http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/359730-trump-thinks-scientology-should-lose-its-tax-exempt-status

...You know, this is actually a good idea. I'm sure somehow this will turn into another disaster but I really do think that taking the tax exempt status from Scientology is a good thing.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Just Scientology, huh? At least we can hope that it'll set a precedent.

Scientology loves doxxing people that go against them. Let's see what kind of dirt they can come up with in the Trump administration.

Oh dear god.  That's like the episode of South Park where the invading Jersey trash is pushed back by Al-Qaeda.

You heard it from Trump folks. Trump said Putin didn't do any meddling in the election because he's asked him about it so many times and he's said no. Because clearly someone that had done something wrong is obviously going to incriminate himself when asked about it. Right? I guess we can put this case to rest.

Thing is, I think the tax exempt for Scientology was judicially established. So it'd be a lot harder just to strip it away than it would to remove the tax exempt status for all religions.

Please tell me that someone hacked Trump's FB because he posted this:

Quote
Why would Kim Jong-un insult me by calling me "old," when I would NEVER call him "short and fat?" Oh well, I try so hard to be his friend - and maybe someday that will happen!

...


...Really?

This from the guy who has been insulting Kim and threatening other countries not to give any sort of assistance to him until he drops his nuke program and basically has been lobbying to restart the Korean war with his own incompetence in diplomacy.

It may have been a joke of his and another jab at Kim ...or he is just incredibly stupid and incompetent in diplomacy.

And yes, this is yet another "covfefe" level confusion causing tweet.

He even uses the wrong "there". Still, he's only the fucking president of the US and A. It's not like professionalism is important or anything.

Yeah, that probably is an attempt at humor. You can't be sure, though, since when it suits him he just unashamedly recreates reality ignoring opposing evidence and/or his own previous record on the issue at hand.

Paul Ryan: "We're with Trump."

Okay, then every stupid thing Trump says or does, or any indictment that comes against Trump, is now counted against the entire GOP. Gotcha, Mr. Speaker.

Yeah Ryan that wasn't the sound bite you wanted to get out there after the trouncing you had.  That was a dumb statement to make.

Speaking of dumb statements, after giving a black eye to our intel community on Veterans day, Trump walked it back Charlottesville Style and said now he doesn't believe Putin's obvious lies.  I guess he was told he could be murdered and made to look like an accident by people who he depends on to save his life might have opened his eyes a bit.  But I fully expect him to walk back that and go "BUT I REALLY DO BELIEVE HIM WHEN HE SAYS HE LOVES ME!" in the next few days.

Ironbite-can't wait for the next blunder.

So we know that the GOP is getting rid of the SALT deduction, because fuck blue states.

If you're an individual, anyway.

Under at least one version of their tax bill, corporations keep the SALT deduction.
