalist this is what’s high on you’re radar?
Ok...
Shocked that headline paints a different picture than the above post...

Erdogan as one authoritarian may have the other two authoritarians over a barrel if he actually produces a verified audiotape. The question is whether Erdogan would rather keep the audiotape undisclosed to gain concessions from the other two authoritarians. (MBS = Mister Bone Saw; DJT = Mister Bone Spurs) ISTANBUL — A spokesman for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s ruling party vowed Saturday that Turkey would “uncover what has happened” to Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, hours after Saudi authorities said that the Washington Post contributing columnist had been killed earlier this month during a fistfight inside the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. The Saudi explanation — that an argument in the consulate led to a fatal brawl — is at odds with the conclusions of Turkish investigators, who believe that Khashoggi was deliberately killed by a team of Saudi agents who were dispatched to Istanbul. “We don’t blame anyone in advance, but we do not consent to this being covered up,” said the ruling party spokesman, Omar Celik, according to the semiofficial Anadolu news agency. www.washingtonpost.com/world/circumstances-of-jamal-khashoggis-death-will-not-becovered-up-turkish-official-says/2018/10/20/12b9344c-d45e-11e8-a275-81c671a50422_story.html?utm_term=.4159ae352467

Another example for some of the concern for human life ending at birth.
