If you voted Trump because you thought the problem with America was that there weren't enough FBI agents committing bestiality, congratulations: "Acts of bestiality are also 'no longer automatic deal breakers for applicants to the nation’s top law enforcement agency'...” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Sexual encounters with prostitutes is no longer a deal-breaker for FBI applicants

The Trump presidency has been a grand experiment in what happens when an administration embraces amateurism and deprofessionalization.

If you wanted to fly Donald Trump out on a different plane without advanced warning to protect him, that would be one thing. But to put others on what you believed to be a targeted plane served only one purpose: To propagate and maintain a lie to assuage a single man’s ego.
