I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air. Unregulated Crypto Assets can facilitate unlawful behavior, including drug trade and other illegal activity....

It is by far the most dominant currency anywhere in the World, and it will always stay that way. It is called the United States Dollar! 22.6K 8:15 PM - Jul 11, 2019

Fox News was bodying Trump today. Don't know if they've turned against him a little or just realize that nothing they say will affect his supporters so are just going for views.

Trump rails against ‘Fake News’ in bizarre tirade, warns industry will fold when he leaves office

“Could you imagine having Sleepy Joe Biden, or Alfred E. Newman or a very nervous and skinny version of Pocahontas (1/1024th), as your President, rather than what you have now, so great looking and smart, a true Stable Genius!” Trump tweeted. “Sorry to say that even Social Media would be driven out of business along with, and finally, the Fake News Media!”

The president’s Twitter screed comes as his social media account has been in the headlines. A federal appeals court decision this week said Trump is no longer allowed to block people on Twitter over statements he does not like.

p.s. - those nicknames are going to be stale and tired with the general public by January 2020, much less December. He's using the technique he used for a couple months at a time in the presidential race and trying to use it a year in advance.



Trump trashes 'lame duck failure' Paul Ryan in response to new criticisms

In the book, "American Carnage," Ryan recalled his difficult working relationship with the president. He told Politico's Tim Alberta that Trump "didn't know anything about the government" and that he and others "helped to stop him from making bad decisions."

“Because, I’m telling you, he didn’t know anything about government . . . I wanted to scold him all the time," Ryan reportedly said in the book. “Those of us around him really helped to stop him from making bad decisions. All the time. We helped him make much better decisions, which were contrary to kind of what his knee-jerk reaction was. Now I think he’s making some of these knee-jerk reactions.”

Trump blasted Ryan as a "failed" vice presidential candidate with an "atrocious" record of as a congressman....

"Paul Ryan, the failed V.P. candidate & former Speaker of the House, whose record of achievement was atrocious (except during my first two years as President), ultimately became a long running lame duck failure, leaving his Party in the lurch both as a fundraiser & leader..." Trump tweeted.

Trump went on to claim that when 2012 GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney chose Ryan as a running mate, he told people "that's the end of this Presidential run."

.....Trump added, "He had the Majority & blew it away with his poor leadership and bad timing. Never knew how to go after the Dems like they go after us. Couldn’t get him out of Congress fast enough!"

This is a drastic shift in tone from the president when Ryan announced he would not be seeking re-election in April 2018.

"Speaker Paul Ryan is a truly good man, and while he will not be seeking re-election, he will leave a legacy of achievement that nobody can question. We are with you Paul!" Trump tweeted at the time.

Spent years as Bolton's chief of staff and enthusiastically carried out Bolton's agenda

Used to work for Newsmax

Wants to stop the CIA's public threat reports because they "undermine Trump's foreign policy." In other words, because they tell the truth.

Is a nutcase on Muslim stuff
until 2013 when he was named a senior fellow with the Center for Security Policy,[12] run by Frank Gaffney, an anti-Muslim activist and conspiracy theorist.[13] In February 2015, Fleitz became senior vice president for policy and programs. In his writings for the Center, Fleitz claimed that major American Muslim organizations and mosques were secretly working to advance a jihadist agenda, that such groups should not be trusted when they claim to "eschew violence" and that they should be "neutralized as political forces."[14]

Media[edit]
Fleitz has appeared on the Fox News Channel[15][16] and other media outlets to discuss national security issues.[17][18][19] Fleitz has been outspoken in criticizing the Obama administration's nuclear diplomacy with Iran and the July 2015 nuclear agreement with Tehran in his media appearances and op-eds.[20][21][22][23][24] According to Council on Foreign Relations senior fellow and Washington Post columnist Max Boot, Fleitz "has a record of trafficking in virulent Muslim hatred."[25] In his columns, Fleitz frequently defended fringe anti-Muslim, far-right activists such as Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller.[13]


If you were trying to perfectly design the US Intelligence chief who would pull a 2003-in-Iraq style move to start a war with Iran, THIS is the guy you would pull.
