Fake Polls controlled by Democrats. Gallup had Hillary leaving Trump by 2.5% too and she lost! Sad!

I don't think you got it wrong, I just thought I'd change it up so it's a bit more in line with his posting style.

From a 2014 report to Congress on Nuclear Plant Security and Vulnerabilities - https://fas.org/sgp/crs/homesec/RL34331.pdf
"Nuclear power plant vulnerability to deliberate aircraft crashes has been a continuing issue. After
much consideration, NRC published final rules on June 12, 2009, to require all new nuclear power plants to incorporate design features that would ensure that, in the event of a crash by a large commercial aircraft, the reactor core would remain cooled or the reactor containment would remain intact, and radioactive releases would not occur from spent fuel storage pools."
Also, you apply that logic to a nuclear plant but not to climate change? Grow up. One of them is far more dangerous to all of us.

Awesome fake congressional hearing today so that a room full of deniers could grandstand, pretend there's uncertainty about the science, and beat up the only person who agrees with the actual science that was invited.
Regarding nuclear, it's a common thing to compare nuclear power to some magical source of power that has zero downsides rather than the actual alternatives. Makes it easier to dismiss.

Again, IF you watch the video from PBS, these new generation nuclear plants have all of this handled.
Please give it a watch, you champion energy independence, which we all want, so watch this documentary and tell me what you think.

But that's done by both sides, arguably more on the side supporting solely wind/solar, not just protesting new construction but actively working to shutdown nuclear reactors with decades of life left.

Ivanka now going to be an official employee.
Ivanka Trump, the elder daughter of President Trump, is becoming an official government employee, joining her husband in serving as an unpaid adviser to her father in the White House.

With all the security clearance one could basically want.
What exactly are her duties and why does this need to happen? Isn't she busy with other pursuits?

If it is true that she is the one person that can reason with Donald, it might be wise to have her there.

Much like Benghazi, the GOP is not giving up on these investigations in to an adversarial nation like Russia.
http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-d...-investigation
LOCK HER UP, LOCK HER UP.... Oh wait.
Quote:
e evidence is now clear that the White House and Devin Nunes, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, have worked together to halt what was previously billed as a sweeping investigation of Russian interference in last year’s election. “We’ve been frozen,” Jim Himes, a Democratic representative from Connecticut who is a member of the Committee, said.
The freeze started after last Monday’s hearing, where James Comey, the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, revealed that the F.B.I. has been investigating possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia since last July. Comey also said that there was no evidence to support Trump’s tweets about being wiretapped.
Today, the House panel was scheduled to hear from three top officials who had served under the Obama Administration: Sally Yates, the former Deputy Attorney General, who briefly served as acting Attorney General, before being fired by President Trump; John Brennan, the former head of the C.I.A.; and James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence. But last week Nunes cancelled today’s hearing.
“The Monday hearing last week was, I’m sure, not to the White House’s liking,” said Himes. “Since Monday, I’m sorry to say, the chairman has ceased to be the chairman of an investigative committee and has been running interference for the Trump White House, cancelling hearings.”

If it's true there's only one person who can reason with the most dangerous man in the world, that man needs to ####ing go.
