Conway: Trump administration will "rethink" relationship with the press
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, OR OF THE PRESS; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
- First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
Why is the Press included in that Amendment?
Why is the Press the ONLY commercial undertaking, the ONLY private enterprise, the ONLY profession, called out in the Constitution and given an enumerated right?
The Press was granted freedom as an enumerate right specifically because it is their duty to be the watchdog of liberty.
It is NOT government's job to determine its relationship to the press.
It is the Press's DUTY to hold government to account.

There is a real gofundme to buy Spicer a suit that fits!
Sean Spicer started his new job as White House Press Secretary today but, clearly, he had to borrow his dad's suit.
Help Sean buy a new suit that actually fits him so that he wont be so grumpy at work all the time.
The proceeds for this will absolutely go towards buying Sean Spicer a new suit in his size and will not be donated to Planned Parenthood under any circumstances.

Trump just fired the the head of the National Nuclear Security Administration and his deputy
the legislation authorizing the NNSA specifically prohibits non-NNSA officials from managing NNSA employees—agency staffers are only allowed to take orders from Klotz and Creedon or their (nonexistent) replacements.
Given Trump’s bombastic and erratic statements regarding the US nuclear arsenal, this situation should concern everyone.
It is not, as is so commonly said right now, normal.

Trump's EPA Pick Hasn't "Looked at the Scientific Research" on Lead Poisoning
No surprise really....
I feel sorry for the long term staffers who have to work with a no nothing. It is actually difficult.
I have had more than one boss who not only had no grasp of the details of the job, but did not care about doing any work.
Looking food over doing good.
Really a pain in the ass to be around.
This Moth With a Golden Head and Small Genitals Was Named After Trump
This centimeter-wide moth was identified by evolutionary biologist and lepidopterist Vazrick Nazari, who announced the find in a paper published Tuesday in the open-access journal ZooKeys. Nazari settled on the name N. donaldtrumpi because the silky yellow-white scales these moths develop on their heads in adulthood reminded him of the President-elect’s signature hairdo.
The moth is native to North America, specifically California and Baja Mexico (Trump’s proposed border wall won’t stop this flyer’s migration).
By meticulously examining specimens of the moth and its close relatives, Nazari was able to catalogue its unique anatomy, including its male genitalia, which is “comparatively smaller” than the moth’s close relative Neopalpa neonata, according to the study.
