Trump DISGRACES "The Medal of Freedom" for Personal Political Purposes

Rush Limbaugh awarded Medal of Freedom in surprise State of the Union move

People close to Trump say he personally enjoys granting his friends the nation's highest civilian honor.



President Donald Trump announced Friday that former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, among the country’s highest civilian awards.

The announcement came nine days after the coach delivered a speech in support of the president at the Republican National Convention, claiming Democratic nominee Joe Biden to be a “Catholic in name only despite significant evidence of the former vice president’s faith.

Miriam Adelson, one of the Republican Party’s pre-eminent megadonors.

Adelson’s Presidential Medal of Freedom — which liberals are mocking as an award for the $113 million Adelson and her billionaire casino mogul husband, Sheldon Adelson, contributed to conservative candidates, super PACs and other political committees during the 2018 midterm elections — comes as some Republicans are fretting about the party’s reliance on a handful of aging billionaires.
 
ellen degeneras got one

the medal is for popular figures
 
Rush Limbaugh is about as unAmerican as a person can get.

So it makes sense that our vile President would give him one.

The Presidential Medal of Freedom is an award bestowed by the president of the United States to recognize people who have made "an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States, world peace, cultural or other significant public or private endeavors".

So what has Ellen Degeners done to get one?
more so after all the reports came out of her treating her staff and others like a POS?

hmmm hypocrisy and faux outrage once again can be dismissed.

Limbaugh spews hate and dissension, promoting contempt trying to incite rage everyday of his life. he damages America with his Political Divisiveness, he feeds off the ignorance of people, for self enrichment, and to promote his antagonistic evilness... to him it is profitable, to those who he supports by promoting such... it promote the divisiveness that is beneficial to distract the people, while the wealthy fleece the nation and the nations people.

Rush Limbaugh should never have been allowed even in the same building as a person receiving this award ... it was a national disgrace of the purpose of the Award to have given it to Limbaugh.

You know why she got it... It was because of her Public Disclosure of being Homosexual, which became a confirmation in society that people who are homosexual should not be mistreated or made to feel they have to be ashamed of their choice.

As to the current disclosure of her conduct related to her show and employees... that is a new issue that has been brought to surface. Its not like anyone is going to retract her award... nor will anyone retract the one received by Limbaugh, Holtz, or Adelson.

Thank you for showing your lack of respect for the Symbolism of What The Award is For.

yeah, he did it all for money...


  • In 1971 he dropped out of college
  • At 20yo, he took a job at WIXZ-AM (his name was "Bachelor Jeff" Christie)
  • In 1973, he was fired ("personality conflict")
  • In 1974, he started at KQV-AM in Pittsburgh
  • In late 1974, he was fired
  • Limbaugh returned to living with his parents
  • In 1975, he started at KUDL in Kansas City (hosted a public affairs talk program which allowed him to develop his style and present more controversial ideas)
  • In 1977, he was fired
  • In 1977, he started at KFIX.
  • In 1977, he was fired (disagreements with management)
  • He looked back on himself as "a moderate failure [...] as a deejay"
  • In 1979, he started with the Kansas City Royals (sales)
  • In 1983, he started at KMBZ-AM (as Rush Limbaugh)
  • He was fired
  • In 1984, he started at KFBK-AM in Sacramento, CA (replacing Morton Downey Jr)



And the rest is history.
 
So as i said she got it for no reason congrats on the hypocrisy and faux outrage.

Your comment does not deserve any further commentary.

Many trumpsters can see the damage that Trump has done to the country, but they vote for him because they see him poking the people they hate in the eye and that makes them feel better. They are what we called Trailer trash when I lived in the south. They hate black, jews and Catholics, not always in that order.

See that just shows you don't have a clue. People vote for Trump because they are tired of liberal BS. They don't like liberal policy positions, such as abortion, open borders, sanctuary cities, Green new Deal, crummy trade deals, paying for all the cost of things like NATO and UN. We have sucked up to so many countries in the area of trade and given up jobs because we signed crap deals. We were footing he bill for he Paris Accords and getting nothin from it, because Russian, China and India were doing nothing to cut carbon footrprint but we were the moneypit.

I know what it’s for, and the President used it correctly. Just because you disagree has no bearing. Obama gave several to his buddies, hell he got a Nobel for less himself

Just another reason for you to disagree with Trump.:roll:

You want to dissect Trump's EO's? The people Trump has pardoned?

Do you even have a clue that the U.S. Chose to pay more, because for one it was claimed as the most wealthy country, (2). The United States, was buying INFLUENCE, because it want the controlling voice. in NATO and the UN and WHO... Instead of working with Mutual Respect Diplomacy, The US paid the extra because they cared more about the dominant influence than they caread about equality of respect of Nation via Diplomacy.

Most of you people don't think any deeper than FOX and Right Wing Media tells you to think.... Its why no one can stand the ignorance of the Right Wingers and Conservatives. They do nothing but parrot Bull****, they don't have the attention span to think deeper, because EVERYDAY the Right Wing Media feeds them something different "attack"... to ensure they don't have time to think anything through.
Right Winger WILL NEVER get to DICTACTE TO WOMEN AS IF ITS SOME VICTORIAN AGE, but the eagerness of Right Winger to all ways to tell others what to do, is a pathetic sickness because they have a delusion they are superior and think they are some model others should emulate.

Nobody is interested in molding themselves behind that incessant cycle of ignorance.

Most of too under-educated to know hat the Greed Deal Is... Nor do they understand what Eisenhower said, 60 yrs ago, because they don't have the attention span to remember.

Eisenhower said.
"As we peer into society’s future, we–you and I, and our government–must avoid the impulse to live only for today, plundering, for our own ease and convenience, the precious resources of tomorrow," he said. "We cannot mortgage the material assets of our grandchildren without asking the loss also of their political and spiritual heritage."

America created the Trade Deal, because they wanted to secure "Cheap Labor'... and if you know what Bretton Woods Accord, I and II was and how that set the table for Trade Deal... then you'd know how they became what they are.

The U.S. has ALWAYS been trying to buy its way to have IMPERIALIST DOMINANCE AND INFLUENCES IN AND OVER OTHER COUNTRIES. That's why so many countries are pissed off at the U.S. because the long history of using money to manipulate other governments.

WAKE THE HECK UP...
LEARN,
AND
THEN LEARN HOW TO THINK FOR YOURSELF...
AND
LEARN HOW TO REMEBER BASED ON TRUTH AND FACT.

You continue to show what YOU DON'T KNOW.... Obama got the Nobel Prize, because he faced up the swindle America did with the R.E. Bond Market that cost Nations Trillions, and averted and Economic War and pledged to Rebuild International Diplomacy, which Bush has damaged by threating our Allied Nation to lead them to follow the lies that caused the Iraq War. ... Its likely you don't even understand what that means. Republican want to be "**** talkers" when the world had lost Trillion following the American White Male Swindlers. He did not only help fix America's Economy the work he did, also assured Foreign Nation, that America would put in Check and Balance to avoid ever doing that again.

I'm so thankful that my family read and research, and would not adopt some Right Wing Republican Led Cult Making Regime that knows nothing but "Attack Something"..."Trying To Dictate Over Others"... and think that being white means something more than a skin color. A color they evidently don't care much for other than ego, because they are always trying to "tan their skin" by risking skin cancer to look darker.

Some nation of white people are not hung up on Tanning, nor are they as brutal and aggressive and always want to attack something and talk **** about something like American white people. who have some delusion they are superior... when they should learn about the Barbaric Systems their Ancestry came from.

White People created the excessive debt that America has, and they squandered all the fortune made by generations before, and still don't want to face the fact that fortunes were made off the backs of Slaves and Immigrants from China, the back woods and hills of Europe and various other places...


American Indians did not kill Buffalo or anything else as some sport, or because of greed... they killed only what they needed for survival, and they used all part of the animal for various tools and utensils ... Too many white people believed that bull**** written in "White Nationalist Designed History Books' that told a lie that in every story that the white man was Hero..

Hell they even spread pictures around of a white Jesus with blond hair and blue eyes, and that IS NOT the way people look in the lands where Jesus was born and life, nor did his parents look like that either.

A Mass Segment of Self Centered Greedy, Overly Expectant Ignorance among SOME white people, expected Obama to wave a magic wand and make the mess created by white people go away, without them having to work and change how they live, how they think and what they do, instead they wanted him to wave a magic wand and fix it instantly... while the Republican Attacked Anything and Everything he did to fix the Economy. Now, dumb ass Trump want to claim credit for something he does not have the mind or character to fix anything. They still hate to see a black man to have been President, because it proved that the delusion of White Superiority is nothing but a Delusion.

Obama Told People, it would take everyone, and it would take sacrifice and work and change by everyone... SOME white people detested a black man, telling that what they had to do, to help fix the mess they made and the mess they supported bring made that damaged the World's Economy.

Now, they Think their Great White Belligerent Mobster White man, is going to fix it and give them what they have no invested themselves and made the sacrifices to earn. It's why they Love Trump, because he got his by "swindles", Corruption and malice... and that's all they want to do, to get what they want.

Black People, Poor White and Women and Immigrant DID NOT START THE WARS.. IT WAS STARTED BY WEALTHY WHITE MEN...
