Energy Secretary Rick Perry, One Of Trump's 'Three Amigos,' Reportedly To Resign | Deadline | MSNBC
Lol another one bites the dust.
Bet he wants to spend more time with his family/ kids 😀
The Trump administration spinning at ever greater velocity and in ever decreasing circles until it finally disappears up its own a**hole.
Well looks like quitting time boys
I came here to compliment Steven….. but now I’m reading Bjorn, Marc and Frank and i’m spitting out my coffee laughing so hard. Your guys are my best new friends !!!!!
Dont let your guard down yet. We haven’t heard the last of these two amigos yet
Perry resigns so he can tell everything. His lawyers told him to do so😂
We’ll see
I bet Rick Perry is the whistleblower.
@Richard Dozier 🤣🤣🤣🤣 yes
The only reason Ricky is leaving is that Dancing with the Stars need him back to clean the floor!
@88Gibson LesPaul Trio-Migo-Lygo-Periodigo!
88Gibson LesPaul Oh Gawd! What a sight to see. Two Amigos and a Cow.
Trump university offering ballet lessons.
Do all the Orange Donorrhea men admit their guilt on television ? three stooges 🤔🙄🤪

@Steve Folkes yep they admit to try to make it seem legal.
Man the soda and popcorn supplies are getting low. VOTE BLUE
@Sade Torres= Tower of sexual perversion. That is the meaning of your name you know?
@Sade Torres Not exactly a “model business,” Trump Model Management is closing amid increased scrutiny of its relationships with teenage models, immigration law, labor laws and human trafficking.
Donald J. Trump owns 85% of Trump Model Management. He founded the agency in 1999. In April 2017 his financial partners were informed that the Trump modeling agency would be closing. This was purportedly to allow for a deeper focus on golf and Trump hotels — but Trump Watchdogs suspect that the closure relates to questions about Trump Model Management having violated a wide range of laws.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is apparently launching a formal investigation into the Trump modeling agency. Former White House staffer Claude Taylor reported Sunday on Twitter that Schneiderman’s investigation involves the high-level Russian prosecutor Yuri Chaika, who is allied with Vladimir Putin and specializes in collecting and wielding kompromat (compromising material) about political adversaries.

Some key takeaways from this article: Donald Trump appears hypocritical for complaining about illegal immigration. Also, teenagers who are lured to the US to become models — but are coached by agencies to arrive without legal permission to work here — are vulnerable to businessmen’s abusive fantasies.
@R E Moron.
@R E T A R D. There; I fixed that for you.
the entire republican administration needs to resign
Donald Trump ain’t that an ignorant statement? Very awkward actually 🤣🤣🤣
@Larry J love it
@Donald Trump Still looking for some down-low, I see. Good luck with that.
Resigning so he can testify and save a possible jail sentence.
Memphis Flyer They did that in Watergate to. Many jumped ships but it didn’t help some of them. 48 people went prison. For cover ups and obstruction. Including Nixon’s AG.
@Toni sumblin So who is going to be our John Dean?
Memphis Flyer That would be the intelligent thing to do. Hence being one of the “3 Amigos”……wanna make a bet?
@Karen Wentz Really doesn’t matter now that Mick Mulvaney just admitted to it on TV.
@Memphis Flyer I hope you are right on that one!
Another Trump loyalist dumped under the bus tires. You voters get this yet? Because YOU have next.
CD_ Promo Trump loyalists have been sicko since… remember during Obama election with McCain? Trump is an outlet for what is wrong with the country.
Speakie engie?
This is all about energy. Ukraine’s energy and Turkey’s and Russia’s desire to make inroads in that area.
Every foreign policy move trump makes…benefits Putin/Russia
Coincidence, I think not
Also to say hacking from 2016 elections came Ukraine not Russia….to remove sanctions from Russia.
Correct Russia has to steal the Natural gas company everything Trump does is to make Russia Great again.
All roads lead to Putin
Got him!
We are removing the entire Trump Crime Family Syndicate. Trump’s Filthy kids are going to Prison with dad.
@No,Isaidposse I’m a conservative recently ex repub member. One of the reasons I left the party is party is because of shroom chomping liars like yourself. Well done!
@newmove Weird… I left the Democrats for exactly the same reason.
@No,Isaidposse good! you have choices, that’s democracy.
@newmove Yes, it is. Except people who were Republicans, don’t become MSNPC fans, or they never really were Republican, or they’re lying. They’re WSJ readers who are now homeless.
@No,Isaidposse You have an opinion, that’s nice.
Well, we now know who Trump chose as his designated fall guy.
You don’t really expect Trump to take responsibility for something?
Michael Cohen tried to warn them all but no one listened.
Designated fall guy of the week, IMO
@Frank Winkhorst I can’t figure out why he even bothers to fire people caught in scandals. It certainly doesn’t inspire confidence that his administration is on the up and up. Has to be intimidation. He takes every opportunity to punch down in order to make himself feared.
@88Gibson LesPaul Cohen is still warning from prison, and as far as I know they’re still not listening. (Maybe the FBI is listening at this point)
“To spend more time with his family from prison”
Lol
Lol.
Everyone running for the life boats SS Trump is going down
and the USS John S. McCain is still in sight
@Donald Trump Projecting much?
After all: you came up with that idea. How many times have you fapped to that thought?
Reminds me of this old shanty song! 😂😂😂The Wreck of the Nancy Lee by Tom Lewis
I’ll tell you the tale of the Nancy Lee,
The ship that got shipwrecked at sea
The bravest man was Captain Brown,
‘Cause he played his ukulele as the ship went down.
Chorus:
All the crew was in despair,
Some rushed here and some rushed there,
But the Captain sat in the Captain’s chair,
And he played his ukulele as the ship went down.
The Captain said to Seaman Jones:
“You’d best put on your working clothes
While you stand and spray your hose
I can play me ukulele as the ship goes down.”
The owners signalled to the crew, saying:
“Do the best that you can do.
We’re only insured for half-a-crown,
We’ll be out of pocket if the ship goes down.”
The Captain’s wife was on board ship,
And he was very glad of it
But she could swim and she might not drown
So we tied her to the anchor as the ship went down.
The crow’s nest fell and killed the crow,
The starboard watch was two hours slow
But the Captain sang fal-oh-de-oh-doh
And he played his ukulele as the ship went down.
FMB1 Much respect. 😊💙
I wonder if these three goofs know that “The Three Amigos” was a comedy about three bumbling idiots? smh
Jeannie Speer 😂😃😅😆
BINGO
Your brilliant, you got it!!!
@Hazzycakes Annnnd….(wait for it)…They’re bad actors. lol
Does Mulvaney seem like he’s trying to convince everyone that this Ukraine issue is no big deal really, making it seem like he could barely remember (while he nervously taps the podium) the phone call?
Another treasonous traitor coward is what Mulvaney is!!
Sonya Wong he looked like he was crapping his pants. “Ummm I don’t know him” “who is he”? We do this all the time, so what?” Disgusting
He looked like he was in the middle of a nervous breakdown.
…as soon as he can clear out his dancing shoes. If he’s smart, he’d testify voluntarily.
Another one of Trumps “best” people.
If you are a criminal, traitor and Republican, you are a great candidate for trump. He only chooses the best.
There running like roaches when you turn the lights on.
Obama’s Energy Secretary: Ernest Moniz, MIT nuclear physicist
Trump’s Energy Secretary: Rick Perry.
I rest my case….
I wouldn’t hire Rick Perry to mow my lawn.
@Trill Bill He’d end up hurting himself
Everyone in Trump’s orbit is either criminal or becomes a criminal
MICHAEL COHEN prediction is so true.
sparramore Everything Trump touches DIES!
GOP RATS ARE BAILING THE TRUMPTANIC 😀
Agree
@Karen Wentz Oh crap, poor Ivanka.
This brings me pure joy. The “rats” will ALL start will start chirping like stooly pigeons.
Michelle, Mixed metaphor violation. Aside from that, I share your joy.
