"Signing executive orders is not the way our country is supposed to be run"
"Executive orders are an outrage" Three points to anyone who can guess who said the two statements above.

Why are you guys supporting someone so blatantly unqualified for public office? Is it because after years of dysfunction (mostly perpetrated by the Republicans), you've lost confidence in actual qualified politicians? How exactly have politicians "failed" anyway? By actually charging taxes instead of nickel and dime-ing the country's infrastructure and social programs into uselessness (oh, wait)? By requiring rules preventing impulse purchases of deadly weapons? By letting women and minorities have a say in how the country is run?
You wouldn't last ten seconds in a country run by genuine tyrants.

Bytor, one of your sources for that spent literal hours defending the pronounciation "Thighland".

That shit was just great. "Australians, Thais, and British people pronounce 'Thighland" Sure we all collectively looked at each other and just said "we absolutely don't".

For those of you who do not C-SPAN, on Tuesday, August 11, 2020, the full U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit reheard oral arguments to determine whether a federal district court judge must dismiss the perjury case against Michael Flynn as recommended by the Justice Department.
I’ve linked the entire dialog (w/ audio), but I want to bring your attention to 00:18:00 “I THINK THERE IS VERY LIMITED TO -- LIMITED DISCRETION TO TURN OR DENY THAT MOTION. THERE IS IN THE CASE LAW EXAMPLES LIKE THE ONE, JUDGE MILLETT OR ANOTHER JUDGE USED ABOUT BRIBERY OF THE PROSECUTOR. IN FOKKER ITSELF THE COURT RECOGNIZES THERE IS AN ASSUMPTION OF REGULARITY -- PRESUMPTION OF IRREGULARITY. JUDGE TATEL: LET'S SAY YOU'RE RIGHT THERE IS SOME DISCRETION TO DENY THE MOTION, THEN WHAT HAPPENS?“ 00:18:36 “IN THIS CASE IT IS DIFFERENT FROM WHEN A PROSECUTION IS INITIATED IF IT WERE DENIED, THERE IS NO ROLE FOR THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH ANY FURTHER BECAUSE SENTENCING IS THE ONLY THING THAT IS LEFT. NOW THE GOVERNMENT AND MR. FLYNN COULD TAKE THE POSITION THEY ARE GOING TO MANDAMUS AFTER THAT, THAT IS WHAT I BELIEVE THEY THINK WOULD BE THEIR NEXT STEP. IF THAT DID NOT HAPPEN THE DEFENDANT WOULD GO ON TO SENTENCING AND THEN THERE WOULD BE AN APPEAL BY EITHER ONE OR BOTH OF THE PARTIES. JUDGE ROGERS: -- JUDGE TATEL: HOW WOULD THAT APPEAL COME OUT? Beth Wilkerson (a defense attorney) saying, “There would be no role for the prosecutor with regards to a sentencing of the individual defendant who is no longer being prosecuted by the government“ is unbelievable: A) U.S. code: 28 U.S. Code § 455 “you are disqualified if you are a party to the proceeding” B) this is a prosecution without a prosecutor! You have no solicitor, you have no district attorney, you have no US attorney......the attorney general of the United States decided to dismiss this case!! Judge Sullivan can’t be judge and prosecutor!!! |

He's a little fucking rat. Love to know how republicans can be A-OK with this. Or is it now "well if we want to win the election it doesn't matter what gets done to get it".

Because you don’t go and change how things are done less than 100 days from an election! Mail in voting is the fast track to voter fraud and I don’t want my tax dollars funding voter fraud......why else hasn’t congress voted on, passed and funded this mass mail in possibility in the past? American’s voted in person during the World Wars and previous pandemics in the past. People have no problem making their way to the streets to protest and they sure know how to line up at the liquor stores in weed dispensaries! If you want to vote, grab your mask and stand in line!!! Speaking of Republicans Quote:

Any evidence to go with that waffle? No, you don't. You're just parroting Trump's lines cos he's shitting himself about it. Furthermore, I'm actually baffled by this "Americans voted in person during the world wars!" argument. Who are you referring to here? The civilians in America who had no risk going out to vote? The soldiers in far flung counties who were voting by, you guessed it, mail? Please explain to me this argument so it's so nonsensical. "Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." Really need to start heeding these words don't I.

I think they've defunded that hay bail with all the straws they're pulling.

Just did this in support of the U.S. Postal Service. Its, easy, quick, and costs you nothing, so why not? Also, this tweet: "After Elizabeth Warren's request the Postal Service independent watchdog is investigatingTrump magadonor Louis DeJoy policy changes and potential ethics conflicts." Elizabeth Warren, one of the few out there with a spine to do something effective, and she gets shit on by people for doing so. |

I usually try to avoid the political discussion here over the weekends, usually just posting about music and such. However, when you wake up Friday afternoon to Obamagate news......one must share:
NPR tweet thread Just in: FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith plans to plead guilty to charges related to information-gathering involving the Trump campaign and Russia four years ago, according to his lawyer. It's the first criminal charges associated with how the Russian investigation was conducted. Clinesmith had been identified in an earlier report by the Justice Department inspector general. He allegedly doctored an email to help get court approval for continued surveillance of onetime Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Subsequent investigations validated the core findings of the Russia investigation: That Russia attacked the election in 2016. But they also revealed problems with some actions by the FBI and the Justice Department. More on the charge against Clinesmith: Ex-FBI Lawyer To Plead Guilty In Case Linked To Alleged Abuse Of Surveillance Power “Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith has agreed to plead guilty to a single false statement charge, marking the first criminal action in an investigation centered on how intelligence agencies gathered information involving the Trump campaign and Russia four years ago in the waning months of the Obama administration.” “In the waning months of the Obama administration” It was June 7, 2018 when I first mentioned Executive Order 12333 wondering why President Obama wanted to change how the nation’s intelligence agencies could spy on Americans. Seriously......any of you free minded freethinkers care to speculate as to why President Obama would make such a change 72 hours shy of his Presidency ending? Quote:
BREAKING NEWS Paul Sperry teeet “ BREAKING: New FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith criminal pleading reveals Crossfire Hurricane team recv'd memo from CIA exculpating Trump adviser Carter Page on Aug. 17, 2016--1 day after FBI formally opened individual case against Page & 2 mos before it obtained 1st spy warrant on him” |

Sad sad Nazi, I’m afraid your soup is getting cold! You see, America hasn’t executed a traitor by hanging in a long time: No, Barack Obama won’t be physically executed, but his traitorous ways will be broadcast for the world to see and his presidency will be forever tarnished. More importantly, these things will play out in a court of law. Today was just a small preview of the indictments to come......the big names are coming! Also, my narrative hasn’t changed! It was May 18, 2018 (page 203) when I first questioned Barak Obama’s involvement: Quote:
