NEW via MS NOW: More than two days after the Senate confirmed Jay Clayton to serve as director of national intelligence, Clayton has not taken the oath of office. Instead, Trump loyalist Bill Pulte, who no experience in intelligence, remains in one of the most powerful intelligence positions.

Jay Clayton still hasn't taken office as DNI, leaving Senate Dems worried

The Senate confirmed Jay Clayton as Director of National Intelligence in a party-line vote on Tuesday but somehow Trump loyalist Bill Pulte is still in the role.

I can't stress enough that there is no direct proof but given that the Trump administration has repeatedly openly admitted having plans to meddle in European politics to help illiberal parties, I don't think we can rule out the possibility that the US had something to do with the Ceuta incident.

Wonder why Bezos and The Waltons always support GOP initiatives to gut and kill the ACA, Medicaid, and other safety net services when their entire corporate profit mode is based around using these programs as corporate welfare that allows them to underpay and deny benefits to their workers?

1. American taxpayers are spending $2 BILLION every year providing Medicaid benefits to hundreds of thousands of employees of Amazon and Walmart, a new analysis by Popular Information reveals.

The legacy media is reconsidering the White House Correspondence dinner because Trump insulted them. What they don't get is that they insulted their viewers and readers by attending in the first place. Support independent media that doesn't suck up to Trump whether he is nice to them or not.

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.

I've mentioned this before, but one reason Navarro, a talentless hack and liar, hates the Canadians is because they are extremely skilled and technically orientated trade negotiators and he keeps getting outplayed by them in any actual detail-orientated agreement.

Peter Navarro claims that Canadian officials are "some of the most dishonest people I've ever met. They stab you in the back ... they're screwing us"

The thing about heat waves is, it makes the dead bodies smell extra putrid. Someone needs to see if Elaine Chao is rubbing Tiger Balm under her nose when she swings by to visit Mitch's newly shed exoskeleton.

NEW: Governor Andy Beshear says he got calls from two different non-state agencies saying McConnell had died. This was before the "proof of life" photo was shared by McConnell's team. newrepublic.com/post/213199/...
