[The Miami bridge collapse embarrasses me as an engineer – such screw-ups are supposed to occur only in third world countries. And then we find that this was a 'shovel ready' project from the past, designed by the nearby university, that took five years of bureaucratic buffeting before being awarded to a problem-plagued construction firm. And it turns out that the Left did another number on CIA's Deputy Director Haspel nominated by Trump to be the new CIA head. They lied about her involvement in past waterboardings by the agency, which even if true, is to me and mine no reason to doubt her ability to lead that organization. gjr]

By the time President Trump’s presidency is over, one of the biggest pieces of fake news we will look back on is when we were told by the media that Trump was good for the media business. According to what is happening in a place called the real world, the truth is that business for the media is horrible.

Before team 0 can get their talking points for lefties distributed lets have a little perspective and a reality check on the IG recommendation please. McCabe was found to have lied under oath on multiple occasions and his wife got 750k from team Clinton. McCabe willfully leaked classified information to media on multiple occasions. RECOMENDATION – Fire his ass without benefits.
In the last year there were 19 FBI fired for lying once, none of them under oath. Equal justice for all!

Look at those cheek bones. Heidi must be Cherokee.
“Chief among Warren’s Democratic critics is Heitkamp of North Dakota, a co-sponsor of the deregulatory bill who is in a tight reelection battle this year. Heitkamp and Warren sit next to each other on the Senate Banking Committee, but their perspectives on the bill could not be further apart. In a phone interview on Monday, Heitkamp told me Warren was misleading the public about the bill and that the debate exposed a fundamental divide between Democrats who represent rural states and those who hail from more urban and suburban areas. “She doesn’t live where I live,” Heitkamp said of her Massachusetts colleague.”
“I think it’s really unfortunate that she has misled people regarding this bill,” she continued. “Some of the things that she has said are incorrect, and I cannot let the legislative history of this legislation be what Elizabeth Warren says it is.”
