President Trump the Magnificent puts IRAN on Notice

I was rather hoping we'd leave the ME to deal with Russia or their own problems, but I'm not surprised President Trump is going after them. I suppose there is some comfort in that it's good PR for America to continue some of the global protectionist stuff. Maybe we can dump everyone else and just deal with ISIS, Iran, and Turkey...

Either way, if they force us to put boots on the ground I ask that you all pray for our boys safety.

Specifically, how would creating a massive vacuum in the Middle East stop radical Islamic Terrorism? We have seen how well it worked in Iraq. After petulant former President Obama pulled all out troops out, against the advice of military, with Obama and former VP Biden declaring it a great victory, we now have a massive disaster on our hands.
You'll see beating Isis isn't so easy when they no longer control a city. Then they go underground. We would be there forever soldiers dying every day.

Time to get with it then

We need to slaughter ISIS in a brutal way

Gen. Flynn: "Today We Are Officially Putting Iran On Notice"

When Iran test fired a new ballistic missile on Sunday, an act it confirmed this morning, it was aware it was taking a calculated risk and, more importantly, was testing America's response and resolve to preserve Obama's nuclear deal. It got the answer this afternoon, when shortly before 2pm, President Trump's national security adviser, Michael Flynn, said the United States was officially putting Iran on notice on Wednesday over its "destabilizing activity" after it test-fired a ballistic missile over the weekend.



"As of today, we are officially putting Iran on notice," Flynn told a White House briefing, without explaining exactly what that meant, although it is clear that any more provocations by Iran and whatever existing deals Iran had with the Obama administration will almost certainly be revised if not torn up.

Remember what happened the last time Republicans broke the middle East? It's still broken but you can break it more

lol... Its on the hands of weak ass OBama

And I just heard trumps going to stick to Obama's good deal.

Nothing Obama did equates to 'good' except leaving office

-Geaux

75 Straight Months of Job Growth! The Obama economy closed out with a low 4.7% unemployment rate. In December, his final full month in office, the U.S. economy added a slightly disappointing 156,000 jobs. It marked the 75th consecutive month of job gains, the best on record.Jan 6, 2017

Suck it

We already created the vacuum, the damage is done (Thanks Obama) I'd rather let Russia or Israel trash the place to be completely frank. IF we have to go back in then I say we do it Patton style and get it over with already.

Basically the same shit as drawing a "line in the sand," except I don't see President Trump backing off said line.

THAT'S THE POINT ASSHOLE!!!!!!
BONOBO was fond of telling the enemy what he was going to do in advance.
President Trump/Flynn? Not going to happen!
The Obama asslickers at MSNBC are whining that Trump refuses to tell the world what his plans are to combat Iran/terrorism.
 
Iran needed put down like a rabid dog years ago

Their demise is near

What......is Flynn going to lead the charge and invade Iran!!! Hopefully his son will put on a uniform and join the cluster fuck.

Many have served already. Me included. It's time for others to carry on the war against those who wish to see us dead

Of course Trump did threaten to blow Iranian ships out of the water if they made hand gestues to Americans.
Watch what happens the next time the Iranian navy sends high speed boats out to run directly towards a US navy ship.
"Any vessel which comes within 500 yards of a US ship, without explicit permission by the Captain of that ship will be immediately neutralised".

5 Ways Republicans Have Sabotaged Job Growth
By Jeff Spross



0*H0OgjvKG5otSnTQ5.jpg

New numbers released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that the economy added a mere 80,000 jobs in June. That’s down from an average of 150,000 jobs a month for the first part of the year, and far too little to keep up with population growth.

Republican intransigence on economic policy has been a key contributor to the sluggish recovery. As early as 2009, Republican fear-mongering over spending and their readiness to filibuster in the Senate helped convince the White House economic team that an $800 billion stimulus was the most they could hope to get through Congress. Reporting has since revealed that the team thought the country actually needed a stimulus on the order of $1.2 to $1.8 trillion. The economy’s path over the next three years proved them right. Here are the top five ways the Republicans have sabotaged the economic recovery since:

1. Filibustering the American Jobs Act. Last October, Senate Republicans killed a jobs bill proposed by President Obama that would have pumped $447 billion into the economy. Multiple economic analysts predicted the bill would add around two million jobs and hailed it as defense against a double-dip recession. The Congressional Budget Office also scored it as a net deficit reducer over ten years, and the American public supported the bill.

2. Stonewalling monetary stimulus.
The Federal Reserve can do enormous good for a depressed economy through more aggressive monetary stimulus, and by tolerating a temporarily higher level of inflation. But with everything from Ron Paul’s anti-inflationary crusade to Rick Perry threatening to lynch Chairman Ben Bernanke, Republicans have browbeaten the Fed into not going down this path. Most damagingly, the GOP repeatedly held up President Obama’s nominations to the Federal Reserve Board during the critical months of the recession, leaving the board without the institutional clout it needed to help the economy.

3. Threatening a debt default.
Even though the country didn’t actually hit its debt ceiling last summer, the Republican threat to default on the United States’ outstanding obligations was sufficient to spook financial markets and do real damage to the economy.

4. Cutting discretionary spending in the debt ceiling deal.
The deal the GOP extracted as the price for avoiding default imposed around $900 billion in cuts over ten years. It included $30.5 billion in discretionary cuts in 2012 alone, costing the country 0.3 percent in economic growth and 323,000 jobs, according to estimates from the Economic Policy Institute. Starting in 2013, the deal will trigger another $1.2 trillion in cuts over ten years.

5. Cutting discretionary spending in the budget deal.
While not as cataclysmic as the debt ceiling brinksmanship, Republicans also threatened a shutdown of the government in early 2011 if cuts were not made to that year’s budget. The deal they struck with the White House cut $38 billion from food stamps, health, education, law enforcement, and low-income programs among others, while sparing defense almost entirely.
There have also been a few near-misses, in which the GOP almost prevented help from coming to the economy. The Republicans in the House delayed a transportation bill that saved as many as 1.9 million jobs. House Committees run by the GOP have passed proposals aimed at cutting billions from food stamps, and the party has repeatedly threatened to kill extensions of unemployment insurance and cuts to the payroll tax.

According to the Congressional Budget Office, those policies — the payroll tax cut, food stamps, unemployment insurance, and discretionary spending for low-income Americans — have the highest multipliers, meaning more job boosting potential per dollar.

U.S. Starts Year With Job Surge, but Pay Gains Are Weak

Just as I suspected from Republicans. Adding jobs but the raises are over now that they won and have nothing to prove. Instead of "good paying jobs" now it'll just be jobs.
 
Trump and Donald Jr are alpha males, Ivanka is an alpha bitch as well. idk what happened with Eric heh
The Trump males have been in America over 100 years and the Donald Trump's family males have served in the MILITARY!!!! They only serve themselves! There is nothing patriotic about those BASTARDS!!!

Summary of Trump Family 150-Year Military Service

During that same 150 year period, male members of Donald Trump’s family have lived in the United States and fully benefited from the freedom, liberty, economic opportunity, and blessings of our country in every decade but the 1870’s. (Frederick Trump arrived as a military-aged immigrant to the United States in 1885).

The list above shows that at least 19 Trump family males have lived in America during those 140 years. Based on the best information available, one died in infancy, one is seriously disabled, and six are young children under the age of 10 years old. One more has just reached the age for military service. Thus there were 10 mature Trump men who were of military service age over this time period.

The 19 enumerated Trump men have lived in America for a combined total of 654 years, as of 2016 (more than six centuries). For our purposes, we will assume a military service obligation may occur between the ages of 18-45 (in a major national conflict, such as during the draft in World War II). A quick review of the birth dates of the Trump men shows that they have accumulated a total of 255 military service-eligible years during this period (about 40% of all their years living in America).

The military service-eligible years in the Trump family men are distributed as follows: 30 years for Generation 1 (grandfather Friedrich Trump); 54 years for the two members of Generation 2; 105 years for the four members of Generation 3; 66 years for the three members of Generation 4 (excluding young Barron Trump). This is an average of 25 years of military eligibility for each of the 10 Trump men.

The Trump family military history is atypical for an family here in America since the middle of the 19th century, and leaves a lot to be desired with respect to their dedication to the public good. Paying one’s fair share of taxes to support our men and women is one part of the puzzle, but even generous payments do not substitute for being willing to stand going in harm’s way for your fellow citizens.

Donald Trump’s life experience with military matters consists of attending a disciplinary military academy for five years in high school, marching around the parade ground, and playing soldier uniform dress-up. He actively avoided his own opportunity for military experience when he had the chance to serve in a hot war. He rejected the opportunity to serve as a Reservist or member of the National Guard then and later. He has recently attempted to hijack a charitable event for Veterans (January 2016) in order to shine the spotlight on himself, and then ducked payment of his boldly announced and freely offered contribution, until a national news paper hounded him for months and shamed him into honoring his commitment.

How Many Trump Men Have Served in the U.S. Military in 150 Years?*

Based on publicly available records sources and the news searches described above, the plain answer is None. Zero for Ten.

Absent a draft or other legal compulsion, there is, of course, nothing illegal about this record. There can be many reasons why any particular person does not get to serve.

However, over this long a period of time (1.5 centuries), with the number of major military conflicts the U.S. has fought in, and with this number of Trump male family members, it seems unusual that not one of them made the same sacrifice of service as tens of millions of their countrymen.

Trump has no background of family military service to draw on or inform him, that he might appreciate the routine and enormous sacrifices of those who have actually served our country or lost loved ones in wartime.

Trump’s Military Service Family History: A 50-Year Update (July 27, 2016)
You are severely underestimating Trump's years at the New York Military Academy, how formative it was for his outlook towards life, his work ethic, patriotism, and his deep respect for anything military. It was indeed the same lasting effect going to West Point Academy would have. In fact it definitely had more of an impact on Trump than had he actually only served in the military. That is why he has nominated so many generals for his cabinet.
Surely you're not comparing the New York Military Academy, a boarding school for wealthy problem children with West Point.

Great point. If the GOP turn a blind eye to oil producers jacking up the price to over $4 a gallon, that will do wonders for the oil companies and those workers. But it will be at the expense of everyone else. If we are putting it in our tank we aren't buying other things. The oil companies hate alternative energy. You'll see Trump roll back regulations and subsodies for green technologies like when Reagan ripped the solar panals off the white house.

Yes, Trump will help the oil companies by allowing them to gouge us. It'll happen gradually but it will happen.

And I now have a job 7 minutes from home. Used to work 1 hour away. I hope they do jack up the gas prices. I'm no longer part of the labor force I'm now investor class.

True gas prices will be high but I will finally be able to rest easy at night not worrying if I will have to borrow money to keep my lights on. Wouldn't a middle ground be ideal, like say $80 a barrel instead of $100? The oil field could still prosper without Americans going broke at the gas pump.
