Trump released his Executive Order Friday banning travel and immigration from seven nations without any implementation instructions to the people and organizations who would be responsible for enforcing it, and he made it effective immediately upon its release. At first I asked myself, “Why would Trump release this EO in a way that would create such a high degree of…

Trump Lies
This is beyond absurd. “My crowd was bigger than your crowd,” Trump sends Spicer to lie. (Meaning that the crowd on the Mall in Washington for his inauguration on Jan. 20, 2017 was larger than that for President Obama’s inauguration in 2009.) First it was Trump’s inferiority about his hand size. Then it was his inferiority about his inaugural crowd…
Trump At The CIA on Jan. 21, 2017
Minutes ago, Donald Trump told a series of ridiculous lies and made numerous errors of fact when speaking to members of the CIA at something that would best be described as a very badly executed campaign event. He spent far too much time talking about himself and congratulating himself at this campaign event. What was supposed to be Trump’s apology…
Is Donald Trump The Great Uniter?
In his United States Presidential election victory speech in the early morning of Nov. 9, 2016, Donald Trump said, “For those who have chosen not to support me in the past, of which there were a few people. . .I’m reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so that we can work together and unify our great…
Ben Carson And No “Special Rights”
Oh, Dr. Ben Carson. According to The Hill, “During Ben Carson’s Senate confirmation hearing on Jan. 12, 2017, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) pressed the Housing and Urban Development nominee about whether he would enforce LGBT protections in the public housing sector. ‘Of course, I would enforce all the laws of the land,’ Carson responded. ‘Of course, I think all Americans should be…
Oh Kellyanne Conway, You Terrible Spokesperson
Apparently Trump Campaign Manager and newly christened Senior Advisor (whatever that means) Kellyanne Conway didn’t read the headlines in The New York Times, Washington Post, and on CNN between yesterday afternoon and yesterday evening. The story at this point is that Trump was briefed by intelligence officials last week about the information contained in the 35-page report released by BuzzFeed.…
Trump And Russia — Then And Now
Oh Trump. You tweeted one thing today (one of four tweets you sent in an hour this morning), denying any financial ties to Russia: “Russia has never tried to use leverage over me. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSSIA — NO DEALS, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING! Who’s to say what “Russia” means in Trump’s context — the government of Russia,…
Comparing POTUS and PEOTUS “Happy New Year 2017” Tweets
President-Elect Trump and Presidents Clinton and Obama all tweeted “Happy New Year” greetings in the last couple of days. Trump’s tweet went out about 8:30 AM EST on December 31, 2016. President Clinton tweeted about 24 hours later, on Jan. 1, 2017, and President Obama tweeted his greeting at noon, also on New Year’s Day. Let’s compare the tweets. President…
Who Has Bought His/Her Spot In The Trump Cabinet? — Part 2
A few weeks ago, I noted that Linda McMahon and Andrew Puzder quite clearly paid for their cabinet positions: Broken Laughter will continue to do research on this and will update this post with the new information as it becomes available, but of the recent Trump Cabinet selections made, here are two who clearly bought their seats in the Trump administration:…
