Topic: SWAMP DRAINING?Posted By: Technophobe
Subject: SWAMP DRAINING?
Date Posted: September 30 2017 at 2:32pm
This little gem comes from a journalist on the heavily pro-Republican Fox news. So no one try to say it is automatically anti-Trump.
It goes part-way to explaining why Trump won the election.
But, more importantly, it explains what Trump needs to do to preserve that support.
Perhaps, we here can update this thread periodically then look back at the end of his current term and see how well he has done.
http://video.foxnews.com/v/5593516498001/hhs-secretary-tom-price-resigns-over-private-plane-trips" rel="nofollow - HHS Secretary Tom Price resigns over private plane trips
Health and Human Services secretary exits administration amid controversy; John Roberts has details from the White House.
Now that HHS Secretary Tom Price has resigned over his abuse of chartered flights and the taxpayers who funded them, it's helpful both to have some perspective and to see this as a microcosm of why the 2016 election happened.
While it is truly hard to fathom what Price, a smart guy and successful physician, was thinking in charging taxpayers over $1 million on flights since May alone, let’s be honest: His behavior was just the latest example of the longstanding D.C. tradition of taxpayer dollars being abused by "public servants." These abuses have been perpetrated by both Republican and Democrat administrations and members of Congress (Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez’s ongoing federal corruption trial is evidence of that).
What's more painful is the blatant hypocrisy of Price's actions. Not too long ago, then-Congressman Price was calling out Democrats for their use of private jets, calling it yet "another example of fiscal irresponsibility run amok in Congress right now."Price’s apparent laissez-faire attitude at the taxpayers' trough is why the American working class has lost faith in and despises Washington, D.C., and is why many Americans no longer trust their institutions. This is why 2016 happened. This is why people rallied around the idea of "draining the swamp."
But I would put it a little differently: 2016 was really about the American working class waking up to the fact that our system of government -- supposedly of the people, by the people and for the people -- is not working to benefit them, but rather a small ruling class made up of Republicans, Democrats, and their special interest cronies and corrupt consultants.
As this system devolves, the outcome will be despotism -- smiling statism or velvet despotism, but despotism nonetheless. Many of us pay taxes at a rate exceeding 50 percent when federal, state, local, food and gas taxes are combined. Yet many in Washington, D.C. have a mindset of "separate but equal," in which they feel more entitled and more enlightened than the great unwashed masses out in the hinterlands who fund their pay and egregious behavior.
Some years ago, I wrote about https://redstate.dev.townhallcloud.net/nedryun/2012/06/13/american-royalty/" rel="nofollow - the ruling class as "American Royalty ," and it still holds true today. The behavior of Price and many others adds insult to injury by using the working class' hard-earned money to live a lifestyle many of them could never afford. We understand that in just associations, in civilized society, there are taxes to be paid for security and infrastructure and other limited government services. But we fund our government to advocate and protect the rights of the American people, not for government workers to advance their own narrow interests. Government work is supposed to be about service, not living the lifestyle of the rich and famous on taxpayer dollars.
Donald Trump ran on draining the swamp, on rejecting the status quo and business as usual. While I presume Price was given the choice to either resign or be fired, I would tell the president this: Tom Price’s (presumably forced) resignation does not guarantee future change. Price’s behavior is merely a symptom of "Swamp Disease."
What Trump must immediately do, through an Executive Order, is lay down stronger guidelines, standards and practices as to how his Executive Branch and Cabinet members spend taxpayer dollars and government resources. This will not only set the tone for this administration, but will help change the behavior of future administrations. There will be hell to pay for any president who might revoke that order.
In the end, we want public servants, not elected officials, and there is a massive difference between the two. So Mr. President, don’t just address the symptoms of "Swamp Disease." Cure the disease.

The ironic thing about the firing, sorry, the "resignation" of Tom Price is that Trump was upset about how much he'd spent on flights during his tenure. Yet Trump likely spends many times that amount every single weekend he's away from the White House at one of his resorts. Thirty plus weekends since he took office means a lot more taxpayer money wasted than the $500,000 Price allegedly spent.
Did I dream about Trump pledging not to leave the White House or play golf because he'd be so busy?

Their own demise, Satori. It has become obvious, to me at least, that they (Trump's rich supporters) do not give a **** what happens to anyone else and the rest of his voters spring from the few poor folk too stupid to see the facts and easily programable by the bull**** who, therfore, support him whatever he does - as Fox News and his own tweets say he is infallable, incorruptable and probably the "Second coming".

Between 1998 and 1999, Ryan Zinke, then a Navy SEAL Team 6 officer,
traveled to and from his home in Montana and billed the Department
of Defense for his travel expenses. https://theintercept.com/2016/12/20/trumps-pick-for-interior-secretary-was-caught-in-pattern-of-fraud-at-seal-team-6/" rel="nofollow - According to a report last year by Mathew Cole of The Intercept:
Two SEAL officers investigated Zinke’s records and discovered a
yearslong “pattern of travel fraud,” according to two of the sources.
When confronted about the trips, Zinke acknowledged that he spent the
time repairing and restoring a home in Whitefish, Montana, and visiting
his mother, according to two retired SEAL Team 6 leaders. The future
lawmaker eventually told SEAL leaders that the Montana house was where
he intended to live after he retired from the Navy.
After he was warned, he continued the same behavior until he was kicked off the team. That was a light—very
light—punishment for his behavior, which would have resulted in a court
martial for any officer not in the high-profile SEAL Team 6. But he got
away with reimbursing the government a measly $211 for a single trip,
and accepting that commander would be his terminal grade.

These people are very, very vindictive! If you look at everything they've done, it is all aimed at hurting the people who did not support "them" and helping the people who did! Who tries to take health insurance away from the poor, and gives tax breaks to the richest of a country while raising taxes on the poor, who tries to send young men and women that were brought here as children, who've gone to school here, graduated college here, paid taxes here, started businesses here and want nothing more than to be good U.S, citizens back to a country they've never known? Who if they don't outright support, at least idly standby and don't speak out about hate speach, white supremacy, neo-nazi's, hate of Jews, Muslims, Hispanics, Blacks, and anyone else who doesn't espouse their beliefs? The answer is obvious and this must be stopped! This is not the country my family has always fought and died for, it's a country they would have fought and died against! God help us all if we too stand idly by!

According to old Donald Trump tweets, John Bolton shouldn't be US National Security Adviser

In 2013 — long before he was a presidential candidate — Mr Trump tweeted that "all former Bush administration officials should have zero standing on Syria. Iraq was a waste of blood and treasure."
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/375705302382817281" rel="nofollow - https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump" rel="nofollow">Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/375705302382817281" rel="nofollow - 3:41 AM - Sep 6, 2013
Now, as one of those former officials, Mr Bolton is set to become the top US authority on national security.
Not only will he influence US policy in Syria and Iraq, but more immediately and more worryingly, his appointment signals a much tougher US stance against Iran and North Korea.
Even by Bush administration standards he was tough, variously described as a "hawk's hawk" and the most "hawkish of hawks" in Washington.
Mr Bolton is known for his support of using military force against the two rogue states.
As the then-top arms control official, he was a staunch advocate of the 2003 war in Iraq and supported the aggressive use of American power in foreign policy.
NBC News White House correspondent Geoff Bennett says John Bolton is "controversial even in Republican circles."
"He is among the most hawkish of neoconservative hawks," Mr Bennett says.
"He was part of the Bush-Cheney crew that claimed Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.
"He's also a leading hawkish voice on North Korea."

What can we expect from the new US National Security Adviser?
"The risks of a war with Iran or North Korea are now significantly greater than they were this morning," he says.
As a regular media commentator Mr Bolton has advocated hardline positions on stopping Pyongyang from developing and using nuclear weapons against the US.
He was once removed from a US delegation taking part in six-party talks on North Korea after he called then-leader Kim Jong-il a "tyrannical dictator" who ran a country where "life is hell".
The North Korean government responded to his exclusion by saying "such a human scum and bloodsucker is not entitled to take part in the talks."
Mr Bolton has also advocated getting rid of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, a pact that Mr Trump has opposed.
His appointment as Mr Trump's third national security adviser continues a recent trend towards more hawkish advisers likely to support the President's foreign policy views.
And it comes at a crucial time for the Trump administration, as it prepares to make key decisions on both North Korea and Iran.
Mr Bolton is likely to add a harder edge to the upcoming talks between Mr Trump and North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un.
Earlier this year he appeared to oppose such talks happening at all.

Welcome to Trump's new world order
"If we pay heed to the lessons of history, talking to North Korea would be fruitless," Mr Bolton tweeted in February.
But he shares Donald Trump's views on the 2015 deal to rein in Iran's nuclear ambitions. In January, Bolton described the deal as a "strategic mistake."
"This deal needs to be abrogated and America must craft a new reality that reflects the actions of the Iranian regime," he wrote.
Mr Bolton also supports Mr Trump's controversial decision to open a US embassy in Jerusalem, despite condemnation from Palestinians and world leaders.
But not all of Mr Bolton's views coincide with those of the President.
Donald Trump has repeatedly said the US war in Iraq was a mistake.
And on Russia, the new National Security Adviser has long voiced hardline views against Moscow, which could sit at odds with a President who openly admires Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Conservative hardliners have praised Mr Bolton for his tough stance on foreign policy but he is also seen as one of the most divisive figures in conservative circles.

Republican Senator Marco Rubio says Mr Bolton is "an excellent choice who will do a great job."
But critics on the other side of politics have slammed the appointment.
Democratic senator Bernie Sanders describes Mr Bolton as "too extreme to be confirmed as UN ambassador in 2005 and is absolutely the wrong person to be national security adviser now."
Fellow Democrat Betty McCollum tweeted that Mr Bolton was a "discredited architect of the Iraq War" and his "appointment puts our national security at risk."
Ordinary Americans too have derided President Trump's announcement.
Many have referenced his 2013 tweet opposing the appointment of any former Bush administration officials.
"Too bad DT doesn't agree with DT anymore," tweeted one.
"You just hired someone who is likely to start another wasteful war!," tweeted another.
"There really is a tweet for every occasion," said a third.

Scott Pruitt has one all-purpose excuse for his first-class flights,
his 20-man security team, his taking over an entire floor of the EPA
building, and his hiding of many facets of his schedule and activities:
Threats. He’s claimed that he was subject to threats that were so bad,
so “unprecedented” that it justified surrounding the EPA
administrator with $3 million in personal security, taking military jets
across the country, first-class flights around the world, and in every
way making sure he never has to associate with the people who are paying
his bills.
Every last word of it has turned out to be a lie.
The letter Pruitt showed to Congress, supposedly proving that
the inspector general ordered up his special security precautions, was https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/5/1/1761157/-EPA-Administrator-Scott-Pruitt-bold-faced-lied-to-Congress-forged-resignation-document" rel="nofollow - nothing of the sort .
The “threats” that Pruitt actually accumulated over the last year were not even a handful—and https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/5/8/1762794/-Scott-Pruitt-spent-3-million-on-security-over-three-threats-one-a-drawing-of-mustache-over-his-pic" rel="nofollow - were so ridiculous , they wouldn’t have frightened a nervous child.
To keep hiding the fact that there are no genuine threats, Pruitt has https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/4/10/1755999/-EPA-sacks-staffer-who-issued-report-showing-there-are-no-credible-threats-against-Scott-Pruitt" rel="nofollow - forced out employees who dared to challenge his “unprecedented threat” narrative.
And now it’s absolutely clear: No one demanded Pruitt’s kid-glove
treatment except Pruitt, and he made that demand from the moment he came
in the door. In response to a letter sent by Democratic Senators
Sheldon WhiteHouse and Thomas Carper, the inspector general gave the
actual timing of Pruitt’s security and the actual origin of the request:
Every last word of it has turned out to be a lie.
is there even one single decent honest person in the Trump Cabinet ???

New York sues Trump Foundation, alleging 'extensive' lawbreaking
New York's attorney general is suing the Trump Foundation, as well as Donald Trump and his children, alleging "extensive and persistent" lawbreaking.
Barbara Underwood said the charitable foundation had engaged in "unlawful political co-ordination" designed to influence the 2016 election.
The lawsuit seeks to dissolve the foundation and $2.8m (£2.1m) in restitution.
The foundation denied the charges, calling them politically motivated.
The president hit back at the lawsuit on Twitter, saying that "sleazy New York Democrats" were "doing everything they can to sue me". He vowed he would not settle the case.

The sleazy New York Democrats, and their now disgraced (and run out of town) A.G. Eric Schneiderman, are doing everything they can to sue me on a foundation that took in $18,800,000 and gave out to charity more money than it took in, $19,200,000. I won’t settle this case!...
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1007278788009480192" rel="nofollow - 11:09 PM - Jun 14, 2018
The attorney general is also seeking to bar the president and three of his adult children, Donald Jr, Eric and Ivanka, from serving on the board of any New York-based charity, "in light of misconduct and total lack of oversight".
She has referred the case to the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Election Commission, she says.
What is the state attorney general alleging?
Ms Underwood filed a petition at the New York Supreme Court in Manhattan on Thursday, Mr Trump's 72nd birthday.
It accuses the foundation and its directors - Mr Trump and his three eldest children - of unlawfully co-ordinating with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated self-dealing transactions, and violating laws under which non-profit organisations must operate.
https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/attorney-general-underwood-announces-lawsuit-against-donald-j-trump-foundation-and-its" rel="nofollow - In a statement, Ms Underwood said Mr Trump had illegally instructed the foundation to provide support to his presidential campaign by using the foundation's name and funds it raised to promote the campaign.
The petition also claims that Mr Trump used charitable assets to pay off legal obligations, to promote his own businesses and to purchase personal items, including a painting of himself.

What have the Trump Foundation and the Trumps said?
The Trump Foundation issued a statement denying the charges and accusing the attorney general of holding its $1.7 million in remaining funds "hostage for political gain".
Ms Underwood is a Democrat.
The president described the suit as "ridiculous".
The younger Trumps have yet to comment publicly.
How did this come about?
The lawsuit announced on Thursday is the culmination of a two-year investigation, which began under the previous New York attorney general, Eric Schneiderman, Ms Underwood said.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-44035718" rel="nofollow - Mr Schneiderman resigned last month after several former girlfriends accused him of physical abuse.
In October 2016 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-37547094" rel="nofollow - Mr Schneiderman ordered the Trump Foundation to stop fundraising in New York , after finding it had no proper registration.
President-elect Trump https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38429496" rel="nofollow - vowed to shut the charitable foundation down in December 2016 , to avoid "even the appearance" of any conflict of interest.
The Trump Foundation lawsuit adds to Mr Trump's legal challenges, which include a wide-ranging special counsel investigation into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has indicted several of Mr Trump's associates and raided the home and office of the president's long-time lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen.

'A new front opened up'
Anthony Zurcher, North America reporter
New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood has opened a new front in the ongoing criminal investigations into Donald Trump and his empire. Allegations of misdeeds connected to the Trump Foundation had swirled during the 2016 presidential elections, but the topic had been overshadowed during the early days of the Trump presidency. That may be about to change.
Administration officials, from the president on down, will certainly attempt to brand this as yet another politically motivated investigation of an ideological adversary - new witches but the same hunt.
Nevertheless, as New York Attorney General, Ms Underwood has significant investigatory and prosecutorial power, and if she starts looking into some of Mr Trump's more questionable charitable activities, there's no telling what she might turn up.
At the very least, it appears the Trump world's celebrations of former Attorney General Eric Schneiderman's disgrace were a bit premature. Ms Underwood may not be as outspokenly anti-Trump as her predecessor, but she appears to be equally - or more - aggressive where it counts, in the courtroom.
What details emerged in the court filing?
Thursday's 41-page document filed with the NY Supreme Court spells out a range of alleged violations of laws concerning non-profit organisations, dating back more than a decade.
The investigation apparently found that the foundation was "little more than an empty shell that functions with no oversight by its board of directors". The board had not met since 1999, despite being legally required to meet annually, and did not oversee the foundation's activities "in any way", the document says.
Mr Trump, who has not contributed any personal funds to the foundation since 2008, was the sole signatory on the foundation's bank accounts and approved all of its grants.
Several pages of the document focus on a charity fundraiser for veterans in Iowa in January 2016, which Mr Trump chose to hold instead of taking part in a TV debate with other Republican presidential hopefuls ahead of the influential state's caucuses.
More than $2.8m was donated to the Trump Foundation at that event. The petition alleges that those funds raised from the public were used to promote Mr Trump's campaign for the presidency, in particular in the Iowa nominating caucuses.
The lawsuit also claims that the foundation paid $100,000 (£75,000) to settle legal claims against Mr Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort, $158,000 to settle claims against one of his golf clubs, and $10,000 to purchase a painting of Mr Trump to hang at another of his golf clubs.
The purchase of the painting was an example of one of "at least five self-dealing transactions" which violate tax regulations on non-profit charities, the statement said.
"As our investigation reveals, the Trump Foundation was little more than a cheque book for payments from Mr Trump or his businesses to nonprofits, regardless of their purpose of legality," Ms Underwood said.
"This is not how private foundations should function."
