Not the FBI’s data. They picked and chose what they wanted, no doubt electing to deem “disreputable” those news sources that didn’t fit their narrative.
This is the worst kind of “research”, which enables you to continue to mask the shooting deaths of inner city minority kids with the false claim that it’s just as bad elsewhere.
Princess, you don’t give a shit about 10 people being shot and killed every weekend in Chicago, but 10 people being shot and killed twice a year in a mass event makes you moist.

The reason liberals attempt the “Yabbut the governor is a Republican” misdirection when dodging blame for black-on-black murders in the US is so you don’t see FBI data from sources like this:
It’s black youth murdering black youth, and the efforts to make it blue state thing or a red state thing are minor and rather silly issues. When politicians point out that it’s violent crime in the black community, they aren’t wrong. Pointing out that it’s disproportionately a black community problem isn’t racist.

Within those compartments, however, blacks kill other blacks roughly six times more frequently on a per capita basis than whites kill other whites.
That compartmentalization also costs Democrats elections. Too many Democrats crammed into one district means they can’t win adjacent districts.

Instead of removing my text and replacing it with [Deleted], as has traditionally been done before, this time it was just a stealth-edit. The whole thing, memory-holed.
For the record, I previously refuted that silly link here.
In that prior commentary I pointed out that one data point used by the authors was sourced from the FBI, but the authors otherwise ignored readily available FBI data so that they could substitute their own cherry-picked work. I also said some not-very-nice things about the political leadership in Baltimore. Most importantly, I pointed out that the authors schemed to leave Illinois off its list of the Top Ten murder states.

The reason for the similarity is that the “usual suspects” are looking at the same data I am, YLB. We make the same calculations and reach the same conclusion. It’s simple arithmetic, although apparently I need to do less of it in my head and more on paper.
The reason it’s the “usual suspects” is that we’re the ones willing to discuss it in public. Your side bemoans the effects it is having on your election results, in private. Hence trying to shift blame to governors instead of where it belongs.

So now Cornyn is back with the same tin cup, this time for a different kind of wildfire? Figures. Texans never change.

Noticed it seems Metro has not dieselize the entire trolleybus network for the weekend. It’s required for construction projects that might require partial de-energization of overhead wires. Personally, with the newer XT40 and XT60s, I think they should run them anyway between gaps, as long as it’s within battery range, even though Metro procures diesel via contract, not necessarily paying the spot price. When the University Bridge had it’s issues recently, some of the busses were diverted over Montlake, but the best test of using the batteries for emergency route deviation, had to be some 49 and 70 runs using I-5. On weekdays, more battery busses are entering service on the suburban routes. Although not sure about the future of the handful assigned out of Bellevue Base, as Rts 226 and 241 will be gone soon.
De-energizing the wires requires a request 15 days in advance, and a $1000 deposit, probably for the Overtime by the Line crews. Shutting the system down isn’t done from the power distribution center. I listened to it on the scanner once. It requires locking out the affected substations and specific line segments. If the request requires Central or Broad Street to be shut down, I can see a requirement for network-wide motorization., those two cover Downtown Seattle and Belltown, and a few neighboring sections of the network, with all routes except 44 affected. Got curious about the neighborhood rectifier substations as the trolley routes get further away from the Downtown hub. Turns out, hidden in plain sight. My favorite is one I’ve passed by all the time and didn’t know, Letitia Ave. It’s inside the confines of a sewage/ storm water pump station just off Rainier Ave. The only signs that it’s there are the transformer/insulator on the pole, and a cable leading to the substation gear.

@67 Worth noting is that while calling Stephen Colbert’s film crew insurrectionists, Tucker Carlson seemed to admit that Jan. 6 was an insurrection:
“Last night, producers from Stephen Colbert’s show on CBS committed insurrection at the United States Capitol,” Carlson claimed on his show. “It’s exactly like what happened on Jan 6., so we’ll take a close look at what the punishments are,” Carlson told his viewers.

Well, if Colbert and his crew are insurrectionists, and what they did is exactly like what happened on Jan. 6, then are the Jan. 6 rioters insurrectionists, too?

70,
Of course he’s been stupid about a great many things before.
But really, if he were not intending to run, if he really had no intention of running at all, then he’d be operating entirely differently right now.
For one thing, if pretending to be preparing another run were all just part of the extended grift, and there really was no campaign in his future, then all the finance laws that otherwise restrict a candidate would not apply to him, now or later. Trump will happily say whatever he needs to say in order to get drooling capillary farms like Degen to become excited and order hats, flags, attend rallies, or donate to fake “legal funds”. So even though Trump is teasing it, he hasn’t yet crossed the line that would invoke financial disclosures and restrictions. He remains free to raise unlimited sums without the threat of ever having to disclose but only if he stays in bounds. If he really were not running, there would be no boundaries at all. And he’d be lying right now.
He also would not be quite so strategic about endorsements and lining up vassals. He knows precisely which states he will lose in 2024 that will keep him from winning the electoral college. So he’s been exceptionally careful, and targeted in most of his campaigning for off year and midterm candidates. He’s trying to put people in positions where they can do him the most good when he loses in November of 2024. Again, if it wall just about the money, he’d be doing it all completely differently. For one thing, he’d get behind fuckers like Fat Midget and Rick Scott more. He’d be less concerned about payback and more concerned about getting paid.
He’d also be fucking around a whole lot more with foreign money, especially Putin’s money. If he were not preparing to run again he simply wouldn’t need a phony SPAC. He be going directly into business with murderous commie dictators and fascist instead of doing it through intermediaries.
People have really got to stop fooling themselves about what’s going on. And that especially applies to fools clinging to the Trump Party by pretending that there is a “pivot”.
There is no pivot. Trump owns it. Trump owns them.
And Trump will be their nominee in 2024.

I’m at least reassured that some Trump Party voters recognize their potential peril now by admitting that Trump will run again.
But I fear that the mistake they will be making, as before, will be to assume that the peril is embodied in Trump himself. Trump is not the peril. Trump voters are the peril. Plain old rank-and-file Trump voters, MAGAts, COVIDiots, RamRanch Clownvoyers, Proud Boys, Patriot Prayer, the hundreds of MAGA nominees running in this election (and likely to win), the hundreds more MAGA incumbents in Congress, state legislatures, and Governor’s mansions nationwide, led by Tucker Carlson on the most widely viewed “news” program on television and attended to by his regular guests like Steve Bannon, Marjorie Neanderthal Barbie, Matt Pedophile, and the MILF Hooker from CO.
Until “conservatives” fix their own shit, they won’t free themselves of Trump. His control and his influence over the process and the base voters is too much. And it’s the people who prop him up that are the real peril. Cowards. Like Kevin McCarthy. It certainly won’t help to replace McCarthy with Stefanik. So when you watch that unfold next year, as it inevitably will, just understand that it is just these sorts of decisions that keep Trump as their permanent party overlord, and guarantee that Fat Midget can’t be the nominee.

Nobody has to take anybody at their word.
Watch what they do, not what they say.
Trump is running.
Clinton is not.
It’s self-explanatory to anyone paying any attention.
Trump is raising money every way he can without having to disclose or risk future disclosure. And he’s studiously careful about what he says. He’s preparing for a federal campaign in which his fund raising and some of his finances would be open to disclosure and limits. And he’s lining up endorsements and key surrogates in the midterms by supporting selected incumbents and key challengers. He’s holding regular events in places all across the country in front of crowds of voters, not crowds of donors. He’s working to keep his name in the media and in front of voters and candidates every day.
Clinton is doing absolutely none of that.
The peril to “conservatives” is not Trump. The peril is the Trump world populated by swooning Trump idiots. I can step outside my door and walk less than half a mile to find a “Trump Won” yard sign, flag, or bumper sticker. Start walking right now and you’ll die on the road looking for a “Hillary Won” anything. Conjuring up Clinton won’t help them. Trump fan girls is their existential problem. And it’s a problem that even “That Cunt” can’t solve.
Only “conservatives” can fix themselves.
And as Degen is amply demonstrating here, they simply are not equipped for the job. In two years when Trump clinches the Republican nomination Degen will switch his support just as quickly and effortlessly as he did in 2016. Nothing has changed. There is no pivot. There will be no pivot. The first step toward Trump recovery begins by admitting you have a Trump problem.

The bad service on the Class Is predate the Pandemic. It started when Wall Street corrupted a great idea on how to better utilize assets at a railroad. Ever since all Class Is except BNSF have fully embraced Precision Scheduled Railroading, service has suffered. At CN, where Hunter Harrison first implemented PSR, one idea for more efficient utilization of crews and rolling stock was to use different rates on different days. A shorter train doesn’t need as many locomotives. He was trying to fill out the lengths on days when the same train had less traffic. It devolved into mothballing surplus rolling stock and laying off employees, rather than aggressively go after more traffic. As a result when we had the supply chain issues, wasn’t easy to call off more crews from the Extra Boards, as in many cases, there weren’t any to spare.
Also, shippers want their delivery when they need it. A business up the street from where I work gets a few cuts of reeder cars delivered every few days. If BNSF said we got a train arriving in Balmer Yard(Interbay) Saturday and the yard crew can deliver the cars then, it won’t do Coastal Transportation any good, their ships sail for Alaska Friday Night, usually before or after rush hour(Ballard Bridge). Last deliveries by truck are usually on Thursday. Tge short lines and regionals tend to do better service, then again, they need every carload they can get.

Clinton lost ugly and, as she showed in October 2020, dishonestly and irresponsibly.
Clinton wondered aloud how she could win by 3 million votes nationwide and still lose. Trump wondered aloud how he could have a Pennsylvania landslide on election night and still lose. Neither of them wondered honestly.

As Treasury Sccretary she damaged her reputation last year by claiming publicly that inflation would be transitory, even though she argued privately to spend far less on those silly unneeded handouts.
She’s doing it again now, by claiming that the plummeting US economy and Fed actions not seen in 40 years won’t dump us into the shitter.
The price she will pay for being First Vegetable Joe Biden’s lapdog is irreparable reputational damage. Sounds about right.

Interesting note, while it’s true that there is a split among prominent Republicans over Greitens, it’s quite obvious it’s a “normie” Republican versus MAGA Republican split. And the MAGA Republicans are the ones who control the party from now through at least 2024. Guys like Graham, Rove, or Priebus are pretty irrelevant. Even if the only reason they oppose Greitens is the sexual violence and wife beatings. True-to-form MAGA fan girl cowards are unwilling to call Greitens out for his history of sexual torture and domestic violence. In the MAGA world dominated by the Orange Porn Daddy who pays pre-teens to jerk him off wearing Playtex gloves, those things are features, not bugs.
Watching Greitens win the Senate nom in MO is merely a preview of what will happen in the Presidential primary in 2024. Now is a good time for Degen to make his peace with it.

FYI: The ABA is a volunteer association with no jurisdiction or authority over the profession or practice of the law in the United States or its territories.
The ABA’s accreditation of “approved” graduate school academic programs in the law has been under challenge for decades because of acknowledged violations of the anti-trust provisions in the U.S.C. A consent decree was entered into in the early 2000s wherein the ABA’s Section on Legal Education and Admissions is monitored for compliance by the DOJ and the DOE. Exclusive reliance on the LSAT, as opposed to other performance measures such as the GRE, is one of the issues at stake in the anti-trust consent agreement. The ABA’s practice of only accrediting schools that exclusively rely on the LSAT is deemed out of compliance with the consent agreement.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
I don’t see what that has to do with the existential fear of white Republicans about The Great Replacement. But I do understand why all that argle-bargle was needed to distract. Otherwise a Republican might have to admit to the existence of bigotry.

I’d caution you not to lend any credibility to an idiot like Degen in any way. Remember, he also believed Trump. Still does, actually.
A summary intelligence report of illegally created audio tapes created by FBI agents under direct orders from the Director to destroy King specifically with “sex stuff” includes a handwritten annotation as follows:
“King looked on, laughed and offered advice.”
They had some amazing tech I guess way back in the olden Grandpa Simpson days. Audio tape recorders that could somehow also record a person’s identity, position within a room, and where they were looking. Cool stuff.
Too bad all of it was burned in a barrel and all the FBI agents involved are dead. I’m sure we can take Hoover’s word for it, though. /s

It’s absolutely true that people on the right are going way too far, including Greitens.
They’re really no worse than liberals calling Manchin a racist for standing up to the more idiotic members – I’m talking about you, Cori Bush – of his own party. And it’s definitely no worse than liberals following Sinema into a bathroom while video-recording her.
A Salem Media article I skimmed called Greiten’s ad fascist. As the definition of fascism shifts on a near-daily basis, I don’t know that it’s an accurate description, but I hope Greitens does not survive the primary.
Just as I hope that Sinema is re-elected in 2024. The assholes on the far-left and far-right deserve to lose.

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
IOKIYAR isn’t really the point.
The point is that MSM downplay mainstream “conservative” extremism and treat it with “oddball loner with a gun” framing. While they simultaneously concern-troll the fuck out of fringe-popular social media extremists on the left, treating them as if they represent mainstream Democrats and liberal think tanks.
This happens in part because the MSM have become disturbingly preoccupied with social media personalities in general, regardless of their often limited impact IRL The focus on social media in general is a reaction to loss of audience. But it also happens because MSM are devoted to a model of “balance-in-framing” in pursuit of the broadest possible audience. And that model favors “conflict” and “controversy” even where none really exists.
So despite nearly all the real life evidence of extremism growing very disproportionately on the right (rapid rise of right-wing paramilitaries and violent street gangs, growing and open defiance of public safety, increasingly routine and aggressive violent rhetoric online, in-person, and in official capacity, multiple, regular, routine violent attacks on government and civic institutions, and direct assaults on free speech and human rights), MSM cling to framing “growing extremism on both sides”.
Admitting and frankly discussing the lurch into extremism by American political “conservatives” is just not good for building audience and audience engagement. It’s not so much that the media are saying that it’s “okay” for Elise Stefanik or Donald Trump to promote paranoid delusions about “white peril”. It’s that they insist that somehow Shaun King cancels them out on an imaginary Scoreboard-In-The-Sky. And just to make sure it sticks, when they grudgingly decide to talk about rising domestic political terror in the U.S., instead of inviting expert groups like CSIS to take part in the conversation, they invite “controversial” social media personalities Taylor Lorenz or Matt Drudge.
Audience pandering favors the dumb. And what we know from careful study of voter file data is that Republican voters are consistently less educated, less capable of demonstrating critical thinking, and terribly misinformed, i.e. dumb.

As long as you choose to ignore the scholars’ acknowledgements that the King recordings exist and that the published accounts of them are correct, YLB. The scholarship is one of the things that differentiates the recordings of King from the Khalidi tape.
Another is that the MLK recordings are still hidden from the public ear by the government, while the Khalidi tape is hidden from the public eye/ear by a news organization, which doesn’t want people to know its contents for some reason.
There’s nothing about the existence of the Khalidi tape that is fantasy.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Behold!
The building of a scarecrow.
There are obviously “issues” with the electoral count act and a few other laws surrounding the presidential succession. As soon as we drive a sufficient number of Republicans out of government we need to address those statutory deficiencies. Prior generations of U.S. lawmakers just never would have imagined a major political party trying to overturn an election outcome this way. In retrospect, it’s hard to know what might have happened if Pence had given in to his party’s demands that day.
I’d like to imagine that the majority leadership would have had the wherewithal to go ahead and convene a joint session without the Trump party and his VP in attendance and then certified the EV count. But it’s pretty hard to imagine that taking place while a thousand weird-beards with spears and pipe-bombs were wilding on the floor of the House. And that’s pretty much the point.
Trump cut off National Guard support without his approval. Had Pence gone along with his party on the conspiracy, Trump would have declared any joint session “unlawful” and refused to protect the Congress at all. He obviously waited as long as he did to make sure that the conspirators had exhausted every opportunity to prevent the certification. Part of that meant polling Republicans in the House and Senate. They refused to back his play without Pence to take the lead (and the blame).
So there’s really no reason to think it wouldn’t have worked if Pence had gone along with his party. And it might still have worked if just a few more Senators had been willing to back Trump without Pence. Considering that they are people like Ted Cruz, that’s a fucking close call.

I’d tell you that there’s not very much leeway for federal judges to independently depart from the guidelines no matter how much a defendant or their attorney pisses them off.
Angeli pleaded guilty to a single felony count of violating 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2), and agreed to the prosecutor’s recommendation. The statutory range extends to 20 years. 3-1/2 years is probably the formulaic custodial sentence based upon the matrix of statutory considerations recommended to the judge by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. What these fuck sticks did is not a joke. It’s a serious big-boy felony with serious big-boy consequences. FAFO I guess.

Mr. Angeli was examined by qualified psychiatrists and found to be very aware, completely oriented to time and place, able to distinguish fantasy from reality, capable of comprehending and discussing complex issues involved in his defense, and entirely capable of understanding the charges against him and every step in the legal process.
The legal standards for diminished mental capacity do not incorporate wildly improbable, deeply deluded, firmly held beliefs.
Which may ultimately prove problematic for a great many Republicans in the coming years.
Some credible argument can be made that the obviously irrational Qanon type paranoia that now grips these people may raise obstacles in prosecuting crimes with complex intent requirements. Obstruction of an official proceeding has no such requirement. And Mr. Angeli never argued as part of his defense that he did not intend to interrupt the electoral vote count when he unlawfully entered the building. Quite the contrary. He admitted that it was his intent. Many of the other Trump supporters facing prosecution, including some of those not yet indicted, have been equally helpful to prosecutors by documenting their intent in social media posts, text messages, live streams, complex, Byzantine planning documents shared among top ranking officials, and emails to the wives of sitting Supreme Court Associate Justices.
That was very nice of them, I think.

Then he started talking about Qanon, the deep state and the rest of that kind of thing and it had all the same unhinged intensity. It was a religious compulsion with him..
That interview, you could just hear him as he spoke (it was on the interviewer’s speakerphone), hear him march into the tall weeds and keep marching and never leave.. It was his safe space..

I might not go that far. What a person convicted of a crime deserves isn’t really part of our system. Children with substantial cognitive and emotional delays, whose lives can only be described as prolonged horror are routinely deemed mentally competent, tried as adults, and subsequently given very lengthy sentences in very adult prisons. These are often complex cases with equally sympathetic victims whose lives have also been shattered. But it’s hard to find any kind of moral equilibrium in them.
From what I understand, and like nearly all of the Jan 6 defendants, Mr. Angeli had no such disadvantages or traumas prior to his crimes. It sounds like he had a stable and supportive family upbringing filled with encouragement. If I had to speculate I’d say he’s probably someone who suffers from a bit of narcissist/sociopath personality disorder (NPD/APD). He likes attention, he doesn’t regard others as fully human, and he isn’t too concerned about the people around him. I wouldn’t trust anything he says. Given time and the right opportunities he might have become a very successful investment broker or televangelist preacher.

Comparing the two maps, I think we can conclude once again that Degen is still an idiot. The two maps are very different. And it’s much more than just Deschutes being “added”.
I think a credible argument can be made that Deschutes county Democrats preferred a Deschutes county candidate. But Schrader didn’t even campaign there. He’s a terrible candidate who ran a terrible campaign and didn’t even seem to care if voters on the dry side voted for him. His campaign operated on the assumption that McLeod-Skinner would trail by significant margins in Multnomah, Clackamas, Linn, and Marion counties. And her margin in Deschutes would not be enough to close that assumed gap. The assumption was entirely wrong. McLeod-Skinner was competitive in every wet side county and won Multnomah by double digits.
Regardless of his politics, Schrader is a putz. He’s a bland, unimpressive, and completely inauthentic candidate. He offered primary voters no reason to vote for him other than force-of-habit and name familiarity. But his politics gave voters scant reason to vote for him either. He doesn’t represent them.
I wouldn’t go so far as to say Schrader’s primary loss is a template for how “conservative” Democrats lose their seats, since very few other “conservative” Democrats are as thoroughly detached as Schrader. FiveThirtyEight and Politico do not get the West Coast right. I’m not even sure they give a shit. In terms of campaign fundamentals and politics, Schrader lost his primary on the west side of the Cascades. And he lost because of dissatisfaction by a very broad ideological cross section of primary voters for diverse reasons. The common thread running through those reasons as I see it is that Schrader was consistently more attentive to donors than to voters.

Does that work for you, too?
The problems with this are so numerous I don’t know where to begin. But I’ll try.
1. Selling 3M only offsets your oil stock gain if you sell the oil stock, too. Otherwise selling 3M only converts your paper loss into a realized one.
2. Selling 3M to book the loss and then selling the oil stock so that the loss can be offset means you no longer own the oil stock and it’s “massive” gain.
3. Since you no longer own the oil stock, there’s nothing your heirs can “step-up” when you croak.
Are you keeping up so far, Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit? Because there is more:
4. By repurchasing 3M at a lower price after avoiding the wash rule period, you will, once again, own a dog stock.
Only in Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit’s world can he claim a “tax-free gain” by losing nearly $50/share on a stock purchase. The rest of us call that admitting defeat and booking a loss before moving on.

And there was no information, no statements, and record supporting it at that time. McCaw made it up to sound good. Even he knew it at the time, admitting mere seconds later, saying it was likely to be anywhere from 40 minutes to an hour that passed between the first children shot and the gunman finally being killed by a team led by BORTAC.
May 27: Texas DPS Dir – leading the investigation – says the shooter gained entry through a back door propped open by a teacher, despite surveillance video in his possession clearly showing that teacher responding to the approaching gunman by running inside, kicking the rock away from the door, and slamming it fully shit. Later, McCaw admits that the investigation showed the door lock was not functional at the time.
Today we learned that despite multiple consistent reports from DPS investigators that the entry team waited for keys to unlock the classroom doors along with tactical gear, breach equipment, and ballistic shields, we learn that they had all that and the doors were unlocked.

It’s stuns me sometimes how fundamentally ignorance about an important subject doesn’t prevent this kind of sweeping declaration. Yes, indeed. The Establishment Clause is actually in the Constitution. In the text. In the very first amendment to the Bill of Rights, etc.
Fucking moron. Even the dumbest illustrated comic book summary of The Bill of Rights explains the Establishment Clause. Separation of church and state was codified in the colonies (some) for as long as century before the convention.
Breathtaking stupidity.

It’s worth repeating. Bob, any time you feel useless, remember the Uvalde Police are more useless than you.

@300 He’s right. It was “iterated outside the Constitution.” It wasn’t in the Constitution, but was later tacked on as part of the Bill of Rights when it was brought to the Framers’ attention that they forgot to give us any rights.
And six conservative justices regard those guys as infallible and their handiwork as holy scripture.
I can hardly think of a better reason for packing the court.

@300
When I first read the ruling I thought it was a mistake, how can they blur (heck, remove) that line between church and state?
Then I thought a bit more about it and don’t think it is all that bad.
Just wait until the Mooslums and the Satan worshipers setup schools to take those good Christians tax money to teach and worship their god. The law will be changed when that happens.
Just watch.
RedReformed spews:
305. Why won’t they simply say the ruling only applies to Christian schools the way the framers and god intended it.
“But you’re not being fair and equal?”
Federal wing of the supreme Court “so what’s your point?”

They probably will say that, let them go on record and do it. Then watch Tucker’s Replacement Theory go into full effect.
Ppyrrhic victory at best.
Add in the anger about the Roe decision soon be be put out and watch it change.
Sucks to be them.

Behold the announcement of a Senate gun bill that Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit only last week proclaimed wouldn’t happen because of the GOP.
I don’t think that Schumer guy is GOP.

What a great day on the stock market, proof that there’s no issues.
Vicious Troll spews:
With the pending gun control legislation, the GOP gets to claim that it did something in an effort to reduce the number of mass shootings, and Democrats lose the ability to claim with any credibility that the GOP does nothing to reduce the number of mass shootings.
The Democrats can’t use gun violence, abortion, or J6 with any success this year.
At least they’ve still got the economy to brag about, and we’ll be well into recession by the time midterm voters make up their minds.
