    One of the scariest things I've read is that POTUS has hired private security. He either can't trust the secret service OR he's paranoid and falsely believes he can't trust the secret service.

    The silence about this says it all. Just silly useless memes from the dog.

    According to the draft copy of Trump's executive order, the countries whose citizens are barred entirely from entering the United States is based on a bill that Obama signed into law in December 2015.

    Obama signed the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act as part of an omnibus spending bill. The legislation restricted access to the Visa Waiver Program, which allows citizens from 38 countries who are visiting the United States for less than 90 days to enter without a visa.

    Though outside groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union and NIAC Action — the sister organization of the National Iranian American Council — opposed the act, the bipartisan bill passed through Congress with little pushback.

    At the initial signing of the restrictions, foreigners who would normally be deemed eligible for a visa waiver were denied if they had visited Iran, Syria, Sudan or Iraq in the past five years or held dual citizenship from one of those countries.

    In February 2016, the Obama administration added Libya, Somali and Yemen to the list of countries one could not have visited — but allowed dual citizens of those countries who had not traveled there access to the Visa Waiver Program. Dual citizens of Syria, Sudan, Iraq and Iran are still ineligible, however.

    So, in a nutshell, Obama restricted visa waivers for those seven Muslim-majority countries — Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Libya and Yemen — and now, Trump is looking to bar immigration and visitors from the same list of countries.

    Two there should be; no more, no less. One to embody power, the other to crave it.

    Every time Rasta copies and pastes a tweet here, The Trail Blazers lose a game.

    edit: for grave sin.

    I may be late to the party on this one, but looking at this tweet I just realized that Bannon looks a lot like current day Russell Crowe

    Maybe that's who will play him when they make the movie....they will have to use CGI Trump, and voice samples of him to create his dialogue.
