Gannon clearly paused with that gesture. No one uses all five fingers to point. That wasn't a mistake.

I hope some hero clad in green slays Gannon and rescues the princess.

latest Newspeak news from Trumpland:

Officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the very agency tasked with saving and protecting the lives of the most vulnerable, are now under order by the Trump administration to stop using words including "vulnerable" in 2018 budget documents, according to The Washington Post.

In a 90-minute briefing on Thursday, policy analysts at the nation's leading public health institute were presented with the menu of seven banned words, an analyst told the paper. On the list: "diversity," "fetus," "transgender," "vulnerable," "entitlement," "science-based" and "evidence-based."

From a CNN article:

"Trump has told one senator repeatedly that the ongoing probes undermine his standing on the world stage and make it harder for him to work with foreign leaders..."

Really? He thinks that's what's undermining his standing on the world stage and making it more difficult to work with foreign leaders?

I want to have health insurance again. Do you guys think we will ever get to a point where I can have it?

[Blackened Soul]

Only if you can get people to stop voting based on values that are based on the dark ages and get people to understand that worshiping the wealthy is not in their best interests.. so.. no.. you are going to have to defect to Cuba.
