Drug Testing For White House Press Corp

[dannyboys]

You just know Biden is going to leave some "floaters" for Trump.

At least Biden's female SS detail won't have to stand by his private swimming pool and watch him swim naked anymore.

 

[Anathema]

Having travelled in Iran and KSA let me advise you to figure out a way to be happy living in the good old USA. LOL!

Being "happy" is not part of life. Nor is being "content" in the amoral shithole that the US has become in the past 150 years and especially the last half century. Other than the requirement to be Muslim, what could be so much worse in those places than here?

 

[dannyboys]

ONLY their employer can request such as part of their employment contract.

otherwise, it's unconstitutional.

you should KNOW that...

on the other hand, we the people pay and hired the administration...we can request such, from them....if we wanted to....

I dont think that the Secret Service is limited by the Constitution in doing its job to protect the President and his staff by any means they see fit.

I hope Trump does impose a drug screen on these morons.

The whole proposal is just silly, juvenile, partisan shenanigans...and you know it!

How many of the White house press corp have been drugged out assassins the past 100 years?

That's NOT the point and you ought to know it!
People who use drugs, in this case the members of the press corp are susceptible to being blackmailed.
Who in their right mind wants some fucking LIB doper who may be being blackmailed sitting in front of the President at a news conference?
I mean REALLY???????

So fucking LEAVE asshole!
Seeking 'happiness' in life is a foundation of human existence.
We ALL 'move towards happiness' every fucking second of the day. We ate/shit/fuck/buy crap/watch TV/keep pets to 'be happy'.
There's a book titled: "Basic Human Psychology For Dummies 101' available.
How can someone fifteen years old, like yourself, know what life was like 150 years ago?

 

[Care4all]

Who would pay for it?

A 'drug test' kit costs less than a Big Mac.
The test takes two minutes.
I'm pretty sure doing the random drug tests isn't going to cripple the economy pal.
The Obama's vacationed in Hawaii eight times.
The last vacation cost the taxpayer $4.8 million bucks.
If President Trump spends that many taxpayer bucks on vacations YOU will be screaming your head off.

It's costing at least 10 times more than that by him and his wife not moving in to the Residence for the President elect in D.C. that ALL other president elects have stayed, and 10 times more than that to keep his wife and kid in the Eiffel Trump tower in New York for his first 6 months of his presidency...

 

[dannyboys]

I'd like to know what is the inherent danger that drug testing the press corps is going to address and solve?

People with professional careers, like those in the press corp who take illegal drugs are susceptible to being blackmailed.
Would you like it if President Trump sends out undercover spies to find out who in the press corps are taking illegal drugs. These undercover agents then threaten to expose, say a LIB reporter if they write anything negative about President Trump again?
Of course not!
THINK!!!!!!

And the instances that this has occurred within the last 100-200 years in our History is simply, ZERO... so the likelihood, does not outweigh the rights of we the people.

There has to be a good darn reason to break our constitutional right to privacy....(and life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness)!

I wish it was truly that simple. Unfortunately the United States WAS pretty much the last hope for humanity. Which means anywhere else is still a matter of how much garbage one can put up with. There is no truly decent place left. Except possibly Hell itself.

Seeking happiness is not the point of human life. Not for everyone in this time, nor should it be for anyone. Simple acceptance of Right and Wrong, combined with the realization that this life is only a test of the Soul is the point of life.

Amazing glycerin enough, even back in the 1850s and 1860s, they wrote down what things were. Even several decades ago when I was 15, and reading history books at an accelerated pace, these works were available to the common man.

 

[Darkwind]

That is unlawful search and seizure.

Nope, 'fraid not. They can refuse.

The press corp doesn't work for the white house. You don't require drug testing before entering a federal courthouse, or any other federal building. This would be illegal and a violation of privacy rights.

President Trump IS moving into the White house residence the day he is inugurated asshole!
If you believe having his wife and boy remain at their home until the end of the school year before they move into the White house residence will cost the taxpayer forty MILLION dollars you are fucking mentally unstable.
President Trump is keeping, and paying out of his own pocket, for his private security he has had for years to protect his family from fucking scum like you.

Stick your "test for the soul is the point of life" up your ass!
What is "right and wrong' is 100% based on subjectively.
As Lao Tzu said: "Since all experience is subjective value judgements become irrelevant".

I truly hope both you and Lao are buried with an aflifetime supply of suntan lotion.

The ideal that Values are subjective is the greatest lie ever told to humanity.

Typical LIB asshole attempt at deflecting.
The concept of what is 'Right" and what is "Wrong" has fuck all to do with "values' except as they relate to the individual.
Within various cultures across the globe what is considered "Right" is not necessarily "Right" in a different culture.
In Angola the 'Age Of Consent' is 12 years old.
Are YOU OK with 12 year old girls and boys working in brothels? Working in what we in the 'West' would call kiddie porn videos?
WELL?????
THINK!!!!!
Or do you believe the powers that be in Angola are not 'adhering' to YOUR "Values". But you claim "values" are universal. Grow up!
But maybe these 12 year old kids according to you are really only looking for their "Souls" right!
Fucking IDIOT!

First off, I'm about as opposite of a Liberal as you can get. I'm a Conservative Authoritarian bordering on Fascist.

Just because someone or some culture doesn't accept Universal Right and Wrong doesn't mean they don't exist. It just means their Soul is not properly instructed and will likely have to try again to move on after its next life.

No, because it would be voluntary.

Drug testing the press corps as a condition of being in the press room is a violation of their constitutional right to privacy. This really gets no more basic than that.

Then is requiring a drug test for any employment a violation of privacy?

Why do they even need drug tests? Waste of money. The only purpose is to intimidate the media. Why would anyone support that?

Au contraire, the Secret Service determines who has access to the White House, and under what conditions, not media organizations.

 

[Dragonlady]

Snicker.

Drug testing floated for White House press corps | Page Six

I love it.

How much will it cost? You get all excited about Dems wasting money but Trump, nah you revel in the waste. $1 million a day for Melanie's to stay in NYC, suck it Dems.

No wonder you voted for the Golden Showers President. You're as stupid as he is.
