38 I had a forlorn hope that this electoral blowout might encourage the NPCs to quiet down. The Party apparatus certainly has - no rioters have been deployed, as the usual best demonstrated practices call for.

But after the guy murdered his whole family yesterday, and all these people are making death threats all over social media, I think I see where this is headed.

These people are conditioned to hate, and to chimp out on command. They're all watching the sky for the Batshit Signal, and it isn't coming, so that free-floating aggression is just oozing out through the seams.

Sad to say, it might be better if the Party set up a good old-fashioned fiery outburst of violent bigotry in the cities for their monster babies to get it out of their system. Now it's just going to come out on randos in Normieville, USA.

Keep y'all's heads on a swivel.

There is a zero percent probability either will be confirmed.

But the confirmation hearings will be epic and revealing.

Last time the leftists pulled the trigger the day Trump was inaugurated. It didn't let up for four years.

*biden's currently the nominal president of the left. I don't think the optics would be all that great for riots to break out on his watch.

But, yea... a long simmering hate sprinkled with "random acts of violence" seems somehow fitting and something we would likely do nothing about.

What you are seeing is a long term societal problem, not a political problem. I believe it stems from the collapse in any true religious belief in much of the population.Those who trust in nothing but themselves easily fall into despair when things get hard, and end up in self destructive madness of various kinds.

"Judge" Merchan: After reviewing the various aspects of the trial record and the relevant legal precedent, I have determined that Donald Trump was re-elected to the Presidency and, therefore, this bullshit trial has failed in it's primary purpose. My daughter has moved all the money she received - totally independently of the fact that I was on this case - to banks in a country which does not cooperate with the United States so at least the trial succeeded in it's secondary purpose. Since I have concluded that eventually some higher court will throw all this bullshit out, I shall overturn the verdict, retire, and leave the country for my retirement in Greece which, purely coincidentally, lacks extradition with the US. Merchan, out.

Well, to some extent, it is... They did, after all, draw a border around the US. And they enforced it for long enough that we didn't have quite enough Santa Muerte worshipping Aztec street warriors to tip the election for Harris.

So that's a kind of gerrymandering, I guess.

108 Donald Trump won more votes than he had before almost everywhere in the United States. Voters shifted right in rural areas, in suburbs and even in New York City. But it’s the urban areas that should unnerve Democrats most. These places are led by liberal mayors and city councils. They are diverse, and they are economically powerful.

Take a look at America’s 50 biggest local economies (as measured by GDP in 2022). In 2020, Trump won only one of them. In 2024, he took nine and made significant gains in nearly all of them.

150 JROD,
Two types of laptops, those that are dead and those that will die.

They are designed from the start to be disposable and are more difficult to fix, upgrade, or troubleshoot and use proprietary parts and drivers driving up the costs to maintain. So, if you choose laptops, it requires discipline to regularly do full backups either via the cloud or at home.

So for me, a tablet or something like a Google notebook is fine for portable usage. Some people having to travel here and there have to rely on laptops with their job and life on it.

I pity them.

187 photo ID’s mean shit now. We give them out like candy to the illegals. Having a photo ID or drivers license doesn’t mean you’re a citizen.

--

If there has to be a different type of license clearly marked for young drivers with temporary permits, or there needs to be a clear description of the driver (ie. height/weight, restrictions, etc), there is no reason under the sun there shouldn't be some indicator on any license issued to illegals that, yes, they are permitted to have this license to drive, but they are not US citizens. Bright yellow band around the permit or anything at all to designate they are not legal citizens. Of course, we know why there is no requirement for such a thing...

Giving the illegals a "Real ID" driver's license gives them the ability to travel domestically without a passport or other forms of ID, permits them to enter most federal facilities and, in many places, vote.

Many states are not 'just' giving illegals a simple driver's license/permit. They're giving them citizenship documentation without the background processing.

By design.

Posted by: SMOD at November 12, 2024 08:23 AM (RHGPo)

235 For the most part, other than a few key departments, the face of the dept as secretary of this or that name at the top does not actually administer that department. Instead, you have nameless under and asst secretaries and directors of agencies, etc

For example, secret service and the border patrol are both under Homeland Security dept but function as largely independent agencies with their own director. The FBI is supposedly under the DOJ but in fact pretty independent of it.

The major roles for secretaries is the administrative law part for rulemaking and to serve as the public face if the agency for budget and outreach to clients of that agency. Not for running day to day ops.

Trump, like a lot of other presidents, has found that the names at the top don't matter as much as the underlings that are loyal to the president so that the president can run the show out of the White House. At the extreme, some presidents find it most useful to run foreign policy out of the White House instead of fooling with using Secretaries of Departments.

There really is no wiggle room in the constitution or the statute, congress gave plenary authority over immigration and aliens in this case.

Blame recent Scotus decisions for the lost of three GOP seats for their statutory interpretation on racial gerrymandering.

Courts simply have little to no reason to be involved in drawing district lines and their asinine insistence to retain some of the Warren Court's decisions like Baker v. Carr has led the Court into mucking about with what should be state legislative decisions.

The whole majority-minority district nonsense was initially made up by the Court and then buttressed by changes to the VRA during GHWB administration that essentially racially balkanize the US into fiefdoms.

Decades may pass. Even centuries. But surely one day Americans will finally be ready for a completely inept buffoon of a president.

Some people just like to argue. Twas always thus in any comment section or even back in Usenet.

There is a book that describes DC bureaucracy and it is A Government of Strangers by Hugh Heclo. Essentially, a new president (not Trump in this case) is always hindered by having to pick a group of relative strangers to political positions inside agencies. Those political picks are then in the situation of being in the middle between the existing civil service and the president's advisors.

The civil service, which is hostile to change and political influence at the best of times, tries to sandbag any new appointee relying on superior knowledge of how the agency works.

At the same time, presidents, to be successful have to have their eyes and ears of loyal presidential aides installed into agencies so as to coordinate real policy in the White House. Trump is better positioned with his do over presidency than most new ones.

447 That DU intercept is a window into how much trouble the Dems are in 2028. They’ve got no widely acknowledged leadership figures lot call on, they’ve all aged out or been discredited.

I actually disagree to a point. I think Whitmer is a dangerous opponent, presenting herself as a battleground states moderate who has been a victim of right-wing extremism.

I'm not sure how the far Left would react to Fetterman, but the last few times I've seen him speaking, he's improved greatly, and successfully portrays himself as a normal guy/outsider. Still a lot of issues before he could mount a presidential run, but he's more relatable and dangerous than most Dems.

Or...they could run Bernie again lol.

The whole case relied on its wacko interpretation of a predicate federal law to claim a wacko interpretation of violating states laws. Then on top of those problems, there was a Scotus ruling that has every lawfare action against Scotus required to determine where PDT had immunity and where he did not by specific hearings that are reviewable by appellate courts (federal and state).

Under that ruling, Bragg introduced illegal evidence at the trial that involved matters that Scotus has declared as sovereign immunity matters and Merchan never had any hearing regarding those claims before the case went to the jury. So, even under that, the convictions are likely to be overturned in appellate courts for a retrial on that issue by itself.

The whole construct was to get Trump branded as a convict over ridiculous interpretations of law (just as the Enron, Bob McDonnell, and Conrad Black, convictions were gathered by that same putrid group of former DOJ prosecutors under the Lawfare Section of Brookings Institute. BTW, Brookings has Qatar as a big donor.

517 The civil service, which is hostile to change and political influence at the best of times, tries to sandbag any new appointee relying on superior knowledge of how the agency works.

At the same time, presidents, to be successful have to have their eyes and ears of loyal presidential aides installed into agencies so as to coordinate real policy in the White House. Trump is better positioned with his do over presidency than most new ones.

523 I actually disagree to a point. I think Whitmer is a dangerous opponent, presenting herself as a battleground states moderate who has been a victim of right-wing extremism.

I'm not sure how the far Left would react to Fetterman, but the last few times I've seen him speaking, he's improved greatly, and successfully portrays himself as a normal guy/outsider. Still a lot of issues before he could mount a presidential run, but he's more relatable and dangerous than most Dems.

Or...they could run Bernie again lol.

The Dem party has the same problem of the GOP. The Dem activists and donors want harder left politicians than the base voters want. The GOP (pre Trump and still with remnants) have a similar problem--donors and party apparatchiks wanted endless wars, grifting, spending, amnesty, etc. while the base hated.

Easier to put him on the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. Those folks get the clearance needed to see what the intel agencies are doing and the info they have collected. They then can advise the President.

Most presidents learn that following the public organization charts will lead to disaster and thus they have to rely more on those folks that do not need confirmation such as WH advisory positions or that are in relative obscurity as asst. and under secretary positions in agencies.

The advisory types can reach outside the WH into agencies with the proper lower level political hires for information and essentially bypass figurehead Secretaries in most departments.

Heads of agencies are more important in those huge departments like Homeland Security which has the Secret Service, ATF, Border Patrol, Customs and Immigration (ICE), etc. These essentially are controlled by the President as Secretaries do not have hire and fire authority for underlings. The President does.

584 Chris Wray, head of the FBI, fears he'll be forcibly removed as FBI Chief.

If only. He won't so much as get his hair mussed and he'll be a talking head fixture for the rest of his worthless life.

Wray would be extremely dull as a talking head. He apparently is able to say only two things.
It's always "I can't answer that question" or "I don't recall".
Seems kinda boring.

586 The press is working overtime to sabotage Trump's cabinet even before being confirmed and seated by tossing out names of people he's supposedly already selected.

Until confirmed, none of that matters.

587 I thoroughly enjoyed watching Dr Evil enforce discipline towards Ferrell as Mustafa in Austin Powers, even though he was playing his usual insufferable self but with a Turkish accent.

Yup. This is why I am not getting upset by any of the names being floated for various spots.

592 Jeh Johnson seems to have moved towards the center after leaving the Zoobama administration. His is the only rational response to the Trump second term, and Democrats should follow his lead.

596 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J. 🙏 for all in need.

Where's the rum gone? Just kidding, for the moment, but where's the money gone? IDK but there are/were many related articles even earlier when the Biden was moving out, for example:

Vox, 'How Democrats got here.' Democrats really need to choose electable vice presidents, June 28, 2024

In small part, "According to senior Democrats who spoke with New York magazine's Gabriel Debenedetti in 2019, Obama had assumed that Biden would be too old to run for president by 2016. And he reasoned that this fact would render Biden an especially loyal second-in-command: Bereft of political aspirations of his own, Biden would have no compunction about putting Obama's interests and goals above all else."

Mint, The $91-million question: What happens to Biden’s campaign money? Reuters, July 19, 2024

CNN, 'Clinton privately urge donors to keep giving to Biden as long as he remains presumptive nominee,' July 20, 2024.

Also in part, "One of the sources said the Clinton are choosing to be "deferential to Biden's decision." However, a second source, who is familiar with the Clintons' thinking

597 and has spoken with the couple in recent days, insisted that it is more accurate to say they are "deferential to the process."

Vox, 'Biden is out of the 2024 race. What happens to his campaign donations?' Kamala Harris is the only Democrat who could seamlessly access Biden's hundreds of millions in campaign cash. July 21, 2024

Harvard Law Today, 'Can Kamala Harris access Biden campaign funds?' Harvard Law elections expert Nicholas Stephanopoulos says that, if chosen by Democratic delegates, ‘Harris has the keys to the [Biden reelection] account’ By Scott Young, Jul 24, 2024

I can't help but wonder, given the obvious democratic party split, did the ole War Room crew from the 1990's actually control the final outcome more than we may imagine or credit them for? That, and 'no one Fs with a Biden.'

And so, the Clinton-Biden pact (holding more to the middle) vs. the O, Sanders, Warren, Pelosi progressive cult. 🤔

But, where's the $ gone? 😉

Good day, everyone!
