Readout of President Donald J. Trump’s Call with President Vladimir Putin

Issued on: December 17, 2017

President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia called President Donald J. Trump today to thank him for the advanced warning the United States intelligence agencies provided to Russia concerning a major terror plot in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Based on the information the United States provided, Russian authorities were able to capture the terrorists just prior to an attack that could have killed large numbers of people. No Russian lives were lost and the terrorist attackers were caught and are now incarcerated. President Trump appreciated the call and told President Putin that he and the entire United States intelligence community were pleased to have helped save so many lives. President Trump stressed the importance of intelligence cooperation to defeat terrorists wherever they may be. Both leaders agreed that this serves as an example of the positive things that can occur when our countries work together. President Putin extended his thanks and congratulations to Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director Mike Pompeo and the CIA. President Trump then called Director Pompeo to congratulate him, his very talented people, and the entire intelligence community on a job well done!

Also, Putin phoned Trump to thank him for CIA intel that thwarted a terrorist attack in Russia. We’ll break down the GOP’s finalized tax cut bill and what it means for America.

Coach Red Pill Craps on Atheists and The Religious

Published on Dec 17, 2017 by Godless Cranium [ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCewUkuIHNuwuMNWMa96q9ZQ , https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCewUkuIHNuwuMNWMa96q9ZQ/videos ]

Coach Red Pill made a video called 'Atheists are Stupid', where he explains why he thinks vocal atheists are mean and he says he'd never strip someone of their beliefs because it gives them comfort.

I thought it was a very strange argument by a guy calling himself Coach Red Pill. Instead of offering the red pill of uncomfortable truth, he seems to argue for the opposite.

There's also a cameo at the end of the video by Nightmare Fuel.
