You have chihuahuas nipping at your heels. I wouldn’t let them bother me. They are pretty small. Don’t worry about them.

Great. The sun has yet to rise on a day when I cared what you thought about me.

That’s an insult to chihuahuas.

You have to archive this story on FR. As a bonus, one Freeper (I forgot which one) had a nephew who worked for the new OMB staff and the freeper ALSO narrated the story how they replaced the locks the previous night so the idiot “obama boss” (who later sued Trump because she wanted the job for life but failed miserably ) would not get into the office. Which actually happened..

Thanks, I was looking at the Consumer Protection bureau, but found nothing.

The “Leader” there was also assuming a lifetime appointment.

I’ll go follow up now.

Thanks.

Could it be the CFPB ?

Mulvaney was appointed Acting Director of CFPB over Leandra English, who was appointed by Director Richard Cordray who then stepped down.
She sued to try and keep the job.

I know mulvaney changed the name of the CFPB, I didn’t know he changed the locks overnight.

If it is about the OMB, I apologize and can we have a link ?

I have always thought that if somebody seriously wanted to research these subjects, they should go to FR first. There’s a lot of people on the ground here who know what they’re talking about and have the names and dates.

This should piss the commie snowflakes off. Not really for any particular reason other than the ***holes love being pissed off.

A longshot...but even better than Mick.

“Sebastian Gorka: Trump should pardon Flynn, make him White House chief of staff”

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/13/sebastian-gorka-floats-michael-flynn-fired-nationa/

“The president could pardon General Flynn, and he’d make a great chief of staff, don’t you think?” Mr. Gorka said during an interview aired on the Fox News channel.

I’m guessing Flynn has had his fill of Washington politics. And I think he will get a complete vindication by the judge on Tuesday so no pardon needed..

OK, this is great news. Imagine a COS who knows how to get things done! It’s a multiplier effect for a guy like Trump.

It could make Trump 5 to 10 times more effective!

Mulvaney is one smart, tough cookie.

I saw a video of him and he was chuckling and joking and having a grand old time tearing Pocohauntas little secret agency apart. Probably but 1000 new gray hairs in her headress! This job needs someone like him, a good administrator, the last thing Trump needs there is a freakin politician.

I’m hoping Mulvaney has a strategy to get the wall. Maybe he knows how to use OMB to put pressure on the RATs. Maybe pay ICE and keep them employed while furloughing all the Amnesty Interviewers ...

Why is the President going with an “acting” Chief of Staff? Just yesterday he said he had five well known, talented people looking to take the job. Why not one of them?
