Wonder what the sensitive secrets were, but expect them to be left out of the unredacted affidavit. Nuclear secrets are that sensitive. I mean, although 8th and 20th AF assets and their bases are known due to treaty obligations, The inner workings of the warheads the Minutemen, B-52 and B-2s carry, are secret for a reason. Prior to the Mar a Lago search, was more concerned about Trump getting his hands on the arsenal again, with the W76 mod 1’s low yield warhead, and the B61’s selective yield feature. Lower tge tield, might be used as a first resort.

It’s Over: Trump Will Be Indicted
According to Larry Tribe.
I’m still at maybe. For sure somebody is going to get indicted. Somebody, we don’t know who just yet, made a conscious, willful, knowing decision to defy a lawful subpoena, and withhold hundreds of highly classified documents in a basement closet in a private sex club. There will be criminal charges from that. But we don’t really know for sure how directly culpable Trump was. It is conceivable that his lawyers kept him completely in the dark, or at least enough in the dark that he was not fully aware that the law was being broken.
I think however that it’s pretty likely that the Attorney General is angry with Trump and Trump’s people about this. How that plays out in this case would seem to me to be a lot less caution about the political impacts, especially as Trump’s popularity in the GOP declines. That’s a mixed bag, as we are guaranteed that a whole bunch of newly minted Trumpaloompa idiots are heading to the House in a few months. So in reality Trump’s media access and political status will rise in the months ahead.
Either way, indicted or not, I’m still very confident Trump will run for president. And I’m equally confident that there is a very hard floor of support for him within the Republican party somewhere right around 30%. That’s going to make for a shitshow of a Republican primary no matter what.
I could not be more happy.

Low pay in Virginia leading cause of teacher shortage

The numbers are higher in the big urban and suburban districts, but the vacancies are often harder to fill in rural areas where there’s a much smaller pool of potential hires.
>> Few teachers want to deal with extra low pay and toxic ignorance of a rural district.

In 2021 we broke our rule about not renting to youngsters and rented to an early 20s couple expecting a baby. 15 months later the couple broke up, she moved out, and he moved his buddies and his 17 year-old sister (and her 18 month-old baby) in. The place isn’t trashed, yet, but the lease names specific people who are allowed to reside there and three of the four now there aren’t listed. They’ve been late on rent three of the last four months. I’ve told them to leave.
Rental RE has been a decent long-term investment, but it comes with either a requirement to manage, or a willingness to turn management over to others. We did the latter and didn’t like the result. We no longer wish to do the former.
Cashing out now. The rentals served their purpose. We’ll sell the last one in a couple of years.

Why, I do it again and again.”

One of Florida’s largest home insurance companies is leaving the state
https://www.wesh.com/article/united-property-casualty-insurance-leaving-florida/40992264
According to an investor presentation in May, UPC had over 185,000 policies in Florida as of March 31.
“All policyholders of UPC now will need to find new coverage because their coverage is not going to be renewed,” he said. “It’s a really scary situation right now for Florida homeowners because if this company fails, this will be the sixth this year.
This comes about a month after another insurance company, Bankers Insurance Group, announced it would be pulling out of Florida.
“The Florida private insurance market is collapsing,”
Homeowners insurance in Florida costs an average of $3,643 a year, well above the national average.
Florida homeowners pay an average of $1,648 per year for a policy with $250,000 in dwelling coverage, compared to the national average of $1,383 per year. However, with a predicted worse-than-average 2022 hurricane season, carriers exiting the state and fraudulent litigation running rampant, rates could increase and homeowners could have a harder time finding coverage. For Washington homeowners, the average cost of homeowners insurance is $863 per year, or about $72 per month, for $250,000 in dwelling coverage.
Homeowners who live in especially vulnerable areas may not be able to get insurance at all.
Remember that many home mortgages require the homeowner to carry a certain level of insurance. If people can’t replace their insurance in 30 days, they may have to sell the house before the bank calls in the mortgage. Good luck with that if buyers can’t get affordable insurance either.

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
The two small words are keenly important to the future of the Violent Republican Party.
In large part because just about the only appeal the party has to offer to a younger voter has been the myth of strength and moral rectitude. Simple minded, emotionally underdeveloped people who are uncomfortable with relativism, nuance, or moral complexity have been drawn to “conservatism” in a post-modern world of uncertainty. “Conservatism” has promised simple, easy answers to morally complex challenges.
“Follow tradition.” “Read the Bible.” “Be like your Grandfather.” “The Good Old Days.” “Life begins at conception.” “Respect authority.” “The West Is The Best.” “Fuck Your Feelings.” Simple phrases, guides, and dubious aphorisms provide a lazy shortcut around the moral and ethical thickets that define human existence. For youth generations bombarded with news, media, gossip, promotion, and endless distraction the “conservative” myth of strength and moral rectitude eliminates an entire realm of complex decision making and boils it all down to catch phrases and grievances.

Trump bragged about rape to a busload of strangers, coordinated with Russian spies to flood social media with campaign smears, conspired with Rudy Giuliani to extort Ukraine for a smear job on his chief political rival, sent a pipe-bomb mob to assassinate his own Vice President, and sold the CIA NOC list to Putin.
