Seth Meyers Riffs on Pence’s NFL Stunt, Trump vs. Bob Corker and Puerto Rico
Seth takes a closer look at how President Trump whips up racial tensions with transparent political stunts, while the humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico continues.

Windshield sun shades have instructions on them to not drive while the sun shade is in place.
Just in case anyone thought that Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein was one of the good guys for appointing Robert Mueller to investigate the Trump/Russia connections (due to Sessions’ recusal), this ought to dispel that right away:
A high-ranking Department of Justice official took aim at encryption of consumer products today, saying that encryption creates “law-free zones” and should be scaled back by Apple and other tech companies. Instead of encryption that can’t be broken, tech companies should implement “responsible encryption” that allows law enforcement to access data, he said.
“Warrant-proof encryption defeats the constitutional balance by elevating privacy above public safety,” Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said in a speech at the US Naval Academy today (transcript). “Encrypted communications that cannot be intercepted and locked devices that cannot be opened are law-free zones that permit criminals and terrorists to operate without detection by police and without accountability by judges and juries.”
He’s as fucking craven, brazen, and rotten as his bosses.

While many Senate Republicans were hoping to move on from the dispute, which began over the weekend, the White House appeared interested in underlining the consequences for any Republican who crosses Trump.
the consequences? that trump will act like a five year old and make it even less likely that he’ll accomplish his goals??

It’s going to be real interesting how the players respond to this. Anyhow, if people took the time to educate themselves about why Kaep knelt, they’d know he talked to Nate Boyer and that his teammate Eric Reid who knelt with him is the son and nephew of veterans. But wingnuts had to make this about their patriotism and respect for the military.

People tend to forget that in most sports leagues, the commissioner is there to represent the owners. Not the fans, not the players. Just the owners.
Hockey is great at proving this to you repeatedly. Booing the commissioner is a well-honored tradition.

You have a majority African-American league. A lot of those who have regardless of their socio-economic status experienced some sort of racism. Of course, they’re going to kneel and the pathetic thing is so many white fans don’t attempt to empathize. Oh, they love what these guys do on the field but off the field if they speak their mind on a controversial issue. It’s like what I read Bob Gibson say, that he’d be just another n-word to many white fans if he didn’t have the talent he did. And that was 50 years ago.

Unfortunately I suspect this is a lost cause in the court of public opinion. The mainstream media has been mostly useless on this since day one, and I no longer think simple incompetence is the explanation. It’s enemy action, IMO.
The most frustrating thing to me is no one wanted to listen to Kaepernick’s side of the story. They just wanted to smear him as some ungrateful athlete that was doing what he was doing in response to being benched. I’m all for athletes speaking out on issues even if I disagree with them. This is their country too. Frankly, the people who made Donald Trump into a political commodity and now gulp our President have no right to complain about any athlete speaking their mind.

Tom unlike Bernie did not let the adoration we gave him- richly deserved by the way get to his head.

I adore him and I hope the primary this spring wasn’t his swan song because he’s one of the good guys. Don’t get me wrong.

Weinstein’s a Dem donor. The end. Donald Jr doesn’t care that there’s a photo of his Dad and stepmom with him. Or that his Dad didn’t even really condemn what Weinstein did.

The wingnuts presently going off about Weinstein have no problem believing that rape on college campuses/military academies/etc is largely a myth and “real” rape victims don’t go to the police. And when a rape allegation is leveled against a fraternity/sports team/etc, the victim is deemed a “liar” unless she can prove with photos, video, and signed statements that she did not/could not consent to sex.

re: #65 HappyWarrior
The most frustrating thing to me is no one wanted to listen to Kaepernick’s side of the story. They just wanted to smear him as some ungrateful athlete that was doing what he was doing in response to being benched. I’m all for athletes speaking out on issues even if I disagree with them. This is their country too. Frankly, the people who made Donald Trump into a political commodity and now gulp our President have no right to complain about any athlete speaking their mind.
Being black sucks.

I’ve heard Morning Joke say a couple times now, when the cameras are off Kellyanne trashes Trump as much as anyone. But they all treat it as a job; a game they get paid for. It’s fucking evil.
She doesn’t have an honest bone in her body.
Of course that is a trait for a lot of pols. But right now the GOP is sinking it to a new low level. Crass cynicism and using their base as a throw rug over a muddy hole.
I believe it. She’s nothing but a paid shill. I mean fuck the Nazis like Spencer and Duke but at least they seem to believe their own crap.
re: #106 Targetpractice
The wingnuts presently going off about Weinstein have no problem believing that rape on college campuses/military academies/etc is largely a myth and “real” rape victims don’t go to the police. And when a rape allegation is leveled against a fraternity/sports team/etc, the victim is deemed a “liar” unless she can prove with photos, video, and signed statements that she did not/could not consent to sex.
Excellent point. It’s not about Weinstein’s sexual harassment. It’s about embarrassing Democrats - especially Secretary Clinton. This is politics at its basest.

Dan Patrick on his sports show asked what will Jerry Jones do if his two big stars, Dak Prescott and Zeke Elliot decide to take a knee? Will he bench them knowing the paying fans will not see a good game and chances of winning go way down?
I wonder what he does if the whole team calls his bluff for a game and they all take a knee? Is he going to fire all of them and get a new team?

Those ads link sanctuary cities to violent gangs of color. How mighty racist of Ed. Plus, he has attacked Northam about Confederate statues coming down. Can’t stand him.
This is my America. I work for an Iranian-American. I myself am an European-American of many backgrounds. I have dealt with clients who are either from all over the world themselves or have family members from there. My SiL is from Peru. My brother’s best friend and the godfather of my niece is African-American. This is what makes America great. We may have different paths to where we arrived but we’re all in the same place.
re: #87 Charles Johnson
To say nothing of the “conservative” sentiment that sexual harassment is a sham, isn’t important, is “natural” male behavior, or in one of various ways the fault of the accuser.
They care about this kind of behavior within the narrow windows of “it’s one of ours making the accusation, with enough social capital to make it stick,” “can’t avoid how taundry and skeevy it is because the details already leaked,” and “use as bludgeon against opponent.”
Never in good faith.

Yeah the Va Republican Party attacked Ralph for “disrespecting his ancestors”, Ralph comes from an old Virginia family. Ed is a sleazy lifetime lobbyist who just wants power. Ralph is a good guy, a Gulf War veteran and a caring physician. Wasn’t my first choice in the primary but I know he, Justin Fairfax, and Mark Herring will do us proud as our governor, lt governor, and attorney general.

re: #42 HappyWarrior
Goodell plays the exact role that he is extremely overpaid to do. The owners pay him to take on all negative backlash that the NFL creates. He is paid to be hated. They make it look like he wields all the power so when the public doesn’t like a decision he has to answer for it not any of them. He does nothing important without an approval from a majority of the owners. One may almost feel for the man, that is until you hear his salary of course.

They’ll ignore it, claim that the woman is a gold digger, attack her as a liar and a mischief maker, and then attack Clinton for not speaking out faster about Weinstein.

I just saw my first Adams ad watching Jeopardy tonight. He literally brought up his distant relationship to the Adams Presidents. Herring is awesome. I’ve followed him a bit since he won the district where I attended community college and showed the first cracks of Loudoun County becoming a bluer county. Saw a great ad by him tonight about how he’s helped sexual assault victims. He’s also a great voice for LGBT people and immigrants. Justin Fairfax is a great guy too. We have many great Democrats here in Virginia. Hopefully my district will flip over to a Dem next fall too.

Give the Twins a top-rotation ace and a few back-bullpen relievers, and their hitters are as dangerous as the Cubs. Could be a Central Showdown in the 2018 World Series if our front office can work the right deals.

It’s funny you suggest that because I was re-watching John Adams with my brother the other night and I jokingly said it was time for a Franklin Pierce mini-series, Pierce being Millard’s successor. Pierce was in many ways worse than Buchanan IMO. Because while Buchanan supported the Union during the war, Pierce despite being a New Hampshire man was a CSA apologist.

I hope the head office at the NFL realizes that if they insist that players stand for the anthem, there’s nothing to prevent them from, say locking arms and bowing their heads, or looking up while making fish-lips, or whatever. If the players are determined and united, the league cannot create rule after rule without looking foolish.

Goodell plays the exact role that he is extremely overpaid to do. The owners pay him to take on all negative backlash that the NFL creates. He is paid to be hated. They make it look like he wields all the power so when the public doesn’t like a decision he has to answer for it not any of them. He does nothing important without an approval from a majority of the owners. One may almost feel for the man, that is until you hear his salary of course.
I’m kinda morally flexible on occasion. Is Goodell’s job still open? (half sarc)

Lot of people are being led around by the nose with this Weinstein thing.
It’s so easy to manipulate people.
That’s how Trump got to where he is.
But that is also how many people with wealth and power get to where they are.
After a century of domestication by the advertising industry, I’m afraid that most Americans just want to be consumers. It’s all to easy to simply consume the “news” or whatever media available.
I don’t want to come off as one of those internet doomsayers. All it not lost.
But I think we have to accept that a lot of people just don’t think very deeply, or want to do any research.
Weinstein is just another old rich guy who had his way because he could. He ought not be looked upon as anything else. To try to make him out as anything else (e.g., as a Democratic Party operative) is just creating propaganda.
Here’s the thing: there are many, many “Harvey’s” all across America, in the boardrooms of corporations or just as the owner of the local store.
Yet how much investigative journalism is really done to find these people?
Why do we only hear about the ones that can be used to make political hay?
re: #62 Unshaken Defiance

They are protesting a specific commonly accepted abuse that has to stop.
My all time sports hero is Bill Russell, and the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Then:
The FBI maintained a file on Russell…The FBI described Russell in his file as “an arrogant Negro who won’t sign autographs for white children”
Now:
On September 26, 2017, Russell posted a photograph of himself to a previously unused Twitter account in which he was taking a knee in solidarity with NFL players kneeling during the US national anthem. Russell wore his Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the image was captioned with “Proud to take a knee, and to stand tall against social injustice.” In an interview with ESPN, Russell said he wanted the NFL players to know they weren’t alone.

What??? I thought you liked the Indians.
The Indians get no love at LGF. Last year everyone was all Cubs and said they liked the Indians. This year…it looks like a struggle to get by a game 5 with the fucking Yankees and people are jumping off.
Sigh. Oh well, Such are the plights of the small market team and the fickle fan.
Try being a Boston sports fan around here. Yikes.

“Totally OT, but I promised pics of my new handwoven curtains for the weaving “studio” (a.k.a. daughter’s old bedroom.”)
Wow, those are beautiful!
Thank you. Having handwoven fabric in the house makes me smile.
re: #291 calochortus
Totally OT, but I promised pics of my new handwoven curtains for the weaving “studio” (a.k.a. daughter’s old bedroom.) Since I kept forgetting to take pictures at night when the light from the window didn’t overwhelm everything else, I’m only now posting photos. Of course, with the artificial light, the color is a bit distorted, they’re white.
For those interested, they are an 8 shaft huck lace,. Cotton warp, linen weft.
There’s another pair on a smaller window, but they’re the same-and hard to take a photo because they’re behind a loom.[Embedded content]
You are talented AF. Beautiful.
I just went over to free republic for the first time in quite a while. I won’t bore and disgust you with the grisly details but there is no hope of any peaceful or rational resolution with these people. We are headed for civil war.
Carter Page will not cooperate with the Senate Intelligence Committee.
He plans on pleading the fifth amendment.

And then, in 2012, Hank Williams, Jr. came back with:
“We’ve got a Muslim for a President who hates cowboys, hates cowgirls, hates fishing, hates farming, loves gays, and we hate him,” Williams Jr. bellowed.
That was such a weird ass statement. Hank Sr is rolling in his grave over what a shithead his son is.

The 101st Chairborne Keyboard Warriors are all hat and no cattle. At least I hope that’s true.
re: #225 HappyWarrior
It’s eerie how much they resemble each other isn’t it
Boris and Boorish—like identical cousins.
re: #229 HappyWarrior
I was also wondering about underlings. Like the other day I saw a photo of Mnunchin and Gilbert Gottfried and I just thought yes!
But John Oliver would so delight in playing Mnuchin.

If only 1 in 1,000 is willing to act, that is still a hell of a lot of gun wielding crazy people. The crunch will come if someone like the Bundy gang manages to seize effective control of a sizable community, with lunatic officials and fascist cops offering at least tacit support.
re: #247 Stanley Sea
Some minor adjustments
Trump: who the fuck knows
Mike Pence: Tom Cruise, short grey hair
Jeff Sessions: Kate McKinnon
Hillary Clinton: Michelle Pfeiffer
Mitch McConnell: David Thewlis - yeah
Ivanka Trump: Jocylin Wildenstein
Melania Trump: Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer is far too pretty and natural to play squinty-eyed Melania. I’d cast Caitlyn Jenner instead.
Puerto Rico death toll at 45.
Gov says 2 recent deaths are believed to be from the bacterial infection Leptospirosis.https://t.co/Y0qhf0a4Nb— Amy Siskind (@Amy_Siskind) October 11, 2017
Leptospirosis: The infection route is through abrasions or cuts in the skin, or through the conjunctiva and mucous membranes. Humans may be infected by direct contact with urine or reproductive fluids from infected animals. Indirect infection can occur through contact with contaminated water or wet soil or consuming contaminated food or water.

Too old. And you get a beautiful woman to play down her looks. See Theron playing the composite Aileen Wuoronos in Monster.
I am at the first regular season game for the Vegas Golden Knights. They had the pre game festivities honoring the first responders (no civilians were brought out who saved lives). Then they had local celebrities say something on the jumbotron about thoughts and prayers. When they put up Jimmy Kimmel half the fans booed.
Fucking trump snowflakes.
So koombaya lasted abount 15 minutes.

I see it as following the story & metrics show hating Hillary is a ratings bonanza.
Why? Disturbed populace.
Weird thing, CNN is verboten to RWNJ. My Dad said so, OH CNN!!
I brought him down by saying, DAD it’s the in-between Fox & MSNBC - I’m a moderate!!! He had no reply. Onto golf conver.
re: #204 HappyWarrior
Actually though on a serious level. Who do you cast for a Trump movie?
Let’s play fantasy flick casting!
Trump Alec Baldwin
Bannon Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Miller Jim Parsons
Conway The Cryptkeeper/Jonah Goldberh (or Maria Bello)
Melania Sarah Paulson
Tillerson Vince Vaughan
Kelly Luke Wilson
Ivanka any blonde starlet
Jared PharmaBro
re: #325 jaunte
I don’t think Hoffman’s available.
She did say fantasy. And man it’s too bad that PSH passed away because I can really see him as Bannon.
re: #257 Stanley Sea
I also liked that he called out his “fans” that also support Trump.
re: #333 teleskiguy
The little fucker is
cuteA FURRY SPIDER - ICK - and you can’t convince me otherwise.
FIFY. 😂
You know, it’s neat Em did that. I was just talking with my brother who was a big Em fan back in the day and also someone who liked Kid Rock a little. He contrasted Em as an artist and person with Kid Rock. I know he’ll like this a lot. This is really good.
Sheila Zilinsky: Las Vegas Massacre Was A Pagan Illuminati ‘Blood Sacrifice Ritual’
Radical right-wing commentator and rabid conspiracy theorist Sheila Zilinsky posted a new podcast over the weekend in which she spent an hour explaining that the recent mass shooting in Las Vegas was really an Illuminati/deep state/occult ritual sacrifice.
Claiming that there is deep Illuminati/Free Mason/occult significance behind everything from the hotel floor from which the attack occurred, the number of guns found in the room, the location of the concert across from the pyramid-shaped Luxor hotel and countless other minor details, Zilinsky insisted that is it obvious that the massacre was a pagan “blood sacrifice ritual.”
“Folks, this whole thing in Las Vegas,” she said, “this killing field in front of this sphinx, this pyramid, this obelisk, this is no coincidence. The pyramid, the place of death; do you know that the Luxor has been there 23 years, the man had 23 guns and his room was 23? This is not a coincidence in these number sequences.”
“Las Vegas is a cesspool,” she continued. “It’s full of defilement, it’s full of debauchery, that’s why they call it Sin City. I don’t know if I’d brag about that. It might even be the world class pit of debauchery, really.
She got that last part right, which is probably why it is such a popular destination for fundy vacationers.
Speaking of the Illuminati, this was Taco Tuesday at our weekly meeting tonight. Yum.

I love Sweatshirt Belichick = he inspired the Gators BBall. He’s there for them.
re: #327 wheat-dogg
“I don’t think MAGA Polls is getting the response it wanted.”
All it would take to change those numbers would be for a Fox talking head to mention it, tell its viewers how/where they can access it, and instruct them to participate in it to MAGA. Sheeple will always be sheeple.

She forgot, the killer was also found with 23 pairs of chromosomes.

Hey, they have to blow off steam somewhere.
Me? I avoid that sort of place like the plague. If I want a vacation I’m going out somewhere with plants and bugs and dark skies. If I want to sin, I’ll do it in the comfort of my own home.
