So what Central American country was going to host this hypothetical processing center?  Because I don’t see that being high on the list of priorities of any of those countries.

"podium" = "treadmill"

His quotation marks, like most of his communications, make no fucking sense.

They do, but it's going to be nice watching the next Democrat in the White House reverse every single one of his executive orders.

What a very British smile.

[Asithappens 974]

That student very much looks like an  arrogant, entitled dipshit.

But, to me anyway, the evidence coming out now shows all this in a different light, right? Sounds like the Indian guy misread the situation. He was on NPR yesterday and he didn't really make much sense, imo. 

Look, call out the assholes but get the facts right.

[Rimbo 25,925]

More evidence that Trump's White House sucks at being President:

Quote

An analysis by the Institute for Policy Integrity at New York University School of Law shows that more than 90 percent of court challenges to major Trump deregulatory actions have been successful so far. By the institute’s count, 30 big rules have been challenged, and the courts have found for the litigants 28 times.

Some of those rulings may change after appeals to higher courts, but administrative law experts said even the string of lower-court rulings was unusual. In a typical administration, the government wins on such challenges around 70 percent of the time, said Richard Revesz, a law professor at N.Y.U. who specializes in environmental law. “This is truly aberrational,” he said.

The law gives federal agencies a lot of latitude to write regulations, but it says that major actions have to follow certain steps. For big changes, agencies are supposed to go through what’s called “notice and comment”: They must issue a proposal, let the public respond with ideas, then incorporate feedback into a final version.

A lot of the losses came because the administration skipped those steps, instead announcing that it would pause or reverse pending rules — or that some emergency conditions justified an instant regulatory change. An earlier version of the contraceptive rule, and several environmental rules, including a suspension of Obama-era methane standards, were attempted without notice and comment.

But even some Trump policies that have followed the usual regulatory steps have been found to run afoul of the law’s standards for administrative process. The law says that the executive branch should be allowed to interpret the law as long as its decisions aren’t “arbitrary” and “capricious.”

...

Quote

The rule-making sloppiness may reflect the president’s enthusiasm for deregulation, and the distrust of agency staff by many of his political appointees.

“It’s hard to understand as anything but a combination of haste and ineptitude,” said Nicholas Bagley, a law professor at the University of Michigan, who worked in the Obama administration Justice Department defending its regulations.

In many cases, it’s easy enough for regulators to bounce back from a loss on procedural grounds. Trump administration agencies may have better luck with their subsequent efforts, which are now underway in several areas where initial rule making was rejected by courts. Mr. Bagley said he expected the administration would fare better on many rules the second time around.

FWIW

MSNBC reporting that trump and his campaign speechwriters are forming several drafts of the SOTU address, one of which will be crafted for a speech at a rally if they have to give it at that type of venue.

[Chuckie Finster 22,694]

The next president should have legislation already prepared that reverses every single one of the EOs at once.  And he should sign it as soon as he gets to a desk after being inaugurated.

Erasing the Trump years with a single penstroke would be glorious.

So literally the Democratic position for the last month. Eight hundred thousand people went without paychecks for a month for no reason. And I’m fairly certain the only reason they’re voting on it now is because Trump wants his state of the union in the House.
