Wednesday Overnight Open Thread (7/19/17) Some Kind of An Edition
And I’ve learned from my experience that desire is 80% of achievement. That if you really, really want something, if you really, really, really want to do something, that the vast majority of achieving it is wanting it. I mean, really wanting it. Not a preference, and not, “Gee, I hope this.” I mean really wanting it. It is the desire that makes you do what you have to do to achieve. Rush Limbaugh
Limbaugh commenting on the Quisling Senate GOP and their "effort" to repeal Obamacare.
Quote II
We all know that Social Security is one of this country's greatest success stories in the 20th century. Mitch McConnell
Brilliant!!!!
Quote III
Without question, the Red Ryder BB gun is the most important gun in the history of American weaponry. Ted Nugent
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told reporters that despite the Republicans’ inability to get enough votes to repeal and replace Obamacare, GOP lawmakers have “given it their best shot.” “This has been a very, very challenging experience for all of us,” McConnell said when asked on Tuesday if he believes his leadership has been damaged by the healthcare debate.
The Women's March headed to Saudi Arabia. Nah, just kidding. Islam > Women, crickets.
A woman in Saudi Arabia has been arrested after a short Snapchat video showed her wearing a skirt and crop top in the desert heat. Her outfit would be unremarkable in the U.S., but it violated Saudi Arabia's strict, conservative dress code for women. The footage went viral online over the weekend. On Tuesday, Saudi Arabian state TV announced via Twitter that the woman had been taken into custody by police and that the case had been referred to the general prosecutor.
Guilty until proven innocent. At least when it comes to forfeiture laws. A.G. Jeff Sessions issues new directives for civil forfeitures.
U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said the Justice Department will issue new directives to increase the federal govenment's use of civil asset forfeiture, a controversial practice that allows law enforcement to seize property from suspected criminals without charging them with a crime. Speaking at a National District Attorneys Association conference in Minneapolis Monday, Sessions said state and local law enforcement could expect changes from U.S. Attorneys in several areas: increased prosecution of gun crimes, immigration offenses, gang activity, and prescription drug abuse, as well as increased asset seizure by the federal government.
Sessions is just plain wrong on this. What was that movement we felt? Oh yeah, just the Founding Fathers rolling in their graves.
San Francisco's KQED attacked by ransomware.
For the last month, San Francisco’s KQED has been recovering from a massive ransomware attack, the station revealed today to The San Francisco Chronicle. The infection began on June 15, but more than a month later, many crucial systems remain offline at the National Public Radio member-station. “It’s like we’ve been bombed back to 20 years ago, technology-wise,” one senior editor told the Chronicle.Guess they will need to have a couple more beg-a-thons.
Freedom, the ability to move about as one pleases. What happens when you can't? Do you sue on the basis that human rights have been violated?
A disability rights group in New York City has filed a class-action lawsuit against Uber, alleging the company doesn’t do enough to provide for riders who need wheelchair-accessible vehicles. The suit, filed today, says that the few wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAVs) available in New York aren’t enough to accommodate the large disabled population — there are less than 100 to serve all five boroughs. It was brought by Disability Rights Advocates on behalf of a number of local advocacy groups.
The FBI yesterday released a public service announcement (PSA) alerting parents to the dangers potentially imposed by smart toys. The document warns that connected toys with microphones, GPS tracking, Wi-Fi, and/or bluetooth connectivity could be giving criminals access to private information about children and their families. This could lead to identity theft or worse:

Nitwit? The ONT begs to differ. They aren't nitwits. They are felons.
Tens of thousands of minks on a central Minnesota farm were set free from their cages, unleashing the prized fur-bearing creatures into the dark of night, authorities said. “These nitwits think they are doing something good,” Stearns County Sheriff Don Gudmundson said Monday, about a half-day after people he’s convinced are among militant animal rights advocates sneaked onto Lang Farms near Eden Valley sometime between 10:30 p.m. Sunday and 5:30 a.m. Monday. The Sheriff’s Office put the value of the minks at more than $750,000.
California continues to lead on "global warming". Cap & Trade.
California lawmakers voted to extend the state’s cap-and-trade program another 10 years on Monday night. The bill includes language that would gradually tighten restrictions on businesses, reducing the amount of greenhouse gases they’re allowed to put in the atmosphere by 40 percent by 2030. California gov to work with China on clean energy tech, defying US reversal
California’s cap-and-trade market puts a limit on the amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that companies are allowed to put into the atmosphere, and it allows companies to buy and sell GHG credits. That means that a company whose business requires additional GHG emissions over the limit would have to buy credits in an auction. The more polluting that companies are collectively, the more credits are in demand, and the more costly it is to do business individually as a polluter.
Guess what happens when food stamp recipients have to work? Ding, ding, ding, you're a winner.
We've heard about the exploding costs of higher education. US students may have nothing to pay.
Some lucky Americans are finding that their huge piles of student debt may not actually exist. All thanks to a fluke in paperwork, rather than politics or beneficence.
The National Collegiate Student Loan Trusts are a collection of trusts that together comprise one of the US’s biggest owners of private student loans, possessing around 800,000 different loans totaling $12 billion. They aggressively hound student borrowers who fall behind on their bills and have brought tens of thousands of lawsuits against defaulters in the past five years
How to survive
Guns & Progressives. How to experience lunacy? Discuss guns with the left.
A useful way to experience the lunacy of Progressives is to discuss guns with your local lefty. Most people understand that gun control is worthless as a tool to control crime or even reduce gun accidents. The people using guns in crime are by definition not the sort to obey gun laws. Similarly, the people inclined to shoot themselves or friends while playing William Tell will find some way to off themselves, no matter what you do. The only result of gun control is to harass honest citizens exercising their rights as citizens.
So, Truth or Fake News?
It was the turn of the 20th century when Frank Zamboni was born to recent immigrant parents in a small town south of Salt Lake City, Utah. When Zamboni was a baby, his family bought a farm not too far way in Idaho. That’s where he got his first experiences in mechanical engineering. Frank Zamboni, his brothers and father spent long hours tinkering and fixing broken farm equipment. Frank also worked a local garage, repairing old pickup trucks. “While my father never got past the ninth grade in formal schooling, he always had an inquisitive mind in solving problems,” Frank’s son Richard Zamboni later told Popular Mechanics, “Whether it was electrical, mechanical, or business-related, he had the unique ability to get to the heart of issues.

That Rush Limbaugh quote is almost perfect. I would just raise the percentage to 90%.
As much as I love that quote or opinion , it's also my curse because I've never had an obsession. Money I can take or leave. I like to do everything until I get pretty decent at it and then I get bored and move to something else.
A jack of all trades and a master of none. ( though pretty close on a number of things)
It makes for a comfortable all around life but I think I would trade it to be so good at a single something that I could make my living from it and leave my mark long after I'm gone.

In the lost paperwork story on student loans, I can imagine students continuing to make payments, and I wonder where the money goes.
The banks are not going to tell the student not to pay the loan. The bank doing the payment collections will continue to accept payments, but where does that payment money go with the ownership of the loan is in question?

My wife is completely wheelchair bound. We have a 2006 Ford Fusion. It's handicap accessible for us. I can transfer her to and from the passenger seat and her wheelchair. The trunk easily holds the wheelchair.
Having a big enough trunk and a passenger seat that is no higher off the ground than a wheelchair are the only things needed to make a car wheelchair accessible as far as I'm concerned. But I'm sure the activists and the government have other much more expensive requirements in mind.

I never really believed they'd shit all over my favorite sci-fi show, but I guess they've gone and done it.
I guess the next step is to make it so that the Daleks became the way they did because they were influenced by white western Christianity. And then the female Doctor will say "If only they had followed the religion of peace, as I do, the universe would be a paradise. That is why I have always waged Jihad against the cybermen and ice warriors."
But I care much less than I thought I would. As the Quiet Man said, Tom Baker was the last real Doctor anyway.

52 My wife is completely wheelchair bound. We have a 2006 Ford Fusion. It's handicap accessible for us. I can transfer her to and from the passenger seat and her wheelchair. The trunk easily holds the wheelchair.
Having a big enough trunk and a passenger seat that is no higher off the ground than a wheelchair are the only things needed to make a car wheelchair accessible as far as I'm concerned. But I'm sure the activists and the government have other much more expensive requirements in mind.

Sorry to hear about your wife.
My mother-in-law is confined to a wheel chair. We get her around with a Buick Lucerne, just fine.

I would say "very clever", trying to turn conservatives here against the only Republican holding statewide office in PA, except that Toomey isn't up for re-election until 2022. Or maybe you are playing a real long game...

Hey, jewells, just wanted to say thanks for the cute key ring! I love anything with elephants, owls or turtles! I wore the "men's bracelet" (I tied the ends together and then clasped it) to work last Friday and got compliments on such an "original piece." It worked great with heels, jeans, and an embroidered blouse with brown, cream and green stripes. I told people about your page and I hope it results in some new business for you.
I loved all the pieces...all very pretty. The skull and crossbones was really too big, so I wrapped it around my purse strap...a little sigil of sanity in my deep blue world.
Thanks again!

Speaking of erect, my father pulled one years ago that people still laugh at. He was having to chair some meeting, a large meeting of some committee he was one, and there was some issue with some fellow and some farm loans.
He had used the loans to put up some grain bins, but didn't do it properly and they collapsed later on. It was something about who was liable for what that this committee had to decide.
Anyway, he phrased it as "this man's incompetent erection..." That brought the house down.

A disability rights group in New York City has filed a class-action lawsuit against Uber, alleging the company doesn't do enough to provide for riders who need wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
I cannot believe this level of spiteful assholishness. If they drove Uber out of business, or at least out of NYC, guess what? They certainly wouldn't be able to provide rides for handicapped people, or anyone else, which I guess is their point. I consider their objection to be as "invalid" as they are.

A disability rights group in New York City has filed a class-action lawsuit against Uber, alleging the company doesn't do enough to provide for riders who need wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
I cannot believe this level of spiteful assholishness. If they drove Uber out of business, or at least out of NYC, guess what? They certainly wouldn't be able to provide rides for handicapped people, or anyone else, which I guess is their point. I consider their objection to be as "invalid" as they are.

RE: so called smart technology.
First, a confession. I'm a late adopter to everything. And if you said to me "you have to go back to a flip phone" I could live with that.
I used to have a female friend that loved-- and has-- every new gadget. When smart technology for everything started getting popular, I told her I thought there was potential for misuse in regards to privacy issues, among other things. She looked at me as if I had grown a second head.
A while later, there was talk of X-Box Kinect being able to listen into your conversations. Her husband has one. I brought it up, and she simply shrugged and said "I don't do anything wrong" and was completely unconcerned.
Either I'm really over imaginative or she completely lacks imagination.

Hey McConnell, that great government "success story" Social Security is just five years away from paying out more in benefits than it takes in. Then it will be a quick downhill slide into insolvency as our aging population puts more and more strain on the system. And no, importing millions more below-minimum wage landscapers and hotel maids and chicken-pluckers from Mexico won't fix it, any more than importing millions of welfare-dependent middle-east muzzies will solve it.
But in other, more encouraging news, Hillary Clinton is still not president, despite the fact that she had the entire media/Hollywood complex on her side, and despite the fact that Obama had illegally drafted U.S. postal employees as Hillary campaign workers, and Obama henchman Samantha Power was illegally abusing her government position to unmask Trump operatives so Obama (and Hillary) could illegally spy on Trump's campaign. Hillary had every conceivable advantage, both legal and illegal, and she still managed to lose.

You know how you get more Uber drivers with wheelchair-accessible vehicles? Charge extra for them. If there's enough money to be made in providing the service, then people will make the effort to buy and equip the vehicles. Uber drivers have no incentive otherwise to add the expense.
But I'd bet this "disability rights group" would sue if that happened, too.

I take exception with Nugent, kids need to go straight to a 22LR. I was given my 22LR bolt action at 8. I found it rather boring and saved up my chore money (farm boy) and bought a used Winchester 62 when I was ten. Delivered by the USPS no questions asked, no background check. Still have it and what must be 250,000 rounds later it still hits the bullseye at 25 yards. Many a varmint died and many a rabbit in the pot fell victim to that little rifle.

It was really tragic. He got radiation that slowed it down, and he regained some of his mental and motor skills, but still got wasted away and died from lung cancer.
Good God, he looked like Hell at the end. He was cremated so there wasn't some kind of awful viewing like when my Dad died of cancer. We closed the casket on my Dad after the just family viewing and visitation.

The guitarist in the vid looks like Kirchen (if you mentally age him) and sure as heck sounds him. I've seen Kirchen play at small venues in Austin a couple of times over the last couple of years. I'll have to bookmark that vid on my phone and try to catch him again and ask him about it.

Then a mid-afternoon Gelato at St Armands Circle.
We leave tomorrow after visiting the Ringling art museum."

"At the UTC mall in Sarasota. Joyce loves shopping, and is enjoying Lamb pita at the Little Greek. Ahi tuna on quinoa salad bed tonight. She is having fun Baklava for dessert.
Then a mid-afternoon Gelato at St Armands Circle.
We leave tomorrow after visiting the Ringling art museum."
What fun!
[To my fellow Hordelings, thank you all in advance for your prayers and well-wishes for my sister and our family.]

McCain has the same type of brain tumor as ibguy's sister and my FIL. my FIL is 3 years younger. 8 months after they discovered the tumor and let's just say that there is no recovering from it. Glioblastoma is a death sentence. Most only make it 1-2 years past diagnosis and 5 year survivors are extremely rare. This is with treatment including surgery, chemo, and radiation. There is no cure. He should step down and spend his remaining time with his family and friends and enjoy the time he has left. This is the reality of the situation.

"I knew someone whose dad died of brain cancer."
I knew someone also and there can be many mental problems associated with it from even before it is diagnosed. Reality can get very bent.

Well, there are a lot of different types of lung cancer.
My Dad died of Mesothelioma back in 1977.
My ex-wife's father died of lung cancer from cigarette smoking. Different kind of cancer.
It's ugly. The earlier the diagnosis, the better chance there is of survival with a combination of surgery, Chemotherapy and/or radiation.
If surgery can cut out the largest cancer mass, then usually they follow up with chemotherapy to kill off the rest of the cancer cells.
If they can't operate, then they treat with chemo to shrink the cancer mass, and then zap it with radiation, then more chemo to kill what's left.
People can be cured and given a lot more years.
I think gracepc (sometimes commenter here) had cancer and it has been arrested and is in remission.

Most of the mink have already died.
The domestic mink are not suited to survival in the wild. He lost about half the mink that very night. The first pictures showed hundreds of dead mink around their cages. They didn't even get fifty feet. The heat and humidity this week are also taking a toll on the few surviving mink.
If they aren't back in the cages by now, the only job left is picking up the dead mink.
And Deplorable Jay,
Us Minnesotans almost voted our state for Trump. We came within 40,000 votes for him, and about 3,000 votes in two house districts.
Outside of Minneapolis and St. Paul, we are mostly Republican. As the old Steelworkers die off, I expect our Iron Range to become Republican too.

The first time my mom had lung cancer, it was stage 1B. They removed her whole lung. She was a smoker who stopped the day they told her she had a mass on her lung.
If you're clear for five years, they say you probably won't get it back. It came back five years in. They treated with chemo and radiation and, from what I can tell, it did nothing. It was just too aggressive. She had a year and a half of treatment before she passed away.
Cancer is incredibly horrible.
The doctor wanted me to tell her she was terminal; I would not and would not let them tell her; I'm an only child and my Dad had already passed away. They give her six months; she died a short time later-- I think it was less than two weeks. BTW... she had the best oncologist in the metro detroit area and it didn't matter.

First do your research about lung cancer online. Write down any questions you have for his doctor. If you don't there will be something you forget. Don't be shy about it either.

I think the guy is talking out of his ass to make the family feel better.
He's 80 and has endured lots of really bad things in his life from a physical standpoint. If the morons here are correct, 2 years is not a reasonable estimate.

Cancer is incredibly horrible.
The doctor wanted me to tell her
she was terminal; I would not and would not let them tell her; I'm an
only child and my Dad had already passed away. They give her six months;
she died a short time later--
===
Being diagnosed with cancer places John McCain into a group of people that are better and more decent than he is in every possible way.
May he go quickly, and suffer little.

I would ask for a "realistic prognosis".
--
I'd say saying about stages is probably better.
Lower the number the better; some can be cured with surgery, some cannot.
They really have no effing clue re: prognosis. It's just a somewhat educated guesstimate.

McCain served his country honorably and well, as far as I know, so I take no pleasure in his illness.
Meanwhile, that worthless cocksucker Soros, who by all rights should have ended up as a bar of soap, lives.

First do your research about lung cancer online. Write down any questions you have for his doctor. If you don't there will be something you forget. Don't be shy about it either.

I hope that John McCain fights the cancer to the end many years from now. I honor his Naval Service.
I hope he retires and spends his time with his family, and fighting this cancer. Too bad AZ didn't give him the chance to spend the last six months with his family.

A bit of truth and background.
Round 'bout '97/'98, I ran the call center for one of the premier baseball & softball catalog (& barely new internet) sales operations, based in San Antonio, TX.
I was about 40 y/o, and my admin was a 26 y/o, bright, cheerful, intelligent and hard working young lady whom I'd plucked from a phone-sales chair, and promoted to the management side of the house.
Two months later, her boyfriend "felt" a lump in her breast....and he was an absolute pit-bull in dragging her to the M.D. to get it checked out.
As you might've already guessed, it was the bad news. It was the worst news.
I came to her hospital room shortly after she awoke from her radical++ mastectomy.
Her family and a couple friends drifted out of the room, most of 'em down the hall to the cafeteria.
She made sure no one was around but me, and then told me quite plainly; "They didn't get it all, Jim." And swore me to silence.
Five months later, she was gone. I was there with her family and fiancée, when she went.
One day after her 27th birthday, at that.
As much as I despise John McCain, he's now in my earnest prayers. Because I hate cancer, even more. Infinitely more.
Love one another, Horde. Love one another, now and evermore.

You're probably right. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer at 82 or 83. It was described as late stage. They didn't assign a number. The oncologist said he could give her 5 years. She lived 10 years cancer free. In the end she died from pneumonia.

"Thanks all. I am taking notes and any constructive advise you may have."
Be your father's advocate. Read about and understand his treatments. Know what medications he takes and why he is taking them. As I said above, don't be shy. If something concerns you ask the doctor about it.

Is there any legal mechanism for McCain to be forcibly retired from the Senate? Even if the cancer doesn't claim that part of his brain needed to make "wise" decisions, he's going to be increasingly gooned up on pain killers, right?
He can be impeached. He can be recalled by election if AZ allows that. He can be relieved of his committee assignments and his security clearances can be suspended and he can be given indefinite medical leave.
If he or his owners have any class he will resign with a great send off party.

The daughter of a friend of Her Majesty was diagnosed with a brain tumor. They thought they caught it early. Chemo was planned.
The very first treatment caused her brain to swell and killed her. It was her 22nd birthday. An accomplished, talented Christian girl. Her funeral at a large Lutheran church was packed.

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said the Justice Department will issue new directives to increase the federal govenment's use of civil asset forfeiture, a controversial practice that allows law enforcement to seize property from suspected criminals without charging them with a crime.
Not only do the feds seize property without even charging the owner with any crime but they often slap a gag order on the owner (who isn't charged) that he can't even talk to anyone about the property or the seizure. Yep, the feral government really likes to do that.
BTW, this crap either started or really got ramped up to 11 under Reagan and the War on Drugs. I don't know the relevant SCOTUS decisions on this but anyone who found this Constitutional in any way needed to be impeached, tossed off the bench and deported to some hell-hole where he would obviously feel more at home.

I think some of his sons are probably pretty good people. I believe his youngest son enlisted as a marine shortly after high school graduation. He was probably the only member of McCain's family who went into the military without being an officer.
Considering that not only is his father a senator, his mother is a rich business owner. Something went right with that kid.

As for B*tch McConnell and the GOP losers, I knew they wouldn't keep their word to repeal Obamacare. I'm hopeful the thing collapses on its own, thus making its repeal unnecessary. All they told us was "If only we had the Senate...if only we had the White House." They do and it's been a pathetic bunch of nothing.
One thing I will say for the Prog-commies is they stick to their nation-destroying agenda no matter the cost. They don't throw their hands up and quit. They might be godless handmaids of Satan, but they are men/women/other of action.

Round 'bout '97/'98, I ran the call center for one of the premier baseball & softball catalog (& barely new internet) sales operations, based in San Antonio, TX.
I was about 40 y/o, and my admin was a 26 y/o, bright, cheerful, intelligent and hard working young lady whom I'd plucked from a phone-sales chair, and promoted to the management side of the house.
Two months later, her boyfriend "felt" a lump in her breast ... and he was an absolute pit-bull in dragging her to the M.D. to get it checked out.
As you might've already guessed, it was the bad news. It was the worst news.
I came to her hospital room shortly after she awoke from her radical++ mastectomy.
Her family and a couple friends drifted out of the room, most of 'em down the hall to the cafeteria.
She made sure no one was around but me, and then told me quite plainly; "They didn't get it all, Jim." And swore me to silence.
Five months later, she was gone. I was there with her family and fianc�e, when she went.
One day after her 27th birthday, at that.
As much as I despise John McCain, he's now in my earnest prayers. Because I hate cancer, even more. Infinitely more.

From a story that went up on Drudge:
A Toronto man who spent $550 building a set of stairs in his community park says he has no regrets, despite the city's insistence that he should have waited for a $65,000 city project to handle the problem. The city is now threatening to tear down the stairs because they were not built to regulation standards.
LOL. The city could charge the guy $20,000 for the demolition and really make out.
Of course, this is all in Canadian dollars so it isn't real money ... but still.

All the Turtles seem to love Social Security. It did manage to make it out of the 20th century - just barely - and it won't take down the whole US government until a few decades into the 21st, so ... that's pretty successful in the eyes of any socialist or useful idiot.

Thanks, Slap.

Prayers sent. In addition, I went through this with my late father. It helps to find out what help is available in your area. There can be organizations that help you to find out what services are available.
There are agencies that can be paid by the hour to help out with health aides, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, transportation, and so on. There are nursing services that can check up on health issues.
Then there is assisted living.
I've been pissed at AARP since they helped push Obamacare. But I think they can give you an idea of what services there are in your area.

@319 - Thank you. I am fortunate to be in the MD Anderson system in Houston, so as long as nothing crazy happens I will indeed beat it.
I quit drinking, eating meat and anything else I can identify that's been chemically treated, and I never miss a medical session.
I am young, strong, and blessed, and will almost certainly be fine. And if it all goes awry? Well, my plan is to walk through the front gates of heaven with my head held high.
I can't count the mistakes and crappy things I have done in my life, but I am a believer, I have confessed, and I will accept whatever result God has in store for me.

A disability rights group in New York City has filed a class-action lawsuit against Uber, alleging the company doesn't do enough to provide for riders who need wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
The suit, filed today, says that the few wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAVs) available in New York aren't enough to accommodate the large disabled population - there are less than 100 to serve all five boroughs. It was brought by Disability Rights Advocates on behalf of a number of local advocacy groups.
I read this and it pissed me off. Not the actual story though. Just the bullshit ADA crap. I have to go to the next town over to take my dogs to a dog park. However apparently I did not know that there is a "dog park" in my town. It just isn't enclosed. There have been efforts to get it fenced so your dogs could be off leash, and it actually did get approved to happen. Then some bitch from out of town has apparently complained that this dog park won't be handicap accessible for her so its all been put on hold. Such bull shit.

Also.. I read gateway pundit regularly, but they're so/so for accuracy.
On tuesday, they had a post featuring a doctor from Kansas that said McCain's surgery was anything but routine and that there was something bad happening.
And he was right.

I read this and it pissed me off. Not the actual story though. Just the bullshit ADA crap. I have to go to the next town over to take my dogs to a dog park. However apparently I did not know that there is a "dog park" in my town. It just isn't enclosed. There have been efforts to get it fenced so your dogs could be off leash, and it actually did get approved to happen. Then some bitch from out of town has apparently complained that this dog park won't be handicap accessible for her so its all been put on hold. Such bull shit.

And what about the necessary additions to make it accessible to handicapped dogs? Special shitting areas right by the entrance for the dogs that can't walk too far. Little ramps needed for the dogs in those wheelie things.
You guys have a lot more planning to do ...

A Toronto man who spent $550 building a set of stairs in his community park says he has no regrets, despite the city's insistence that he should have waited for a $65,000 city project to handle the problem. The city is now threatening to tear down the stairs because they were not built to regulation standards.
LOL. The city could charge the guy $20,000 for the demolition and really make out.
Of course, this is all in Canadian dollars so it isn't real money ... but still.
Posted by: ThePrimordialOrderedPair
As I was stairlifting up the stair,
I met a Trump who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
I wish, I wish he'd go away.
When I came home, all soused, at three,
The DOJ was waiting for me
But when I looked around the hall,
I couldn't see them there at all!
Go away, and don't come back any more!
Go away, and please don't slam the door!
As I was tumbling down the stair
I met a Trump who couldn't possibly have been there.
I keep seeing him, even today.

I turned out ok. SO the shrink says.

So, there is this photographer I have to work with that is a diagnosed narcissist. He loudly proclaims he was diagnosed, but he was cured by his psychiatrist.
I just kind of blew it off for a number of yeas, and just thought he was difficult and quirky.
Then it got bad, and I started researching.
Narcissim be managed by meds and therapy, by not cured. EVER.
So basically, his psychiatrist got sick of him, and proclaimed him "cured" so he'd never have to deal with his cr@p again.
I guess what I'm saying is that as long as your shrink it's talking to you, you're good. However, when he suddenly slams the little notebook shut, waves his hand and says "it's a miracle, you're cured," you're not. He's just tired of your cr@p and the money isn't worth it to him.

Greetings, Horde! I've been up in the mountains the last couple of days with the Strangepork the Youngest (9 y.o.) This morning she caught her first fish, a little trout (not a very colorful one at all, maybe a Rainbow?). Not on a fly she'd tied, so not the perfect first fish, but on an emerger I'd tied, so pretty good. We admired and then released it. Now to read the post (ampersand) the comments.

"And I've learned from my experience that desire is 80% of
achievement. That if you really, really want something, if you really,
really, really want to do something, that the vast majority of achieving
it is wanting it. "
I know this is true but that other 20% can be full of black swans and if you don't watch out you can bash your brains out against things which will never ever allow that 80% to get you to what you "really, really, really want to do." The hardest thing is that part in the Kenny Rodgers song. "You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em."
Hard work is necessary for success but not sufficient. There is luck too, good and bad. The hard work improves your chances of making good luck happen and surviving the bad, but chances is all we ever get.
I look back at the "bad" things that hit me in my life and realize that they are entwined with all the good that happened and any good I did for others. All of it, good and bad makes the puzzle that is a life. Can't go back and change one piece without changing everything that came after both good and bad. So work hard but appreciate the work for itself not just as something to get to a goal that may be unreachable.

I've had to deal with unpleasant things, but not alzheimers or dementia. People talk about how hard it is for the person going through it, but I cannot imagine what it's like not having your loved one know your or remember your past together. My heart breaks for anyone going through that.
Disease does not only impact the victim. It hits the family just as hard and in very different ways.

since it's the Canadian health system he'll be dealing with.
If he's in a relatively large city, his treatment should be okay especially if they caught it fairly early. So if he needs chemo in Calgary or Edmonton, there shouldn't be any issues. My 90+old dad's been fighting prostate cancer for about 15 years but he got quick access to treatment in Toronto that might not have been the case out in the sticks. (Although that might not apply to Gingy's dad as I don't know the details.)

(Transcript - Via New York Times) TRUMP: Look, [Attorney General Jeff] Sessions gets the job. Right after he gets the job, he recuses himself.
BAKER: Was that a mistake?
TRUMP: Well, Sessions should have never recused himself, and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me before he took the job, and I would have picked somebody else.
HABERMAN: He gave you no heads up at all, in any sense?
TRUMP: Zero. So Jeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself. I then have - which, frankly, I think is very unfair to the president. How do you take a job and then recuse yourself? If he would have recused himself before the job, I would have said, "Thanks, Jeff, but I can't, you know, I'm not going to take you." It's extremely unfair, and that's a mild word, to the president. So he recuses himself. I then end up with a second man, who's a deputy.

It's good that he granted that relief, but I doubt it does much in the big picture. Obamacare costs 3 or so trillion dollars over ten years. I believe the penalties would only bring in ten to twenty billion over the same time frame.

@ Shibumi.
Are you armed? Do you live in a state where you can be armed?
Training is available. I can connect you with the right people for that. Though I can't make "hardware" connections for you, I can sure as hell advise you as to how to best economize in that arena.
Point is, you've got a dangerous person within your personal sphere.
NO ARGUMENT with that, please, ma'am.
You simply need to take precautions, obtain equipment and training, and take it all rather more seriously than a mere employment conflict.
I have more resources that I can bring to bear actively, in your behalf, than you can imagine.
Email is in my nic. Or, just scream in panic in any AoS thread. Word will reach me, I'm sure.

In high school I went to a martial arts studio. The owner complained that the city was asking him to build a wheel chair ramp for a huge price.
Being skeptical about government at any level will lead you out of Plato's cave of liberal-by-default culture. The younger the better. Better to grow up a contemptuous outsider than to wear the halo of one.
The shrieks of outrage when PJW said "We're the real counterculter" is better than Ode to Joy.

408 If Sessions has an ounce of pride he should resign tomorrow. And while everything Trump said about him is true why is he saying it in public and to the fucking NYT?

I think Trump agrees with you that Sessions should resign. But, for whatever reason, he doesn't want to fire him. So, Trump is publicly shaming him.

Shibumi, narcissists have a bad habit of hearing only what supports their self view and their desires.
Which is why it is so damned hard to get any reasonable work or actual facts from them.

It took me a long time to realize that when someone has a diagnosed personality disorder, it is going to be a very VERY difficult relationship-- at the same time, I was dealing with a boss I worked closely with who was diagnosed with passive aggressive personality disorder and in therapy for four years.
Yes, my life is like this:
Shibumi: Nice to meet you.
New Business Associate: Nice to meet you too. I've been diagnosed with a personality disorder, but I'm fine now!
FYI... they're not fine. If anyone ever says something to you about a personality disorder, run hard, run fast, do not look back.
/and yes, people tell me these things voluntarily and I do not want to know!

"The Washington Post featured a sympathetic article on the Minneapolis, Minn. police officer who shot an Australian woman last weekend, a marked shift from their coverage on former officer Jeronimo Yanez.
"The Tuesday article focuses on the Somali community fearing retribution because a Somali officer, Mohamed Noor, reportedly fatally shot a white Australian woman. The piece also emphasizes the praise that Noor has received from his community and superiors."

Dementia seems more gentle than Alzheimer or cancer, but not so gentle on the rest of the family. My grandmother outlived her mind by more than 10 years. Every time I saw her, she'd lost more years of memory ... the last time I visited, about 2 years before her passing, she was way back in the 1920's or older. Over the last year, she didntbeven know my mother, her daughter, who visited her twice a week. In fact, the last thing she forgot was that she smoked ... for almost 80 years.
I'll take something a little faster to leave this life, thanks ...

Nope, absolutely incorrect. It's why the Republicans are the "stupid party".
They think that by attacking conservatives they will show the liberals how open minded they are, and then the liberals will love them. But the liberals see they are full of shit, just as we do, and the liberals *still* hate them. But people like Jeb are too stupid to see that. Olbermann's one time tweet aside, the media will bury this. There won't be any large scale mourning for him. That said, let me repeat, I really hope he has remission, and then RETIRES.

Thanks Slap and ibguy for adding my sister Lisa to the prayer list. She had a grade three brain tumor (one notch down from McCain's glio) and is waiting for more test results to see if she is able to resume chemo. I missed most of tonight's comments since I was emailing her husband to warn him about news about McCain, and the likely dire and upsetting news coverage that is and will be coming in. He thanked me for the heads up and said he will discuss it with Lisa in the morning and suggest they keep away from news and internet for a few days.
If you have loved ones in a similar situation, you may want to warn them or their caregivers to shield them from all the nastiness, especially since McCain is (nominally) a Repub.
My prayers for all struggling with cancer and loss.
Where can I find this prayer list? I missed that part.
God Bless you all, my friends in gray boxes.

A great many people praying, and praying for the good of others, might be the most beneficial effect that anything John McCain has produced in his odd, meandering, wayward ways in life.
Other than his offspring, that is.
And we surely all now pray for all of them, too.

Which just shows you how stupid Leftards really are. McCain has been one of the GOP obstacles to repealing BarkyCare.

Thyroid cancer is comparatively easy and inexpensive to treat. It has a quite high survival rate. Tailor-made for Canuckcare.

That makes sense.
BTW... I'm in the Detroit area, and not only do many Canadians come here for treatment, I just read that the Canadian health ministry has agreements with several hospitals here and pays for their people to get surgery in Detroit. Because of "waiting lists."

It drives me absolutely bonkers when the left accuses anyone of "taking away health care."
First of all, their frickin' Unaffordable Care Act made it more difficult for people to afford insurance.
Secondly, the UCA (ACA) would result in people being denied care like Charlie Gard.
They call it "taking away" whatever benefit when someone proposes that we allow market forces to reduce the cost and expand choice and access.

If John McCain has to resign because of his health, AZ Governor Doug Ducey needs to appoint himself as McCain's replacement. He's a pragmatist and (like his would be predecessor) a strong representative of Republican values. He's even good friends with Lindsey Graham - one half of a powerful political duo nobody dares to ignore.
With Ducey the entire country could breath a sigh of relief knowing there are still grownups in charge.

TRUMP: Zero. So Jeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself. I then have - which, frankly, I think is very unfair to the president. How do you take a job and then recuse yourself? If he would have recused himself before the job, I would have said, "Thanks, Jeff, but I can't, you know, I'm not going to take you." It's extremely unfair, and that's a mild word, to the president. So he recuses himself. I then end up with a second man, who's a deputy.

If there is either a conflict of interest or the possible appearance of impropriety, one excuses themself.
This is to avoid the consequent s**tstorm.
Perhaps Trump should have chosen someone who wouldn't be in that position.
Moot point now.

Indeed. Also, maternity. A bunch of American hospitals up near the border have oversized natal wards. Many pregnant Canadiennes end up being routed south when there aren't enough beds in Canada's system.
So if we adopt Canuckcare style single-payer, where are we gonna be sending our own overflow patient loads? Mexico?

I don't think there would be cartoons for Islamic kids: the prohibition on making "images". It's why they don't like depictions of Mohammed.
But in a weird type of taqiyya or "soft jihad" they are putting out Muslim comic books here to lure comic book fans to Islam, even if it violates the prohibition on images which inspired the two shooter dogshits who targeted Geller and Wilders and ended up shot to death for all their pains.

Yes, but:
1. Session's alleged conflict was bs
2. If Sessions felt otherwise, he should have let Trump know about it so Trump could nominate someone else without that liability. That's Trump's whole complaint: Sessions waited until 2 minutes after he had the job to speak up about his conflict.

In some counties (like mine) getting one's carry papers is fairly easy, but still a (n unreasonable) burden! In others, next to impossible!

Get the CHL attended to, and we'll continue the conversation. You're in for a lot of fun in the training arena...of course, I *do* understand that you've got to have reliable employment underfoot, first.
But when you do, you're gonna meet some of the bright, shining stars in the shooting community, at the highest levels. You'll be VERY well treated, trained and brought up in all of the best ways of the art.
I have a friend. A very GOOD friend. Former enlisted U.S. Marine. Now, Board certified Emergency Medicine M.D. here in Texas.
Did his Residency there with you in Detroit. Carried a .45 ACP 1911 under his lab coat in the E.R. there, for two years.
He knows people there that...well....let's just say, you wouldn't meet them without proper introductions.
But those people can bring you up in the ways that are right, and you will not deviate from them when you are old.
All you have to do, is simply, engage.
My email is in my nic. I'd be honored to make all of the introductions amongst the parties mentioned, herein.

Yes, but:
1. Session's alleged conflict was bs
2. If Sessions felt otherwise, he should have let Trump know about it so Trump could nominate someone else without that liability. That's Trump's whole complaint: Sessions waited until 2 minutes after he had the job to speak up about his conflict.

What ought to have been done: Before inauguration, collect all information and have the best lawyers lay out how there is no possible way this is anything other than the proverbial "nothingberger"; share this information with respected and neutral individuals who are still generally respected in the eyes of the people; release everything then refuse to ever comment on it again, aside from belittling any media personality that brings it up.
This, of course, assumes that there isn't anyone who cares more about ranting about the media than shoving this aside and actually governing.

Trump isn't playing chess in the sense that he sees ten moves ahead. Trump just has finely honed instincts for people. That's what's so great about Twittter for him: he can make a throwaway comment that sets off the opposition and makes them look like idiots. He doesn't have to see ten moves ahead, he just has to be able to tell when his opponents are giving him an opening to exploit.

Sessions was advising the campaign for quite a while. He was to be the AG. All that should have been within his wheelhouse. Thus, Trump's disappointment in the man.

No comment on McCain. However, I was once again impressed by President Donald J. Trump and his lovely wife. Their message of sympathy and good wishes was proper, polite and done exactly as it should have been.
Trump was not my favourite candidate in the primaries; I was a Cruz supporter. However, he has impressed me quite favourably since he has been in office. I must admit being quite surprised at how good he has been.
Plus, as someone who visits at Ace's, I have to give him full marks for putting stunningly beautiful women like Melania and Ivanka out there in regular public view. The thought of looking at Hillary for four years...ugh. We might all have WANTED quick-onset glioblastoma before that was over.

Besides "The Recusal", which many, (including myself), would consider a poor move?
Jeff Sessions is a methodical individual. He always has been.
There is no "instant justice", just add water.
I'm going to reserve the judgment and pray that he methodically unravels the tangles, in which we have become.
If we were voting on A.G. before the election, I believe The Horde would have fallen 80% for Sessions.

My county was the only one that had an acutal gun board. The nearby counties did not, are were more liberal in granting them. The CCL/CCW did a 180 when we got a Republican governer. Now it's not really hard at all, although you do have to go through 8 hours of training and have 3 hours of range time. Not unreasonable, but not in the budget right now.

And is of a much faster pace, withal.

It's probably bullshit, but an interesting theory nonetheless.

I never thought I'd be rooting this hard for Donald J. Trump. I know I was rooting hard against Hillary Clinton, but the guy is pretty damn good.
For all his *flim-flam* and doublespeak he did during interviews before he ever ran? I guess I can chalk that up to having to do business in New York.
Disagreeing with yourself within the same paragraph was common to him. I now see that there was a method to his "madness".

If you haven't hears Sargon of Akkad, (a true Liberal in the Old School sense), he RAILS against SJWs and the Feminazis.
He understands that The Free Market, Capitalism, and not Crony Capitalism is the way to True Meritocracy.

What's interesting is how she reacted to that realization: by essentially firebombing the bridges behind her. Compare this to what Francesca Ramsey did: to essentially fold to the pressure and mainline the blue pill (for now)...
And lets not forget the initial sin that brought the hive down on both of them: being willing to treat their opponents as equals.

He is for Federal Programs and Social Safety Nets, but the Overton Window has moved so far left that Classical Liberalism is considered "Right Wing".
You can debate those sorts of people, because they are REASONABLE. They take your ideas into consideration because they know the numbers and can compete on a Mathematical Battlefield.

I'm watching the British Open and the Golf Channel just put up some stupid graphic about "countries" that had winners at the 4 majors - they were just trying to show how the British Open was the most international (Yaaay!!).
So, I look at the list as it's quickly put up and taken down. Some of the "countries" that had winners ... Scotland, Wales, N. Ireland ...
LOL. I guess as far as the retards at the golf channel know, if there's a flag then it's a country! What a bunch of Eurotrash ass-kissing douchebags they are.
And the British Open is okay ... but it's the least of the majors. It's a style of golf that almost no one plays. It's often dominated by the weather more than the play. And it was thrown into the trash heap of golf tournaments until Arnie breathed life back into it.

They can call themselves whatever they want. They aren't "countries". The British Open can call itself The Galactic, Single, Only Real Open Championship in the Universe ... but it's just the British Open. When someone says "the Open" I (and most others) think of the US Open.
But the idiots at the Golf Channel and ESPN have been on some insane drive to prostrate themselves in front of the Euros. Sure, the greatest league in golf is the PGA. Three of the four majors are in America. The golf at the British Open is a style that no one plays. But they can't stop themselves from trying to make the British Open the most important golf tournament in the world.
It's all just very annoying.

For those of you who don't understand the whole "I'm Going to Fight You" rhetoric? I'll explain...
There was a sports talk-show host named Jim Rome. He used to "run smack" about idiots in sports.
One day, this kid called the show and he was livid about Barry Bonds. A steroid-freak Monster of baseball.
In the whiniest voice possible from a guy who was just reaching puberty, it seemed, he screeched...
If I ever see Barry Bonds... I'll... I'm going to fight him!
It was the funniest thing I'd ever heard on Sports Radio and it lives with me to this day.

Whether that'll be in the form of the Conservative Party or a resurgent UKIP that basically exists to drag the Cons to the "Right", Right meaning anything saner than the whackadoodle shit the modern left craps out, remains to be seen...
With the Lib Dems basically immolating themselves on the altar of the EU, I think the UK is ripe for a new 3rd party, especially in the blue collar Labour districts that helped push Brexit over the line.

As Majors go, I love the British Open because you are seeing Links courses. You don't see those often and they provide a different test. The weather is probably the only protection the courses on the Open rota has. Most modern day pro players chew them up with good weather. My favorite Major is The Masters. Nothing beats Augusta National in the Spring.

I like the Masters the best, too. I like that it's always played on the same beautiful course (though I would have preferred that they not change the course to "defend" par).
But, honestly, I'd take pretty much any regular tournament over a links one. I just have no real interest in links golf. And by the measure of actual courses in the world, most other people don't, either. I prefer a course that plays well on a beautiful day. I'm not really all that thrilled watching people play in a hurricane and I certainly don't want to play in one, myself.

Its Golf Channel and NBC idiots now. :-) Yes, nobody plays links golf which is why the British Open is unique. I like it. I don't give a shit whether they call it The Open or The British Open. It came first so if they want to call it The Open, meh, doesn't bother me. I still call it the British Open.

I think in order by age its; The British Open, The U.S. Open, PGA Championship, The Masters. The US and British Amateur Opens used to be Majors.

my favorite shot was tiger woods' 16th hole at the 2005 masters. he hit it at a 90 degree angle to the hole and it rolled to the edge, hovered and dropped in. greatest shot i've seen but others prefer other shots, usually from the sand traps like watson once. i think.

Mickelson's shot from the pine needles, between the trees, on the back 9 (can't remember the hole) was amazing. Also Bubba Watsons crazy slice from the woods to the green in a playoff to win the Masters was memorable.

Once he wife went after him with the 7 iron it was all over. He lost his mental strength and then his body really started giving out. But he was the best for well over a decade with no one even close to him. Not a bad career.

pitching from the rough or a blast from a trap to the hole is as much luck as anything. but that shot by tiger at the 16th depended entirely on his read of the green and the preposterous angle needed.
and the ball stopped just at the edge of the hole before dropping in very much like caddy shack. magic.

He also didn't change how he swung the club as he got older and less flexible. Thats why he started to break down physically. When your young and have the flexibility of Gumby, you can swing with abandon. Once you hit your 30s, you can hurt your self. Tiger found that out.

Yep. It all came crashing down. Plus he had to cut down on his rampant screwing, which I think he might have needed to take the edge off of things or for whatever reason. Well, at least you didn't have to lock the dog up when Tiger came around any more.
But during his time at the top he was the most focused athlete I have seen. Spieth got a good idea of how hard that had to be. He pulled a Tiger for a little over a year and he saw how difficult it was to keep that up. That little screw up at the Masters threw him off for a year. It just stopped Jordan dead in his tracks. But I think he's coming on for another run. I have Spieth picked to take this British Open.

Not even close. TIger had 14 wins and 6 runner-up finishes. Jack had 18 wins and 19 runner-up finishes. Jack came in first or second in almost ten full years worth of majors.
But I think Tiger's best decade was more dominant than Jack's best decade.

I think Tiger is the classic example of the pampered playboy who thinks with his little head.
It just wasn't meant to last.
So he should now be enjoying all those lovely STDs of the rich and famous and go quietly into that nice evening.
He ain't all that and a bag of chips, after all, just a man.

Tiger was a douchebag but he wasn't a pampered playboy. He earned every ounce of his fame. He was/is a dog but I don't think that was a secret with any of the people he hung out with. He just didn't want the public to know about it all. If only he hadn't been banging the neighbor's daughter - who got all frustrated that he didn't "love her" - then he might have been able to keep things going for another five years.

604: I don't know about that. Tiger's body was starting to break down in '08. That last Major he won (US Open) he basically won on 1 leg. It was really fucked up but he kept playing and won. He also severely injured him self.

With 10 days left in the month, the Windy City is already 13 ahead of last years murder rate. I'm trying to think of something snarky about what this means.
I'm coming up with nothing. I'm only coming up with questions about why people who live in neighborhoods like Austin and Englewood put up with this.
Dealers, gangbangers, thieves, and murderers the perps and most of the victims they are but don't they mean something to somebody. Is there nobody that wishes that were still alive?
Great job you are doing rahm.

Chicago may get the headlines (not so much in the MFM) They like to hit Trump/Russia, etc. Many, many cities are suffering the same fate as Chicago. Mostly just in the black areas of any larger cities. Social justice people blame racism of course, but its more than that. I blame the breakdown of the black family units, but there is little that can be done about it anymore.

Warning, LONG post below.
So, Jeff Sessions. President Trump gave three NYT reporters an exclusive interview wherein he really bagged on Jeff Sessions. This little tidbit is interesting:
TRUMP: Yeah, what Jeff Sessions did was he recused himself right after, right after he became attorney general. And I said, "Why didn't you tell me this before?" I would have -- then I said, "Who's your deputy?" So his deputy he hardly knew, and that's Rosenstein, Rod Rosenstein, who is from Baltimore. There are very few Republicans in Baltimore, if any. So, he's from Baltimore. Now, he, we went through a lot of things. We were interviewing replacements at the F.B.I. Did you know [Robert] Mueller was one of the people that was being interviewed?
HABERMAN: I did, actually.
TRUMP: He was sitting in that chair. We had a wonderful meeting.
HABERMAN: Day before, right?
SCHMIDT: Did he want the job?
TRUMP: The day before! Of course, he was up here, and he wanted the job.
HABERMAN: And he made that clear to you? He would have
TRUMP: So, now what happens is, he [Mueller] leaves the office. [Then,] Rosenstein leaves the office. The next day, he [Mueller] is appointed special counsel. I said, what the hell is this all about? Talk about conflicts? But he was interviewing for the job. There were many other conflicts that I haven't said, but I will at some point. So Jeff Sessions, Jeff Sessions gave some bad answers.
HABERMAN: You mean at the hearing?
TRUMP: Yeah, he gave some answers that were simple questions and should have been simple answers, but they weren't. He then becomes attorney general, and he then announces he's going to recuse himself. Why wouldn't he have told me that before?
So, here is President Trump really laying into Jeff Sessions. God knows that I have been asking, "Where the hell is Jeff Sessions?" for months.
Now, there are a couple of schools of thought on this:
1) This is a head-fake by President Trump. While he and Jeff Sessions have neither met nor talked to each other in months, that doesn't mean there is no communication between them. There are a number of people who could act as secure go-betweens to allow them to get their ducks in a row. The evidence for this is a) President Trump is a man who is extremely loyal to his friends and Jeff Sessions was really the first guy in DC to jump on the Trump train. b) Why would President Trump go the failing NY Times to bad-mouth a supporter of his. In particular, why would he use one of the reporters who has been the primary recipient of the majority of leaks that have been damaging to his administration? c) This seems like something done in a fit of pique, a lashing-out by a very frustrated President Trump, but we know he doesn't work like that. Therefore, the thinking here is that this is kabuki for the benefit of the media and the Deep State, and in this little set-piece drama, Trump is wringing his hands and bitching about how Jeff Sessions done him wrong and he is unhappy with him. Then, once everyone is sure that Sessions has lost the support of the President, he starts bringing the hammer down on people, possibly as part of a prosecution of the Hillary email shit, or maybe Obama illegal surveillance, something that is going to absolutely shatter the Deep State.
2) This is a long overdue signal by President Trump that he has had enough of a do-nothing AG, and he wants to see some action. The thinking here is a) He really wants Sessions gone, because he hasn't done shit. President Trump can't fire him, because look at all the grief that Comey's firing caused, and you can be sure that firing Sessions would be that x 10. b) He uses the New York Times to send the message in the strongest possible terms that Sessions must go. The hope is that once Sessions sees that the President is willing to go public with this in the NY Times, of all places, he will be so shamed that he will resign. c) "WH Insiders" claim that Sessions might resign as early as April.
So, while I am personally unsure as to what is happening, I am inclined to scenario 1) because i) President Trump has always been very loyal and ii) really? The NY Times?
But, I believe that what occurs during the next few weeks is going to be the proof of whether this denunciation of Jeff Sessions is real or just a shiny object with which to distract the media.

3. Trojan Horse Strategy. It's possible that Trump might be distancing himself from Sessions in order to make the wrong sort more comfortable around Sessions. Trump's detractors will figure him to be an enemy of the administration, and get a lot more comfortable around him...

Trump wants 'the wall'. Sessions wants 'the wall' -- and hates drug dealers and criminals. Civil forfeiture becomes the way to attack the drug dealers and take their ill-gotten gains and pay for the wall.
Trump distances himself from Sessions because he knows civil forfeiture is unpopular with libertarians and conservatives.
My two cents and worth every penny.
Trump wants 'the wall'. Sessions wants 'the wall' -- and hates drug dealers and criminals. Civil forfeiture becomes the way to attack the drug dealers and take their ill-gotten gains and pay for the wall.

4. Trump is just telling the truth about what happened, damn the innuendo and tea leaf reading. If wants to fire Sessions, he will man up and do it.

Today saw an interesting theory that the recent
change to asset forfeiture policy was to enable the Feds to go after
groups involved in promoting or committing vote fraud and take their
shit via RICO.
It's probably bullshit, but an interesting theory nonetheless.

There IS something off about the jibes at Sessions. While the media and progressive Democrats go Russia, Russia, Russia, , the White House, Homeland Security INS, and DOJ litigation branch are being much more aggressive to illegal immigration than I dreamed possible this fast. They are racking it up and rough with it too and the Dems and media just fumble along with Russia and ignore the massive policy and enforcement changes that are already underway. There is some misdirection going on I think.

That pic of a car in a pool....at the condo in Florida 2 years ago, a guy up in years (way up in years) somehow went through a iron fence and halfway into the club house pool. Not sure how he did it, but the pool was on the corner of a street, guess he just missed the turn...

Asset forfeiture would be aimed at cartels too. My guess is they are going to bust them financially plus all the businesses (wink, wink) who do business with or for them.

Asset forfeiture would be aimed at cartels a corrupt entity like the CGI or their foundation; or a recalcitrant DNC that refused to turn over a server too.

I don't understand why Tigers agent didn't take care of the hot chick problem for him; dozens of smoking hot, well compensated paralegals at his neck and call. All covered by iron clad NDAs and attorney-client privilege.
