    That is what I thought but it seems as those thing may have been overblown. As Maddow said, we know he was not fired because of the controversies, because pruitt and carson are still on the job.

    Fox and its cohorts have gotten soft. That's why the Parkland kids freak out the professional right. The kids are not intimidated, and have no interest in the DC elite "can't we all get along?" bullshit. They're mad, and they know how to use the media to convey that. Ingraham has been a piece of shit for 30 years. Now she's finding out what happens when the hunter becomes the game.

    And it continues:

    "I came home to a kid FROM THE SCHOOL standing in btwn a group of adults explaining what happened less than 3hrs after it happened. You guys are talking about what you HEARD. I live in Parkland and have many clients in my home community. The student spoke and WE LISTENED, bcuz she was the one who needed the support. We cldnt tell her what to say bcuz we wanted to hear. The fact that you guys have such a hard time believing what you see isnt my problem. Anyone with a pulse knows something is wrong here."

    Sorry pal, your personal experience on the ground near the school doesn't mean shit. You're wrong. Snopes is right. Good day.
    How's that for a response to him?

    “The idea that the Republican Party should have something to say to African Americans in particular, and Hispanics somewhat subordinately, is a very important idea—not for the conservative base, but for especially the think-tank, public-intellectual side of the Republican Party,” Teles told me.

    “In fact, that was sort of the genius of Trump,” Teles said. “He realized that ordinary Republicans don’t give a crap. It’s just not something that’s important to them.”

    You’re the only one here who actually cares what this dickhead thinks about anything.

    The Administration has a layer of appointees between the cabinet secretaries and the civil servants in every department. It really isn't tough for some stuff to get leaked to make any cabinet secretary look bad. It's what happened to Tillerson, I imagine the same thing happened to Shulkin. I'm sure the replacement is a good doctor, but being a good doctor isn't what the VA needs.

    they cut it off...
    "There is one tweet I would like to call attention to. ‘So many signs that the Florida shooter was mentally disturbed, even expelled for bad and erratic behavior. Neighbors and classmates knew he was a big problem. Must always report such instances to authorities again and again.’ We did, time and time again. Since he was in middle school, it was no surprise to anyone who knew him to hear that he was the shooter. Those talking about how we should have not ostracized him, you didn't know this kid. Okay, we did. We know that they are claiming mental health issues, and I am not a psychologist, but we need to pay attention to the fact that this was not just a mental health issue. He would not have harmed that many students with a knife."

    Don may be getting on in years, but he can still smell out a mark from over 100 miles away.

    So is it wrong to tell him his own personal experience and opinions are meaningless and Snopes' answer is the only correct one?
