I think that they don’t believe the media that is telling them that Trump Jr. admitted that. Maybe they don’t use Twitter or don’t believe that it’s really his account or something.
Anything that conflicts with their worldview must be wrong somehow.

Well, not if he gives any answer that contains an implicit criticism of Trump. (Which he knows very well). Because if Trump’s vindictive eye turns on Ryan, it will be “Subreddit and Breitbarters, Assemble!” and they will commence to (try to) destroy him.
… and the craven traitorous cowards have not yet figured out he would happily destroy them anyway, just to feed his diseased ego???
OK, so then they’re stupid too.

Now you’ll be able to open carry your knives and swords in Texas.

There is now a lobbying group pushing the idea that knifes and swords are covered by the second amendment.

I guess profits are down in the knife and sword industry.
Anyone who feels that there’s a genuine need to wear their Ninja sword to the corner store is probably someone who shouldn’t be playing with sharp things.
Too commonplace. I want Mjolnir. And a flaming axe. And a belt made of skulls
Jesus.
Someone this stupid should not be allowed to posses matches, or be allowed out without their name and address pinned to a card on their shirt.
Not a problem. Given that it’s fire season here in California it’s already illegal for him to have matches without approval from his local sheriff. And I have no doubt the local constabulary can recite his address from memory.
I never thought I would agree with Steve Bannon on anything, but I believe he hit the nail right on the head here:
Yes, I liked that too. The Trumpistas may be evil, but Paul Ryan is simply a pusillanimous piece of squirmy little shit.

Paul Ryan: I’ve Been Dreaming About Kicking Poors Off Medicaid Since I Was a Drunk Frat Boy
At the National Review Institute’s Ideas Summit on Friday, House Speaker Paul Ryan had an interesting exchange with National Review editor Rich Lowry about the AHCA’s changes to Medicaid:
*Lowry*: You have been very clear for years—and we’ve seen compelling PowerPoint presentations—about how the entitlements and entitlements growing out of control is driving the country into a ditch on the debt. And we have a president of the United States who basically seems pledged not to touch entitlements. Where does that leave us?
*Ryan*: So, the health care entitlements are the big, big, big drivers of our debt. There are three. Obamacare, Medicaid, and Medicare. Two out of three are going through Congress right now. So, Medicaid—sending it back to the states, capping its growth rate. We’ve been dreaming of this since you and I were drinking out of a keg.
Yeah, that’s a side-splitter for sure.
Interesting results on a new poll: 55% of Trump voters say they don’t believe Donald Trump Jr met with a Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign. Which is something Donald Trump Jr has said he did.
Majority of Trump supporters ‘don’t believe Trump Jr attended Russian lawyer meeting’
Heh, that IS dumb. Everyone knows the locals call it Barsoom.
My favorite part is this bit of word salad:

I get the distinct impression that the “some people” in question suspect NASA of delivering child slaves to the Martians.
Followup on the “Slammin’ Greg” Gianforte assault story:
Rep. Greg Gianforte, the Montana Republican who pleaded guilty to assaulting a reporter the day before his election, does not want to be treated like a common criminal ― for more than a month, he has been quietly fighting a court order requiring him to get fingerprinted and photographed at a local jail.
If you don’t want to be treated like a common criminal, maybe you should not commit crimes , jackass.

He was striking a blow for journalistic freedom!*
*The freedom from being reported on by journalists.
NRA goes all out racist, claiming Black Lives Matter are out to kill white people.
Grant Stinchfield, a host at the NRA's online television network, made more incendiary comments about Black Lives Matter activists allegedly stoking "racial hatred" against white people.Via Media Matters, Stinchfield began a segment on his show...
The thing that pissed me off was the answer. When pressed with “would you rule that out?” the guy makes some response that sounded a bit like “extremely unlikely.”
No, goddamit, “No!” That is the answer. Get a guy up there who can speak person. If the likelihood is small enough to underflow a common calculator, tell him straight out that you would indeed rule it out. Enough with this contract-pure accurate language that only in the end serves to confuse people.

He’s playing politics. If he goes up there and says that’s crazy talk, NASA gets defunded.
