Trump

[merman]

Republicans have a pre-existing condition - spreading disaster.

They've supposedly backtracked subsequent to being found out (rather, they say they will backtrack with a future bill), but:

GOP health amendment would exempt members of Congress from losing Obamacare protections

How there isn't riots over this shit baffles me.

Trump fires Comey

[Cloudane]

Finally firing him over things that happened half a year ago, just hours after investigations into Russian meddling in the election were really starting to get serious, and stressing in the dismissal letter that "I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation" - Not suspicious at all

Replaced by one of Trump's corrupt mates in 3, 2, 1...

From what i saw on Euro News the guy was in LA talking to his personnel and found from a TV in the background he was being fired. If that's how it was, it seems it was a "rushed firing", they couldn't wait till tomorrow or something.

How there isn't riots over this shit baffles me.

Partially at least it's because people in US do not see Health Care as a right but as a priviledge. They may have had something different during the last 8 years but there has never been National Health, or the idea of Universal Health Care as right. It's different here in Europe where several countries if not all have had some kind of National Health at least since the 1930s.

Sure, but you would have thought the "congress wont eat their own dogshit" aspect, or even the "lets give insurance CEOs massive tax breaks in this bill" would have got enough people angry, even if they did worship the magic free hand of the market.

[gumboot]

The people who care are too ill to riot.

Emergency protests going on more or less straight away;

New FBI director says nothing will stop him investigating Russian attempts to fix the election...

And there goes the US$. Second time in this last month. I was expecting it since he took over as President but it's still annoying.

NUKES are fake news now according to Trump's army of shills!

It's only a cent against the pound, but every little helps heh...

Hey, my AMD shares are in dollars. I'm hoping Trump is impeached sharpish and Brexit happens with no trade deal and we end up on WTO rules - sending us to $1 would be great for me !

1 cent for each dollar.
In 100 dollars 1€
In 500 5€
In 1000 10€
etc, etc

5€ = 7 espressos, 5 if by the beach, or 8 cans of Teifi's food, or 1 pack of cigs and 1 espresso
10 € = 1 Pocket Book + 4 Espressos, only 3 if the book is French, or just the book if in English.

However what worries me is that this is the 2nd drop this month, and from the month before to this one already dropped a little bit too. And impeachments are not fast, they can take a while.
