Illegal migration and all its toxic implications, and bold action to end these, should be the lead issue. Along with full repeal of O-care. These are truly "differentiation" issues.
The point, given the realities, is not to pass things before November, but to put maximum pressure on Dems (and select GOP, if only the WH would realize Corker and Flake are not the last that need to be dealt with), and take them out. Take them out because on those and perhaps other issues, which were central to Trump's election, they hold unpopular positions.
The most basic mid-term strategy there is, for an historically unusual situation in which the WH (previously it was the "Tea Party") is closely identified with positions that are popular, while the Dems and some GOP are aligned with unpopular positions.
"Infrastructure" clouds things, it does not produce bright lines (barring a complete reversal of historic norms). Davis-Bacon. Labor unions. The fundamentals haven't changed that much (and I consider both the Keystone obstruction and O-care "cadillac" plan surtaxes extreme outliers only possible because of the radical WH at the time - Schumer is not a kamikaze pilot).

Most of the big issues dealing with illegal immigration including the wall, chain migration, the lottery and DACA are being argued right now as part of the spending bill that needs to pass before the 19th or we get a shutdown. So pretty contentious.
Repeal is not going to happen this year so they can do that but then people will bitch that it's all failure theater because nothing will happen.
I'm not convinced doing immigration in January and then doing nothing for 9 months is a winning strategy for Republicans in the fall.
I think a lot of people will be influenced when the Russia investigation collapses and the new investigations of Hillary and the DOJ under Obama begin. There's your contentious issues.

Anything big, like repeal, or immigration reform, cannot happen all at once. These are behemoths, which need to unraveled a bit at a time in order to make the changes stick. Slow and steady wins the race. As long as things are moving behind the scenes, and I do think they are, I'm happy.

Aside from that there seems to be a problem with the basics here. Politics (back when it existed in Congress) was, most of the time, forcing votes on contentious issues, with the hope of using said votes against incumbents. In my time there I'd say 80% of the votes fit in that category. It is not assumed/needed that you get big, conclusive results. It is vital to get people on the record and generate ammo against them.
Failure theater criticism (while often absolutely legitimate) is not a thing with the wider electorate that will determine how many GOP seats exist in the next Congress (esp. Senate). GOP can campaign against "obstructionist, do-nothing" Dems - as has often been successfully done against both sides in the past - on issues that got Trump into the WH. That's my basic point.
Infrastructure will be of no political use against Dems - unless, against the odds and the fundamentals of one of their key base components, they do a basiji mass-dash across the minefield by completely opposing it. Otherwise, much more likely, it merely muddies the distinctions. McCaskill and Heitkamp et al vote for it. Basically a non-factor in the election.
Recall the main challenge in mid-terms is for the WH to generate enough energy to get *its* base to the polls, to avoid the typical opposition party gains. Way you do that is contentious issues. Which also give you angles/ammo against incumbent Dems.

Miller goes on the Sunday programs to be a one-inning closer. So he kept pitching over and over that the Wolff book is false down to its page numbers, while Tapper tried to get Miller to concede that particular things were true.
Miller: False in some, then false in all
Tapper: True in some, then true in all
This degenerated into their talking over each other (what Miller wanted) and then into a shouting match, until Tapper pulled the plug.

Watched the original Poseidon Adventure last night with VT-GF. Wow. Plot. Acting. Effects that didn't overwhelm the first two. 8 Oscar winning actors, all older. The will to live. Morality. Women and children first. Cis middle class white privilege.
It had it all!
Also Leslie Nielson as the Captain which I had forgotten.
And the kid, the kid that showed up in Airplane was the SPITTING image of this kid, right down to gee golly precociousness. Had to be deliberate in Airplane, LOL.
Go back and watch it sometime.
Also had the TCM tribute reel to all the film people that died during 2017. A few zeros but mostly real elder statesmen types, classy, or at least classy images. Hope they weren't all dead animal rapers.

You keep saying that but I completely disagree. A huge part of Trump's campaign was based on a giant infrastructure bill and it will play well with a significant part of his base as well as many Democrats who will benefit from it.
And it puts the Democrats in an awkward bind, do they vote against something they have been advocating for for years simply because of Trump or do they vote for it and prove that Trump is not a psychotic monster who is always wrong?
The reality is that the party in power almost always loses badly in the first mid-term of a new president, the average is something like 24 seats. They currently have a big majority but if they want to keep that big majority they better deliver some results. This is one of their best chances because nothing is getting through the Senate this year with 51 votes. Budget reconciliation is no longer an option so anything that passes is going to need 60 and that means Democrat support.
We'll see how much they can get done on immigration before the 19th, I'm not as pessimistic as you, but if they don't then the environment changes dramatically and all bets are off on current thinking.

That we can even be in this situation - where a swarm of mega-scandals unprecedented in our history is, literally, unknown to most people (esp. "high disinformation" consumers of MSM crap) - should factor into our speculation.
There are literally so many huge scandals (real ones, most involving criminality of sorts and at a level never seen in our history) I can't even remember them all unless I write down a list.
Yet ...... you probably know, and I certainly know, many many people who are almost completely unaware of them. IRS and Benghazi. For anyone with a background in govt. and media, older than 30, those chapters alone were stunning. Enormous scandals - absolutely no press interest, and zero traction with the high-disinformation crowd.
Things have only gotten worse, as even larger mega-scandals come into view - with limited public understanding or interest.
Small leaks in the blue wall are meh. Still find it hard to believe any of these mega-scandals will be treated the way they should be (and which would result in political damage comparable to the Watergate mid-terms of '74). Do you see the press camped out on Comey's lawn, yelling questions at him? Ditto for any of the other principals? Do you see these gigantic explosive stories leading - or even being included - in the "news", with anything like the detail and energy they deserve?
In a country that remains beyond parody - a ridiculous "investigation" of "collusion" with Russia continuing, baseless and utterly farcical (not to mention illegal under the regs), while a swarm of mega-scandals unprecedented in our history remain obscure to most people - my confidence is very low. Guess we'll see.

Disagree that infrastructure was a big part of Trump's victory, or even material. In that general category of economic issues, trade was the key.
And once again I will predict its extremely unlikely that the Dems who matter (those up, and vulnerable) will have the slightest difficulty jumping in the pork trough set out by the WH (and it is a certainty there *will be* incentives for them of the usual variety). The extremist dead-ender Dem opposition to the monster Trump is not how McCaskill and others define themselves to their states. Recall that most of the vulnerable Dems' entire existence is based on a lie about their politics ("centrist" at home, mostly progtard in DC).
I find it amazing that people believe these sorts of Dems are in any sort of bind. These kinds of Dems never engage in the histrionics back home - they live a lie. Voting for pork for the home state is the extremely likely path, and there will be no political downside where it matters.

The biggest one being that the Obama DOJ routinely violated section 702 of the FISA law to spy on Americans without a warrant and it has been going on for years. It increased right before the election when it was used to spy on Trump and Obama relaxed intelligence sharing laws which led to rampant unmasking and leaking but the spying has been going on for a long time.

Make them vote against the RAISE Act (4 times). Make them oppose O-care repeal/relief for the devastate individual market (3 more times). Make them vote against border security funding, against binding approps language to end "sanctuary" lawlessness. Trump base voters (incl. Dems/I's) made him president based on issues, policies, not personality. Make the incumbent Dems in Trump states walk the plank, repeatedly, on the hottest hot button issues that made Trump president. It's the most basic political strategy there is (or was).

Recall that enforcement priority - set by Trump with zero congressional say - has been violent felons and gang members, and select multiple illegal entry offenders. This can change in one hour. Even better, no need for an explicit, official change. Just body english. Posture.
"You know, I said all along that we had priority on other categories, waiting for Congress to act. But we've made a lot of progress in deporting really bad people. We're ramping up overall, and enforcement might start to affect these people the Dems claim to care so much about - but won't act to help, by adopting the whole package of things we need to make sure even a small amnesty is not a disaster, like all past ones have been."
Boom.

Perhaps it sets the stage for Trump and etal. to ask where the money went from the last infrastructure plans when the Dems start to howl that the money is not going to "their" causes.
Perhaps this is an Election ploy to make the dems be on the defensive with the blue collar workers that "would have" had the work if the money had been spent for real.
I know the last 6 years would have been better around here if their would have been several more real projects other than the I-75 stupid commuter lane project.

The redlettermedia boys had an interesting take on that film. Said they were among many who complained the franchise was being controlled by Dinsey execs, and they desperately wanted one of these flicks to just be done by ONE person with a vision.
Then ol' Rian (what the hell, spell your name rite, dude!) came along, and they were like "Yes, one man's vision, but not THIS version of a vision!"
So they were kinda taking a poke at themselves (but not in a Hollowood perv way of taking a poke at one's self).

And actually I rather like Trump referring to himself as a "very stable genius". The media is appalled at what they perceive as his grandiosity (and certainly Trump is not self deprecating) but I think he does it not only as a defense, but it's a routine for him ; He puts on a big show to get them all riled up and it's quite entertaining.

Over at PJ Media, a lurid and shocking tale of GPS Fusion smearing a real journalist who was exposing corruption in Venezuela. I believe I heard this guy on a radio interview, where another journalist, from the WSJ, was confirming what he said about GPS going after journalists personally.
So it's now completely new (but it has been - naturally - nearly completely ignored or suppressed).
A nice related nugget to accompany what presumably will be some fireworks from Fusion's bank records.
I am, really, out of popcorn. Have to get some today. This is a good reminder.

His story sounds similar to that of Thor Halvorseen. He testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee on the first day of hearings along with Bill Browder about Fusion GPS how they went after him over human rights and corruption issues in Venezuela.
I've posted this link a couple times but if you haven't seen it you should read it. Fusion has been involved with a lot more than just smear campaigns but much more nefarious actions like breaking into people's homes and threatening their families.

I worked in a different federal entity for a while. Literally, a make-work system, for people with no job skills, who don't do any actual work, and people with shedloads of education (and possibly very few job skills) who don't do any actual work.
The lower end people make well over minimum wage, but don't necessarily have to even show up. The people on the upper end make well above six figures, and do even less than the minimum wage folks.
And in between, it's hit and miss. Some dedicated employees, and slackers who don't give a damn.

No, what needs to happen is corporate America needs to stop responding to d'bags saying on twatter they're going to boycott xyz company. I don't like when they do it to conservative hosts and don't think we should stoop to that level.
However, when an advertiser does pull advertising from a conservative host (think Rush/Hannity) then I do feel we should complain loudly and take our money elsewhere.
Unfortunately, in talkradio Fortune 500 companies have bans on "controversial" talkshow hosts which includes all conservative hosts.

The market is more for China in many ways with some films. They don't care if it tanks here if it can sell in China and elsewhere.
When I saw the Martain and the China part seemed to come outta nowhere, and they were portrayed as heros, I was like wtf?!
Anyway, I was so disappointed when I learned all that. Another way in which America is no longer about us...but everyone else.

It would be interesting to know whether a steady diet of Hollywood films has made the Chinese more open to diversity. Would they be willing and desirous of taking in their fair share of Muslim refugees as well as unfortunates from third world nations such as Mexico and Somalia?
Can we pass the mantle of the Diversity Lottery to them? It could be one way for them to solve the sex imbalance crisis.

I've been binge watching the new Twin Peaks. Part of me is hoping Lynch isn't one of the dudes who is part of Hollowood casting couch set. And I'm watching for Chinese influence... and not seeing any.
The early scene with Cooper, in a weird place, there's a woman who MIGHT be Chinese... it's hard to tell. She's speaking, but it's impossible to understand her, and then she's gone. I was wondering, it's impossible to make any sense of this stuff Lynch does, but was that supposed to be a knock on the Chinese?
I have no idea.
The Josie character in the earlier series, she was from Hong Kong, I believe. As duplicitous as anyone on that show.

Of course, most of David Lynch's career has been in movies, rather than tv.
Mulholland Drive features the movie industry to a large extent. As does Inland Empire. Neither show Hollowood in a very flattering light. Although with Lynch, it's so damned abstract, it's hard to know what he's doing, precisely.

Does he really think the American people will buy that?
He's declared out right that his book will take down the President. His Politics are known and there's all that sweet money that will be raked in by his book plus speaking fees plus donations by rich liberals.

"Millions of television viewers will tune in on Sunday to watch the Golden Globe Awards, one of Hollywood’s biggest and glitziest affairs that sets many movies on the path to Oscars glory.
But few are likely to know who actually decides on the winners.
This year, the voters include a Russian former body-builder turned actor, an ex-Miss Universe from South Africa and an ex-engineer from Egypt.
They are all members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a somewhat opaque group of about 90 journalists — and one of the most exclusive and secretive clubs in Tinseltown.
Though some members of the HFPA work for well-respected foreign media outlets, many are freelancers employed by obscure publications."

Seven years is a long, long, long time with Alzheimer's. I've known people who go from a lifetime of achievement, no issues, completely cognizant, to Alzheimer's diagnosis, to dead in six months.

Agree on overpriced at $300k, but might also be overpriced at $260k. Look at comps. This is where having a buyers agent can help, although as others have pointed out, any agent involved would prefer that the sale happen at the highest possible price because commission.

Heh. Not exactly. It doesn't sound like those old sentimental, liberal plots that teach a lesson by having a character walk in another's shoes, so to speak.
It sounds more like a blood-libel thing, i.e., whites killing blacks to use their body parts. Because ....of course.
(Actually, it makes no sense to me. If I were going to off someone so I could put dying granny's brain in a fresh body, I'd probably pick a healthy white woman to harvest, not a black man. But hey, I guess their whole point is that whitey doesn't have any problem killing blacks.)
Anyway, the movie sounds like a barrel of fun!

I really think we need to reevaluate TV broadcasting licenses as its now a form of campaign contributions.
These are public airwaves and if networks are going to start being
political on just one side of the aisle, maybe something needs to
change.

Is his show carried by "over the air" stations, or just cable? Because, if it's exclusively cable, no licenses involved.

Well, I wouldn't exactly call it 'pandering.' The character portrayed by an asian was an extremely annoying comic-relief character... and, I'd argue, was badly cast as well, with an actress who had whatever the opposite of charisma is.
The SJW's of Hollywierd picked an asian chick actress who they found as non-threatening to their statist-quo as possible, stuck her in a Jar-Jar Binks type role, and they're going to ask us, with a straight face, if we like it or we're raciss, bro?
