Just dropping in (then back out) to say that my wife and I arrived in Chicago yesterday.

We barely beat the blizzard (it started snowing when we left home), and we were at the leading edge of sleet in North Platte. We couldn’t go home now if we tried (still coming down hard in central Nebraska).

My sister and cousin are here, and we’re working on helping my mother pack her things.

She is still insisting she’s going to stay in Chicago on her limited income, but so far no dice on finding an apartment within her means.

I feel for your mom. It’s hard for an older person to move out of their comfort zone to a new place. My kids want us to move to Florida and I’m like NFW.

He’s a “fighter” in the sense that abusive husbands are “fighters.” He never punches up, he never fights with those who are of equal or greater stature than he. He always punches down, he always goes after those who have less clout than he does, and he always uses his perceived “superiority” to force them to give in to his terms. So when you hear him described as a “fighter,” what you’re really hearing is the person defending him say that he’s an asshole…but he’s an asshole towards the people they hate, so they’re totally cool with it.

Trump is still exposed from the Mueller Report. While Volume 1 (Russian Interference) clearly showed ethical and moral failings on a grand scale, and running up and dancing all over the line of criminality in some instances, it would have been an uphill battle to draft Articles much less push through the Senate. Levels of proof, proving intent, and lack of precedent worked against impeachment for Trump.

Volume 2 (Obstruction) is another story. I’m sure the rationale for not running up Articles in V2 will come out, or maybe they were taking their time until Insance in the Ukraine came up.

We now know that Trump was told it was illegal to withhold aid to Ukraine. Like the career Criminal he is, he didn’t give a shit. Advice to Pompeo, Mulvaney, Bolton: Save your asses-Testify. Per Rick Wilson: “Everything Trump touches Dies”

24.8K
4:12 PM - Dec 29, 2019

Pompeo and Bolton objected to the withholding of aid — There is no evidence that Mulvaney cared; why think that he would ever do what is right? Bolton might — he has serious policy disagreements with Trump and his views are antithetical to those of the President. Who knows what motivates Pompeo? How could he continue in thrall to this President who represents the opposite of the honor that was supposedly instilled in him at West Point? Pompeo appears to be another victim of ETTD.

I’m guessing that Pompeo’s motivation is he wants Trump’s endorsement for his KS senate run.

Mueller Report:

Fourth, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state. Based on the facts and the applicable legal standards, however, we are unable to reach that judgment. The evidence we obtained about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.

There are moments like these where I remember why I liked Biden during the Obama years and want to see that guy back again. It makes me feel that his nomination, while not my first choice, would be something I could see myself getting behind.

re: #26 BigPapa

It was a road map of sorts that if carefully read and followed one could say that DT did do wrong. And add all of that information in Mueller’s report and what has been released with the whistleblower’s report. Yes there is more than enough to get him.

29
Targetpractice  Dec 29, 2019 • 6:38:32pm

By the way, imagine that Biden moment happening at a Trump rally. The simple reality is you can’t because he’d never let a plebe talk to him in such a fashion. He’d almost immediately demand security remove the guy, even encouraging the audience to attack him, before opining about how such men would have been savagely beaten “back in the day…”

re: #28 PhillyPretzel

Yup. There’s 10 investigative avenues that Mueller looked at. I’m going through them for a sort of ‘rating’ as to how proveable each one is. I’m guessing they could have got solid 2-3 Articles on Trump for Obstruction. But I have more homework to do.

re: #20 jaunte

It’s been my opinion since the revelations of last week about the timing of the initial order to impose the hold that it was totally an impulsive act on Trump’s part, which is par for the course when it comes to such acts. Rudy was not finding Zelensky and his inner circle receptive to demands for investigations, certainly not when the “reward” was a simple White House meeting. So when Zelensky thanked Trump for the defense funds, he saw his opening in withholding those funds and sprung into action.

What he never figured upon was Ukraine holding out for so long, or for anybody not in his inner circle to spill the beans where Congress could hear before he got what wanted.

Yeah, maybe. But Vol 1 showed the level of fuckery pulled by the Russians and Team Trump. There’s some serious issues that need to be addressed with the FEC and foreign interference. I got the feeling that Mueller was warning us about Russia and future elections.

re: #25 sagehen

I’m guessing that Pompeo’s motivation is he wants Trump’s endorsement for his KS senate run.

But wouldn’t his West Point education have taught him that his first loyalty is to the nation? His desire for advancement clearly outweighs any scruples he may have. He is demonstrating that either he is a coward or, like Trump, cares only about his career and not about our country. Of course, it’s also possible, like others before him, that he believes that by cowering before this wannabe dictator he is protecting the nation from even worse.

If these members or former members of the Trump administration ever publicly came out and revealed what they know of Trump’s obeisance to Putin — they could succeed in actually bringing this traitor down but they may all be too compromised themselves to take this stand.

I’ve also been texted recently by a real human with the Bernie campaign.

She didn’t have anything to counter, but did thank me for the opinion. Hope someone is collecting and analyzing the responses.

Hillary was vilified for years — and then the Benghazi hearings were designed specifically to bring down her approval ratings. It also didn’t help that too many of the Bernie my-way-or-the-highway fanatics refused to support her.

I will NEVER forgive Comey and the crooks at the New York FBI office who conspired to do the last minute sabotage on Hillary.

“Fuck Cancer” is hardly a revolutionary sentiment but just after hearing this about Rep. Lewis, I got a message from my ex-long-term-GF that her uncle died yesterday evening from cancer(s) I didn’t even know he had. I don’t have a lot of contact with her or her family so the news was out of the blue.

After some digging I found his blog where he’s been writing about battling some really ugly business for almost two years now. His last post was on December 13 about a new treatment plan. Goddammit… He wasn’t elderly or unhealthy in habits. He was a generally technical/geeky guy, worked as a product development manager at a Japanese communications tech company, lifelong Star Trek fan, and just a general favorite of everyone who knew him (myself included).

I don’t think it’s any more common than it ever was; but about 10 years ago somebody invented a simple blood test for it before there’s any symptoms (and while there’s still time to treat it), so it’s become part of routine screening for patients over a certain age.

coming up on 1/9/20, 18 years to the day Dad passed from a rare cancer that affected his platelets. Dr said that they had to consult medical databases to diagnose the cancer. According to Dr it could have been triggered either by asbestos or exposure to low level radiation from the Shippingport nuclear plant where Dad often did Boilermaker work.

Remember the last time I talked to Dad. He absolutely HATED Dumbya and he was continually getting in fights with the rest of the family who gladly slobbered over that ass. If he was here seeing what Shithead is doing he’d be marching on DC…

re: #77 Joe Bacon 🌹

coming up on 1/9/20, 18 years to the day Dad passed from a rare cancer that affected his platelets. Dr said that they had to consult medical databases to diagnose the cancer. According to Dr it could have been triggered either by asbestos or exposure to low level radiation from the Shippingport nuclear plant where Dad often did Boilermaker work.

Remember the last time I talked to Dad. He absolutely HATED Dumbya and he was continually getting in fights with the rest of the family who gladly slobbered over that ass. If he was here seeing what Shithead is doing he’d be marching on DC…

The only kind of cancer that comes from asbestos makes for a very distinct x-ray; it’s a thing that can’t be caused by any other factor, and can’t be mistaken for any other disease.

As to pancreatic cancer, my husband of fifty years passed away unexpectedly in early November. He went into the hospital on Thursday, was diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer with other organs, including liver, involved. Took him home on Saturday morning, and he died early Tuesday - five days after diagnosis. We had just returned from vacationing in Europe. He had been seen by three different oncologists in the six weeks before our trip, and no one noted anything out of the ordinary (for him) or counseled against the trip. He was being followed as he had been treated two years ago for a throat cancer, but had appeared to be clear. So, we don’t know if it was a met of that cancer or a new one. It was a mercy he went quickly, as he would not have accepted any treatment.

One of the lines that was floated in the last few hearings in the House by Repubs was that Trump was using the hold to “test” Zelensky and his commitment to rooting out corruption. The obvious idea was that this “defense” explained the multiple meetings that Trump had with his inner circle about the hold as them pleading Zelensky’s case, that they were working to assure him that the guy was “on the level.”

Between the emails/texts in the hearings and those obtained in recent weeks, it’s obvious that these meetings were not about convincing Trump about Zelensky…they were about getting him to release the hold because they realized it was illegal, realized that the conspiracy was unraveling, and wanted to get out of the whole mess before Congress caught wind.

Greets and saluts from the soggy NYC metro area. I’ll take snow over rain, but if this rain was actually snow, we’d be talking about 1-2 feet of it. So, thanks but no thanks.

And at least the temps are warm enough to avoid freezing rain. Sullivan and Ulster Counties were looking at perhaps a half inch of ice from this storm, which means turning those counties into no-go zones.

So, the investigation into the Monsey stabbings at a Chabad House continues, and the alleged assailant apparently has a history of mental illness, and the family lawyer has called for him to get a pysch eval.

Of course, Rudy’s using the spate of attacks as a claim that DeBlasio has failed with policing. Ummm… NYC has seen a spike of hate crimes, which can be tied to Trumpists and Trump’s stochastic terrorism. Nationally, hate crimes have spiked under Trump, because he’s normalized the violence against minorities, and Trump has equated goddamned Nazis and KKK with the people protesting them.

That’s on Trump and the GOP. Even Rudy’s engaged in this bigotry by claiming he’s more of a Jew than a Jew who survived the Holocaust. Rockland County GOPers (the county where Monsey is located) have repeatedly posted anti-Semitic slurs and sought to limit Jewish community growth.

The GOP are completely debased.

Anti-Semitism isn’t limited to the GOP, but the loudest proponents that go unanswered from within the party are coming from the right. Trump has repeatedly quote-tweeted anti-Semitic and bigoted accounts dating back to 2016. Junior too. It’s who they are and what they believe. They are a white nationalist party and the GOP finds this acceptable since that’s who they think should be running things - hence the voter suppression efforts directed at persons of color.

Similar to that guy who sent the bombs in late October 2018. Not a member either, but certainly attracted to toxic ideologies that pretend to explain why their lives are so disordered. And these days with the internet and some cable stations, they can immerse themselves in them in a way that wasn’t possible before to the point that what little connection they have to reality is gone. Add the lessened access to mental health services, and they are walking time bombs.

It doesn’t mean that they didn’t try to join something-but that even those groups were uneasy about making them formal members. Even with lessened memberships, these guys are too sick for them.

This is what will burn wingnuts the most:

So yeah, Obama has been top spot 12 years running and Trump only manages to make the top of the list in the third year of his presidency.

They polled a bunch of people. 18% named Trump, 18% named Obama and the other 64% it seems named someone else or no one at all.

And I’m almost convinced that some groups manipulate the paranoid and mentally disturbed even if they aren’t members so that they can do the things they dare not do themselves. Someone who needs a friend or a guide falls in with similarly minded people, and they feed all of the toxic stuff to them.

And I think Trump has given them permission to fly their crazy flag as well.

Let’s just ignore the crime spree by the current WH occupant whose grandfather came here under false pretenses.

Let’s ignore that Trump has sought massive cuts to mental health funding.
Let’s ignore Trump has sought to eliminate Obamacare and its mental health coverage expansions.

Let’s ignore all that.

Let’s focus on the fact that Trump is a stochastic terrorist whose words and deeds encourage violence against minorities, including Jews.

Let’s focus on the fact that Trump’s policies and actions enable bigots and those who have mental illness to act on their violent impulses.

Let’s focus on the fact that the GOP is fine with all this.

John Lewis Is Still Alive
The Civil Rights icon has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but he needs no epitaph. Let’s not make a marble idol to our own consciences out of him. Charlie Pierce

What is it going to be like, I wonder, when the last of them goes, those American heroes who dared call Jefferson’s great bluff in the pulpits and the courts and in the streets? They have their heirs, no question about it. Bree Newsome. The Reverend William Barber, official preacher of this shebeen. The footsloggers of Black Lives Matter. They have their political successes: President Barack Obama, Senators Cory Booker and Kamala Harris. But having watched over the years as Dr. King’s memory has been sanded down and smoothed out and used as a balm on white America’s guilty conscience—Dr. King wasn’t “divisive”? Then why’d someone shoot him in his head?—I wonder whether or not the entire Civil Rights Movement, and the very organized backlash against it, all that blood and death and massive resistance, will be neutered in history the same way. But John Lewis is still alive.

… dammit, and that should be enough for now.

Coming this May, to a convention center of some kind in Orlando, Florida, the most repulsive and least self-aware men on the entire internet will come together to finally teach women a lesson.

A lesson in how to be the women of their dreams.

Yes! For the low, low price of $1,999 a ticket ($999 a ticket and a plus one if you act now!), you can learn all of the secrets to reeling in the kind of man who sits on YouTube all day whining about how women aren’t all barefoot and pregnant anymore. Men like Stefan Molyneux, Mike Cernovich, and organizer Anthony Dream Johnson (who claims he is the 1st President of the Manosphere), along with a bunch of other creepy dudes you’ve never even heard of and definitely have no interest in speaking to for more than five minutes, never mind marrying.

The conference is called The 22 Convention (We do not know why!) and features the tagline “Make Women Great Again.” According to the website, it is “destined to be the mansplaining event of the century.”

I may have a clue as to why it’s called the 22 Convention. On a site detailing terminology within Incel communities, I found this:

“ER — The short form for Elliot Rodgers, who within the darker parts of the incel community is viewed as a martyr for the incel cause. In 2014, Rodger killed six people and injured 14 others near the University of California, Santa Barbara. In a video posted to YouTube before embarking on a shooting spree, Rodger explained that he intended to punish women for never having sex with him, calling himself “the perfect gentleman,” and lamenting the fact that he was still a virgin at 22. Referred to sometimes as Saint Elliot, The Cut writes: “His likeness has inspired countless memes that straddle the line between lulzy irony and utter sincerity (one widely circulated picture depicts him as a literal saint, his face Photoshopped into a religious painting).”

In Trump’s GOP, it’s every man/woman for themselves. Color me shocked.

Rep. Mark Meadows’ shock retirement — revealed just 30 hours before the filing deadline in North Carolina — has roiled some Republicans in the state who suspect he timed his announcement to benefit a friend of his wife.
…
Later that day came a campaign launch by Lynda Bennett, a local GOP activist and real estate agent who is friendly with Debbie Meadows, the congressman’s wife, according to sources who know both women.
…
Online records revealed her campaign website domain had been registered on Oct. 28 by a Scott Meadows, who appears to be the brother of the congressman. The campaign’s Facebook page was created on Dec. 18, a day before the retirement. And shortly after midnight on Dec. 19 — about five hours before Meadows announced — Bennett posted photos of herself with the congressman and his wife at local GOP events in the state. Source

CHARLESTON, W. Va. (WSAZ) - UPDATE 12/30/19 @ 11 a.m.
Gov. Jim Justice is approving firings after reviewing the report on the Division of Corrections (DCR) academy Class 18.

Justice released on Monday that he is approving the recommendations submitted by Department of Military Affairs and Public Safety (DMAPS) Secretary Jeff Sandy to fire all cadets involved in the picture.

Justice also approved the firing of one additional staff member. According to the recommendations, that member didn’t report the content of the class photograph. According to the release, this is the third instructor fired from the incident.

Four additional academy instructors who knew about the picture were also suspended without pay.

The photo was taken in November and handed out to attendees at the division’s Nov. 27 graduation ceremony.

Fair point. Would he consider such an unlikely scenario? Sure, just as I consider all the time what I’d do if I won the Redneck Retirement Fund (aka: Mega Millions Jackpot). Besides the fact that I rarely play, the odds that I’d win are so astronomically opposed that I’d save time just burning my money instead. But would I consider donating the entire thing to charity if I should win? Sure, I suppose I’d consider it.

- democratic opponents attack him for supporting too many Republican ideas
- from the left, criticism that he’s too much a part of “the system”
- From the right, not being sufficiently Christian and for being out of touch
- Also from the right, he was flayed for being too liberal by GOP members Senate.
- a very sizable number of high-profile verbal gaffes on YouTube
- accused of plagiarism
- nearly 40% of voters said they don’t think he’s qualified to be president. More than a third of Democratic respondents said he’s their least-favorite Democratic candidate.
- there are also the questions about his age, and whether he’s outside the window where one can be an effective president.

Make no mistake. Edward Gallagher is going to be a star of the upcoming Republican presidential campaign. The president* is going to use him as a representative of The Troops, and as an antidote to his own contempt for military personnel who are as revolted by him as any decent human being would be. Gallagher is going to be the anti-Khizr Khan. He is going to appear at presidential* events. I make him even money to speak at the 2020 Republican National Convention. Edward Gallagher is going to be the symbol of the U.S. military and there’s nobody in the GOP who can stop this from happening.

It’s ok to appeal to the ideal that we’re one people as long as we don’t let it allow Republicans to stop necessary legislation. One of the things Democrats are going to have to do a good job of is selling that legislation is for everyone.

Christians aren’t under siege. They’re the dominant religious group in much of the world. They dunk on every other religious group within their sphere of influence, and these nutters think that anyone critical of them means that they’re the ones being discriminated against all while Christian fundamentalists are busy trying to impose their views and theology on everyone else.

I’m going to start by saying it really shouldn’t be taken in any way to diminish the heinousness of the Monsey Hanukkah machete attack, but it’s starting to look like the perp is just your common or garden-variety nutcase: (via TPM):

Reverend Wendy Paige, who the Post said was Thomas’ pastor of 10 years, said Thomas “is not a terrorist, he is a man who has mental illness in America and the systems that be have not served him well.” Reports have identified previous arrests on Thomas’ record including for menacing and punching a police horse.

No record on whether or not the horse pressed charges…

I know it’s a “fraught issue” as they say, but while the Monsey attack targeted Jews, it’s hard to see this (at least from available evidence so far) as the case of “antisemitic terrorism” so many public figures seem to want to make it into*. It’s another issue entirely why Grafton Thomas - mental history notwithstanding - seems to have just suddenly snapped and driven all the way to Monsey to hack up Hasidim apparently out of the blue. And unfortunately, I’m thinking we’re probably unlikely to find out.

*Though TBH, it’s an issue better overstated than understated, IMO: you really don’t want to encourage copycats, or give out the impression these incidents aren’t taken seriously.

The bit that sticks out to me the most wasn’t that he was shooting civilians and casually remarking to other snipers that he’d hit the ones they “missed” with their warning shots, but that he expressed a willingness to put them in harm’s war in order to increase his chances of winning a silver star. Put that together with his response to the story, which is that they’re all a bunch of weaklings who ratted him out because they were afraid to fight, and you’ve got another William Calley.

The fact that he’s a psychopath is bad enough. Trump personally going to bat for him is a demonstration that he wants our military to take after Gallagher’s example. he wants our Armed Forces to be filled with these kinds of war criminals. That’s the message he’s sending. And it’s no surprise that we seem to be having an even more significant white supremacist influx in said Armed Forces as of late.

In short, someone from the Press Corp asked Biden if he would consider a GOP running mate, in theory… Biden essentially said… sure, find me a reasonable Republican to run with and asked for a suggestion as to who that would be….

needless to say, no names were forthcoming..

so… they got maximum outrage for taking what Biden said… out of context without offering Biden’s observation that currently there aren’t any reasonable Republican legislators currently in existence who are stepping up and making themselves known.

I kind of hated the book. Jo ends up marrying this guy who shames her for her writing. Even 12 year old me was like “fuck that guy.”

Can’t speak for any other women …

Another woman here…

I didn’t read “Little Women” as a girl because I just wasn’t into it. My favorite fiction book as a kid was “Harriet the Spy,” which is pretty far from “Little Women.” I’d note that “Harriet the Spy” gave me a weird look on upper-class New York City in the 1960s. I’m still amazed it got published because it is so incredibly subversive. What other book has an adult character tell the central kid character “sometimes you have to lie”?

But for comfort books, books I’d check out of the library when I just wanted to do some comfort reading, those were the astronomy books. Every single time. And yes, I know I’m weird.

I did read “Little Women” as an adult but it wasn’t like something I just loved. Just like I saw Titanic one time and took away from it how insane the class differences were. There’s a scene where Rose’s mother is helping her dress, lacing her into a corset and basically telling her she has to marry the creepy guy because their finances require it. Mom is so emphatic she laces Rose VERY tight. I’m pretty sure that’s not what James Cameron wanted me to get out of it, but I did.

tRump followers remind me of the Flagg followers in The Stand.

I tend towards Greg Stillson.

Same glorification of ignorance, same fervent appeal to the worst in us, same catastrophic legacy.

Unfortunately, we seem to be out of quirky, vocally dissonant psychics to save us.
