The "this is fine" meme describes everything in DC right now

I thought Obama was a narcissist but damn...

This is a cheesy scene from a dystopian future B-movie.

What a complete and total takedown. Good read.

Damn I wish I had a computer and photoshop right now. Someone needs to make a picture of smiling Trump in the fashion of the North Korean Kims.

 

[AR Husker Fan]

This essentially is Trump endorsing state-approved media. What's next? An official, U.S. sanctioned religion?

I would imagine the White House's Spanish-language page coming down isn't an accident, and that at some point the Trump Administration is going to push for English to be America's official language.

Thank you. This is how I feel but I'm not so eloquent or knowledgeable.

I could see this happening as well....since 31 States already have designated English as the official language of their respective State.

It's not something I would be against, either. I don't know the reasoning behind not having an official language. We clearly speak English as a primary language, so why not make it official?

As long as we don't stop making information available in other languages for people who haven't learned English yet, what's the issue?

When my ancestors came to America, they would work during the day, then take government-sponsored English language courses at night. I heard the same story from my in-laws about their parents. It makes sense to me to do that.
