Did you ever watch Fox News during the last admin?

 


seriously, stfu

 

 

I'm not a FOX follower. I'm also not a fan of obsession on either side.

 

So, if you wish to respond to me, then do so with something that is relevant to my views.

 

Otherwise, just STFU

I see a big difference between using a product and endorsing it, but see yourself point as well. 

 

Using a product is a bigger endorsement than merely hawking it.

What's to like about your replies? They are typically uninformed, non-insightful, and generally reflective of a room temperature IQ...

OOOHHH   where can I buy it? 

 

If it's a publicly sold product then Obama was wrong.

 

3 wrongs don't make it right.  

 

 

 

But 3 lefts make a right.

White House Honey Ale is the first beer known to have been brewed in the White House. The process began in January 2011  at the request of President Barack Obama who purchased the homebrewing kit using his personal funds

 

As of 2012, three styles have been brewed in addition to Honey Ale: White House Honey Blonde Ale, White House Honey Porter and White House Honey Brown.

Contrary to popular belief, Obama likes the honeys.

The President (not Ivanka) is exempt from the ethics rules relevant to the conversation.  That's why Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama could all state their brand preferences openly while president. 

Any excuse to put her in handcuffs, eh?

Seriously?  Didn't anyone in the Trump Administration take Ethics Training?  

 

https://www.thoughtco.com/code-of-ethics-for-us-government-service-4052443

 

A violation of federal ethics laws that prohibit federal employees from using their positions "to endorse any product, service or enterprise."

 

Then Donald basically does these damn thing! 

 

 

 

 

So hold on a sec …

 

Chelsea Handler is trying to punish a company run by minorities and she thinks that proves she’s not racist? Did we read this right?

 

Because while we’re clearly not experts on the matter, a rich, somewhat powerful white woman trying to cancel a minority brand seems pretty damn racist.

 

Not to mention when she put herself side-by-side with Ivanka Trump she looks like a pile of wet, hammered potato salad:

 

 

 

Yeah, this was stupid.

 

But it is Chelsea Handler we’re talking about.

It’s hilarious that people want ethics in politics and only point to a can of beans from a member of the Trump family and completely overlook a decades long lack of honestly, sincerity, ethics and morals from government as if it’s only existed under Trump and solely caused by him.

 

 

Newsflash; you’re favorite career politicians and admin currently grandstanding against Donald Trump,  statues, “police brutality”, “climate change”, sports team names, viruses, rich people etc; have built the problem. They are the problem. They’ve had years to fix. They don’t. All they do is tie a little string around your heart and tug you in the direction they want you to go with promises. Then; they blind you with the next big thing and all of a sudden you forget what they were supposed to do until right up around election time. Then; they get that same little string and tug again. The ***** are glorified car salespeople. They don’t give a ***** whether or not you like the car, you can afford the car, or even if you can drive it. They care about what they get for putting your excited ass in the driver seat for as much as they can. Once it’s done; they won’t pay you no mind until you walk back through that door needing another car. 
 

 

Hell, some of y’all are eating out of celebs and athletes hands like they know what the hell they’re talking about. They’re the most out of touch members of our society. Imagine making millions upon millions to pretend on a screen and still be able to convince the middle class that somehow it’s rich people causing all your problems. Well, all of the rich people except you. You get them. You understand them. Hahaha! Give me the deed to the Brooklyn Bridge.

No, they are politicians much like this great country has always had. Trump is an ugly tumor that has grown up from the dirty places in this country's most vile recesses. He will be destroyed

Chelsea Handler is an alcoholic. A former girlfriend she her in around 2008 or

2009 add said  here routine was all about her vag.She lost a late night show on the E! Network. You have to be pretty incompetent or drunk to lose that.

The ethics code that the salivating press is referring to is 5 CFR § 2635.702, which describes the act of endorsements under the Standards of Ethical Conduct for employees of the Executive Branch. The very first sentence details why there will be no charges brought. (Emphasis for clarity.)

An employee shall not use his public office for his own private gain, for the endorsement of any product, service or enterprise, or for the private gain of friends, relatives, or persons with whom the employee is affiliated in a nongovernmental capacity, including nonprofit organizations of which the employee is an officer or member, and persons with whom the employee has or seeks employment or business relations

At no time in these posts from Ivanka or the president can private gain be shown, can a personal affiliation be established, or any official position be illustrated. They backed a company without a personal payoff, a company who was working directly on a White House initiative. Exactly like Michelle Obama had done — with this EXACT – SAME – COMPANY.

 

The First Lady was involved in a project in conjunction with the USDA regarding healthy food choices for families and labeling of products to aid in smarter food decisions. One of the key companies aiding the White House, according to this official release from the Office of the First Lady, was Goya Foods. And for accuracy, do note who is named specifically in this release.

In support of First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move! initiative, Goya Foods, the largest, Hispanic-owned U.S. food company, is committing resources to promote the USDA’s MyPlate, or MiPlato, a new food group symbol to remind families about making healthy meal choices with easy “how-tos” about proper portions. Mrs. Obama joined Bob Unanue, President of Goya Foods, and leading Latino organizations to promote their nationwide effort to encourage health and wellness in communities across the country. Goya Foods is rolling out numerous steps to help communities enjoy healthy, tasty and affordable meals

Same company, same chief executive named, same type of partnering with an administration, but a hysterically different reaction from the press. I think it is safe to say that Ivanka and President Trump are likely to incur the same level of punishment that Michelle Obama received.

Who was the last president that was both ethical and moral? Washington? I'm guessing everyone has been corrupted one way or another, every one.

 

...I'm guessing Hillary would have been, but unfortunately she lost......

Do not waste your time.

 

Note how he answered (Incorrectly I may add) that BillZtime was correct.

 

and he completely ignored my post directly to him that showed his whole premise for the thread was wrong.

 

It is safe to say that this demonstrates how laughable he is.
