It just cracks me up when our favorite Tory operative from down under pretends he knows anything about Americans or the United States.

@Setanta,

Around 138 million Americans voted in the 2016 presidential election. From Business Insider. However, those 138 million Americans only make up 58.1% of our voting-eligible population (those American citizens over 18). From United States Elections Project.Aug 24, 2018

@Builder,
Unlike some (ahem) countries, Americans are not required to vote. They don't want to be counted, that's their choice.

@roger,
I struck myself off the roll here during the state gerrymander.

Voting is only mandatory if you enroll.

There's a lot about this nation that you people make assumptions about. We can still legally own all sorts of weapons, as well.

Due to having Mudrock supremacy in our press coverage here, we get all the gossip about American politics. Whether we want it, or not.

Quote:

Because of previous news reports and now the revelations of former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe that he ordered a counterintelligence investigation of President Trump in May 2017, and that his FBI team, including Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, discussed secretly wire-recording the president and invoking the 25th Amendment to remove him from office, the government watchdog Judicial Watch is suing the Justice Department.

The purpose of Judicial Watch's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, is to obtain "all written and audio/visual records of any FBI/DOJ discussions regarding the 25th Amendment and plans to secretly record President Trump in the Oval Office," stated the organization in a press release.

“It is no surprise that we are facing an immense cover-up of senior FBI and DOJ leadership discussions to pursue a seditious coup against President Trump,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

“This effort to overthrow President Trump is a fundamental threat to our constitutional republic so Judicial Watch will do everything it can in the courts to expose everything possible about this lawlessness," he said.......

....In sum, the Left and the administrative state, in concert with the media, after failing to stop the Trump campaign, regrouped. They ginned up a media-induced public hysteria, with the residue of the Hillary Clinton campaign’s illegal opposition research, and manipulated it to put in place a special counsel, stocked with partisans.

Then, not thugs in sunglasses and epaulettes, not oligarchs in private jets, not shaggy would-be Marxists, but sanctimonious arrogant bureaucrats in suits and ties used their government agencies to seek to overturn the 2016 election, abort a presidency, and subvert the U.S. Constitution. And they did all that and more on the premise that they were our moral superiors and had uniquely divine rights to destroy a presidency that they loathed.

Shame on all these failed conspirators and their abettors, and may these immoral people finally earn a long deserved legal and moral reckoning......

Only if you can convince your government that you "need" to have that weapon.

And it's never a weapon that is useful for self defense.

Germany, Slovakia, Switzerland, and the Netherlands rely on market competition between health insurers for their health care system.

They would be very surprised to hear that they are not developed countries.

You are also saying that socialized systems where the government directly operates all the hospitals are a form of Medicare For All.

Republican strategists asked me to extend their heartfelt thanks for doing that. They would like you to continue telling people that Medicare For All means a socialized system where the government directly operates all the hospitals.

White House readies panel to assess if climate change poses a national security threat
Quote:
The White House is working to assemble a panel to assess whether climate change poses a national security threat, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post, a conclusion that federal intelligence agencies have affirmed several times since President Trump took office.

The proposed Presidential Committee on Climate Security, which would be established by executive order, is being spearheaded by William Happer, a National Security Council senior director. Happer, an emeritus professor of physics at Princeton University, has said that carbon emissions linked to climate change should be viewed as an asset rather than a pollutant.

The initiative represents the Trump administration’s most recent attempt to question the findings of federal scientists and experts on climate change and comes less than three weeks after Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats delivered a worldwide threat assessment that identified it as a significant security risk.

@oralloy,
We also hjave 4 and 8 year periods in the vasr majority of our history. There is no way of predicting when or if one wil show up, since they are neither cyclic, nor periodic, so your contention that Trump is the start of one is totally non-evident or inded likely.

True. But that does not change the fact that we also have periods where one party rules for 20 or more years.

Check back with me after election day 2032 and let's see if the Republicans haven't won the White House for the fifth time in a row.

If the Democrats don't purge their leftists and nominate a sensible moderate in 2036, the Republicans will have an even longer run than 20 years.

Really smart and funny (sort of) piece from Jon Chait and an emerging legal claim from the conservative movement legal crowd

Quote:
In other words, Trump can’t be investigated because he is such a massive crook. The president could function when he was defending one private lawsuit and one financial investigation, but not when he is defending a series of elaborate global rackets. It’s just a simple matter of time management. Trump can’t do his job if he has to defend all these crimes.

Rivkin is probably correct that, when the Supreme Court predicted defending against a lawsuit would not interfere with a president’s official conduct, it was not anticipating that one day the president might be a professional money launderer.

@gungasnake,
Ultimately the solution is to outlaw the Democratic Party. That will put an end to their witch hunts once and for all.

@blatham,
You're living in some alternate universe of **** information but, basically, there is only one thing about Donald Trump which wankers like yourself need to understand:

Anything at all happens to him, and you are in a second civil war which you have no chance to win.

@oralloy,
Only 39% support Trump's national emergency. 51% oppose it. Syrongly oppose it 41%. Strongly support it 26%,
He's losing on his signsture issue. And he's the subject of something like 1 investigations coming up. No more lszy afternons on the golf course if he's smart, Question is, is he smart. Does NOT lok god for four more years for him.
