the worst part of trump is not trump
The freak show that is the Donald Trump presidency gives us so many things to lament, and mourn, and goggle at. But for one organization, it is a singular gift, valuable beyond all measure: that is the Democratic National Committee. For me, the worst part of the Trump presidency is not Trump.

Is This Their Cause?
In the wake of Robert Mueller's indictments, Michael Gerson has a question for Republicans: To what circle of hell are Republican officials about to consign themselves? It would be useful for members of Congress to declare that they will never enter the fourth circle — the demolition of the integrity and independence of the FBI — if only to deter Trump from forcing a constitutional crisis. Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) has done so, arguing such an action would be “the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency.” But it is hard to imagine such courage written broadly in today’s ... more »

I'm now seeing those predictions play out in reality. Miss D. and I have been considering replacing one of our older vehicles. Due to the astronomical prices demanded for new vehicles, we've ruled out buying one, and are looking at relatively recent-model used cars. During our search,... more »

Every single feeding will firm up the bird's belief that it is the general rule of life to be fed every day by friendly members of the human race 'looking out for its best interests,' as a politician would say. On the afternoon of the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, something unexpected will happen to the turkey. It will incur a revision of belief." - Nassim Taleb
Energy 102, Germany's CDU/CSU and FDP rejecting the Greens' anti-coal agenda
I like the development in the new German government. #1 CDU getting closer with #4 FDP (Free Democratic Party) in climate and energy policies while potential partner #5 Greens go more idiotic and watermelon-ic (green outside, red inside) in demanding zero coal power. The Greens have more commonality with #2 SDP and #6 Linke (commies). CDU is correct -- if they follow the Greens for the sake of coalition-majority, #3 AfD will greatly benefit and further expand as AfD is explicitly anti-renewables alarmism and cronyism. Germany having 3rd highest electricity prices in the world might ... more »
Distracting From The Distractions That Distract From Other Distractions-- Paul Singer, Rubio And Bannon
Trump-world generates so much hair-on-fire news... how does anyone keep up? For example, I thought Bannon's pledge to Trump on Friday night to destroy GOP billionaire Paul Singer for financing the Steele pee-pee dossier on behalf of Marco Rubio, would be big news today. But then Trump's Kremlin-paid campaign manager Paul Manafort was indicted on 12 charges including "conspiracy against the United States" and Trump campaign advisor George Papadopolous already pled guilty to lying to the FBI about Russian interference. Singer and his group are the single biggest contributors to the ... more »

Avoid Genetically Modified Organizers
I’d call them Academically Modified Organizers except that doesn’t relate their haunting similarity to agricultural GMOs. University-incubated activists are designed to share a tragic characteristic of killer crops: the terminator gene. And it self-selects for stupid. Of course establishment-perpetuating education is going to adulterate whatever it is selling as liberatory ideology. For example: anti-oppression to […]
Repeat after Senator Jeff Flake: I will not be complicit.
It does sound silly coming from a politician elected to oppose complicity. And what does it say to citizens tirelessly circulating petitions and urging their neighbors to vote? Apparently even US senators are powerless to work within the system! Let’s thank Jeff Flake for that kernel of truth. If your resistance to Trump and corruption […]
DO US soldiers know what they sign up for? Horror? Mass murder? Burn pits? PTSD. Disability. Homelessness. Viagra.
It was a crass thing for Trump to say to a recent war widow, but of course it’s also fundamentally said in praise of brave men. They knew what they signed up for. But do American soldiers know what they sign up for? Did Trump voters know what they signed up for? I’ll put it […]
It turns out Hollywood’s proverbial “casting couch” belonged to Harvey Weinstein. Glad it’s out of commission.
Do you wonder why only Harvey Weinstein is taking the fall? Was he just too fat and too ugly? Is it because he produced really bad movies? I am heartened to see the articles about the tolerance of Weinstein’s abuse of power often linked to our Womanizer in Chief, but again Trump is also low […]

Strayer to Acquire Capella Education in $1.9B Deal
HERNDON, Va. — Strayer Education is tying up with Capella Education in a deal worth about $1.9 billion under an administration that looks much more favorably at non-profit schools that had come under a harsher spotlight in recent years. The two schools, however, stood out from others mired in inquiries about students left with large […]
AP Sources: Education Dept. Could Scale Back Help on Loans
WASHINGTON — The Education Department is considering only partially forgiving federal loans for students defrauded by for-profit colleges, according to department officials, abandoning the Obama administration’s policy of erasing that debt. Under President Barack Obama, tens of thousands of students deceived by now-defunct for-profit schools had over $550 million in such loans canceled. But President […]

Theodore Roosevelt was an avowed Mahanian. He was also a closet Maoist! Or at least, his convictions about strategies for lesser competitors ran parallel to those made popular by Mao Zedong during the Chinese Civil War and Second Sino-Japanese War, as transposed to marine warfare by the Great Helmsman... more »

LEWANDOWSKI: IT WAS THE FBI'S JOB TO VET TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN STAFF FOR HIM!
I've seen a lot of bad takes on Indictment Monday, but here's one of the worst: Corey Lewandowski believes that the Trump campaign had no responsibility to vet Paul Manafort before hiring him, because the FBI should have done the vetting on the campaign's behalf. Gateway Pundit has the quote (and thinks this makes perfect sense): Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski went on Varney and Co. to discuss the arrests this morning. Lewandowski lashed out at the corrupt FBI for hiding information on Manafort from candidate Trump before he came on campaign. Lewandowski said this ... more »

Tehran Times *NBC:* *White House Denies Iran’s President Rouhani Snubbed Trump* TEHRAN, Iran — The White House on Monday denied the Iranian government's claim that President Donald Trump asked to meet with his counterpart from the Islamic republic last month but was turned down.

GOP Tax Agenda Conflicts With Their Hopes To Keep Congressional Majorities In 2018
You've probably already seen the new poll from NBC and the *Wall Street Journal* yesterday. The headline was all about how Señor Trumpanzee's approval ratings had dropped to new lows. Trumpanzee's "job approval rating has declined to the lowest point of his presidency," was what everyone took away who looked at it. More important, at least for me, is that the preference for Democrats to take over Congress as a check on Trump, has continued to increase. Looking ahead to the 2018 midterm elections, which take place a year from now, 48 percent of registered voters in the poll say th... more »

The Future Of The LHC, And The Human Factor
Today at CERN a workshop started on the physics of the High-Luminosity and High-Energy phases of Large Hadron Collider operations. This is a three-days event meant at preparing the ground for the decision on which, among several possible scenarios that have been pictured for the future of particle physics in Europe, will be the one on which the European Community will invest in the next few decades. The so-called "European Strategy for particle physics" will be decided in a couple of years, but getting the hard data on which to base that crucial decision is today's job. *Some conte... more »
