Evening and morning to all the early risers and late toilers!
I found out yesterday that, because of new (governmental?) rules, starting Jan. 1 there is a new salary limit for those who are exempt for overtime -- in other words, those who must clock in and out on the computer app used to manage our time. And I am a mere $600 on the low side of that. The only was to avoid it would be for my boss to ask to have my job reclassified, which would mean paying me more money. Unlikely. And I don't want to punch a time clock again. I already feel like a seventh wheel in my office; being the only clock-puncher would cement it. Looks like the retirement thing is gotta happen soon.

" Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shell."

Paris is the latest spot for sandrat violence ahead of the Israel/France match.
Posted by: Ben Had at November 14, 2024 06:35 AM (t8vHj) 81
From what I read, the Supreme Court ruled in NLRB v. Noel Canning (2014) that the Senate must be in recess at least ten days to enable the president to make recess appointments.
So, basically, if Congress formally gavels out a session for a two week vacation, then Trump can make appointments during that time. That means the Senate will have to end “pro-forma” sessions like McConnell did by having one member gavel in an empty Senate every three days during breaks to prevent Trump from making recess appointments during his first term.

@BehizyTweets John Bolton just said Matt Gaetz is the "worst nomination for a cabinet position in American history." This confirms that Gaetz is indeed the best and most qualified person to lead the DOJ. President Trump made a revolutionary pick.

President Trump's nominees to date are mostly in their forties and to a person seem singularly committed to blowing up the entrenched and self-serving power structure found across the entire executive branch of the federal government. This I'm sure this is quite apparent to the geriatric leadership found in Congress and in many agencies. If Trump's bold strategy Is successful he immediately puts in place people who are at least a generation, more likely two, younger then the aged leadership that refuses to give up clinging to power, who over the next 4 years will gain the experience and develop the necessary networks to push aside the geriatrics quite possibly for the next 20 years. President Trump is not looking for a 4-year victory. He is looking for a generational change that will remap the course of this country for decades. The coming confirmation battles are going to be brutal because they are about far more than mere appointments.

The most important things for Matt Gaetz to remember is to do what the people of America want done as Attorney General. First and foremost he needs to shut down the access to online prostitution services across the country. Second he needs to make sure the federal government continues to enforce the DOJ's Asset Forfeiture Program to enrich the government. And lastly he needs to recuse himself on any and all cases that come before him.

How come Cali gets to do its own standard? Texas does not. NY does not. There is either an EPA or there is not. Posted by: rhennigantx at November 14, 2024 07:52 AM (gbOdA) Unfortunately, California is such a big market that it leads the other 49 states around by the nose. You can thank the Golden State for stupid gasoline cans. There should be two brands, Californian and American.

Posted by: rhennigantx at November 14, 2024 07:52 AM (gbOdA) Because various administrations have granted waivers to Cali which allows them to get the policies they want enacted without taking any of the flack associated with passing them. Those should all be undone and the ability to get (essentially permanent) waivers removed. Posted by: I used to have a different nic at November 14, 2024 07:58 AM (ExV1e) 181

"It's chaos and disarray in Trump's camp already!"
I'm sure this person has direct knowledge of just about nothing going on in Trump's orbit or what's happening at Maralago now.

"is starting to wear out his welcome" in Trump’s orbit...he’s become almost a comical distraction, hanging around Mar-a-Lago, sidling into high-level transition meetings & giving unsolicited feedback on Trump’s personnel decisions."
Posted by: Mister Ghost at November 14, 2024 07:51 AM (TGPs7) — — Trump apparently likes Elon and that’s all that matters. If Elon is stepping on too many dicks and some people are losing influence over the king, tough shit. Build several successful companies and make yourself a billionaire and Trump might listen to you more, otherwise watch & learn, cupcake.

182 No more. They just put the Cali crap on everything. I had my KIA inspected in PA about 12 years ago, and some sort of valve in the air system had a crack and it showed up on the computer. Guy said it was a Cali mandated pollution giz, and even if I was in Allegheny County with emissions testing the car would pass. Replacement cost was a bit high, it's still there, and the car runs fine.

Gaetz made a deal for Trump to make it easier for Speaker Johnson. DeSantis happy because Gaetz does not run for Senate or Gov in 2026.
Gaetz, like Trump, is not afraid of the deep state and the NY Times, like most in the GOP are. Posted by: Jonah at November 14, 2024 08:06 AM (YCxFk) 199

It’s hilarious how the FNM still doesn’t get it…. They think denouncing Hegseth and Gaetz as unconventional (or whatever) will hurt them… not realizing that for Trump voters this is EXACTLY what we wanted when we voted for DJT. Like cats chasing laser beams….

In a clip played widely this morning on CNN, Mike Huckabee proclaims, "there's no such thing as a Palestinian". In the attached video he goes even further. Trump and Huckabee promise peace in the region. Ya, like the US Cavalry brought peace to the Great Plains.
And soon there won't be. If only there was something the people who really care about this could have done. That is what the Chump voters, the Stein voters, and refuse to vote Harris people dictated. Nation of martyrs it is, the people have spoken and the Palestinians "supporters" demand they be utterly annihilated. There are only Christians, Jews, and Infidels. Or to christofascists, only Christians and Infidels. Maybe we're all just "humans" or something. What a silly notion! No More West Bank? Problem solved! It's being optioned for Hotels. Throwing the vote because Biden couldn't get anything done has certainly cut off their noses to spit their faces. If countries like Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, and Qatar fail to aid the Palestinians, their genocide is assured. Trump will do nothing to help Palestinians. He sees Gaza as the new Monaco, another playground for the rich. Posted by: Intercepted DU Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at November 14, 2024 08:10 AM (ycI94) 211

I'm not sure Gaetz will be confirmed, as Miss Lindsey, Murk and Collins have already come out against him. However it's good to see who is coming out against him in the bureaucracy because it clarifies who the problems actually are
