I went home fairly early after Drinking Liberally last night. Nonetheless, I am feeling tired. So instead of a coherent post, I am just going to do the half-sleep on public transit thing. Talk among yourselves.

    In the most recent polling since new withholding rules went into effect, only one third of respondants say they saw any increase in their takehome pay. And of those, only one third described the reported increase as making any difference to them.

    A third of a third. What’s that again?

    2,
    Most remarkable is that a reliable percentage of low income, less educated, aggrieved, white working class, “conservative” voters will celebrate Boob’s good fortune as if it were their own.

    But then again, these are the very same voters who traded away their patriotism and allegiance to the world’s greatest constitutional republic to a handful of pimply Moldovan teenagers in exchange for the freedom to tell racist jokes down at the cafe again and to yell at brown people in the grocery line.

    My wife’s PERS 1 monthly payment – the deposit into our account – went up 4.7%. Since we did not select the COLA option we assume the increase was due to the difference in Federal withholding tax on that payment, which was recalculated after the tax law went into effect. We didn’t touch anything.

    The other change is in how I treat capital gains. There was once a substantial difference in the tax rate between short-term and long-term gains, and I would trade long-dated options because of it. The difference has shrunk to the point that it’s more profitable to trade short-dated options. With all of the wild swings in the market since early February this has been a very lucrative shift in how I invest.

    So I guess a third of a third has worked out pretty well at our end. Unlike Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit, I can afford my own digital copy of Barron’s.

    Don’t be so quick @ 1 to disregard the benefits of the new tax law. Lots of things might be taken out of a paycheck prior to net. Health insurance premiums, for instance.

    The new tax law will directly cut the taxes of nearly two-thirds of households this year, according to a new analysis released Wednesday by the nonprofit Tax Policy Center.

    The think tank found the individual provisions of the law signed by President Trump in December will reduce taxes for 65 percent of households in 2018, while raising the tax bills of 6 percent.

    Those numbers relate just to what people will pay on their individual taxes. Wednesday’s report differs from previous analyses because they have also included the effects of the changes the law made to business taxes or the individual mandate of the Affordable Care Act, allowing for a clearer sense of how the tax cuts should affect take-home pay.

    @5 “My wife’s PERS 1 monthly payment – the deposit into our account – went up 4.7%. Since we did not select the COLA option we assume the increase was due to the difference in Federal withholding tax on that payment, which was recalculated after the tax law went into effect. We didn’t touch anything.”

    This is easy to factcheck, because the Rabbit Burrow receives two PERS 1 monthly payments without COLA options. Mine went up 2.04%, and Mrs. Rabbit’s 1.28%, this difference probably being due to a minor decline in our health insurance premium, which comes out of my pension for both of us.

    Since the PERS 1 withholding rules are the same for everyone, somebody’s making shit up, and I doubt it’s me.

    Boob probably computes his day trading profits the same way he calculates his tax cut savings. It’s called doctor math, and it works especially well for Medicare billings.

    It’s not lost on me that the Rabbit family’s savings from the GOP’s Billionaire Tax Cut amount to less than one year’s inflation. A year from now, that “tax cut” will have completely disappeared into higher prices, while this is the only withholding reduction we’ll ever see. From 2019 on, our pensions’ spending power will do nothing but go down. So, no, I’m not impressed; and I’m not indulging in an orgy of celebratory spending, either.

    Also, withholding isn’t the same as taxes. I remember when some Republican president or other tried to stimulate the economy by ordering the IRS to lower the withholding schedules when there was no actual tax cut, and the gullibles went out and spent the difference thinking it was theirs and then got socked for it at tax time.

    Dumbfuck @ 7

    PERS withholding rules might be the same for everyone but incomes aren’t, and neither are the number of claimed exemptions.

    By now you should know not to try to compare your income with those of others, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. And yet you continue to make these moronic mistakes.

    If the tax law changes preferentially benefit the wealthy and if your wife’s check went up 1.28% while my wife’s check went up 4.7%, what that should tell you is that your wealth is lower than ours.

    No making up of shit required to establish that disparity, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. You spent a career as a failed lawyer, hiding from reality in a government job. And despite your miserably small retirement income level, it nonetheless seems that the Trump tax law has increased your take-home @ 7.

    Thanks for playing, as well as for making my point, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit.

    @12 Oh, okay, maybe if she has a 5-figure monthly pension from some bullshit “administrator” job, because after all this tax cut was designed to benefit the well-off and filthy rich, but the worker bees who did the actual work in her shop aren’t seeing a 4.7% increase in their take-home pension pay.

  15. 15

    @12 “You spent a career … hiding from reality in a government job.”

    I’m really curious how your missus wangled a PERS 1 pension without hiding from reality in a government job. I want to know how you pulled that off.

    @17 Yep, here we are, President Read My Lips raised their taxes, then gave ’em a withholding cut by taking it out of their refunds. You wouldn’t happen to remember how well that worked for him, would you?

    “The 1986 overhaul ordered the Treasury Department to devise a more accurate withholding system that would slash the number of people getting refunds each year. ‘You can kiss your tax refund goodbye, and with it the summer vacations, new refrigerators and fall wardrobes it has paid for,’ The Washington Post reported in April 1987.

    “But the revised W-4 form the agency produced was so complicated that it became hugely unpopular and was dropped.

    “A few years later, Bush, then running for reelection, ordered the government to withhold less from paychecks in hopes of boosting the economy.

    “But many people didn’t want the extra money if it meant losing their refunds, and within a few years, refunds had returned to previous levels.”

    5, 6, pleading, etc.,
    If among taxpayers PornHub Party voters are increasingly concentrated among retirees and low wage slaves, and if only nine percent of taxpayers perceive any benefit from the billionaire cut, how exactly is mewling about a pay stub going to repair the broken expectation?

    Our perception of RyanCut is entirely irrelevant.* We’re a bunch of dirty hippie socialists who will never vote for a Roypublican no matter what. But for the trailer park army that the PornHub Party depends upon I guess I don’t see how waiving your wife’s paystub and screaming “4.7% moterfuckers!” is going to be as inspiring as “Cook my fucking burrito, you filthy Greaser!”

    Demorat Pornstar Party Of Death News Update– Let Them Die Demorats Fail In House Vote, 35 Demorats Break With Deathmarch Pelosi

    Headline–
    House passes right-to-try on second try
    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/03/21/drugs-right-to-try-congress-434677

    Snip–
    The House of Representatives passed on party lines Wednesday evening a bill designed to let very sick patients request access to experimental medicines without government oversight.

    The passage of the bill, known as right-to-try, is a big victory for the small libertarian think tank that crafted the proposal — and for a White House that has vigorously campaigned for the law. And it comes one week after Republicans failed to pass a similar measure through an expedited process that needed two-thirds support from the chamber.

    The bill passed by a vote of 267-149 with 35 Democrats in favor and two Republicans against. It now heads to the Senate, which passed a slightly different version of the legislation last summer. With a final law all but assured, health policy advocates [i.e.,DemoratsForDeath] who have vigorously opposed the idea are now looking toward the broader anti-regulatory health agenda being pushed by the Goldwater Institute.

    It’s worth taking a close look at the sentencing memorandum for Alex Van Der Zwaan that Mueller’s team filed with the DC for the DC yesterday. Even though he is pleading out, Mueller wants him to do serious time and is arguing that he deserves no credit at all for agreeing to a plea.

    Of particular interest to me are specifics about Van Der Zwaan’s lying to the Special Counsel’s Office during his interviews regarding Manafort, Gates, and their Russian and Ukranian clients. The memorandum reveals that, among other things, Van Der Zwaan was caught lying about not only the existence of email and telephone contacts during the campaign but also the content of those emails and telephone conversations.

    That would tend to suggest that the FBI collected some pretty wide ranging PRISM product from that period of of the campaign from more U.S. based individuals than just Paul Manafort. Once they connected Manafort to Tymoshenko they must have been obtaining additional warrants for people connected to Manafort.
    What was Manafort’s job title at the time again?

    Not so sure about that. Sure, they might have their hackles up, but every mass shooting brings some of that out. The endless comparisons of number of people killed in Chicago, teens killed while texting and driving, yadda, yadda, yadda.

    What is vastly different this time is the POTUS has been demonstrating that it is OK to ditch any sense of decorum and now kids are fair game. The rabid gun nutters (I have a few friends that fall into that category) are finally ditching any and all restraint, not because they are scared, it is because they now can and feel emboldened and empowered by a POTUS that is leading the way on being an unhinged dickhead to everybody that he disagrees with. Trump is a disgrace to the position of POTUS.

    @23 Libertarians like the Kochs don’t want any government regulation. To them, “freedom” means advertisers can lie to you, telemarketers can harass you, manufacturers can sell you defective and dangerous products, marketers and lenders can defraud you, butcher shops can sell you diseased and rotten meat, grocers can sell you “organic” produce that’s been sprayed with unregulated pesticides, and farmers and processing plants can torture livestock. Oh, and anyone who wants to call himself a “pharmaceutical company” can bottle motor oil and sell it as a cure for every known form of cancer. If libertarians get their way, we’re going to have a lot of dead hillbillies.

    Another way to look at Koch brothers support for access to experimental medicines without government oversight.
    The Koch brothers are damn old, I’m sure they would like the drug companies to hurry up and find something, anything, that would extend their lives. It is much better to experiment on the proles and weed out the really toxic stuff before they try it.

    By now we all know Michael Cohen, Donald J. Trump’s long time personal lawyer is dumb as fuck. He pretty much shit the legal bed on the whole Essential Conultant’s LLC hush money thing. But I honestly thought the guy might have turned the corner when he finally shut the fuck up about it and hired another lawyer to both represent him and do all the talking. It turns out he may not be the dumbest fucking lawyer in New York after all. Unless hiring the dumbest fucking lawyer in New York to represent you automatically makes you the dumbest fucking lawyer in New York?

    Cohen’s lawyer spent Wednesday night on CNN openly challenging Cohen for the title, when he clearly and repeatedly insisted that Cohen never involved his client Trump in any way in any part of the NDA with the sticky porno lady.

    The president was not aware of the agreement. At least Michael Cohen never told him about the agreement, I can tell you that. […] He wasn’t told about it. Michael Cohen left the option open, that’s why he left that signature line, the option open to go to him. He chose not to. He chose to bind the LLC, EC, LLC, and Stormy Daniels into the contract.

    I’ll pause here while you clean up the spit take.
    …….
    It helps to read the NDA agreement. But don’t worry. I already did that for you. And since Cohen wrote it, I’m gonna assume he did too. But at this point I’m not actually convinced that Cohen’s lawyer has read it yet. But hey! Who has time, when you spend all day in makeup before going on television to make yourself look like The Dumbest Lawyer in New York?

    So if Mr. Cohen never informed Donald J. Trump about this little NDA thingee he was doing with the sticky porno lady, then of course there can be no contract between Donald J. Trump and the sticky porno lady. That’s a really well established… um… common sense contract law thing. I promise. And though you don’t need to read the NDA, if you did you’d see that there’s all kinds of language in it that seeks to bind Donald J. Trump to perform under the agreement. There is an entire section of the document devoted to that purpose. But if Mr. Safety School, Esq. never even informed DJT of the existence of the NDA, much less gave him the opportunity to sign his agreement to it (in the signature blanks conveniently provided in the document) then Mr. DJT can not be bound by the agreement. And if a performing party cannot be bound the agreement is invalid.

    Can it get worse? Yes, of course! Because not only did Cohen (if we are to believe his lawyer) fail to bind his client to the agreement, but he made his client (the guy who was never even informed of the existence of the contract, and certainly not bound by it) the only party able to seek remedies for violations of the contract.

    I honestly find myself struggling to focus on the dumbfuckery involved here because there’s just so much of it. Pointing out fatal flaws in this thing could consume a lifetime. It’s hard to believe anyone could fuck up this much without somebody going to jail or getting disbarred. But the incompetence is so thick and rich I’m not sure anyone could ever cut a straight line through it to go from indictment to conviction. We’ll see.

    Either way, it looks pretty certain that the sticky porno lady is going to get to tell her story and release her “letters, agreements, documents, audio or Images recordings, electronic data, and photographs, canvas art, paper art, or art in any other form on any media” sooner rather than later.

  50. 50

    @49 You almost have to be a lawyer yourself to fully appreciate how utterly absurd a legal position Cohen & Friends are in, unless Cohen has a power of attorney authorizing him to enter into these sorts of agreements on Trump’s behalf tucked away somewhere, in which case you’d probably want to examine its date under a microscope looking for scrape marks.

  51. 51

    50,
    If he’s got some open ended, unlimited POA then it should have been included as an exhibit to the NDA. The fact that it was not doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Just another fuckup by Mr. Safety School, Esq. But it would be yet another fatal flaw in the agreement. I sense a bit of impatience from Avenatti at this point. He may be worried that the story will grow cool if the process goes on too long. He’s seeking to depose Cohen and Trump. But he has to dispose of the arbitration clause first. So he has to wait for Cohen to petition the court to move the case to arbitration. If the Ct denies Cohen’s petition then he can move for deps and things will get sexy again.

    Demorat Pornstar Party Of Death “Right To Try” Update– Demorats Have A History Of Letting Them Die

    Headline-

    California Governor Denies Terminally Ill Access to Potentially Life-Saving Drugs
    Veto follows Jerry Brown’s signing assisted suicide legislation
    http://freebeacon.com/issues/c.....ing-drugs/

    Snip-
    Californians who are terminally ill will not be able to access drugs with the potential to save or prolong their lives as a result of Gov. Jerry Brown’s veto of the Right to Try Act on Sunday.

    AB 159, the California Right to Try Act, passed the state assembly and senate with overwhelming bipartisan support.

    “It’s disappointing that Governor Brown couldn’t see the need to allow Californians the right to fight to save their own lives,” said Assemblyman Ian Calderon (D., Whittier), who sponsored the legislation. “Both Democrats and Republicans wanted this for our California’s terminally ill.”

    In his veto message Brown wrote that “Patients with life-threatening conditions should be able to try experimental drugs, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s compassion use program allows this to happen.”

    “Before authorizing an alternative state pathway, we should give this federal expedited process a chance to work,” Brown wrote.

    However, the expedited process by the FDA has not yet been put in place.

    “Time is the one thing our terminally ill don’t have,” said Calderon. “I wish he would have given terminally ill Californians the hope of having more time to spend with their families by allowing them expedited access to potentially life-saving drugs.”

    Brown’s veto of the act was a disappointment to many, including one firefighter suffering from ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

    “I am very disappointed in Governor Brown’s devastating veto of The Right to Try bill. This allows the FDA to retain control over my ability to save my own life while I still have time,” said Mike DeBartoli, a former Sacramento firefighter suffering from ALS.

    “Terminal patients in California now have no possibility of hope to prolong their lives,” DeBartoli said.

    The Right to Try, some version of which has been adopted in 24 states, was envisioned by the Goldwater Institute, a public policy think tank based in Phoenix.

    “Governor Brown has deprived Californians of the right to try to save their lives when their mortality hangs in the balance. We hope that the legislature will work together in a bipartisan effort to override Governor Brown’s veto,” said Kurt Altman, director of national affairs and special counsel at the institute.

    Brown’s veto of the Right to Try comes a week after he signed into law a bill allowing terminally ill Californians access to drugs to expedite their deaths. The End of Life Act will go into effect next year.

    “When Governor Brown signed a “Right to Die” law just days ago, he said ‘I do not know what I would do if I were dying in prolonged and excruciating pain. I am certain, however, that it would be a comfort to be able to consider the options afforded by this bill. And I wouldn’t deny that right to others.’ It’s ironic that Governor Brown supports the right to die but not the right to try to live,” said Altman.

    Right To Try is limited to patients with a terminal disease who have exhausted all government-approved treatment options and who cannot enroll in a clinical trial. Medications available under the law must have successfully completed basic safety testing and be a part of the FDA’s ongoing approval process.

  58. 58

    Why “right to try” is controversial:

    “But opponents said the bill undermines the Food and Drug Administration’s existing compassionate use program while giving false hope to dying patients. ‘If this is such a patient-centered bill, then why does every major patient-centered group oppose it?’ asked Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J.”

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2018/03/21/house-passes-controversial-right-try-legislation-terminally-ill-patients/448117002/

    “Under a ‘right-to-try’ bill, the process is almost exactly the same, except the FDA is removed from the equation …. Without that federal oversight … there is a greater risk of fraud and abuse at the expense of patients.”

    https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/3/13/17113690/right-to-try-laws-congress

    The devil is in the details, but the details don’t matter to people who don’t think. The fact patient advocates oppose it should be a great big red flag.

    David Koch has had prostate cancer for 26 years. Being as he’s still alive and rich enough to do more or less whatever he wants, he’s probably submitted to more than a few unusual therapies. If he was fortunate enough to have one of ’em work, more power to him–or maybe he’s simply been blessed with an exceptionally robust constitution. Further kudos to him for donating close to half a billion dollars to legitimate research institutions–and being a cancer survivor myself I’m saying this with all sincerity. On the other side of the coin, how many people have perished before their time because they rejected conventional treatments and spent their precious time and money on stuff like Laetrile, witch doctors or the Kochs’ own uncle’s discredited “antitoxins”? There’s some kind of balance between well-intended innovation and exploiting the desperate.

    Judge Stephen Reinhardt, a judge on the San Francisco-based 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and a champion of liberal causes on the court, died Thursday at the age of 87.

    A court spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that Reinhardt was at a dermatologist’s office when he died unexpectedly Thursday afternoon.

    If you did a better job wiping you wouldn’t need that taint lifted.

    I don’t see a reason for libbie joy @ 54 that Sessions won’t at present time appoint special counsel to investigate McCabe, FISA, etc.

    That work has already been done by the OIG. Since the OIG’s findings were enough to get McCabe fired without going outside existing government resources, they’ll likely be enough to get McCabe prosecuted by existing government resources, too.

    That resource is US Attorney John Huber, first appointed by Barack Obama. If the OIG’s findings were enough to get McCabe fired, they’re likely enough to get him indicted as well. After all, a grand jury has already been seated:

    Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit misunderstands so much. I guess I do see a reason for his joy. It’s his misunderstanding of this, as well.

    69,
    I’ll have to defer to this troll’s obviously superior expertise and experience at telling women to shut up and the reasons for doing so.

    How far the mighty have fallen.

    Cut price Clinton: Hillary sports a cast on her arm as she gives speech at Rutgers for $25k when she normally charges six figures – and it’s $7,000 LESS than Jersey Shore’s Snooki got

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new.....5-000.html

    And Snooki was paid $32k in 2011 dollars.

    To be fair, no one really wants to see Hillary’s camel toe.

    http://critdick.com/2010/08/th.....oe-parade/

    Hillary’s become so useless that even the BernieBros can’t get up the energy to mobilize against her anymore.

    Russia didn’t give us Trump. Y’all HA libbies who thought Hillary Clinton was a good idea gave us Trump.

    One day perhaps even Steve will cease denying it.

    Oh, look! A GoFundMe page.

    It’s very well funded. Must be all those peeps stepping forward to help the poor family of Stephon Clark.

    Er, no. My bad.

    It’s to help out another libbie felon.

    Ex-FBI deputy McCabe’s online legal defense fund nears $300,000 in hours

    If you go to the actual site

    https://www.gofundme.com/andrewmccabelegaldefensefund

    you find this note:

    Please note: Mr. McCabe and his team are working to gain clarity around the lasting impact his firing – 26 hours before his planned retirement – will have on the pension and healthcare benefits he earned over his two decades of service to the FBI. However, no funds raised for the Andrew McCabe Legal Defense Fund will be used for anything beyond his defense of the allegations against him.

    This, of course, means that when he’s indicted, he’ll use libbie-donated money to try to beat the rap.

    Maybe McAuliffe can send some cash McCabe’s way again. And surely Hillary will do him a solid. After all, he did so much for her. All for naught, but still…

    @59 “Balance” is not among the things rightwingers do well.

    Meanwhile, what are the chances someone who believes Obama is a Kenya-born Muslim and Sandy Hook is a hoax is going to make intelligent treatment choices? But, what the heck, it’s their bodies; and if they stop telling women what to do with their bodies, I won’t tell them what to do with theirs.

    @84 Yeah, right, Doctor. Trump is our fault because we couldn’t save America from your dumbfuckery.

    What a dumbfuck.

    uniquely awful

    From the people who brought you “locker room talk”, “Stormy”, “Shitholes”, $80,000 trips to Kentucky, EB5 vsa auctions, Russian election tampering, Russian NRA, pay-to-play, PeePee tapes, Dick pics, midterm approval below 45%, and a 20% average swing in open seats.

    @84 Hate to tell you this, doc, but you’re worse than us. See #93 for explanation. Also, checked your approval rating lately?

  93. 93

    @84 When Putin surveyed the American political landscape to see who was stupid enough to be played by him in his quest to cause harm to our nation, he didn’t choose Hillary, the Democrats, the ACLU and me. It was Trump, Republicans, the NRA and you.

    You know why he chose you, don’t you? It was because you’re a dumbfuck.

    “Maybe someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools.”

    Now watch stooooooooooooooopid solution shitstain steve call these TRUTHS hate and Newt Hoenikker agree like the bobble headed doll he is!

    Of course the Oregon Moron hillbilly @66 missed the point above big time. The latest missed point is useful idiot libtard (remember Cindy Sheehan) anti-gun white student with a > 4.1 GPA not getting into four prestigious California libtard schools because he is a white man. The hillbilly always misses the main point! Probably a less qualified female illegal alien got his spot. That is the point! Being a white libtard means nuthin to libtards running California universities these days!

    Butt wait… One of them will “realize their mistake” and cause him to be accepted! A clerical error mistake they will say!

    Anti- white Libtards are against all white men because y’all are privileged mayonnaise monster lookin ASS crackers as the lady claimed! Y’all work against yourselves and y’all never comprehend the effect of your positions!

    In fact, libtard white men run this blog! Some may be mayonnaise monster lookin ASS crackers! Many who put forth their putrid thoughts in pixels are!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! EPIC and DAYUM FUNNY too!

    Behold the Loon championing The Cause at 95.

    Pity all the poor white men. Nobody to stand up for them and defend their rights and privileges except some unhinged, self loathing, Help Desker and a failing commie dictator.

    Can white men survive without Pooosey Grappink, Bump Stocks and “legacy”? Can The Hoover Institute continue to build its endowment without enough white men at Stanford? Who will ensure their strategic supply of mayonaise and John Mayer albums? It’s a wonder the Loon gers any sleep with such burdens.

    @95

    Maybe those schools are interested in something called diversity in their student population?

    Face it Piddles, you wouldn’t have been admitted to any of those schools unless you, “checked the box.”

  100. 100

    98,
    I don’t think those institutions grant credentials in “Help Desk”.
