I think it's troubling that people think you can not show up for work without calling in or giving notice and it'll be ok. I've never worked at a job where that action would be acceptable (unless you were hospitalized or had an emergency). WTF people? Go to your shit but phone in sick first.hope this isn't real
Trump got the Obama wiretap info from Brietbart.
'That wasn't the only time last week when Trump put the White House stamp on a theory that originated on the edges of the conservative movement. Radio host Mark Levin voiced without evidence the idea that Obama had wiretapped Trump Tower. That accusation was picked up the next day by Breitbart News, the site formerly run by Trump's current chief strategist Steve Bannon.
An aide placed that piece in Trump's daily reading pile, said a White House official, who like other aides would not be named discussing the president's private routine. Fueled by that report on Saturday, Trump unleashed a series of jaw-dropping tweets that accused his predecessor of spying on him.'
Media the enemy? Trump sure is an insatiable consumer

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is embracing government numbers he once maligned as “phoney” as he tries to take credit for the latest U.S. jobs report.
The new administration on Friday promoted Labor Department statistics that show U.S. employers added 235,000 jobs in February. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.7 per cent from 4.8 per cent.
“Great news for American workers: economy added 235,000 new jobs, unemployment rate drops to 4.7% in first report for @POTUS Trump,” tweeted White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer. “Not a bad way to start day 50 of this administration,” he later said.
What a difference from last year’s presidential campaign, when Trump repeatedly assailed the report’s legitimacy.
Back then, candidate Trump denounced “phoney unemployment numbers” he claimed had been invented to make the Democrats look good.
“Don’t believe those phoney numbers when you hear 4.9 and 5 per cent unemployment. The number’s probably 28, 29, as high as 35,” he said last February, on the day of the New Hampshire presidential primary.
“The 5 per cent figure is one of the biggest hoaxes in modern politics,” he said.
That’s last year’s 5 per cent, not the new numbers reported on his watch.
Asked about the apparent disconnect, Spicer offered a smile and a quip: “I talked to the president prior to this, and he said to quote him very clearly: ‘They may have been phoney in the past, but it’s very real now.’”
During a speech at the Detroit Economic club last year, Trump pointed to figures that show one in five American households do not have a single member in the labour force. He failed to mention the one in five includes children, young people in school and senior citizens who are retired.
Though the jobless report has been criticized by others for omitting people who aren’t actively searching for work, it provides a benchmark that is similar to most other nations.
While business and consumer confidence have risen since the presidential election, economists also say it’s too soon for Trump to be taking credit for jobs.
“No new economic policies have yet been enacted,” said Scott Anderson, chief economist at Bank of the West. Instead, he pointed to an unusually mild winter that likely boosted hiring by construction firms.

Cold weather in February typically shuts down work sites across much of the country. But last month was the second-warmest February since 1895, helping construction firms add the most new jobs in a decade.
Chip Somodevilla/Getty ImagesDonald Trump has become a big believer in the Labor Department's employment statistics.
A survey of small businesses shows that their optimism is up since the election, reaching the highest level in 12 years in January, according to the National Federation of Independent Business. Other measures also show greater business confidence.
But many of the corporate announcements of new jobs that Trump has promoted — by ExxonMobil, Intel and Ford, for example — will take place over many years and were already planned before the election.
Trump and Republicans have been quick to claim credit nonetheless.
“The February jobs report exceeded expectations by 50,000 jobs,” said the Republican National Committee in an email, “another sign President Donald Trump’s pro-growth agenda is spurring businesses to hire ’aggressively.”’
Spicer, meanwhile, may have jumped the gun with his tweets. A 1985 rule bars executive branch officials from commenting publicly on economic data until at least an hour after its release. Jason Furman, President Barack Obama’s top economic adviser, said on Twitter that the rule was intended to prevent White House officials, some of whom see the report a day early, from immediately spinning the data.
Spicer downplayed that mini- controversy, saying he didn’t think happily touting news that had been widely reported was “exactly a market disruption.”
“I apologize if we were a little excited and we’re so glad to see so many fellow Americans back to work.”

Don't you dare try to undermine my meme from Reddit with facts. Next you'll try to tell me that Hillary supporters should be rational and make Valid points.

If that was real it would be the greatest executive order in the history of Murica
Lol countering reddit with 4chan.
2017 is the greatest year ever.
Was actually giving the softball openings that the Oscars are highly under-represented for Hispanics and Asians. But nobody seems to care about that.

Well, this is a fallout of previous events involving Erdogan losing his shit, because the Netherlands won't listen to him. It is a mess right now. Turkey agitating again. Calling the Dutch Fascists, a banana republic, etc... Now we got the Turkish protesting in the Netherlands... So yeah, get the fuck out, that is basically what he is saying.
He seems like a friendly fellow.
He represents the sentiment of the people right now. I expect him to pick up a lot of votes. He's kind of our Trump, with crazy hair and everything.

24 million will lose coverage under Trump’s health bill, says congressional budget office
Non-partisan analysts project that 14 million people would lose coverage next year under the House bill dismantling Obamacare.

WASHINGTON—Fourteen million Americans would lose coverage next year under House Republican legislation remaking the nation’s health care system, and that figure would grow to 24 million by 2026, Congress’ non-partisan budget analysts projected Monday. The figures dealt a blow to a GOP drive already under fire from both parties and large segments of the medical industry.
The report by the Congressional Budget Office flies in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s aim of “insurance for everybody,” and he has been assailing the credibility of the CBO in advance of the release. Administration officials quickly took strong issue with it.
