So, Tim Burgess. Are you excited? This guy? (Seattle Times link, and he has changed some positions since then) The guy who wrote an excessive panhandling law so broad that it probably would have covered The Girl Scouts selling cookies on the street?

The new mayor already has work to do: Clean up Seattle’s corrupt mafia-like police union.
“The FBI is investigating allegations that Seattle police officers, with the help of the Seattle Police Officers’ Guild, may have engaged in intimidation and price- fixing while working lucrative off-duty jobs directing traffic at parking garages and construction sites.”

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
What Burgess describes and tends to believe is an idea of the “faith driven” voter that really only accounts for a very small percentage of the Hillbilly/Traitor/Klan voter base. Even among the overall general population of voters, most of whom are “EEENDEEEPENDUNCE”, it is a tiny sliver.
Think about the term itself: faith driven.
That implies on its face a voter whose decisions surrounding public policy, the contours of civic life, and choices among political candidates as being driven by an unyielding uncompromising adherence, absent all evidence to the contrary, in a belief system grounded in superstition and fantasy.
This suggests a few things right away. First and foremost would be a group of voters very open to being manipulated by demagogues. When your decisions about public policy are driven by faith, then certainly a very easy point of entry for persuasion would be that faith itself, since it is not tethered to any evidence based in objective reality. Authority within faith is not based on objective merit, nor discernible contribution to public life through accomplishment, but primarily through pure rhetoric itself and public perception arising from same. Thus anyone seeking to implement public policy objectively contrary to broad public interest need only establish bona fides through a campaign of rhetoric and promotion. Fear can be key, since we have already admitted that this is a population of voters manifestly self-identifying as eager to believe in the supernatural.
But I’m confident this probably does not accurately describe someone like Mr. Burgess. So why would he use such a term? Who can say? But I suspect such people are relying on this kind of self-description in order to cope with some flaw or failure they see in themselves. Telling themselves they are responding to some agency outside their own intelligence, perception, and motivation gives them comfort and even heightened self-confidence. So probably Mr. Burgess makes decisions just like most people, weighing experience along with available evidence. Saying he “relies on his faith” is merely a more humble version of the true zealot’s “God Told Me To” explanation. It gets him off the hook in a way he apparently needs. That’s more like the vast bulk of values voters. And it isn’t even remotely “faith driven”. As we’ve seen recently, it can very often be hate “driven”. But that’s a different kind of “faith”.

@ 6
And how do Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit’s linked authors come up with a $4T reduction?
By assuming that because the proposed bill doesn’t provide funding beyond 2026, the funding will therefore be zero.
If one looks at the 10 years covering ’17-’26, the cuts are much smaller and 16 states will actually receive MORE money over that period.
New analysis from Avalere finds that the Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson (GCHJ) bill to repeal and
replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would lead to a reduction in federal funding to states by $215B

won’tdoesn’t understand enough to tell you is that the biggest reason for his dislike is that the states that will experience the largest cuts are states like CA and MA.

Buckley Jr. had been replaced by media clowns such as Ann Coulter and Milo Yiannopoulos. Icons such as Ronald Reagan—with his optimism and geniality—had been supplanted by the dark, erratic narcissism of Donald Trump.

Does any intelligent person really think that entities like Time have real influence? Or that they engage in “journalism”?
Time is now less than four years into it’s adventure as a rapidly declining stand alone publicly traded print media dumpster fire. They’ve torched hundreds of millions on poorly conceived experiments, and buying up other dying print media shipwrecks. The strategy seems to be that if they tie enough burning wreckage together it will remain afloat for long enough for the C suites to vest. They’ve hired and replaced more executive leadership than a Fuckface White House. They don’t really even have editors anymore. Cover story? Cover of what exactly? The last dead trees edition of Time I saw was at the barbers and it was five years old. Don’t they still sell VHS video libraries to Nazi war afficianados? They are trading on a reputation that was being liquidated during the Nixon administration.
So I suppose it should be no great surprise that in a desperate bid to remain afloat they cling to an outmoded model of political equivalence at a time when one of the two major parties has embraced Nazis, Russian spies, nuclear Armageddon and the Klan. Old white guys will always need their safe spaces.

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
73,
Let’s be clear about this. The Hillbilly/Treason/Klan party is far and away the more financially irresponsible of the two major parties.
In simplest, bumper sticker slogan terms:
Democrats want to take more money from the wealthiest and most privileged members of society, including most of us, and spend it on the important functions of government.
Republicans want to take more money from unborn future generations of society and spend it on themselves and sport-bombing places where brown people live.
No part of any of the currently proposed Hillbilly/Treason/Klan legislation whether healthcare, spending, or taxation has any intention of paying for itself in any way. This is deficit financed tax cuts to benefit the wealthy. These are healthcare revenue cuts to reduce taxes on the wealthy. The history is unworthy of debate. Hillbilly/Treason/Klan governments run huge deficits and typically leave the economy in ruins. Democratic governments run smaller deficits and succeed in recovering from Hillbilly/Treason/Klan economic recessions. Supply side is such utter nonsense that even Hillbilly/Treason/Klan members no longer really believe in it. It’s uninterrupted record of utter failure cannot be refuted. But they cling to it because their re-election fund raising depends upon it. Now more than ever.

And since the RNC threw in with Fuckface and the Nazi/Klan right they seem to believe they can be more effective with their own targeted support out of their own PACs. Supporting bullshit like the Republican Governor’s Association version of SputnikNews for example. My guess is the smart move these days is to send your money overseas to do the real dirty stuff, funding activities through foreign intermediaries beyond the reach of U.S. law enforcement. Kinda like what Fuckface did. Just more widespread. And of course with less chiseling and incompetence.

Let’s just pray the idiot racist traitors into whose hands Fuckface has placed our global security understand this system of laws better than our trolls.
This kind of pointlessly unsourced, and unvalidated reporting relies on the sheer ignorance of the intended audience of bloated, beer sucking, rabidly partisan shut-ins it targets.
“Some guys we won’t identify say some stuff we are too lazy to repeat, about some stuff we don’t understand” + a half dozen obvious lies we can pass off as “oversights” = 15 to 20 million angry hillbillies simultaneously throwing their beer can at the trailer wall, grasping for their ACE inhibitors and fumbling for their checkbooks while screaming BENGHAAAAZIIII!!!!!!! over the incessant drone of the swamp cooler.

Puddles, puddles, puddles- Unmasking is not, in and of itself, a crime or even wrong. If an American is detected having a conversation with a foreigner and there is a reasonable basis for concern, that individual can be unmasked. No other than Trey Gowdy, certainly no liberal, indicated no problem with Rice’s actions. But rave on.

I’m pretty sure the only real use he finds in this sort of breathless fake news is a momentary renewal of erectile function. He should save it for Saturday night when it counts.
These poor fools are faced with a helluva dilemma. They must either face up to and admit that they actively campaigned to hand our national security over to corrupt agents of a foreign power. Or they have to seize hold of and nurture a fantasy about Derp State forces conspiring globally to somehow entrap their beloved orange howler monkey and his team of racist minions.

The GOP’s latest attack on Obamacare looks like another attempt to raid Medicaid to get money for cutting taxes of the rich. It also looks an awful lot like political revenge against states that voted for Hillary Clinton. The biggest losers would be California and New York. The biggest gainer: Texas.
“The latest Senate Republican attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act and enact sweeping reforms to the American health care system has generated intense opposition from the very health care providers, patient groups and insurance companies that would be forced to adapt to the changes envisioned by the legislation.
“The bill, sponsored by GOP Sens. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, would undo most of the Affordable Care Act and radically refashion the Medicaid program by shrinking the budgets for federal health care programs and turning over the remaining money to states, which would have to devise their own new health care systems.
“The bill also undermines the Affordable Care Act’s protections for people with pre-existing conditions. The results would be millions fewer people with health coverage.”
And, like previous GOP efforts, it’s probably dead on arrival. Virtually every major group in the country representing health care providers is saying, “Hell no!”

When Don Lemon asked Clapper if he had knowledge of the FISA warrant for Paul Manafort, he said no. Back in a March interview with Chuck Todd, Clapper said that if the FBI had a FISA warrant for Manafort, he would have “absolutely” known about it.

Try reading the fine print, dumbass. What Clapper denied to Lemon is that Obama wiretapped Trump Tower, which didn’t happen and there’s still no evidence it did:
“’Well, I can’t comment on a specific FISA order,’ Clapper told Lemon. ‘I said some things about this on ‘Meet the Press’ on the 5th of March, and I stand on that statement.’
“Some Trump boosters have argued that reports investigators obtained a FISA warrant against Manafort vindicate Trump’s unsubstantiated claim former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower during the election. They’ve also pointed to Clapper’s ‘Meet the Press’ interview as proof the former director of national intelligence lied.
“In that March 5 exchange, Clapper stated, unequivocally, ‘there was no such wiretap activity mounted against the president, president-elect, candidate or campaign.’
“‘I can deny it,’ Clapper said when pressed by NBC host Chuck Todd, restating that, to his knowledge, there was no FISA court order of anything at Trump Tower.”

Pro tip, dumbshit: if you decide to engage in conspiracies with people who are criminals there is a substantial possibility that you will be the subject of a warrant for surveillance. Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas. Go into business with global criminals, you get to enjoy the taste of hooker pee. Wrap yourself in the Stars and Bars you’re bound to get some Klan Kooties.

Fixed that for you. And there’s still no evidence of a surveillance warrant for – wait for it – Trump Tower.
However, Trump’s voice may have been recorded when the FBI recorded Manafort talking to the Russians. Which, of course, would mean it was a 3-way conference call between Manafort, Trump, and the Russians talking about illegal stuff.
