Wasn't John Dean mocked by the Nixon administration until the tapes proved he told the truth?

Careful Donny.

He is also looked up to, not disgraced. I saw him speak at the UofWA with John McCay the attorney that was fired for refusing to follow Bush's order to carry out a political prosecution. I was impressed when Dean described how people in the WH around Nixon or any POTUS get caught up in celebrity. He said he came to his senses and realized it was wrong. That's when he started cooperating with the prosecution.

What deal did he make with Mexico? Where is the text?

It can be found in the plan both countries agreed to months ago. Mexico just committed to doing what it already said it was going to do. I assume the negotiating team added colorful graphics with pictures of helicopter gunships and commandos in balaclavas to the Power Point slides from the first time he got this briefing and called it a new deal.

John Dean is a rat. He's disgraced because he was disloyal to his boss. That's the measure of which Trump is referring. To Trump, it's not about the law.

I have been briefed on the helicopter crash in New York City. Phenomenal job by our GREAT First Responders who are currently on the scene. THANK YOU for all you do 24/7/365! The Trump Administration stands ready should you need anything at all.

Imaginary thought bubble of first responders: "You know what we really need? For you to not try to latch onto this incident to make it about your glory and STFU. Could you maybe get right on that, it'd help a bunch. Thanks much."

Really? Really??!

How about your resignation and departure from the White House and the country. Possible?

The Great Orange Turdblossom has to insert himself into any situation. "Hmm, how can I get my name associated with actual heroes? Hopes and prayers? Naah, that's not good enough. Pick up the tab for the rescue effort? No, that'd cost me money! Oooh, I know, I'll offer them something they don't need and if they accept, it'll cost the taxpayers and not me!"

The Trump Administration (note the upper case A) stands ready to help! Betsy is going to knit you some tea cozies. Miller is going to come make sure you have separate clean-up facilities for the coloreds. Ivanka's going to... well, as usual, nothing.

Seriously, what "administration help" could they possibly need. Pay your damned taxes, Donnie! That way the city will have the money to continue to perform as admirably.

Next he'll be tweeting about how he watched the helicopter go down from the Oval Office window, that he paid 100 or more of his own people out of his own pocket to help and that he saw thousands of illegal immigrants celebrating the crash across the river in New Jersey.

If you read the entire list you would now know that every country in the world has better vacation pay than the USA. Just another example of American exceptionalism.

Not quite every. Palao and Narau, for example, match the US! Major world powerhouses, both of them!



Anyways, random news time!

Trump picks extremist who compared immigrants to rats to lead immigration agency.

Seriously, the myriad of ways in which this Administration is effectively copying Hitler's Germany are absurd.

In tangentially related news... ICE has no idea exactly how many veterans it has deported, watchdog report finds

"Because ICE does not maintain complete electronic data on potentially removable veterans it encounters, ICE does not know exactly how many veterans have been placed in removal proceedings or removed,” the Government Accountability Office said in a new report. ICE has policies in place that it’s supposed to follow when it decides to take the oh-so-patriotic action to arrest a military veteran, but the GAO found these were not being followed either.

<snip>

This negligence goes far beyond affecting immigrant service members. Late last year, ICE tried to deport a U.S.-born Marine veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder, after an off-duty Michigan police captain turned federal immigration officials on him. Lance corporal and tank crewman Jilmar Ramos-Gomez was carrying his passport and a REAL ID-compliant driver's license, yet ICE kept him detained for three days.

ICE, still out of control.

In Kushner news - Company part-owned by Jared Kushner got $90m from unknown offshore investors since 2017

That sure looks like a conflict of interest, for some reason.
 
As someone tweeted concerning the Mexico 'deal'

TRUMP: I'm going to burn down your house!

NEIGHBOR: Oh, shut up...

TRUMP: I'm going to BURN DOWN your house!

NEIGHBOR:

TRUMP: I'm going to BURN DOWN your HOUSE!

NEIGHBOR:

TRUMP: OK, I'm not going to burn down your house. I WIN!!!

GOP: Man's house spared! Trump is a hero!
