Ah, now we know how they're paying for the raises. Walmart is closing 63 Sam's Club stores across the US, the company told Business Insider on Thursday afternoon, after reports of abrupt store closings began to emerge.
Sam's Club has not said how many employees are losing their jobs. Each Sam's Club warehouse employs about 175 people, meaning more than 11,000 people could be impacted.
In some cases, employees were not told their store had closed before showing up to work on Thursday. Those employees learned their store would be closing when they found the store's doors locked and a notice announcing the closing, Sam's Club workers told Business Insider. At some stores, employees were turned away by police officers.Happy New Year! Good luck trying to find health insurance now that you're out of a job! www.businessinsider.com/walmart-suddenly-closes-sams-club-stores-2018-1

Apparently he's now on good terms with "Rocket Man". “I probably have a very good relationship with Kim Jong Un,” Trump said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. “I have relationships with people. I think you people are surprised.” When Trump was asked if he has spoken with Kim, Trump said he didn’t want to comment. “I’m not saying I have or haven’t,” Trump said. “I just don’t want to comment.” thehill.com/homenews/administration/368572-trump-i-have-a-very-good-relationship-with-kim-jong-untrue to form, Moon Jae-in rejected Trumps bellicose and belligerent approach and engaged in the dialogue he promised when he was running for president and gets Kim to come back to the table by offering the Olympics and Trump takes all the credit while as usual not actually achieving anything himself.

Trump's "sh!thole countries" comment was followed up by lamenting why we don't take in more people from countries like Norway.
Where they have universal healthcare, 6 weeks of paid vacation a year, paid family and medical leave . . . They don't want to lower their standard of living, that's why.

He should have said “white people”.
That’s what he meant. Not people from Norway. But white people.

Even if you accept "shithole country" as a reasonable definition, he's clearly a complete f**k**g moron who doesn't understand that refugees come from countries that are, by definition, shitholes. Just because he states that he only wants 6 foot, white, blond, aryan Scandinavians coming to the country, it doesn't mean there's actually any great political strife in Norway that requires it. Indeed, even if it's people moving to the US for economic reasons, the 4 million Norwegians have decent healthcare, decent social structures, are a more compassionate and tolerant society, and have full economic access to the EU single market and free movement within about 30 countries. Why would they give that up? (Unless they got bored of the weather or married an American).

US ambassador to Panama just resigned 'on principle' saying he could 'no longer in good faith serve this administration', this will mystify snowflake, in fact the whole WH will be scrambling to find out what 'on principle' means.

Some countries are shitholes though. That's undeniable.

another Trump lie exposed, though granted you could have a tickertape (if such a thing was still used) constantly fact-checking him and pointing them out. www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42663977[img src="https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/485/socialembed/~/news/world-us-canada-42663977" alt=" "] The building itself was never owned outright by the United States. It owned a 999-year leasehold, but the freehold is owned by Grosvenor Estates. The decision to move away from the Grade II listed building to Nine Elms was taken by the George W Bush administration in October 2008, shortly before he left office. The state department said it would begin construction on a new site in Nine Elms and the existing embassy was put up for sale immediately. It said it considered renovating the existing building but said the goal of moving to a secure, modern and environmentally sustainable site could best be met by moving. And lets face he cancelled his trip to the UK cos no one wanted him and he would have faced a lot of protests, would not have got a state visit with Brenda and so on, in fact little to feed his narcissistic ego at all.

Trump: “why are we taking refugees in from horrendous places, why son’t We take in refugees from secure, stable countries instead....?” The man is a complete racist retard.
