The White House appears to be running like a well-oiled machine...

With the new communications director threatening to fire the com staff or kill them...whichever comes first. This is coming from the President's communications director.

Roast Pheasant

Follow these general instructions and you will get a lovely, moist bird. This technique also works with ruffed grouse, chickens and guinea hens. Serve with a nice white wine, some mashed potatoes and a vegetable of your choice. A good option is to cut up some carrots, potatoes, parsnips, celery root and turnips and roast them with the birds. I have a similar recipe for glazed roast pheasant, as well as one specifically for roast partridge, if you are looking for something a little different.

Instructions

Brine the bird. Make a brine by bringing the water, salt, bay leaves, juniper and sugar to a boil. Cover and let cool to room temperature. When it cools, submerge your pheasant in the brine and keep it in the fridge for 4 to 8 hours. The longer you brine, the saltier the pheasant will become. I brine pen-raised birds for 4 hours, old roosters for 8 hours.
Optional step: If you really want a crispy skin, take the birds out of the brine and set them uncovered in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours. This dries out the skin (but not the meat} and helps you get crispier skin.
When you are ready to cook, take the pheasant out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes and up to an hour. Heat your oven. Get it to 500°F if possible, but at least 400°. Give yourself at least 15 minutes of preheating, and up to a half hour. Oil the bird. You can do this with olive oil or you can smear butter all over it. Crack some black pepper over the bird.
Stuff with a piece of onion or apple and a few fresh herbs. Do not pack the cavity. Truss the bird if you want. I do this often because it helps the pheasant cook more evenly. (Here's , which is basically the same thing as a pheasant.)
Roast the pheasant for 15 minutes at your high temperature. Take the pheasant out and lower the temperature to 350°. Leave your oven door open to speed this process.
Optional step: Baste the bird with either butter or a glaze. When I do this, I like to use a boiled-down combination of butter and maple syrup.
Return the pheasant to the oven and roast for 30 to 45 minutes. You want the internal temperature of the thigh meat to be about 155°F to 165°F and for the bird’s juices to run pretty clear. A little pink in the juice — and in the bird — is what you want. The higher end of this cooking time will give you a well-done bird, which I try to avoid but many people prefer.
Remove the pheasant and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. This resting time is vital, as it lets the juices redistribute within the pheasant. It will also finish off the cooking process through carry-over heating.

In a move that will certainly unite the Republican majority, Trump fires his Chief of Staff & former head of the RNC, Reince Priebus.

wrong. 

[The Prowler]

wrong.

Priebus turned in his resignation Thursday, the same day that Trump's communications director said, “I fired one guy the other day. I have three to four people I’ll fire tomorrow. I’ll get to the person who leaked that to you. Reince Priebus—if you want to leak something—he’ll be asked to resign very shortly.”

So, yeah...he was fired.

This is interesting too (full circle)...

New Chief of Staff John Kelly will be the first current or former general to serve as White House chief of staff since Alexander M. Haig in the final stretch of President Richard M. Nixon’s administration.

For a guy who is all about the technicalities, and also full of shit, you must have missed the part where he "resigned"!


Funny how people like you do that!

Do you think Chizik, Tuberville, and Bowden resigned from Auburn or were they fired?

Like I said earlier, fired.

[Token]

I think they all resigned.

[WiregrassTiger]

I think they all resigned.

^^This. Attention: Let it be known that when someone turns in a resignation, that they have officially resigned. If they were about to be fired and they turn in a resignation, then guess what! They resigned!

You don't even need to have attended Auburn to know this. One would think any idiot would know.

But, apparently, they don't.

WRONG

Whether you're being told to resign or be fired, you're still being told to leave your position. Only a retarded person would think differently and apparently this board has quite a few of them.

[WiregrassTiger]

Someone who resigns IS in the resigned category. Regardless of what anyone says. GED holder or not.

[The Prowler]

Aaaand Scaramucci is fired.

[GH2001]

Aaaand Scaramucci is fired.

Real question here prowler.

And I'm going to be civil but....

Do you think this was a good move to fire him?

Because I do. I thought the guy was a total nutcase. One day in and I couldn't stand him.  I think the General Kelly hiring was a move totally about trying to clean up any dysfunction and riff raff. And from what I've read this was his move. Kelly has been one of the few bright spots to me. He doesn't fuck up. He doesn't say stupid shit. He just does a job. Doesn't suprise me with him - former marine general and all.

Yes, good move...a move that should've never had to be made in the first place.

I didn't care either way.

But Kelly is in charge now and needs to make the move he deems necessary to be successful. Its his ass on the line now.

SO I don't care if a new person gets fired each month. Business as usual is not what I voted for.

[The Prowler]

You'd rather have this?

Hey Trump, I'm watching this really bad reality TV show with low ratings called Survivor White House. I can't change the channel. Sad!
