President Trump was nice enough to acknowledge Black History month. Yet These CNN Black Leftards just try any way to discredit him. So your guy want him to don't do nothing about recognizing Black History Month.

Who watched d recent meeting Trump had with the African American community? And the wailers would say, ''oh he's racist'' bla bla bla. Trump will do more for the African Americans than Obama ever thought he could have done for the past 8 years.

Sean Spicer's last press briefing was so funny, he has to be the most patient man in the world having to answer retarded questions over and over again. It seems for someone to be a reporter dat person has to be mentally challenged and derailed grin grin. With regards to the fired acting AG, imagine them asking him to define the word ''betrayal'' since that was d word d white house used as d basis. Spicer just ripped into one of the retarded reporter, he told her, ''You AND Your Network Are Part Of The Confusion!" grin grin
Where was this aggressiveness from the media the last 8 years?, asking questions like, Is it ban, a pause, a moratorium, or extreme vettinghuh..... Maybe we should take the words out of Hillary Clinton, ''What difference, at this point, does it make''huh!!! grin grin

President Trump to Keep Obama Executive Order Protecting LGBTQ Federal Workers
An executive order signed by former President Barack Obama in 2014 protecting federal employees from anti-LGBTQ discrimination will continue to be enforced under the Trump administration, the White House announced Tuesday.
“President Donald J. Trump is determined to protect the rights of all Americans, including the LGBTQ community,” the White House said in a statement. “The executive order signed in 2014, which protects employees from anti-LGBTQ workplace discrimination while working for federal contractors, will remain intact at the direction of President Donald J. Trump.”
“Donald Trump campaigned promising to be a ‘real friend’ to the LGBT community, and now President Trump is delivering on that commitment,”

Sally Yates, as an Obama appointee, should have resigned rather than allow herself to be fired by an unstable president.

But it's scary that Trump thinks he can run the country as a one-man business. I mean, how on earth can a President issue a far-reaching Executive order without consulting the DHS, State Dept or USCIS?
Even President Reagan acted in a more rational way when dealing with sensitive goby matters.

I'll try my best to support Trump whenever he acts in a way that is in the best interest of America; but count me out of supporting any moronic and idiotic initiatives from his White House.
Trump is right on on dis action, He ain't playing at all, you don't do ur job, u're FIRED!!. Did Yates think she was still under Obama administration?

RASMUSSEN POLL: CLEAR MAJORITY OF AMERICANS SUPPORT TRUMP’S TRAVEL BAN
- The poll was conducted before this weekend’s protests.
- The poll finds that 57 per cent of Americans support President Trump’s travel ban on people arriving from terror-linked countries, with just 33 per cent opposing the measure.
- Asked if they support a temporary 90 day ban on “refugees” from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen, a clear majority of Americans back Trump, despite widespread media criticism of the executive order
- The poll also found that Americans support a visa block on all individuals from those same countries by a margin of 56 per cent to 32 per cent
- In addition, not a single citizen from the top five Muslim-populated countries is affected by the ban. 87% of Muslims worldwide are not affected by the ban

Trump is turning out to be a despotic leader just like Putin his benefactor . The surprise coming to him is that Americans are loaded for bear to confront him at all levels. I know you don't know squat about America but I tell you what, he is bound to fail. I will leave you with this popular saying. ( They came for Jews , I was silent because I am not a Jew. They came for Muslims, what do I care. They came for Protestants and I wasn't one. When they will come for me there would be no else to talk. ) An injustice to one is an injustice to all. So you and your ilks going on mental organisms over trump, if you guys live in America , your thinking will be different . I hope Trump helps you to get your independence from Nigeria.
Lol Your argument is lost in translation and this is what u can come up with? *smh* undecided oya go and confront him na!

You are the one being sentimental. Do you think I want to endanger my family. Injustice to one is injustice to all . Why cancel people with Resident card from coming back to see their family. He's a bigot and that's why overwhelming amount of Americans are standing up to him including Former VP Dick Cheney and other republicans. Answer me why Saudi Arabia is not on the list since they are the biggest financial source of ISIS ?. Like I said, the rooster will come home to roost one day for you.
This is just the first step Trump will be taking, other nations will be enrolled as time goes on after they review their current status. There are many other Islamic countries not on that list too, but time will tell.

President Donald Trump debunked high-volume claims from the media, Muslim and left-wing critics who claim his new 90-day visitor safeguard policy and refugee reform is a blanket “Muslim ban.”
“This is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting,” Trump said in the Sunday statement, as left-wing and Islamist groups decried his new visitor safeguards in airports around the nation, and protested his planned reduction in refugee inflow to 50,000 per year.

“This is not about religion – this is about terror and keeping our country safe. There are over 40 different countries worldwide that are majority Muslim that are not affected by this order,” Trump said.

“My policy is similar to what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months,” said Trump. “The seven countries named in the Executive Order are the same countries previously identified by the Obama administration as sources of terror,” he added

Trump continued:

America is a proud nation of immigrants and we will continue to show compassion to those fleeing oppression, but we will do so while protecting our own citizens and border. America has always been the land of the free and home of the brave. We will keep it free and keep it safe, as the media knows, but refuses to say…

We will again be issuing visas to all countries once we are sure we have reviewed and implemented the most secure policies over the next 90 days. I have tremendous feeling for the people involved in this horrific humanitarian crisis in Syria. My first priority will always be to protect and serve our country, but as President I will find ways to help all those who are suffering

Like I said to you once. Googling is seriously affecting your mental health. What trump did is plain bigotry against a set of people . I am not a Muslim and no one in my family is but justice shouldn't be blinded by bigotry. How come the Gulf States like Saudi Arabia , Qatar and others are not included ?. Because of his financial interests and loans he took from the Oil Sheiks. The worst tragedy that happened on American Soil is 911 and 17 out of the 19 hijackers were Saudis. Say you what ?. Interlopers like you always foam in the mouth supporting an open racist who care less about you and the people like you. I do go out of America as much as I want and ten thousands of trumps can't stop me from coming and I guess you know why. I hate his policies because it will have a bad effect on America . I could care less about terrorists and their ilks infact I wish they are all wiped out. You wonder why most Americans are protesting his bigoted policy even his own fellow republicans. You love him more than Melania and his children . Your Kool Aid is chilling and that US visa waiting for you at the Embassy. Good luck on that one.
You see d problems with u liberals? When confronted with facts u just freak out. You are too emotional, sentimental and upset about it dat u can't even look at the facts properly. Since when is it so bad (or unamerican as u put it) to apply security measures to keep one's won country safe?

When I tell you your ignorance is out of the world you take offence to it. Obama never did anything remotely close to what the Bigoted one is doing. The good thing is that ACLU is on the case already and the US District judges have put a stay on his Bigoted policy. Even arch conservative former VP Dick Cheney said Trump policy is unamerican. Condemnation from both political parties is unprecedented in recent American history. He's a megalomaniac and a Demagogue to booth . If not for the good people of Nigeria, I would have wish for Nigeria to be on the list because of Boko Haram. Always trying to justify the garbage coming from the garbage man elected president. Out of many we are one.
I wish he did so with Nigeria. You are the one displaying ignorance because the Executive Order itself is Legal and the President has the authority to do so. It is not a ban on an entire religion, the Order didn't state so. The whole argument is being exaggerated and blown out of proportion by the MSM. By the way here is something for u to chew on:
This law was passed by the Democrats under Harry Truman...

Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952:

"Whenever the president finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrant's or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

Obama used this same law at least six times between 2010 and 2014 against people in Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Crimea without even a whimper from the ACLU, ADL, John McCain, Gender Netural Graham, Chuck You Schumer, Hillary, Mark Zuckerberg, Hollywood elites, or the establishment globalist media. Amazing how that works.

"Trump’s decision to ban arrivals from 7 Muslim countries will boost extremism", warns Iranian foreign minister


Wait so banning anyone from entering a country will make them tie exploxives on their body and blow up other people? Trump is right then. #BanThemAll
Obama did a similar ban back in 2011 on Iraqi refugees, no one on d msm cried a tear. Nevertheless I may have a soft spot on d folks that took off from their countries just b4 d ban was placed. Simple thing is the Potus is following up on his campaign promises and has specifically stated dat it isn't a "Muslim ban" like what most people are concluding.

ValerianSteel:
Do you cheer or denounce this?

Anyone cheering this is a heartless soul.

1. I'll start first on who is a refugee? A refugee is a person running away from a troubled land where all basic human rights and decency no longer exist while chaos tears through the societal fabric of that country. The unsafe environment prompts these men, women and children to seek a safe haven.

2. We should be glad they've always seen the United States as the beacon of hope where they can come to, be welcomed with open hands and live freely and better than they did in their former countries. The United States has actively led the world in showing kindness to people in distress by welcoming refugees.

3. The lives of refugees are made harder by the waiting and vetting period they undergo before being accepted into the United States after scrutiny from the respective agencies in charge. Sometimes, the process takes a short 6-9 months, others take 2-4 years. They are only accepted after each agencies agree such individual passed the test to come into America freely as there's no evidence they are a threat to the safety of any American should they come in. Let it be known even in the most dire situations, the process is not hastened or vetting gut for anyone, the agencies do their jobs thoroughly determine who can enter or not. In fact, some die during those waiting period.

3. If you are scared by a Muslim refugee coming to blow up America, know this 'no Muslim refugee has launched an act of terrorism on American soil". None ever witnessed, reported or arrested for being a terrorist. Why? Because our agencies do the right thing preventing them from coming in, a proper cross check of an individual's history, ties and past life activities are highly scrutinized to see if they pose an imminent or future threat.

There have been more terrorist attacks from home grown and radicalized Americans ( Muslim or not). America faces a great threat of a 'White Male going on a shooting rampage in schools, churches, theatre'. In the case where a refugee ( Muslim or not) does launch terrorist activity on American soil. You should not be more concerned, does that qualify all refugees as terrorist or bad people coming to do harm to America. If you think it qualifies, I hope we can qualify all White males as violent gun shooters out to attack schools, churches and theatres. There are always bad eggs in every class of the society but the hard fact is the vetting system is 99% safe. The 1% is a risk we can gladly take, we have institutions that protect Americans from potential attacks, who knows maybe among the many attacks the FBI and DHS have stopped ever included one planned by a refugee ( Muslim or not).

4. Do you believe the United States admits more Muslim refugees as our lying President Donald portrays? If you do, you are misinformed. The United States admits just as much Christian refugees as Muslim ones. Also know that Muslim refugees are under threat of existence just as their Christian counterparts from other parts of the world sometimes the Muslim ones are at greater risk in life. In 2016, 37,521 Christian refugees were admitted and 38 ,901 Muslim refugees were admitted in the 2016 fiscal year.

5. The order stops the admission of refugees from Syria indefinitely, and bars entry into the United States from seven predominantly Muslim countries linked to concerns about terrorism. Those countries are Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. Except Trump's ban doesn't Include Saudi Arabia, Egypt, U.A.E, Qatar and Turkey, some of the said financiers of terrorism with Saudi Arabia having a part in some of the terrorist activities in America.

Why were these countries off the list? You may say, there are no refugees here, people leave these countries and apply for refugee status with hopes of running away from the sometimes i humane conditions imposed on them there. The major reason they aren't blacklisted is because our Führer does business with them and avoids putting them on the block.

6. Refugees should not be turned away because they are Muslims or come from places where terrorist come out of. Why? Do you stop milking your cows because one didn't produce milks that day. We shouldn't classify all Muslim refugees as terrorist or evil because of where they come from.
The problem with the Refugee programme is that some of the Radical islamists also are absorbed into d same system. Too bad for the innocent ones who will have to suffer because of the bad eggs.

Thanks for pointing that out bigcycs. At the end of the day, anyone can voice their opinions. Shouting them down as non-tax paying America wannabees is pretty low in my book. And this is not just about Stench (who I find pretty crazy btw lol). Most contrary opinions are attacked in a similar manner - as long as you are in Nigeria you are unqualified to comment on US issues.

People are wired differently I guess. There are tax-paying Americans here who point out facts without rubbing their status in people's faces. Just like there are Nigerians who argue without saying 'Libtards' or Americans kool-aid drinkers.
You both are right, but they will never listen, believe me. Before the election I hammered on that but to no avail. The mere fact that their geographic location is in the U.S is a plus for them and hence they don't give a sh*t about anyone else's opinion, forgetting that this is nairaland, a naija forum for that. They can't stand the fact that people are very much involved in Foreign countries' affairs just as much as they do with their respective countries.

President Trump signed an executive order late Friday which temporarily bars refugees from entering the United States.
Trump signed the order on refugees while at the Pentagon, minutes after General James Mattis was sworn in as Secretary of Defense by Vice President Mike Pence at a brief ceremony which the president attended.
The executive order, “Protecting the Nation from Terrorist Attacks by Foreign Nationals,” contained these key elements:

-Suspended the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program for 120 days, prohibiting the arrival of refugees into the United States from any country during that period
-Ordered the Secretaries of State and Homeland Security to undertake a complete review of the refugee vetting process
-Permanently banned Syrian refugees until President Trump determined otherwise, and
-Lowered the ceiling of refugees allowed to enter the United States during Fiscal Year 2017 to 50,000.
