This arming teachers thing has me so upset. I feel like so much in this world is going in the wrong direction - more guns in schools, emboldened white supremacists/racists, Xi paving the way for himself to be President for life, Russia committing chemical weapons attacks in the UK, dismantling of Affordable Care Act, stagnating wages, tax cuts for the most wealthy....and what is MOST concerning is that a huge chunk of Americans are not bothered by any of this in the slightest. That is terrifying to me, and it makes me not want to move my kids back to the USA.

Omg. I just saw a right to life commercial on tv. No wonder I don’t ever turn on the tv. It was an ultrasound with the sound of a baby heartbeat and said “what the lord giveth, cuomo can’t take away!” “stop Cuomo’s radical abortion bill”
All I can think is how hurtful seeing that would be to someone not in a good place with TTC, AL, IF
I have a lot of angry, ragey thoughts over this. The law proposed removes abortion from the penal code, paving the way for abortions when the baby isn’t viable after the 24 week cut off.

No worries, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Whitehouse press secretary, lying-liar who lies. Also the daughter of Mike Huckabee who is a 'christian' minister and was governor of one of the A states..Arkansas or Alabama.... Arkansas. she rode her daddys coattails and now wants to drop the Huckabee and I refuse to let her do that. I may start abbreviating her name to LLWL though

I just saw the news on twitter and came over here. Didn’t he have a gentlemen’s agreement with Kelly and someone else to leave if one was fired or resigned? Wonder if that will hold true. If it does, this episode of Government Apprentice just got way more complicated...

Also now they need to fill the CIA director slot. geeeezus what a landfill inferno I *think*since Pompeo was already confirmed for the CIA role they maybe able to just move him over without a hearing. There were rumblings of that a while back.

The closing of the house's investigation has really made Trumps dick hard. The timing of this is a bold move.

Pompeo will be worse. I loathed Rex and now I am even more anxious. What's crazy is that Tillerson has actually been....dare I say it....better than I thought? Like still bad but at least he could call out Russia on their shit.
That's just how disgraceful this administration is. Good Lord.

Oh great, Pompeo.
This is so embarrassing. The WH is in shambles, they have a higher employee turnover than Pizza Hut.
