I only started following it during Obama’s terms and back then it was totally non-partisan. It only posted facts of what was going on. Absolutely nothing as far as any political jabs either against Obama and certainly none coming from Obama.

Mainly it was a written record of what the Press Secretary had said that day. With videos of various political functions like the Pardoning of the turkey, XMas trees, birthdays etc.

That’s what I figured, but I didn’t want to assume. ☹

Got interrupted by the Mister (he answered an email from me … his reply was weird… 4 email later he just called me 😃 ) anyway I looked around and found they had retired Obama’s White House page but it’s still there.

Contrast and compare.

Well, what 'ja expect? He’s not the leader of the American people. He’s not even leader of the Republicans. The only thing he’s leader of is TrumpCo.

Individual 1 tweeting his explanation as to why he fired Colonel Vindman:  
“Fake News @CNN & MSDNC keep talking about “Lt. Col.” Vindman as though I should think only how wonderful he was. Actually, I don’t know him, never spoke to him, or met him (I don’t believe!) but, he was very insubordinate, reported contents of my “perfect” calls incorrectly, &… was given a horrendous report by his superior, the man he reported to, who publicly stated that Vindman had problems with judgement, adhering to the chain of command and leaking information. In other words, “OUT”.”

It’s a good thing he added “in my opinion” – otherwise, that would sound somewhat dictatorial.

The way things are going he may get the chance for victory-lap tweets about the DOW blasting through 25K—and then in a bit, 20K. Maybe even some lower numbers.

And with all the COVID-19 madness and stock market plummeting and general medical madness going on, Our Dear Leader has this to tweet, as of about 30 minutes ago:

> [@](#):
>
> Many Republican Senators want me to Veto the FISA Bill until we find out what led to, and happened with, the illegal attempted “coup” of the duly elected President of the United States, and others!

I don’t say too much politically around here or IRL publicly, but seriously, what the fuck?

Nothing new to see here. Donny Two-scoops’ definition of ‘illegal’ is ‘something I don’t like.’

Actually, it’s something of an improvement as he didn’t complain the impeachment was unconstitutional.

How many times could anyone have posted this in the last three years and two months? Every day.

I guarantee if he tweeted he was resigning the markets would immediately rise sharply as would world morale.

Actual tweet from our actual president:

I mean, I’ve checked it a number of times. It’s not a parody account.

TV ratings. Another 2000 Americans die today and all this shithead can think of is his personal TV ratings.
