The Morning Rant

talking ape.jpg
"In my opinion, the lyingest sh*tweasel in this whole Russian collusion clown show has been Congressman Adam Schiff. He's been insisting all along that he's seen "conclusive evidence" of Trump's involvement with shady Russian operatives who helped him steal the presidency from Hillary, the rightful winner of the 2016 election. Which would be news to Robert Mueller, who's been looking for precisely this evidence for 2 whole years. Which raises the question: If Schiff actually had evidence, why didn't he put it on a thumb drive and walk it over to Mueller's office? Was that so hard? If he's been sitting on it all of this time, wouldn't that be obstruction of justice. If I were Mueller, I'd be thoroughly p*ssed. So does Schiff have the goods on Trump or not? Because if he's got nothing (as I suspect), then what he did is the equivalent of shouting 'FIRE!' in a crowded theater when there is no fire. There should be consequences. At the very least, Schiff needs to put up or shut up."

32 Schiff's only "evidence" seems to be the Trump Tower meeting with Veselnitskaya - that was all a pretense to talk about the Magnitsky Act.

Schiff seems to think that digging up opposition research on a Democrat opponent is somehow forbidden.

He's been insisting all along that he's seen "conclusive evidence" of Trump's involvement with shady Russian operatives who helped him steal the presidency from Hillary, the rightful winner of the 2016 election.

Maybe he shoulda told Mueller. Or maybe he's just lying. Probably lying.

He should bear in mind what is in my opinion the most important of the 10 commandments: "thou shalt not bear false witness."

I know he will reap what he's sown when he gets his final reward, but I hope he does some mighty fine reaping on this plane first.

They don't even have that, sadly. There was no intent that anyone has demonstrated to get to dirt on Hillary from foreign sources during the Trump Tower meeting. A meeting with a foreign agent on a policy item that is deeply associated with a foreign country might be unseemly but it certainly isn't illegal. When the focus changed, Trump Jr. walked out.

The "Trump Tower Meeting" might be the stupidest plot point of this entire farce. Never mind the bald-faced conspiracy run by the Clinton campaign (which is more evil but less stupid).

===========

Theory:

The EU has done what it could to ensure a hard Brexit because they believe all of the fear mongering about its negative effects. They hope (and will try to inflict) this in an effort to do two things: punish the British and warn anyone else thinking of going.

When it does not happen, and Great Britain isn't suddenly thrown into a 10 year depression (an actual prediction of what would happen), the result will actually end up encouraging more exits.

186 Mostly yes. Flynn is the spoiler since he probably actually didn't do anything at all cried uncle to protect his family. Flynn was extremely hated by the Obamas for opposing them on Iran. I think destroying Flynn was the major secondary purpose of the investigation.

That is still pending after the last shit show. I wonder if the Flynn drama is going to change course now.

The deep State really did not want Flynn as National Security Advisor.

He was their victim.

Mueller always wanted to get Manafort, from his time at the FBI when the DOJ would not prosecute. Note, Mueller quit right after Manafort got the book thrown at him.

90,000 frickin' dollars per page.

That seems almost reasonable by government standards. And they wonder why conservatives hate big government.

I have no idea. If they did it, articles of impeachment would be drawn up within five minutes. Given the mood right now, that would probably fail and it might be worth it.

One of the articles in the morning report links, think it was the very last one about not becoming a terrorist, made it very clear how that mindset works

People are most easily radicalized to harm another person when you first convince them that they are a victim. The old Fascists and Communists all used yhat, everything was a Jewish plot, or saboteurs, or a capitalist conspiracy.

As such helpless victims of circumstance in their own eyes, their brutality was seen as justified, as achieving justice when it was unattainable by other means.

Creating a false victim narrative isn't a harmless thing, it's dangerous to all of society. Those who have pushed Intersectionality should be brought up on charges, for fomenting unrest, sedition, and ironically - hate crimes, under the very laws the helped create.

An Australian appeals court on Friday dismissed a bullying case brought by an engineer who accused his former supervisor of repeatedly breaking wind toward him.

The Victoria state Court of Appeal upheld a Supreme Court judge's ruling that even if engineer David Hingst's allegations were true, flatulence did not necessarily constitute bullying.

Hingst said he would take his case to the High Court, Australia's final court of appeal.

340 An Australian appeals court on Friday dismissed a bullying case brought by an engineer who accused his former supervisor of repeatedly breaking wind toward him.

The Victoria state Court of Appeal upheld a Supreme Court judge's ruling that even if engineer David Hingst's allegations were true, flatulence did not necessarily constitute bullying.

Hingst said he would take his case to the High Court, Australia's final court of appeal.

I saw it for the first time recently, and it was an odd mix of tones and weird performances all while not taking the ridiculous story premise either seriously enough or not seriously enough.

It kept trying to straddle a few lines, and Peck's terrible accent didn't do it any favors. Olivier's performance in the beginning really stuck out as out of place as well (though that did end up working better after about the halfway point of the movie).

I understand he is permitted to lie to God and everyone, but that's only on the floor of the House and Senate chambers. But he carried on his scurrilous charade in committee, on TV, and multiple public venues for wholesale redistribution.

Forget about asking him to yield his committee chairmanship or making some contrived, insincere apology. Why is this man not being frog-marched to PMITA Correctional Facility?

This coup and conspiracy is an outrage. The players HAVE to be outed and punished and to a degree that everyone and his mother recognize the penalty as being sufficient and a future deterrent.

418 I agree, although if their art suffers for it, then its bad. Selling out as in "getting more pay and higher profile" is fine. Selling out as in "doing different work because that's what people will buy" sucks for an artist.

I've always looked at artist as just another profession. You sell products and if the market demands a change, you change to accommodate the market. That's really what selling out is.

the rest of the country combined.

Yes, there are the Apples of the world and then there's everybody else. But Apple and sundry makes money by selling stuff everywhere, they're not local businesses. And while many are emotionally invested in the area, there's no real reason they couldn't move eventually. And if the business climate deteriorates enough, they will.

You're mistaking concentration of wealth and nominal dollars for real wealth. A 500 foot box may be more expensive than a 3 story mansion but that doesn't mean the box dweller is wealthier.

California for instance, has an absurd welfare dependent population and is one of our poorer states when adjusted for cost of living.

LA is literally one of the poorest areas in the country. These places have net outmigration for a reason.

Probably many countries combined. But it is much akin to 3rd-world wealth, sadly. Many of these places have largely eliminated their middle classes either through destruction or through forced out-migration. A tiny rich crust on top of a poor structure is how the third world works and doesn't bring you generalized success. You need adequate real employment and wages to do that. They have real employment in those places, but the wages all to often aren't matched to the costs of living - costs that continue to spiral out of control because those at the top don't care about them and can comfortably pay the monetary prices of their poor decisions while remaining immune from the social consequences. They continue pursuing toxic policies that ruin their states and cities by making it so expensive that the middle class either vanishes and becomes poor or leaves to try again somewhere else.

And it's stupid when people whine that an artist has "sold out". It's like saying an engineer "sold out" for taking a better job with more pay.

Saying Detroit is dead is stupid too. They have lost half their population since the 1960's, but I go through there all the time, and parts of the city are actually coming back. I would not go to some parts of Detroit (and Dearborn, which is becoming a Muslim stronghold), but calling it dead is inaccurate.

Bruce Willis in Die Hard.

Really. Up until then, he was the goofy cool hipster in Moonlighting. Totally changed his image and career, and probably ruined Moonlighting through a combination of hubris by Willis and jealousy by Cybill Shepherd.

441 We don't yet know what's in the report, only the parents and teachers have been allowed to see it. This alone is suspicious. How are we supposed to trust Mrs. O'Rourke to do the best thing? She gave me a C on my book report, and it made milk come out of Louis' nose when I read it to him.


What we do know is:

- I asked Santa for a Paw Patrol fire truck, and got one!

- Sources tell me Suzy says she heard reindeer on her roof

- I saw elves wrestling on channel 54 just last weekend

- Only me and Aaron knew Bobby pooped in his grandmother's slippers, and he still got a lump of coal in his stocking!

- There's dozens if not hundreds of TV shows and movies with Santa in them

- Reindeer are real, I saw some at a Christmas tree farm

- I put out cookies and milk every year, and there's always a bite out of at least one cookie.

- NORAD tracks Santa's progress every Christmas Eve - are we to doubt our government?


I smell a cover up, and corruption that goes to the highest levels. Until we see this report, there's no reason not to believe in Santa.

447 Thou shalt not bear false witness. There is a reason it is in the 10 commandments. Even atheists or others from different traditions can understand that false accusations gut the entire legal system and must be severely punished. Convincing the state to exact punishment on an individual requires honest brokers at every stage. As with the Smollett case, one dishonest broker breaks the entire system upon which society is built. Every journalist, politician, or government official (current or former) who accused Trump of colluding with the Russians is guilty of bearing false witness. These scum are counting of Trump's notoriety to defend against libel/slander. But they accused him of a crime, and that is actionable.
