Doily Gnuz – All about protecting the covfefe table

Made it to Frigga’s day, and here’s the gnuz that’s fit to chew on, albeit somewhat fatty and grisly.

EPA head launching initiative to ‘critique’ climate science h/t The Hill
The party of the stoopid striking again, any one care to do a ‘critique’ of the Buybull?

And

A new report raises some big questions about Michael Flynn and Russian hackers h/t Vox
Flip Him, Flip Flynn, let him spill his guts about the Trump campaign, including the OrangeShitGibbon being up to their assholes in this…

Finally,

Curveball! Trump Suddenly Endorses Obamacare Repeal And Delay h/t TPM
This is a great idea. For the Democrats who plan on taking back the House in 2018 and the Senate and Presidency in 2020. For America, the nation, it sucketh.

Almost Daily Gnuz!

Welcome to Thor’s day, and here’s the gnuz!

Four New Polls Show Very Little Support For Republican Trumpcare h/t C&L
Yes, but the One Percenters own the R’s (and some D’s as well), so it’s all good…for the 1%…

And

GOP infighting erupts over healthcare bill h/t The Hill
Ah, the sweet smell of self destruction… or was that Napalm in the Morning…Hard to tell with the Republicking congrust.

Finally, an interesting take from Vox on single payer

And Here’s the Gnuz that’s fit to print (electronically, that is)…

The Memo: Trump faces enormous test with healthcare bill h/t The Hill
One word:
FusterCluck

And

Fox And WSJ: Trump Could Learn Something From How CNN Retracted Their Story h/t
C&L
Oh, please. As if Trump could learn anything…from anyone or anybody…ever

Finally,

Trump bombed at GOP Senate health care meeting because he was clueless about what was in the bill h/t Raw Story
Trump makes incurious George look like Albert Einstein.

And here is some of the Gnuz that’s fit to print today!

McConnell allies confident in healthcare win h/t The Hill
I doubt it. The Republicans, having forsaken the art of compromise since Newt Gingrich’s Contract on America, can’t get the outer edges of their party to agree on anything. They are incapable of governing.

And

‘Trump Is What Happens When a Political Party Abandons Ideas’ h/t Politico
No shit Sherlock.

Finally

Ron Johnson: People With Pre-existing Conditions Are Like ‘Somebody After They Crash Their Car’ h/t C&L
Exhibits A, B, C, D….
As a lung cancer survivor, Senator Johnson, you are despicable. What car crash was I in that I should be denied or have my premiums jacked up for?

And, in today’s not so top stories…
Trump: ‘I just don’t want a poor person’ in top economic roles h/t The Hill
No Shit Sherlock. What happened to ‘drain the swamp’? Oh…Right… Except for cronies, Wall Street barons and the rest of the One Percenters

And

Three Ideas to Check Trump and Revive the Democratic Party h/t Paul Glastris @ Wa Mo
I personally like #3. Your take?

Finally,

Senate GOP to bring Obamacare repeal bill out of the shadows h/t Politico
My best guess is that it’s close enough to the disaster that the House rolled out to get a conference compromise done.
As much as it’s going to hurt, it may be necessary for the nation to feel the excruciating pain that is coming, in order to kick the R’s out of office in ’18 and/or 2020.

Love to see my Senator, Patty Murray stepping up to the piñata to take a few whacks at the R’s over their supposed health careless efforts

Finally,
THE MEMO: For Trump, danger signs in the polls h/t The Hill
We all know polls are not infallible, but the swirling toilet that is Trump’s approval is apparent to those legislators up for re-election in 2018. That would be the HOUSE, and 1/3rd of the Senate, hyeaaa.

In the Gnuz today…

Trump: ‘I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director’ h/t The Hill
It may just be as Rachel Maddow suggested earlier, that Trump doesn’t posess the faculty to understand what he’s doing. He has such a limited grasp and concept of the law, that he commits crimes without knowing what he’s doing.
Or, he’s just plain evil. Or some combination of extreme stupidity and narcissism.

And

‘That is autocracy’: Russian journalist explains how Trump has already set America down a dangerous path h/t Raw Story
Here’s a Russian journalist explaining the Trump paradigm. Would that his supporters would read this and understand who and what they are empowering

Finally,

Incompetence extends to having so little self awareness that you twine the rope with which you hang yourself.

In other significant gnuz…

Nearly 200 Democrats sue Trump citing emoluments clause violation h/t The Hill
I do believe Delaware and Maryland have also filed suit… Could be that people are pissed off about the nepotism, cronyism, and creeping fascism that this prezidunce is bringing with him.

And

WATCH: Conan O’Brien spots a hilarious ‘nervous tic’ that shows when Jeff Sessions is lying h/t Raw Story
I coulda sworn in was when his lips were moving, but yeah….

And

Gingrich: Time to rethink special counsel Mueller h/t The Hill
This, after The Amphipian’s unequivocal praise for the SC “a “superb choice” with an “impeccable” reputation for honesty and integrity”…Something’s changed, like his hiring of qualified investigators…

It’s Monday.

Yes, I know, that’s not gnuz, that’s just depressing.

However, here are a few tidbits to chew on…

NSA Chief Mike Rogers ‘May have his own bomb to drop’ Wednesday   –ht/ C&L

Which brings up the question, would the orange jumpsuit go better with gold or chrome bracelets?

 

And

Filed under ‘do as I say, not as I doo(sic)

 After Calls To ‘Get Down’ To Business, Trump Goes On 23rd Trip To Golf Course –h/t TPM

23 Golf Excursions in 19 weeks of feebly Preziduncing. Some kind of record.

 

Finally,

 Trump: I am calling it a ‘TRAVEL BAN!’ –h/t The Hill

Almost tragicomical that this Prezidunce doesn’t get it. Yes, Mr. Prezidunce, it is a travel ban…applied only to predominantly Muslim nations. Nations whose citizens have no record of committing terrorist acts here in the USA. Your intent is abundantly clear, dumbkoff.

Good Morning all, and Happy First Sunday in June!

In the gnuz today:

Under the heading of ‘watch out what you ask for’ comes this

Trump’s ‘big story’ on unmasking might reveal more on ties to Russia
Perhaps the term ‘unmasking’ confuses our Prezidunce. Methinks he considers it a ‘find the leaker’ exercise. The tweeter machine can lead to unexpected avenues.  h/t The Hill

and

 Trump plans week-long focus on infrastructure, starting with privatizing air traffic control

When I consider necessary infrastructure, my mind conjures up high speed rail, road and bridge repair, and useful stuff like that. About the last thing considered would be a giveaway to corporate greed.  h/t The WaPo

Finally,

  After London attack, Trump urges travel ban, end to political correctness

Ah, yes. The simple explanation. If only we weren’t so damn politically correct, we could round  up all the scary  brown people for a ‘final solution’

Open Thread Y’all, come and get it!

ROGUE NATION
That is what our country has become.
We are now outside the environmental mainstream that understands and agrees on the science that shows the earth warming due to human intervention that has accelerated since the Industrial Age.

The nations that remain in the Paris Climate Accord should consider imposing a damage control fee. It is estimated that this decision, if not reversed, will add .03 degrees to the environment by the turn of the next century.
An appropriate penalty IMHO, would be a 10% surcharge on all products made in this country that are shipped to any abiding nation.
Those monies would be put to use in mitigation efforts against the damages that will be caused by increased erosion, rising sea levels and the human misery caused by the temperature increase.

In other GNUZ;
The Trump administration’s key lackey posits a dubious claim
Trump economic adviser Cohn says coal can be competitive again: CNBC h/t Raw Story
Wait till those coal miners finally get it. Their industry is dead, the JOBS AREN’T COMING BACK

Trump is probably looking at this as an opportunity to have Barron lead the re-negotiation of the Paris Climate Accord, but…
World leaders warn Trump: ‘Paris agreement cannot be renegotiated’ Sorry Barron, you’ll have to wait till you get out of high school to have your turn at Nepotism kick in.
Assuming, of course, your daddy is still the prezidunce. h/t The Hill

And, finally,
This explains a lot
Trump Got Advice From Fox’s Kimberly Guilfoyle Before Withdrawing From Paris Accord h/t C&L
The Low Information Prezidunce.
