The resulting report is a near-random mixture of grievances and real problems.

    The report also seems not to realize that it is being written by the Trump administration.

    There are a few delightful digs like this in this article.

    The only thing that’s golden is the tacky veneer on the White House walls in the picture.

      Yeah. It’s a guy in a white lab coat (and for them, it has to be a guy) saying whatever they want him to say.

        Pregnant at 4, birth at 5 years old, 7months, 21 days. Youngest pregnancy ever confirmed.

        I would like to punch somebody really hard on the face right now. I need a drink. At no point in history should that have ever happened. I feel sick.

    This coming from the same guy who was confused about what happens with magnets just a few months ago and now he tells people in order to make money you “do magnets”.

    A real golden shower of wisdom from that bag.

    Miserable fucking sycophants. He’s actually ushering in a dark age worse than the one that followed the burning of the Library of Alexandria.

    This is just a euphemism for alchemy isn’t it. He’s going to dump billions of taxpayer dollars into a quest to turn lead into gold.
