In spite of the fact that President Trump took over with nearly $20 trillion of debt and the related interest payments on the debt, and in spite of the Federal Reserve (FED) increasing interest rates by a full one percent since the 2016 election, President Donald Trump’s debt is half that of Obama’s.
GOP on Clinton/Lewinsky: "We can not tolerate an immoral President!"
GOP on Trump/Daniels: "You want us to fire somebody because he likes girls?"
Typical right wing hypocrisy at its finest.
At least Trump does not have blood on his hands...
The Justice Department announced Wednesday it would hand over documents related to the Obama-era Fast and Furious gun scandal to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
Former President Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder had previously refused to produce documents requested by Oversight, documents which former Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz at the time called “critical” to pursuing the investigation.
The original Fast and Furious operation — conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — somehow allowed nearly 2,000 firearms to find their way into the hands of Mexican cartel members.
Firearms connected to the program were found at multiple crime scenes in both the United States and Mexico, including the murder scene of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.
Not to mention the Iran Nuclear deal..that's real patriotic.
Obama did do more..that's true..he made the government bigger..even bigger than Bush did. Is there a liberal in the audience that could tell me how the left are for the lower class folks? Every time they are in control I pay more taxes and I am not rich. Obama did good on higher taxes.
BTW, all men are capable of cheating so I can sympathize with Clinton or anyone else, it's not right either way.
Clinton did commit purdgery...average citizen would be jailed.
I give President Trump his due for some of the things he's actually done, which there are several. However, we need to reduce the federal debt, not just be happy we are adding less.
Although I think most of us are just getting our eyes recovered from the inhumane torture of that thread!
And for the record, if Trump did do that, it was totally wrong of him, but he also was not President at the time and hasn't lied under oath about it, unlike ole Slick Willie's indiscretions...
I'll be honest, even though it is wrong, I could care less who these guys bang and when. History has show that almost all of the Presidents have had a mistress at some point in time. Lets face the truth, why should they be any different than 75% of the population.
How low we’ve sunk.
Paulabe, or whoever you are, your words are a lie before you even type them because you're a fake, and a liar.
Back to the original post...this statement doesn't even make sense. Someone care to tell me what "Trump's debt is half that of Obama's" is even referring to? Only figure that I see as relevant to compare are Obama's last year and Trump's first year. The U.S. Federal deficit was $587 billion in Obama’s last year and it grew to $666 billion in Trump’s first year of his presidency.
FIXED!
Let's just hope the next one is a good, honest person who I can agree with most but not all of. Tired of all of this.
I wouldn't expect anything else from politicians.......
HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Sorry I had to change my shorts. I thought you said Trump is doing as well as Reagan. Last time I checked Reagan's people would walk through fire for him, Trump couldn't get his own people to get him a beer from the fridge.
I am no Obama fan by any stretch but to compare Trump to Reagan who is in the Top 10 of POTUS of all time is ridiculous. Trump will be lucky to be in Top 35.

Reagan got cornholed, and the American people eventually, by the Democrats with the Simpson-Mazzoli Act, AKA the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986
This legislation failed on all counts and is THE reason why we're dealing with the exact same crap 32 years later but on a larger scale. This was Reagan's (and America's) biggest failure of the past 40 years and will have negative implications for generations to come unless we grow a pair and FIX IT. If Trump can do that he will, IMO, EXCEED Reagan. This is an issue that's as big a threat to America as WWII was. Only with this it's a relatively peaceful invasion by a foreign force wanting to take over, but dangerous to us none the less.
Why the dodge faker? Can't answer this can you?
Atheist: You answer to Paul Zeiden but you list your name as Abe Froman. Which one are you and why do you continue to lie?

You know, Romney never paid taxes for ten years.
(That's not a FusionGPS claim, to my knowledge. I'm just making a reference.)
Oh, Washington Consensus, tell me more about the straight-shooting hard-nosed investigative reporter Glenn Simpson and how you can totally trust everything his clients want you to print.
A new book claims former President Barack Obama hired Fusion GPS to dig up dirt on Romney
Obama used law firm Perkins Coie to hide payment to Fusion GPS
The Clinton campaign would later do the same thing to investigate Trump
The Barack Obama presidential campaign hired Fusion GPS in 2012 to dig up dirt on Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, according to a book released on Tuesday.
The Obama campaign hid its payments to Fusion GPS through its law firm, Perkins Coie. The arrangement is similar to the one that the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee used to pay Fusion for its investigation of then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016.
...
"As had become standard practice in the shadowy world of 'oppo' research, the Obama campaign’s payments to Fusion GPS were never publicly disclosed; the money paid to the investigative firm was reported on campaign disclosure reports as legal bills to the campaign’s law firm, Perkins Coie," the book reads.
The Washington Consensus always knew this, too, but just didn't want to be the one to spill the beans...
Flashback: Obama Paid $972,000 Since April 2016 To Law Firm Used Before To Pay Fusion GPS
So here’s the real question. We know he paid them to pay Fusion GPS to get dirt on Romney in 2012. Was this money also used as a pass-through to Fusion and who has he been getting dirt on since April 2016? Was he the paying for the dossier or dirt on Trump as well?
Via The Federalist:
Former president Barack Obama’s official campaign organization has directed nearly a million dollars to the same law firm that funneled money to Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Since April of 2016, Obama For America (OFA) has paid over $972,000 to Perkins Coie, records filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) show.
The Washington Post reported last week that Perkins Coie, an international law firm, was directed by both the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton’s campaign to retain Fusion GPS in April of 2016 to dig up dirt on then-candidate Donald Trump. Fusion GPS then hired Christopher Steele, a former British spy, to compile a dossier of allegations that Trump and his campaign actively colluded with the Russian government during the 2016 election.
Obama Directed FBI to Purge NICS (Gun Background Check Database) of Names of 500,000 Fugitives
Fugitives can't buy guns, at least as long as they're fugitives.
For some reason, the generally anti-gun Obama chose to define "fugitive" in a narrow way, and thus struck the names of 500,000 fugitives -- now no longer defined as fugitives -- from the NICS database.
he Justice Department under Barack Obama directed the FBI to drop more than 500,000 names of fugitives with outstanding arrest warrants from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, acting FBI deputy director David Bowdich testified Wednesday...
or the slinky?
she is a real gem, so proud to have her on film with microphones n stuff
Another tangentially related story about Obama administration corruption is how many of the Democrats may well be blackmailed by the Democrat IT Imran Awan and his family who had access to their email and other data:
A History Of Alleged Intimidation And Tampering In House Hacking Case Marked By Witnesses’ Silence
From the article, at least 40 Democrats provided access to their electronic communications/data to the Awan family. "...Blackmail or fear of retaliation by the Awans, who could read all the emails and files of 1 in 5 House Democrats, in the form of releasing that data or other information if they dare speak out against them..."

Regardless of political party you would think a leader that wanted to prevent racial tension would act in such a way.
Later we find out M Brown was a thug that provoked the incident. Obaman, imo, is as big a racist as Woodrow Wilson.
Too bad we can't just call it how it is without being accused of being a racist.

Good read.
They did this in Macedonia as well. There needs to be a comprehensive evaluation of all the USAID funds to see where else this is being done. Soros is using our money to further destabilize Europe and our position in it.
Via Fox News:
The Obama administration sent U.S. taxpayer funds to a group backed by billionaire George Soros to fund left-wing activities in Albania, a conservative watchdog group says.
The group, Judicial Watch, obtained 32 pages of records from the Justice Department this week through a May 2017 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID.)
The new documents show USAID funds were sent through the agency’s Civil Society Project to back Soros’ left-wing “East West Management Institute” through USAID’s “Justice for All” campaign. USAID provided $8.8 million in 2016 to that campaign.
The Justice for All Project was designed to strengthen the effectiveness and transparency of the courts in Albania. The project aimed to increase citizens’ trust in the judiciary and a more efficient judicial system, according to USAID.
