So it looks like everyone is running for Seattle mayor now that Murray is perceived (fairly or not) as damaged goods. I have decided to sit it out, so I think that makes me the only Seattle citizen not to run. Enjoy the debates where half a million people get on stage. Seriously though, McGinn got in the other day, Cary Moon is getting in the race. There are probably many more to come.

    Miami Republican Sen. Frank Artiles dropped the n-word to a pair of African-American colleagues in private conversation Monday night — after calling one of them a “fucking asshole,” a “bitch” and a “girl,” the two senators said.
    …
    Artiles later told Gibson and Thurston that he’d used the word “niggas,” suggesting the slang term was not meant to be insulting,

    “Why can’t I use the word Niggas? Those Darkies in the hipty hop records say it all the time? I had no idea it was offensive and it’s the only time in my life I used it. I blame alcohol. I meant niggas in the GOOD way!” Sen. Artiles, or words to that effecct

    Meanwhile, Trump steals yet another page from Obama’s playbook:

    Secretary of State Rex Tillerson certified on Tuesday evening that Iran is complying with the terms of former President Barack Obama’s historic deal to roll back its nuclear program.
    The certification, made to Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), extends sanctions relief to Iran.

    “The move resulted in speculation [that] President Donald Trump’s administration is trying to distance itself from Trump’s hostile campaign-trail rhetoric on the deal. … In an April 2016 campaign speech, Trump claimed that Iran had already violated the deal, immediately after Obama had made it.”

    https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/04/19/trump-administration-certifies-iran-complying-with-nuclear-deal/22046146/

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: Obama was right, Trump was wrong, but don’t expect any Republican to admit it. Meanwhile, Trump supporters are left dangling in the wind again.

    Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), who chairs the House Oversight Committee, announced today he won’t seek reelection. First elected to the House in 2008, Chaffetz said he has no health issues and believes he would be reelected, but wants to return to the private sector. He did not rule out returning to politics in the future.* Prior to entering politics, Chaffetz worked in the “multilevel marketing” industry, which some people consider a racket. Chaffetz’ father at one time was married to Michael Dukakis’ present wife, who is the mother of Chaffetz’ older half-brother.

    * Could this mean he’s fixing to challenge Trump in the 2020 primaries? He didn’t drop such hints; that’s just my rabbit nose twitching in the wind. It’s no secret that Chaffetz isn’t a Trump admirer; he didn’t endorse Trump until the late stages of the campaign, and then only reluctantly.

    “A Russian government think tank controlled by Vladimir Putin developed a plan to swing the 2016 U.S. presidential election to Donald Trump and undermine voters’ faith in the American electoral system, three current and four former U.S. officials told Reuters.

    They described two confidential documents from the think tank as providing the framework and rationale for what U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded was an intensive effort by Russia to interfere with the Nov. 8 election.

    U.S. intelligence officials acquired the documents, which were prepared by the Moscow-based Russian Institute for Strategic Studies, after the election. The institute is run by retired senior Russian foreign intelligence officials appointed by Putin’s office.”

    Here’s Five Thirty Eight’s take on the Georgia special election:

    1. Ossoff did 2% better than the pre-election polls.
    2. No pre-election poll had him getting 50%.
    3. He did 5% to 8% better than standard trend analysis suggests a Democrat should do in that district.

    So, you can’t say he underperformed. Well, you can try, but that’s bullshit.

    4. The GOP goes into the runoff no better than tied.
    5. Bigger picture, Republicans have to defend 48 seats in 2018 that are bluer than Georgia Dist. 6. Democrats need only 24 for a majority.

    https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/5-takeaways-from-the-georgia-6-special-election-results/

    And then there’s this little tidbit from Nate Silver: “The midterms will probably be rough for Donald Trump and Republicans next year. Here’s [what] the Georgia special election on Tuesday — and the one in Kansas last week — serve to demonstrate: Trump can’t defy gravity. These were bad results for Republicans.”

    https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/trump-probably-wont-defy-midterm-gravity/

    And then there’s this:

    “[The] enthusiasm gap for Trump among better-educated Trump voters partly explains why Republicans — most prominently the president — are keeping an eye on the special election today in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District, [which] has one of the highest levels of educational attainment in the country[.]”

    When you add up all the candidates with R after their name you don’t get 51% in a district where under 60% for the GOP is not in generational memory.

    The trope that GOP voters show up in greater numbers than Democrats in primaries is a huge problem for the GOP.

    The GOP can probably pull it off but it’s going to be very expensive and embarrassing. Then again DerTrumper can do some new damn fool thing that makes moderate Rs stay home.

    Earning Less Than Their Wives Makes U.S. Men More Partisan

    While men with strong political views seem to react to a threat to their gender role by doubling down on their political and social attitudes, it seems that not all men have the same conceptions of masculinity; perhaps for liberal men, the shock of losing relative income has led these men to conclude that they can’t define themselves through traditionally masculine roles, and led them to rebel against them as best they can.

    @90 I might looking at a map and doing a little bit of review of French history. France has been so deep into North Africa and the middle east for a very long time. Of course Algeria was a French Department. Thus those citizens of Algeria are as French as any French man or woman in Paris. History and geography bind France and North Africa together, and then other past endeavors bind France to the middle east. And for France it’s not just about the oil. There is no practical way of separation they are bound to interact with the Middle East and the Middle East with them. Perhaps Maria Le Penn if she is elected will finish the job of the loss of the Department Algiers, and try to separate France from the middle east as you suggest. It won’t work and it will not make France or any other nation in Europe safer. And the same goes for the US, and we are already in the game, though we might need to hesitate in helping out in places like Libya unless certain NATO clauses are activated. Yes the French have an air craft carrier but they will be happy to invite the US to the party. Then they can tell the natives upset with the French it’s the awful American’s doing this not us. Here try their McDonald’s food, and now how about some French wine and now some fraternity and brotherhood. And yes you can still join the French Foreign Legion.

    @102 Still I’m not too upset that an airline owned by 7 kingdoms is having to cut some flights. Even if they are the best in the world, they still operate as a monopoly and at the behest of 7 dynasties. It’s an opportunity for North Korea’s airline. They get rid of the bomb, get a few planes from Boeing, and pick up these routes, and become capitalists. Win for everyone. Though you better like kimchee.

    @21 A carrier group off the Korean coast is not unusual. Still there is probably a flight of B-52’s and B2’s ready to roll should there be a missile launch. Just one will bomb North Korea back to the stone age. Perhaps a young ruler there should know of General Lemay. Though he maybe too busy executing his air defense officers with their anti aircraft guns.

    @28 Hey with ad revenue of a hundred and ten million they could have hired some talent to keep the talent happy, would have cost much less than the law suits. Still some feminist would blown the whistle.

    @42 RR as an attorney you would never infer a judge even one on their first day in court isn’t entitled to be a judge. The man is an associate justice on the Supreme Court other than having to be in charge of the Judges cafeteria and dealing with why the cookies are not the same he’s a judge on the court. Just because he asks the questions does not mean any of it will appear in the opinion. He gets to sit with the other judges and determine how the case goes. He may even write the majority or minority opinion. He’s been an appellate justice for a decade or more so he should have a concept how things work. He is on the court as an associate justice equal to the others and ready to do the job. Hey if they were all like Justice Thomas it would just be the attorneys talking. and if a justice asked a question that would be front page news. The justices will duke out the case in chambers with nary a law clerk leaking anything until the decision is read and published.
