Base of Last Resort
The White House has ordered all federal agencies to halt diversity training. That’s right, folks, Trump has ordered that all training sessions about fighting systemic racism and white privilege in federal agencies, calling it “divisive” and “un-American”. Russell Vought, the director of OMB, said, “The President has directed me to ensure that federal agencies cease and desist from using taxpayer dollars to fund these divisive, un-American propaganda training sessions.”
Of course, since the money has been appropriated and the contracts let, Trump can’t just arbitrarily cancel them. So, what will happen is that taxpayer money will be spent and no training will occur. Why is Trump doing this? To whip up his last remaining base, racist pigs who hate everyone and everything, of course. Trump has already pissed off small business owners, large business owners, doctors, nurses, scientists, , public health officials, teachers, and union workers; now he’s alienated members of the military, Blue Star families and Gold Star families. Apparently all that’s left is Russian gangsters and bigoted mouth breathers waving Nazi and Confederate flags.
He’s finally found his base of last resort.
An impeachable offense, but not likely to clear the Senate…again. Next!
1Now Mr. Phillips let’s not be too hasty about holding Donnie to all of his infractions. Would it not be reasonable to trade one or two of the minor infractions for one large infarction?
2Racism couldn’t be clearer in this administration and now officially sanctioned. To Trumpf, nothing out of Russier is propaganda, but diversity training is.
3Any other questions about if Trumpf is racist, repugnanticans? Lindsey Graham? Moscow Mitch? Marco Rubio? Susan Collins? Bill Barrff? And on and on…..too many to list here.
Jane & PKM: “infraction” turned into “infarction” just made my weekend. You win the pun of the year award, even though it’s only September. It made me ugly snort with laughter.
4The Surly Professor, to quote a tennis metaphor, even in singles it takes another player. So please, H/Ts to Mr. charles phillips and Micr who set up some of the best WMDBS lobs.
5We are also watching with horror as a textbook Malignant Narcissist constantly feeds his insatiable addiction of power, attention and revenge.
6Sadistic Donnie really enjoys sticking his finger in your eye, over and over again.
This fits perfectly with CNN’s report about “Fauxbama.” Read it and shiver. He’s completely bonkers.
