WE ARE MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! Delivering HISTORIC TAX RELIEF for the American people with the magnificent #TaxCutsandJobsAct. 💸

But a moderator, or a small group of moderators, hates it. And administrators are letting mod-bombs stand. Letting another very unfair Spam mod stand. To silence my message. I'm sure they have passion for our great country. But they're being HATERS & LOSERS. They could become WINNERS like me. But they want to silence my terrific message instead. To make it so I can only tweet once a day, like they did to fakefuck39. Whose tweets start out with a very low Score. Making them hard to see. Hard to read. Very sad!

Let me tell you, this is a great, and VERY SPECIAL, moment for our great Country. The RIGHT TIME. Time to take care of our people, to rebuild our nation, and to fight for our great American workers. It's a whole different attitude, whole different way. We can all come together and be proud! We will all succeed & grow together as ONE TEAM, ONE PEOPLE, ONE FAMILY. With one leader. I made a promise to the American people: eventually, we will get something done. And WE GOT SOMETHING DONE, it's beautiful. It's a beautiful, beautiful thing. Our team will go onto many more VICTORIES! Because President Obama did such a poor job as president, you won’t see another black president for generations! pic.twitter.com/lLgATrCh5o pic.twitter.com/HY353gXV0R

Every Vote Counts!

RICHMOND, Va. -- Among the holiday hustle and bustle of Carytown, Virginia voters react to what some might call a "Christmas Miracle" for Democrats in the Commonwealth.

"That's sort of amazing," voter Scott Williams said.

"That's pretty amazing," voter Ariel Furler said.

In a stunning turn of events, Democrat Shelly Simonds gained eleven votes in a recount to beat the Republican incumbent in the 94th District by just one vote.

The final tally: 11608 votes to 11607 votes.

UPDATE: Apparently it's a tie now. By state law, the winner of the tie will be determined "by lot."

Holiday Parties Gone Wrong: Careful Where You Hang The Mistletoe

*Holiday Party #WarOnChristmas

Went to McDonald's for lunch today (shopping at WallyWorld) and waited FOREVER!

It's not like they were that busy; they could take your money faster than anything. But then you waited...and waited...and waited.

I believe it is all to try to force people onto their app and kiosk: order it and it will be ready ahead of time: meanwhile, we'll lay off more people! Yay, we win!

My wife doesn't like the 'order kiosk': she doesn't like it taking away jobs, and I don't like the app idea (or McDonald's period). Even as a person of autism who doesn't care for interacting with people, I prefer talking to a person ( I can then hold THEM responsible for a screwup, lol).

We finally get our food and the order is wrong, so we have to go back up and get it done again.
Meanwhile, people have had their money taken from them quickly and are lining up to get their food and the line just keeps getting longer and longer and people are waiting longer and longer....

(I prefer A&W: better food, great rootbeer, much better fries.)

So my guess is that McDonald's is willing to take a short term kick up the ass and make their customers wait longer and longer in order to make them order THEIR way.
Me, I'd just rather wait at A&W.

Isn't it fantastic that lightweight Senator Bob Corker, who helped President Obama give us the bad Iran Deal & couldn't get elected dog catcher in the Great State of Tennessee, is now on board with Tax Cuts! And so is Little Marco Rubio. So happy to hear that! It's FULL STEAM AHEAD for Tax Cuts & Jobs. Give me goddamned steam! Flaky Flake, get on. Chuck & Nancy, if you're reading this -- I think you're reading this -- I saved your seats. Don't let the Trump Train leave Tax Cut Junction without you......Goofy Elizabeth Warren, you too, let's see Pocahontas make peace with Big White Man Chief......bing bing, bong bong, bing bing bing.......You Dems have donors too. 🚂

Palihapitiya's initial remarks included the statement that Facebook "overwhelmingly does good in the world". Maybe that wasn't good enough for somezucky?

Former Facebook Exec Who Suggested Social Media Was Destroying Society: I Love Facebook

He's already rich. He can feed his kids. But can he protect them from the reach of Facebook?

Our thoughts and prayers are with Rebecca Johnson, brave widow of Dan Johnson, a true patriot & friend of Kentucky. Another victim of the purposely false and defamatory stories FABRICATED & put out by the Fake News Media. They are out of control - correct reporting means nothing to them. Major lies written, then forced to be withdrawn after they are exposed...a stain on America! They should be ashamed. "His fight will go on." We are with you! fxn.ws/2AmL7yI

Thank you, Omarosa, for your service. To The Apprentice, Celebrity Apprentice, Donald J. Trump Presents the Ultimate Merger, and least of all, the White House. Good luck, and maybe, probably, we will make great television together again. #TrumpTV
