The North Korean threat, American Airlines, and the Trump Landfill
Today on the show we’re talking American Airline, what I did over thanksgiving, and the ongoing sexual harassment allegations.
And we left president trump alone over the thanksgiving holiday, boy was that a mistake…
- Cathay pacific – an airline based out of hong kong,
- Reported that last Wednesday they saw a North Korean ICBM re-enter the earths atmostphere during one of their flights.
- This did coincide with a state report out of north korea that a hwasong-15 missile was being tested.
- The Hwasong-15 is believed to give North Korea the ability to hit a target anywhere in the world (according to US defense minister james mattis)
- Cathay Pacific did not release video or imagery of the incident and stated that the missile was far enough away to continue normal flight operations.
- Nonetheless, CP reported it to Japan’s air traffic control
- Apparently the new icbm took western partners by surprise.
- Over the past 40 years, north korea has tested many icbms, before the hwasong 15, the US west coast was as far as we believed their technical weapons capability existed.
- Now it seems NK could hit anywhere it pleases.

- Right after Thanksgiving, it was reported that American Airlines had a computer glitch
- The glitch made the booking system allow for more flights than they had actual pilots
- Thousands of flights were scheduled over Christmas (and booked) without pilots to fly the plains
- Interesting stat: Amercian airlines has over 200k flights scheduled for December (that’s an average of 6700 daily). Those numbers are staggering
- However American got with the Allied Pilots Association and as of this video, there are enough pilots to captain everyone’s holiday trips through the sky.

- 2017 will be known by us all as the year the cloak was removed from an infinite number of sexual harassment allegations
- With Trump and Moore being amazing role models, Here’s a summary where we’re at with men being accused of sexual harassment since thanksgiving break:
- Al franken’s list continued to grow.
- Matt Lauer got fired
- Charlie Rose is up to 9 women claiming he sexual assaulted them
- Glenn Thrush (famously depicted on SNL) is an NY political journalist who apparently assaulted any women within shouting distance
- Andrew Kreisberg not only loved writing comic book plots, but groping women involved in his on-screen creations
- Jeffrey Tambour
- Steven Seagal
- Oliver Stone
- Russel Simmons
- Ben Affleck…
- AND REMEMBER THIS GUY from episode 8??? He was so happy during jeff sessions Q&A, Republican Blank Farnenthold used a standing process in congress to settle a sexual harassment claim. The tax payers paid $84k to settle a claim brought on by farenthold’s prior director of communications.
- And in an even more sickening development, the flood gates might be opening on allegations against congress men.
- Ruben Kihuen
- John Conyers
- And Joe Barton are all naught men in some form or another
- When will it end? I have a feeling it’s going to get worse before it gets any better
- The house passed a new bill on Wednesday making it mandatory for all members of congress and their staff take sexual harassment training.
- Making it the largest bandaid ever used.

<<Roll bumper half way and interrupt>>
Wait, wait wait… this isn’t just a normal trump dump… it’s a special landfill edition
Let’s try that again…
New bumper
TRUMP DUMP
- Where to begin, where to begin
- Over the thanksgiving break, Trump re-ignited Obama birther claims…
- In a meeting behind closed doors, a current, active senator reported that Trump still has a hard time letting go of his claim that Mr. Obama was not born in the united states.
- The senator asked to be left anonymous and that he chuckled when trump brought it up.
- A quick history on this… Trump stated for years during and before his presidential run that Obama was not born a united states citizen, even demanding President Obama prove it by showing his birth certificate.
- In late 2016 trump reversed that and said Obama was born a us citizen.
- Now in 2017… Trump, off his rocker more than ever, has reversed that stance
- During the break, trump gave an absolutely fabulous, and the best thanksgiving speech ever given to a billion people said this:
- Video
- Third, trump pissed off an entire religion and nation tweeting anti-muslim, britiain first tweets:
- Britain First, a far-right and ultra-nationalist political group,
- the videos are cherry-picked depictions of purported Muslims assaulting people and, in one video, smashing a statue of the Virgin Mary.
- Trump is followed on twiter yby 44million people and tweeting such videos only grows divisiveness worldwide – but I don’t need to tell you how dangerous this is – you’re smart individuals. But maybe someone should inform the president of the repercussions of his actions… maybe his wife, or mother?
- It’s gotten so bad tat Trump is under fire for also possibly obstructing justice and the proof is through ihis twitter as well.
- I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide!
- As vox news mentions, this seems like just another bragadocious claim by trump
- However if n
- Acounced his full fledged support roy moore
- Is baiting Michael Flynn by stating how sorry he is for the position he’s in
- And just had his travel ban implemented by the supreme court.
