Wednesday Morning Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Wednesday, 10/28/20, 8:01 am

Months into mask requirements, I don’t understand the opposition. It’s slightly annoying, but emphasis on slightly. Some of them are a bit too tight, but you should have found some good ones by now. They aren’t 100% effective, but they are better than not wearing one. They help the person wearing the mask, and everyone they come in contact with.

But fucking Idaho, man. They’re loosening mask requirements. And since they share a border with Washington, their garage can stink up our state. Wear a mask, and require it if you’re a state or local official.

Anyway, in addition to putting on a fucking mask if you’re out, please wash your goddam hands right now.

    Team Trump Logistics really screwed up an Omaha rally. The rally was at the airport, so attendees had to shuttle in, and the weather was near-freezing. Far more people than planned for showed up and there were far too few buses to quickly shuttle people away from the outdoor venue when it was over. People were outside in the cold for hours.

    The Even Bigger Fucking Moron @ 6

    The Seattle economy is doing very, very well. You’re seeing an acceleration of trends that already existed. More people are working from home, and restaurants that are sited near traditional work places are hurting or closing. When all of this Wuhan shit is over, Amazon isn’t going back to having all of its people work downtown. They’ll continue to work from home.

    People are hanging out in bars less, now. They’re hosting football-watching parties on their Costco-purchased massive-screen Samsung or LG TVs, and are having pizza or GrubHub deliveries.

    Theaters were already in trouble because of the move to Netflix and other streaming services. Think Disney wasn’t considering expanding its own channel before the Wuhan? Think again.

    Video killed the radio star, The Even Bigger Fucking Moron. This isn’t about the $15 minimum wage and it isn’t so much about the Wuhan. It’s a change in public behavior as the home becomes preferable to $8/hour parking, 25% tip expectations for mediocre service, and silly-ass meal inventions at $60 per plate.

    Steve, how close to you would you permit a man with a knife to approach before discharging your firearm in self-defense?

    Would you stop shooting after one round hits your target even if he continues to approach?

    Steve, if a man with a knife approaches within 15 feet of you and you elect to employ a de-escalation technique instead of defending yourself with a firearm, which one would you select first? Realize that your department has not issued you a Taser.

    I wonder if Steve and The Even Bigger Fucking Moron are as concerned about the number of people shot during the looting last night as they are about a guy shot for advancing on police with a knife after ignoring numerous very clearly stated commands to drop the knife he was holding?

    Girl, 15, Man, 18, Among 11 Shot in Area Targeted by Looters, Police Say

    Two teenagers, a 15-year-old girl and 18-year-old young man, were among at least 11 people shot in an area targeted by looters during a night of unrest following the police shooting death of a Philadelphia man, police said.

    No, I don’t wonder. Steve doesn’t give a shit unless it’s a shooting he can use to his advantage in some way. And The Even Bigger Fucking Moron should be watching Nickolodeon rather than conversing with adults.

    The big liberal concern, you see, isn’t a dead black man who advanced on police while holding a knife, forcing them to fire on him in obvious self-defense.

    The big liberal concern is how bad this looks to the average voter, and that conservatives might point that out:

    Watching my Twitter feed since last night very notable the intensity of tweets from conservative voices looking to amplify/draw attention to looting in Phila. Yes it happened. NYT covered it as well. Just remarkable how conservatives want to elevate it.

    Perish that thought that a quarter of Philadelphia is sheltering in place so that WalMart can be looted twice in one night, while helicopters cover it for the local news and the police are nowhere in sight.

    A lot of Trump’s hope stems from this.

    Biden’s lead isn’t *quite* comfortable enough in PA.

    And although he has some *good* backup plans if he loses PA… namely AZ/FL/NC/GA…he doesn’t have a *great* one being ahead only 1-3 points in those states.

    It’s a theoretical question, of course. Still, given what happened in 2016, wouldn’t you want to know the answer?

    If the networks are doing what they are doing with respect to the Hunter Biden story, why wouldn’t the pollsters behave similarly, using the tools available to them?

    We know that PPP tilts left and that Rasmussen tilts right. Why can’t a bunch of other pollsters make a decision to tilt left, the way the Hunter Biden-ignoring networks have done?

    If all the pollsters can do is mislead you for one more week, they may take the opportunity to mislead you for one more week. If all I’ve got is one more week to poke Steve in the ribs, I’m gonna use that week to poke Steve in the ribs.

    Polling isn’t relevant anyway. The GOP game plan was never to be popular, a quixotic quest if there ever was one. The GOP plans to take the election away from the people in gerrymandered legislatures and partisan courts.

    GREENE: Well, can you tell us about Walter Wallace Jr., give us a sense of this man?

    CRIMMINS: He was 27 years old, married, father of eight children with another on the way. He made his living driving Uber and an aspiring rapper, and he was also diagnosed with a bipolar condition. He was prescribed lithium, and he had more than his fair share of run-ins with the law for aggressive behavior, most recently in March, for making threats. And he had been, in the past, sentenced to some court-ordered mental health treatments. But when he was on his meds, apparently, he was a really mellow guy. People say he was calm, a nice guy, a family guy.

    Maybe instead of shooting him the police should have offered him a lithium. Oh, and an Olde English 800 to wash it down with.

    It’s about what people feel they need to know about the people who may be put in charge of their lives. Associate Justice GangBang is a lifetime appointment to an excessively empowered high court of a guy who probably committed some form of drunken sexual assault as a young man. Concerns with the details of his youth and potential criminal behavior only reflect the wider concerns about the degree of power these justice feel entitled to exercise and their lifetime in authority.

    These concerns are widespread, span the political spectrum, and they are very obvious. They should even be obvious to a complete dumbshit like you. But you’re still reeling from the appalling losses you suffered in the mid-terms because of the intemperate and entirely politically motivated rush to fill the seat in spite of open questions about GangBang’s character and qualifications.

    Questions now being answered by the incredibly poor quality of scholarship and reasoning in his work product and written opinions. Maybe he’ll grow into the role. But I suspect he’ll instead become a minority of one on the court when it comes to conferencing and opinions. Joined by none.

    Coming only fifteen years after Watergate, the public appetite for investigation of it’s elected representatives and their private lives was still piqued when Jim Wright resigned.

    But I hope you aren’t suggesting that Tucker is the next Newt Gingrich (although I can’t think of a political party more deserving of such humiliation). We now live in a different time, when a nominee clearly and publicly admitting to his supporters that he has a long history of violent sexual assaults is met with a shrug by those supporters. And media have become so numbed to that FailPresident’s appalling financial scandals that they can no longer be bothered to even ask anymore, since it won’t provoke enough clicks, shares, or RTs.

    I think America has just gotten used to the idea that Republicans in general are gigantic liars, at least when it comes to targeting their opponents (for more on this see Pudiot, Ron Johnson, Alex Jones, The Q Clearance Cat Lady, Donald J. Trump, etc). Gingrich still enjoyed an assumption of credibility. That credibility is now smoldering soot stain in a puddle of dried Diet Coke and Astro Glide surrounded by jizz-smeared NDAs, Russian loan documents, and “Breadcrumbs”.

    ORLANDO, Fla. — Joe Biden has a narrow lead among Florida Hispanic voters but is running well behind Hillary Clinton’s 2016 performance, according to a new poll released Thursday by Telemundo.

    Biden leads Trump among Hispanics by just 48-43 percent, numbers that could mean trouble for the former vice president in the nation’s biggest swing state.

    In 2016 it was Clinton 62, Trump 36.

    Except, you only get this number by ignoring 1st and 2nd Quarter losses (-1.3% and -9.0% respectively) and then “annualizing” 3rd Quarter GDP (+7.4%)
    Sounds great, which is why Trump is crowing about it.
    But in reality these numbers were compiled prior to the current COVID surge and resulting closure of business and production.
    These numbers do not reflect expiration of unemployment insurance, which will become more and more apparent given that congress is unable to produce legislation to extend those benefits or provide relief for people out of work.
    And on that note, these numbers do not include the 22 million people compared to this time last year who are now unemployed, and THUS REFLECT SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED NATIONAL PRODUCTION.
    In point of fact, the economy is 3.5% SMALLER now than at the end of 2019. You’re not looking at RECORD GROWTH, you’re looking at recovering ground lost during the pandemic.
    If you have $100 and you lose $80, then eventually recover $60, you’re STILL $20 short.
    At this point, there is literally NO growth, it’s ALL recovery.

    For months, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey had been pressing President Trump to quash the investigation, which threatened not only the bank but potentially members of Mr. Erdogan’s family and political party. When Mr. Berman sat down with Mr. Barr, he was stunned to be presented with a settlement proposal that would give Mr. Erdogan a key concession.

    Mr. Barr pressed Mr. Berman to allow the bank to avoid an indictment by paying a fine and acknowledging some wrongdoing. In addition, the Justice Department would agree to end investigations and criminal cases involving Turkish and bank officials who were allied with Mr. Erdogan and suspected of participating in the sanctions-busting scheme.

    Mr. Berman didn’t buy it.

    The bank had the right to try to negotiate a settlement. But his prosecutors were still investigating key individuals, including some with ties to Mr. Erdogan, and believed the scheme had helped finance Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

    @129 Dumbfuck math lesson:

    Let’s say pre-pandemic GDP is 99 units, but goes down 33% because of the pandemic, so now GDP is 66 units.

    Then GDP goes up 33% because of “REOPEN!!!” and “BEACH PARTY!!!” so now it’s 88.

    Are we recovered? No, because 88 is less than 99. GDP is still down by 11 units or 11.1%.

    So if real (not hypothetical) GDP goes down by 33% in the 2nd quarter, which it did, and goes up by 33% in the 3rd quarter, which it allegedly did, are you better off than you were before TrumPlague?

    No, because you’re still unemployed, your unemployment benefits have been cut off, and the economy is about to plunge again because the Party of No is obstructing the TrumPlague relief bill. In fact, you and your kids are likely to end up dead or disabled, and bankrupt, because they won’t even pay for testing or safe schools, and are taking away your health coverage.

    “That even centrist lawmakers are now opening the door to broad structural reforms to the Senate and perhaps even the Supreme Court ― steps previously only discussed by the left wing of the Democratic Party ― speaks to the highly politicized nature of the chamber under Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and his relentless focus on reshaping the federal judiciary for decades to come, norms and rules be damned.

In a letter to the top Trump administration negotiator, the California Democrat said she is ‘still awaiting’ replies from the White House ‘on multiple items of critical importance’ as the Covid-19 outbreak rages across the U.S. She cited a bevy of differences the sides did not resolve during a preelection scramble to strike a deal: a national testing strategy ….”

    The Spokesman-Review:

    Editorial: With misgivings, vote Trump for president and Inslee for governor

    Donald Trump is a bully and a bigot. He is symptomatic of a widening partisan divide in the country. We recommend voting for him anyway because the policies that Joe Biden and his progressive supporters would impose on the nation would be worse.
    …
    Biden might win on personality and comity, but his policies would strike at the economic well-being of the country. He favors massive growth in government and a historic increase in federal spending through green initiatives, free health services, free education and other ideas grounded in reliance on the state as savior rather than creating an environment in which individual liberty and hard work can thrive. Public employee unions would hold outsized power and demand greater spending.

    To afford it all, Biden and a Democrat-controlled Congress would have to impose unprecedented tax increases or accept catastrophic deficit spending.

    Taxes and spending likely would increase under Trump, too, but the nation stands a better chance of moderation and reform with him in the White House than it does with Biden pushed left by progressives intent on reshaping America to fit their fantastical vision.

    Elsewhere in the piece, the editorial refers to Biden as “doddering”.

    If Trump wins, Inslee could hone his approach and be a strong 2024 presidential contender. The environmental/green shit would have to go, of course. If Inslee could do that it would be good for the state and good for the nation.

    A 2024 race between Inslee and, say, Pence would look so much better, on both sides, than the 2020 and 2016 races.

    I’ll vote for Inslee and I’ll vote for Rick Larsen. Neither of them has given me a compelling reason not to return them to office. I just disagree with a lot of what they do.

    By the way, WHC’s assertion about “most” newspapers is false. At most newspapers, editorials and endorsements are written by, or at least written with the participation of, professional journalists. Cowles is one of the very few newspaper owners whose personal opinions dictate the editorial stance of the newspaper.

    Eric Trump must testify in New York AG probe before election, judge rules

    And then Fox News reported that Trump complied with the subpoena:

    NEW YORK – President Donald Trump’s son Eric answered questions Monday from New York state investigators looking into his family’s business practices.

    The office of New York Attorney General Letitia James confirmed that the video deposition took place as scheduled, though no further information was provided as to how long it lasted or what kinds of questions were posed.

    So, Cz-252, now that I’ve demonstrated that Fox News openly reported about Eric Trump, perhaps you can try again with your bullshit reasoning as to why it’s not appropriate for NBC, CBS, ABC, NPR, MSNBC, and CNN to report on Hunter Biden.

    NBC News is reporting on Hunter Biden. Here:

    “One month before a purported leak of files from Hunter Biden’s laptop, a fake ‘intelligence’ document about him went viral on the right-wing internet, asserting an elaborate conspiracy theory involving former Vice President Joe Biden’s son and business in China. The document, a 64-page composition that was later disseminated by close associates of President Donald Trump, appears to be the work of a fake ‘intelligence firm’ called Typhoon Investigations, according to researchers and public documents. The author of the document, a self-identified Swiss security analyst named Martin Aspen, is a fabricated identity, according to analysis by disinformation researchers, who also concluded that Aspen’s profile picture was created with an artificial intelligence face generator. The intelligence firm that Aspen lists as his previous employer said that no one by that name had ever worked for the company and that no one by that name lives in Switzerland, according to public records and social media searches. One of the original posters of the document, a blogger and professor named Christopher Balding, took credit for writing parts of it when asked about it and said Aspen does not exist. Despite the document’s questionable authorship and anonymous sourcing, its claims that Hunter Biden has a problematic connection to the Communist Party of China have been used by people who oppose the Chinese government, as well as by far-right influencers, to baselessly accuse candidate Joe Biden of being beholden to the Chinese government.”

    Decision by the Eighth Circuit invalidates Minnesota’s non-legislative effort to have late ballots counted.

    Thus, the Secretary’s attempt to re-write the laws governing the deadlines for mail-in ballots in the 2020 Minnesota presidential election is invalid. However well-intentioned and appropriate from a policy perspective in the context of a pandemic during a presidential election, it is not the province of a state executive official to re-write the state’s election code, at least as it pertains to selection of presidential electors. The democratically-enacted election rules in Minnesota provide that mail-in votes must be received by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day in order to be counted (or 3:00 p.m. if delivered in person).

    OK, let’s delve into this a little bit more.

    If police are instructed to aim for the winkie, but black men have bigger winkies, on average, than the winkies of white men,

    then Steve, is winkie-shooting rather than critical-mass shooting racist because the black winkie is easier to hit?

    It’s all so complicated.

    This is why Team Biden’s not calling the Hunter Biden emails forgeries.

    EXCLUSIVE: NY Post’s ‘Smoking Gun’ Hunter Biden Email 100% Authentic, Forensic Analysis Concludes

    It’s because they’re real.

    Graham used the DKIM signature within the email to verify with a private key on Google’s servers that the sender, recipient, subject, date and body of the message that the DCNF obtained from Giuliani were unchanged from when the email was originally sent in April 2015.

    Graham said the only way the email could have been faked is if someone hacked into Google’s servers, found the private key and used it to reverse engineer the email’s DKIM signature.

    Who is this dude Graham, you may ask?

    The DCNF provided Robert Graham, the founder of the cybersecurity firm Errata Security, with a copy of the email and its metadata for forensic analysis.

    Graham, who has been cited as a cybersecurity expert in The Washington Post, the Associated Press, Wired, Engadget and other news and technology outlets, told the DCNF that he used a cryptographic signature found in the email’s metadata to validate that Vadym Pozharsky, an advisor to Burisma’s board of directors, emailed Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015.

    220,
    When?

    You’ve been flogging this since 2017. You’ve appointed two Special Counsels, got caught trying to extort the President of Ukraine, paid Rudy to go on a global vacation with Russian spies, and hired some dodgy Swiss intelligence company to create a fake dossier.

    When? He’s 77 for fuck’s sake.

    White chick gets a PhD in History, invents a Chicana heritage to get a tenure-track job, gets a Mellon Faculty Diversity Fellowship,

    gets caught.

    In many aspects of Kelly’s professional life, such as on her personal website or on the websites of professional organizations she is a part of, there doesn’t seem to be any claims to Hispanic or Chicana identity. Yet through these other clues we are left wondering, how far has Dr. Kean Sharp exploited this identity? Perhaps hiding behind a vague Mexican heritage helped her feel more secure as she entered her new academic field of African American history. Certainly by using such an identity, she might not have to come to terms with her systemic white privileges. Maybe she imagined this would gain her more access to anti-racist and diverse spaces? Her previous colleagues from UC Davis asked me to make these concerns public to ensure that Dr. Kelly Kean Sharp can no longer lie to students or colleagues.

    It’s a little unfortunate that the author is anonymous.

    @211 “The Minnesota legislature had months to do something about this. It didn’t.”

    Of course they didn’t. Republicans control the state senate, and Republicans don’t want people to vote, or if they do vote, they don’t want their votes counted.

    “Brent Shore, the judge who led Duval County’s vote-counting board, resigned Thursday, five hours after The Florida Times-Union uncovered he donated 12 times to President Donald Trump’s campaign and his home was covered in signs supporting Trump, despite rules requiring judges like him refrain from donations or public support.

    “Shore’s resignation came after a week of criticism for how he was handling the Duval County Canvassing Board’s responsibility to correct and count mail ballots rejected by machines. …

    “Violating the judicial canons could land Shore … in front of the Judicial Qualifications Commission, where judges are prosecuted and even removed from their positions depending on the seriousness of their violations.

    “Shore also may have violated the rules for canvassing board members. Canvassing boards, which right now have been counting mail ballots prior to Election Day, are three-person boards with a county commissioner, an elections supervisor and led by a county judge. They are banned from ‘actively participating’ in campaigns or supporting candidacies.”

    “Someone stole the goods. I can’t reveal it because someone stole it and I don’t have it, so I can’t tell you what’s in it.”

    “I found it. It turned up. It’s very suspicious how it was gone, but now it’s back. Anyway, I had a copy all along. I mean, I’m not stupid.”

    “We still can’t tell you what’s in it because we’re still looking at it to see what’s in it, though we had a copy the whole time I told you that it was stolen.”

    “Let’s not all be hasty now.”

    And you conservatives still believe this guy?

    In an interview earlier this year, Trump’s Felony Brain described his mathematical threshold that would lead to certain defeat for the GOP FailPresident:
    https://thebulwark.com/reaching-the-bannon-line/

    Bannon argued that if only 3 to 4% of regular Republican voters move away from him he loses. But the countervailing argument from Trumpalos has been that it won’t matter if WHITE POWER!!! can turn out huge numbers of new angry old white men with Trump flags. And it’s not a bad argument. All indications are that there will be a surge of turnout and support among this group.

    So a good question might be, are there any indications yet among early voters that this threshold of Republican defection is being cleared?

    The Democracy Fund longitudinal voter study group’s Nationscape survey appears to show such an indication. Data collected between Oct 22 and Oct 28 showed 13% of early voting Republicans had voted for Vice President Biden.
    https://twitter.com/rp_griffin/status/1322145299733893120
    It’s important to recognize that these are early voters, and so they are likely to over represent Never-Trump Republicans. But still, it’s early confirmation of one important indicator we are looking for in our struggle to reclaim democracy and the rule of law in America.

    @233 13% sounds about right. That’s how you get a 17% Biden lead in Wisconsin.

    @233 That 13% figure sounds about right. That’s how you could get a plausible poll showing a 17% Biden lead in Wisconsin.
