Where's Slap Shot?! This list is invalid.

Arpaio's attorney said the White House contacted Arpaio last week to discuss the pardon, so it was already decided before Trump went to Arizona. The good ones or the bad ones?

AP NEWS BREAKING: President Trump grants pardon to former Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona. Coward, couldn't do it in Arizona when on camera, does it after he goes to hide at Camp David and people are focused on the hurricane.

So Bill didn't dump her like Trump who moved on to the next trophy wives and repeated his groping, and bragged about it. "And when you're a star, they let you do it, You can do anything. Grab them by the p---y."

The Secret Service cannot pay hundreds of agents to protect President Donald Trump and his large family, according to a report published Monday morning. Secret Service Director Randolph "Tex'' Alles told USA Today more than 1,000 agents have already hit the federally mandated caps for salary and overtime allowances -- which were meant to last the entire year. "The president has a large family, and our responsibility is required in law,'' Alles told USA Today. "I can't change that. I have no flexibility.'' Trump has taken trips almost every weekend of his presidency so far, to his properties in New Jersey, Virginia and Florida, as well as internationally -- and his adult children also require protection during their business trips and vacations. In April, CNN reported that Trump's travel to his private club in Florida has cost more than an estimated $20 million in his first 80 days in office, putting the President on pace to surpass former President Barack Obama's eight years of spending on travel -- in only his first year in office. Before and during the campaign season, Trump regularly criticized Obama for costing the American taxpayer money every time he took a trip, and Trump the candidate repeatedly called for belt-tightening across government agencies. In 2014, Trump tweeted: "We pay for Obama's travel so he can fundraise millions so Democrats can run on lies. Then we pay for his golf." http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/21/politics/secret-service-donald-trump-family/index.html Protecting the family isn't an issue, but protecting all the properties that he refused to divest from, and his constant travels to them at taxpayer's expense are a slap in the face to his supporters that expected Trump to reduce government spending. The White House and Camp David should be sufficient for most weekends.

Speculation is that Trump is going to announce an increase of troops in Afghanistan. Given that he has no credibility at this point, this would really be a slap in the face of those supporters that were attracted by his "America First" positions. Before he became president, Trump criticized US involvement in the country, while urging President Obama's administration to pull out of the country. An August 2011 tweet said the US was "wasting lives and money in Iraq and Afghanistan.” The following year, he called the conflict a “complete waste,” and said it was “time to come home!” Again lamenting the war’s expense, in 2013, he urged the US to stop “wast[ing] billions” in Afghanistan, and instead use the money to “rebuild the USA.” http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/moab-donald-trump-afghanistan-war-bombing-quotes-what-he-said-before-tweets-mother-all-bombs-a7683286.html Donald J. Trump ✔@realDonaldTrump Do not allow our very stupid leaders to sign a deal that keeps us in Afghanistan through 2024-with all costs by U.S.A. MAKE AMERICA GREAT! 9:12 AM - Nov 21, 2013 Donald J. Trump ✔@realDonaldTrump Let’s get out of Afghanistan. Our troops are being killed by the Afghanis we train and we waste billions there. Nonsense! Rebuild the USA. 2:55 PM - Jan 11, 2013 Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, who ran against Trump in the Republican primaries last year, urged the president to stick with his “America First” roots. He called an increase in forces “a fool’s errand” and “a terrible idea.” "The purpose of the Afghanistan war was to get those who organized and attacked us on 9/11. That mission is long done," Paul of Kentucky said in an interview. “Creating a nation out of Afghanistan is an impossible goal and will just needlessly cause loss of American life and there’s no possibility of us ever creating a country out of Afghanistan.” https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-05-24/global-cop-or-america-first-trump-s-risks-on-afghanistan-plan

Once is a coincidence, twice is something else. There's something going on that the military doesn't want to admit.

Kinda hard to keep Russia in the headlines after a week where white supremacists are defended by the president. But fortunately Mueller is quietly doing his job and isn't distracted by Trump's daily blunders. Don't worry, there's plenty to come on the collusion story.

You're assuming it will be short. There's going to be alot of holding penalties.

Hauschka and Schmidt. This team will come up short on a lot of 3rd downs.

Perhaps if Germans had stood up to the Nazis in Germany when they were a small group of thugs, they never would have rose to power. Never again.

Exactly, just like WWII. On one side you had the Nazis who were violent & on the other the allied soldiers were also very violent. Some even used weapons. So it's a draw. Many sides you see.

The killer's mother said she didn't know it was a white nationalist rally. She thought it was a rally for Trump. Well yes it was, and yes it was. Trump still can't bring himself to call it what it is; "radical domestic terrorism". How can you combat it I you can't even say what it is? I recall someone saying something similar during the election.

As part of a larger WWII memorial dedicated to all the Allies that fought against the Nazis. It's not there to honor his murder of Russians. Many of the Confederate statues were erected in the '60s as a protest against the Civil rights act and the federal government's support for desegregation.

It took Trump days to renounce Duke's support during the campaign. Now Trump has yet to specifically denounce the white supremacist KKK and Nazis by name. Will Trump say the words "radical domestic terrorism"? It would be naive to think that Trump is willing to upset this section of his dwindling base. He empowered them to speak out, from his Birther movement through his campaign rhetoric about non-whites. It's been over a week and he still hasn't spoken out against the bombing of a mosque in Minnesota. You can bet he would have spoken out if a Muslim attacked a Christian church.

We have history books to record the good and bad of historical events. Statues are normally reserved for inspirational people or events. Celebrating the treasonous actions of the Confederacy with statues is not inspirational, and shows a lack of empathy for the historical treatment of blacks. Never forget, but don't celebrate or honor. Belief in a cause doesn't excuse action, otherwise we'd have statues of Nazis, and would tell Jews that it's a historical record.

Somebody plowed their car into the anti-fascist counter protesters, then sped off. Many injuries. Trump to take time off from golf to give a statement. A little too late from the guy who has given these white nationalists the "courage" to spew their hatred. The 2nd Civil War now in action.

They can't go all in, they still want to put butts in the seats by appearing to compete.

Trump seems to think it's a recreational drug. My brother-in-law died from it's effect. Was driving a truck and was t-boned by someone who ran a red light. Had severe back pain, and was prescribed pills by his doctor. He got hooked, and after failed attempts at rehab it eventually destroyed his liver, and we watched him take his last breath in the hospital, a shell of his former self. It must be some powerful stuff.

Who would have guessed that Trump knew Shakespeare? MACBETH She should have died hereafter; There would have been a time for such a word. To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

The day after the Mueller indictments are announced, be ready to duck and cover.

Trump is set to depart the White House later today for a 17-day vacation at his golf club in New Jersey. During the 2016 campaign, Trump repeatedly promised that he would refuse to take vacation in order to keep doing the work of the American public. “Can you believe that, with all of the problems and difficulties facing the US, President Obama spent the day playing golf.” Mr Trump tweeted in October 2014. “Worse than Carter.” At another point, Mr Trump lamented the taxpayer expense for Mr Obama’s games, tweeting, “We pay for Obama’s travel so he can fundraise millions so Democrats can run on lies. Then we pay for his golf.” "I would rarely leave the White House because there's so much work to be done," Trump said in July 2015. "I would not be a president who took vacations. I would not be a president that takes time off." "I'm going to be working for you," Trump said in August 2016. "I'm not going to have time to go play golf." Trump has spent nearly 22 percent of his days in office at one of his golf properties to play for some portion of the day. Obama played golf for 3 percent of the time he was president. In the first three months of the year, the Secret Service spent $35,000 just on golf cart rentals at the Trump-owned Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, CBS News reported. Politico has calculated that a weekend trip to Mar-a-Lago, where Mr Trump frequently retreats to play golf, costs taxpayers about $3 million. http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/04/politics/donald-trump-vacation-obama/index.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-golf-trips-president-mar-a-lago-golfing-despite-barack-obama-criticism-a7708076.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-golf-trips-president-mar-a-lago-golfing-despite-barack-obama-criticism-a7708076.html
