I guess you need to be conservative to make logical leaps? Collecting DNA from kids != murdering kids.
The CIA has done much worse than steal DNA. I'm surprised they weren't injecting polio into them while they were at it.
If you don't want the CIA stealing DNA from your kids, help your country climb out of being a terrorist shit pit, don't stop vaccinating.
The problem is these conservatives conspiracy theories actually cause real damage -- like we saw with that crazy gunman who attacked that Comet pizza parlor thinking Hillary Clinton was running a child sex ring in the basement , something he heard on far right kooky talk shows
But hey , as long as get corporate tax cuts and deregulation and our Supreme Court picks, everything is well. And look , we also "owned the libs " while at it , so total #Winning
One protester, just inches from Mrs. Chao, yelled, ?How do you sleep at night?? Another asked Mr. McConnell why he was separating families.

My comment: If they don?t want comments. Then do go out in the public. Better yet don?t go to Georgetown University campus for an event.
I have several questions after watching the video:
Can the senate majority leader speak for himself?
Can someone tell them about the First Amendment? (Students have the right to ask questions)
Why is the secretary of Transportation yelling at the students? The video clearly show the security detail.
Any thoughts?
I'm definitely not on the trump shithole hate train, that was just calling it like it is!
And right on cue .... here we go .
These doctors being charged sure must be "poor" and "lazy", gorging on "foodstamps" and binging on "cigarettes and alcohol" --- And this is Trump's own DOJ so don't claim it is some liberal vendetta being pursued
DOJ announces 600 charges in health care fraud crackdown
By Jessie Hellmann - 06/28/18 05:17 PM EDT
The Department of Justice on Thursday announced charges against 601 people allegedly responsible for $2 billion in health care fraud, including 65 doctors, nurses and other licensed medical professionals.
The DOJ described it as the "largest health care fraud enforcement action" in history.
Those charged were accused of cheating federal health programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, through false billing practices.
Of those charged, 162 defendants, including 76 doctors, were charged for their roles in prescribing and distributing opioids and dangerous narcotics.
?Health care fraud is a betrayal of vulnerable patients, and often it is theft from the taxpayer,? said Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
?In many cases, doctors, nurses, and pharmacists take advantage of people suffering from drug addiction in order to line their pockets."
The defendants allegedly submitted claims to Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE and private insurance companies for treatments that were medically unnecessary and often never provided, according to the DOJ.
In "many" cases, the DOJ said, patient recruiters, beneficiaries and other co-conspirators were allegedly paid cash kickbacks in return for supplying beneficiary information to providers, so the providers could submit fraudulent bills to Medicare.
"The number of medical professionals charged is particularly significant, because virtually every health care fraud scheme requires a corrupt medical professional to be involved in order for Medicare or Medicaid to pay the fraudulent claims," the DOJ said in a statement.

According to multiple news reports, McConnell and Chao had been attending an event on the Georgetown University campus in Washington when a small group of demonstrators confronted them. The protesters held signs and played audio published by ProPublica that reportedly depicts migrant children who were separated from their parents crying in a detention center.

Terrorism experts say Virginia shooting highlights disturbing increase in left-wing violence
The shooter, identified as James T. Hodgkinson of Illinois, died at a hospital, President Donald Trump said. The Belleville News-Democrat reported that Hodgkinson belonged to several anti-Republican groups on Facebook. Among them: ?The Road to Hell is Paved with Republicans,? ?Donald Trump is not my President? and ?Terminate the Republican Party.? He also had volunteered on Bernie Sanders? presidential campaign.

Huh ?? WTF
Mr. Trump was apparently referring to Justice Kennedy?s son, Justin. The younger Mr. Kennedy spent more than a decade at Deutsche Bank, eventually rising to become the bank?s global head of real estate capital markets, and he worked closely with Mr. Trump when he was a real estate developer, according to two people with knowledge of his role. During Mr. Kennedy?s tenure, Deutsche Bank became Mr. Trump?s most important lender, dispensing well over $1 billion in loans to him for the renovation and construction of skyscrapers in New York and Chicago at a time other mainstream banks were wary of doing business with him because of his troubled business history.

Wait whaaaa??
Trump's Approval Rating Rises Among Hispanics
In a new Harvard/Harris poll released this week exclusively to The Hill, President Trump?s overall approval rating rose to 47 percent, just two points shy of the highest level of his presidency, per that survey. The main driver of his growing popularity now: a stunning 10 percent rise in Trump approval among Hispanics.
That growing support among Latinos would surely surprise many Trump critics in Washington and the legacy media, who remain fixated on border issues. So intense is their hysteria regarding border enforcement that people like former CIA Director Michael Hayden compared our detention policies to the Auschwitz concentration camp in a tweet and MSNBC?s Donny Deutsch proclaimed on ?Morning Joe? that ALL Trump voters are essentially Nazis.

Well , now that we?ve established that you admire Obama?s astute observations , here is the money quote
I am sure he probably also had some TI posters in mind when he references anger issues on the right : )
Obama, at Beverly Hills fundraiser, says GOP 'mad even when they win' | Fox News
June 29, 2018
During an expensive fundraiser in Beverly Hills on Thursday night, former President Barack Obama accused ?the other side? of being ?angry all the time.?
Continue Reading Below
?They?re mad even when they win. Have you noticed that?? Obama said during a conversation with Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez, the Los Angeles Times reported.
The assertion contrasted sharply with recent news about public ?shaming? of Trump administration officials, such as Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, and GOP officials such as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
About 200 donors paid anywhere from $2,700 to $100,000 to attend the Obama-Perez discussion, which also included a performance by singer Christina Aguilera, the paper reported.
Much of the talk focused on Obama drawing stark comparisons between the years of his presidency, and the tenure of his successor, whom he did not mention by name.
?To a large degree, we are seeing a competition between two stories,? Obama said, according to the Times. ?There?s the story that is based largely on fear, and there is a story based largely in hope. There?s the story that says we?re in it together, and there?s the story that says there?s an us and a them.?

He also cautioned his fellow Democrats against taking for granted that their frustration with Republican leadership in Washington will coalesce in a ?blue wave? of votes at the polls in November.
?I would caution us from extrapolating too much from a bunch of special elections and starting to think that, ?OK, this will take care of itself.? Because it won?t,? Obama said.
?Fear is powerful,? the former president added, suggesting that the emotion helps motivate Republican voters.

They are too busy dismantling a deal that was actually effective.
