Everything you didn't want to know about Trump and were not afraid to ask

Ireland is a country that just voted to amend its constitution to permit the parliament to allow abortion. LOL. You had a constitutional provision telling the Parliament they could not legalize it. Now, they CAN legalize it (or to some extent), but they don't have to, and it remains illegal until the parliament passes a law to allow it. There is no "right to abortion" in Ireland at all.

I'm sure they'll pass a very reasonable abortion law soon, which will allow women to get abortions when there is a medical need, or before a certain number of weeks (like 16 or 20), or with two or more doctors certifying the necessity of the procedure - things like that. You know, what reasonable, prochoice countries in Europe do, but which are misogynist and hateful if suggested in the US (where anything but complete, unfettered access to abortion on demand is "men telling women what to do with their bodies...").

Ah, the INB. Very much on the "Where are they now?" list.

Illinois National Bank?

There are not racists, bigots or haters in Ireland. Just like there are no gay people in Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Trump is right on this

Yes, Coito. Yes, of course he is.

Now take your medication and go back to bed.

Great argument.

It wasn't an argument. I don't argue with Galaxian or Superuniverse either. Arguing with you is a waste of time and effort for the same reason that arguing with a flat-earther or Scientologist is a waste of time and effort.

So you don't believe in engaging a person based on the strength of their argument, but move to dismiss it based upon your suppositions about their soundness of mind?

In this instance, you're the flat-earther.

I've neither the time nor the inclination to convince a flat-earther that the earth is actually an oblate spheroid. If you do, that's great.

Funny, you seem to have no shortage of time in which to post meaningless garbage.

I'm surprised you had time to look that up.

Less than 1%? That's an understatement. FEMA's budget is about $14 billion, with a "b" - so 10 million is about 0.07% of the FEMA budget. Not merely "less than 1%." They took a whopping 7% of that 1% of the fema budget. The Department of Homeland Security has the authority to move a limited amount of money around within its budget.

What I've found is that the news sources reporting on this refer to FEMA's overall operating budget. I see Wikipedia has the same number you've given, and the source which details the basis of the number shows that a large portion of it is devoted to various disaster relief funds.

The transfer documents specifically say the money didn't come from disaster relief — it came from FEMA's budgets for "training, travel, public engagement, IT security support and infrastructure maintenance."

Budget documents show the transfer of $9,755,303 from FEMA to ICE. That represents just under 1% of the agency’s overall budget. Money was also transferred to ICE from the U.S. Coast Guard and the Transportation Security Administration.

source

FEMA's budget originally was $1.03 billion, and the amount transferred was about $9.755 million.

source

The point is that this administration is taking money from agencies specifically devoted to helping the public in order to fund its pet law enforcement agency.

History has shown the strength of his arguments are almost always weak and flawed.

And he wants desperately to suck Trump's tiny cock. Don't forget that. It surely clouds his judgement.

I don't think that's right tatt - the prez has actually boasted about the size of his dong... so Yuge... his sausage is so mighty he has to use a dozen towels after a showers... enough rod to make a handrail from here to Salam... more pork than that Kenyan-Muslim Obama, and probably more than Hillary too...

President Scumbag shows, yet ag again, why he's unfit to be considered a member of the human race, let alone a president.

Washington (CNN)Nearly 3,000 people died in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. President Donald Trump denied this reality as a hurricane barrels toward the Carolinas.

"3000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit Puerto Rico. When I left the Island, AFTER the storm had hit, they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths. As time went by it did not go up by much. Then, a long time later, they started to report really large numbers, like 3000," he said in a tweet Thursday morning as Carolinians prepared to be pummeled by Hurricane Florence.

Trump has consistently denied any fault for his administration in the aftermath of the storm. In fact, the President has instead sought praise for his handling of Hurricane Maria, saying earlier this week that it was "an incredible, unsung success."
