The Misadventures of Stoner Mom

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

BREAKING: Experts SOUND ALARM after Trump issues memo that could allow his staff to delete millions of White House emails in violation of record preservation laws. The timing alone should set off alarm bells. The Trump administration is currently being challenged in court over its preservation of government documents. And this week, it issued new internal guidance that a leading archives expert says gives White House staff "license to do the exact opposite" of preserving records. The memo, issued by White House Counsel David Alan Warrington to Executive Office of the President staffers, represents a "significant departure from historical practice" — Warrington's own words. It quietly rewrites the rules around which communications need to be saved and how. University of Maryland professor Jason R. Baron, who specializes in archives and the law, read the memo and sounded the alarm immediately. The new guidance, he told the Washington Post, provides nothing that "prevents the White House from directing the transfer or destruction of White House records, including tens of millions of emails, either before or after the end of the president's second term in office." The key sleight of hand is buried in the language. The memo says EOP components are "free to retain" previous record-preservation policies. As Baron points out, that also means they are free not to. Text messages now only need to be preserved "when they are the sole record of official decision-making" — and staffers are merely "encouraged" to memorialize those exchanges in another format rather than preserving the original exchange directly. Translation: if someone decides a text isn't the "sole record" of something, they can delete it. And nobody has to take a screenshot. Federal law is unambiguous. Presidents and their staff are required to preserve records related to government activity and turn them over to the National Archives at the end of each administration. Warrington’s memo, however, doesn't clarify whether these records will actually be turned over, and doesn't specify how Trump or Vance will personally preserve their own records. This is the administration that used Signal to discuss active military strikes in a chat that included a journalist. The administration that has fired numerous inspectors general. The administration that is fighting records requests in court while issuing internal guidance that makes destruction discretionary. "While paying lip service to the need to preserve White House records," Baron said, "the memo actually gives EOP staff license to do the exact opposite." Nixon erased 18 minutes of tape. Trump's team may be preparing to erase tens of millions of emails.

Question! When was the last time you called it "Twitter"?

@SChases647 @JoJoFromJerz That word is used to degrade and disrespect disabled people. Just say that you do mental gymnastics to justify your bigotry.

@stonermom73 @JoJoFromJerz Jo is retarded, she’s not disabled. There’s a difference.

Kash Patel is so fucked. 🍻

@D4_5t4Lk3r @freshcakesdon @JoJoFromJerz They project harder than a film festival...

@freshcakesdon @stonermom73 @JoJoFromJerz You Gomers tried to say the same thing about former President Biden. Guess what? Investigated by REPUBLICANS and dropped for lack of evidence. Do you know why? You have to PROVE your allegations when addressing a court of law. No proof, no indictment. No indictment, no trial.

@EdKrassen Right? I think there are a few reasons why they don't get along...

@freshcakesdon @JoJoFromJerz It's completely bogus, that's why.

@JoJoFromJerz Why aren’t you talking about the SPLC indictment? I mean, we know why. Your silence is deafening!

@freshcakesdon @dstncarson @JoJoFromJerz Prove this, and don't tell me to do my own research because you're either too lazy to back up your claims, or you have a nothing burger. Burden of proof is on you, bubby.

@dstncarson @JoJoFromJerz Pls explain why the SPLC created shell entities, fake companies &made false statements to their banks to obfuscate payments to their informants. Protecting identity is the wrong answer because law enforcement pays informants without making up fake companies & lying to banks.

@SChases647 @JoJoFromJerz Sounds like you hate disabled people based on your use of the vile R slur.

@JoJoFromJerz I can’t imagine my life revolving around hating people I don’t know personally. What a retarded existence but I’m sure it pays well. 🍻

@PatrioticDee @EllenBarkin

If you think it’s dangerous to have an alcoholic heading up the FBI wait til you hear about the rapist heading up the country.

@EllenBarkin @SassySinny They're everywhere Ellen!

Happy #420 ! #bakeboxx #stoner

@Spartankingfro1 @VinnysCorner1 Agreed! They nailed the PNW! GO HAWKS!

@VinnysCorner1 😎Absolutely!!😎

Is this accurate or na?

@nanners12321 @hook_roger4675 @Flipfled @em_Lazzy Is thst how you got your job?

@hook_roger4675 @Flipfled @em_Lazzy And sucked the right dicks.

How the fuck does the Director of the FBI go missing? What. The. Fuck.

Late last night, Republicans tried to extend FISA for 5 years. I voted NO.   This bill would allow Donald Trump to access your private data without a warrant. No more spying on Americans!

Best Helmet in the NFC West?!?

BREAKING: The Senate just voted 52-47 to let Trump bomb Iran without Congressional approval. The Founders gave war powers to Congress for one reason: To make sure no single man could start a war alone. That protection just died in the Senate.

Which Washington Huskies logo is the best logo of all?

@BraddrofliT @FactNc

Trump bragged he graduated top of his class at Wharton… There were 366 students. He finished… wait for it… 364th. 😂
