Right now Trump is sitting on a stack of Trump cards or maybe Uno Wild Draw 4 (more years) that he just waiting to lay down like a fricking royal flush. He has court cases still pending that will go to the Supreme Court & thanks to TX case he now know how to file it under article 3 not 2 that will force them to hear it. He has the DNI report on Friday. Barr steps down 23rd (can now be a witness—he did his job). Durham is a special counsel (can prosecute in any state). He’s letting civil,...

Hey, all. I need a little help throwing together an upbeat playlist of songs to listen to at work. I work along at nights cleaning clinics for a local hospital and since I have nobody to talk to, I need to listen to something to help the time go by quicker.

Valerie Jarrett, a top adviser to President Barack Obama, says she and the rest of the White House remain "very upbeat" despite the series of scandals that have engulfed the Obama administration in recent weeks.“In any given day, our administration has about 2 million employees, and things happen,” Jarrett tells the Boston Globe. “We put in process procedures to make sure if there has been any wrongdoing, there will be appropriate consequences, and we will move on.”

An economist using technical data to evaluate California’s battered economy might agree with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s nationally televised declaration Sunday that “the worst is over” for the Golden State. But we doubt this assertion will sit well with most Californians – and it shouldn’t, for reasons both simple and complex. The first reason is that state unemployment remains stubbornly above 12 percent – the worst since the Great Depression – and would be closer to 15 percent if those who had stopped looking for work were tallied. The second reason is that almost all the legislation billed as promoting job...

RLANDO, Fla. — As he walked out of an auditorium Sunday afternoon, Grant Irwin Sr. pretty much summed up the feelings of Chrysler dealers who had just spent two hours listening the automaker's new management. The 73-year-old dealer from Northwest Oklahoma said he's impressed by the executives installed by Fiat and Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne, and optimistic about new cars and trucks that are coming. But he's also wondering about the short-term, which he and other dealers somehow must survive with an aging model lineup that pushed sales down 36 percent last year.

WASHINGTON – Turning more upbeat, President Barack Obama said Friday his administration is working to create a "post-bubble" model for solid economic growth once the recession ends. He said that means the days of overheated housing markets and "people maxing out on their credit cards" are over. But first, Obama said, "We've got to get through this difficult period." There are "modestly encouraging signs" on that score, said Lawrence Summers, Obama's top economic adviser, citing indications that consumer spending had stabilized after taking a dive over the holiday season. The White House attempts to be positive matched a fourth day...

US President Barack Obama is to tell both houses of Congress that the US will emerge stronger from the current economic crisis, the White House says. Making his debut to a joint session of Congress, Mr Obama will tell lawmakers "we will rebuild, we will recover", according to pre-released excerpts. Mr Obama's first weeks in office have been marked by the passage of a $787bn (£545bn) economic stimulus plan. Earlier, aides said he would offer a "sober assessment" of US prospects. He will emphasise that his hard-fought stimulus bill - which includes efforts to save or create 3.5m jobs -...

LIMA, Peru (AFP) – Asia-Pacific leaders wrapped up a summit Sunday voicing confidence the world would overcome the financial crisis within 18 months by jumpstarting global trade talks and resisting protectionism. The meeting in Peru marked the farewell to international summits for US President George W. Bush, who held final meetings with other top world leaders including a cool exchange with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. The leaders of the 21-member Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum vowed in a final declaration to "act quickly and decisively" to combat "one of the most serious economic challenges we have ever faced." In an unusual...

Gov. Schwarzenegger said Thursday that it wasn't a problem that the Legislature did not meet its constitutionally mandated deadline to pass a budget by the end of Thursday -- a feat lawmakers haven't accomplished since 1986. "Pay no attention that they haven't met their deadline. I think within the next few days we will see a budget," Schwarzenegger said. "We can do a historical thing here." In a meeting with The Press-Enterprise editorial board in Riverside, he predicted lawmakers will be able to resolve their differences over key issues such as health care for undocumented immigrant children, although he didn't...

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (AP) - For Gerardo Hidalgo, U.S. congressional approval of the Central American Free Trade Agreement is welcome news. If Costa Rica ratifies, it means he can export more rocking chairs to Texas and California - without tariffs or other trade barriers. But rice farmer Oscar Campos predicts his fields will soon be empty. He fears he won't be able to compete with big U.S. growers. Hours after Congress sent the pact to President Bush on Thursday for his signature, opponents and supporters in Central America were mobilizing for their final battle over ratification of the free...

Baghdad -- Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) led a bipartisan Senate delegation to Baghdad Tuesday and left little doubt that the Senate will soon approve an $81 billion supplemental appropriation passed by the House last week, most of which will go to pay for rebuilding Iraq's war-torn economy and countering insurgent violence. Reid and his six colleagues held a news conference at the end of a whirlwind one-day visit during which they met with top U.S. military and diplomatic officials in Iraq and leaders of the three internal factions competing for control of the government being established in the...

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- America is an unusually upbeat and optimistic country. A new Harris Poll finds that Americans are more likely than Europeans to say that their lives have improved over the last five years, and to expect that their lives will improve in the future. This is true whether they are thinking of their personal lives, their employment or financial situations, or their countries' economies. These are the conclusions reached when the results of a survey of 2,092 American adults who were surveyed online by Harris Interactive(R) between December 8 and 15, 2004 are compared with...

A sunny 'W' seizes the moment Bush intends to further consolidate power at the White House By Kenneth T. Walsh Suddenly, the West Wing is buzzing with a new sense of possibility. Reports on the assault in Fallujah (story, Page 16) have been cautiously positive. The president's first call to Harry Reid, the new Senate Democratic leader, raised hopes that he might get more cooperation from his congressional adversaries. And the death of Yasser Arafat may provide a "new opportunity" for Middle East peace, Bush said late last week in a joint appearance with British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The...

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Saturday signed his first state budget, a month-late, $105 billion spending plan that fell short of the celebrity governor's promise of an on-time budget free of short-term fixes, special-interest pressures and partisan bickering. Schwarzenegger signed the budget at a ceremony in the rotunda of the state Capitol, surrounded by county government leaders involved in the deal and dozens of tourists. The governor used his line-item veto power to cut $116 million from the plan approved earlier in the week by lawmakers. In his remarks, Schwarzenegger betrayed little of the frustration that, during the budget impasse, led...

HOLT - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Saturday he is very optimistic about reaching agreement on a law offering driver's licenses for undocumented immigrants and denied he is insisting the licenses carry a mark that flags the holders' illegal status. But the Republican governor said such a mark, which license supporters have decried as a scarlet letter that would lead to discrimination and abuse, would be the next best thing if he and lawmakers can't come up with other ways to meet security concerns, principally a way to verify the license applicant's identity. "If they cannot satisfy all of the security...

<p>FORT IRWIN, Calif. (AP) - Army National Guard troops headed for Iraq got an upbeat send-off from Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who praised them as "the true terminators."</p>
<p>The governor presented U.S. and California flags to the National Guard's 81st Separate Armor Brigade, which is deploying overseas for the first time since the Korean War.</p>

<p>SACRAMENTO - With little apparent substance to support his optimism, Gov. Gray Davis said Tuesday that he believes progress has been made on the state's budget crisis and expressed hope an agreement could be reached by the end of next week.</p>
