US Politics Thread |OT| SAD TRUMP

[benjipwns]

WE'RE SAVED! THE REAL DEAL IS BACK!

Kerry hinted that many in the American establishment, as well as in American intelligence, are dissatisfied with Trump's performance and the way he leads America. He surprised his interlocutor by saying he was seriously considering running for president in 2020. When asked about his advanced age, he said he was not much older than Trump and would not have an age problem.

Hairy Kerry is a low energy loser. Sad.

Andrew McCarthy sees that others are butting in on his gig, decides to ignore the ongoing George scandal (not to be confused with the failed magazine George from JFK Jr.) and instead plays re-prosecutor of the EMAILS:

From the first, these columns have argued that the whitewash of the Hillary Clinton–emails caper was President Barack Obama’s call — not the FBI’s, and not the Justice Department’s. (See, e.g., here, here, and here.) The decision was inevitable. Obama, using a pseudonymous email account, had repeatedly communicated with Secretary Clinton over her private, non-secure email account.

These emails must have involved some classified information, given the nature of consultations between presidents and secretaries of state, the broad outlines of Obama’s own executive order defining classified intelligence (see EO 13526, section 1.4), and the fact that the Obama administration adamantly refused to disclose the Clinton–Obama emails. If classified information was mishandled, it was necessarily mishandled on both ends of these email exchanges.

If Clinton had been charged, Obama’s culpable involvement would have been patent. In any prosecution of Clinton, the Clinton–Obama emails would have been in the spotlight. For the prosecution, they would be more proof of willful (or, if you prefer, grossly negligent) mishandling of intelligence. More significantly, for Clinton’s defense, they would show that Obama was complicit in Clinton’s conduct yet faced no criminal charges.

That is why such an indictment of Hillary Clinton was never going to happen. The latest jaw-dropping disclosures of text messages between FBI agent Peter Strzok and his paramour, FBI lawyer Lisa Page, illustrate this point.

On July 2, with the decision that she would not be indicted long since made, Mrs. Clinton sat for an interview with the FBI — something she’d never have done if there were a chance she might be charged. The farce was complete with the Justice Department and FBI permitting two subjects of the investigation — Mills and Clinton aide Heather Samuelson — to sit in on the interview as lawyers representing Clinton. That is not something law enforcement abides when it is serious about making a case. Here, however, it was clear: There would be no prosecution.

All cleaned up: no indictment, meaning no prosecution, meaning no disclosure of Clinton–Obama emails. It all worked like a charm . . . except the part where Mrs. Clinton wins the presidency and the problem is never spoken of again.

As we now know, Communism was a form of collusion practiced by Russia before social media was created.

[Joe Molotov]

What I mean to say is, all the other Democrats need to get out of the way and let Hillary have the nomination again in 2020. Then if she wins, Donald Trump needs to run again in 2024. 2016 was such a good election year, that it doesn't make sense not to make it a best 2 of 3.

Well, when I was younger. And I read NRO as part of my "shud read many partisans" before Obama, Jay Nordlinger used to go to Davos every conference and report from it almost breathlessly about who was there (occasionally what they said) and I only ever got the impression the entire point is for financial elites with theoretical ties to nations to hobnob on "company time" while journalists show up to be awed by them. Later, I found out this was in fact the entire point.

But in reality, the main thing I ever learned from his reporting was that Queen Rania of Jordan is totally hot. And he was increasingly giving her alone larger and larger sections of the report. She probably never even noticed his secret passion for her. Sad.

Senate Democrats are willing to drop their demand that relief for Dreamers be tied to any long-term budget agreement — a potential boost for spending talks, but one that could face opposition from their House counterparts.

The shift comes in response to the deal struck between Senate leaders Monday to reopen the government and begin debate on an immigration bill next month. Meanwhile, budget negotiators are expressing optimism that a two-year agreement to lift stiff caps on defense and domestic spending is increasingly within reach.

meanwhile, at the White House:

President Trump said on Wednesday that he is open to a path to citizenship after 10 to 12 years for hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children, days after rejecting a bipartisan plan with that as its centerpiece.

Mr. Trump once again seemed to undercut his administration’s message, telling reporters at the White House that he would allow the young immigrants, known as Dreamers, to “morph into” citizens over a period of time.

The reporters had gathered for a briefing from a senior official detailing the administration’s plans to stick to a restrictive immigration agenda when the president dropped in unprompted, shortly before departing for Davos, Switzerland, pre-empting the official.

“Over a period of 10 to 12 years,” Mr. Trump said, “somebody does a great job, they work hard — that gives incentive to do a great job. Whatever they’re doing, if they do a great job, I think it’s a nice thing to have the incentive of, after a period of years, being able to become a citizen.”

For all of those jumping off the Trump Train, how's your 401K's looking. Trump has accomplished a lot in his first year. Yet the Debbie and Donnie downers will always have something negative to say. Trump knows what he is doing. How do you call someone crazy and incompetent when you see high rises and golf courses throughout the world with the name ......."TRUMP" on all of them?

2) we don’t really know it’s near the end. I do think that we are nearing the end of the Obstruction investigation, specifically, as news reports suggest that Mueller wants to talk about that with Trump, specifically, but there is no law, as far as I know,that says “Mueller can only interview each person one time”.

This train never stops:
 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-01-25/mueller-said-to-be-near-end-of-obstruction-part-of-trump-probe

Even if Mueller wraps up the obstruction probe, other elements of his investigation -- such as whether Trump or anyone close to him helped Russia interfere in the 2016 presidential election or broke any other laws -- are likely to continue for months more, said two officials who asked to remain anonymous speaking about the probe.

I've tried at least a dozen times to get him to comment on the Gorin v United States implications in the email case on Twitter

This is not healthy behavior.

Your telling me the guy that wrote actual books on impeaching Obama and his secret Sharia agenda, who now found his sense of skepticism and writes monthly dissertations about how the Russia investigation is a witch hunt, spinning every new piece of evidence, may in fact be a pandering partisan hack that has no interest in intellectual honesty and engaging in dissent through public tweet? Color me shocked.

and that's way less healthy, IMO.

I'd suspect his pocket book probably disagrees.

Trump would have to be lobotomized to do something as astronomically stupid as firing the special prosecutor who was appointed specifically because he fired the director of the FBI. It is unfathomable, even given Trump's CV.

CNN pointing out what was one of my initial reactions, right around that date you had Trump's friend, the owner of Newsmax, going on PBS and start essentially priming the pump about how it would be ok if Trump fried Mueller.

I'd be curious when Fox started there enormous priming the pump move as well. It certainly seemed to have started really hard around that time.

Bunch of fucking treasonous pieces of shit.

Don't worry guys, Fox is on the case, talking about the real news.....talking about Peter Strzok texts and the Nunes memo.

[kingv]

The Netherlands news kind of blows a hole in No collusion too.

Timeline:
April 2016: The group behind making Dutch Masters catches Russian intelligence hacking the DNC red handed and informs FBI.
May/June 2016: the fat guy that’s friends with the Russian pop singer sends an email to Donald JR saying “My dude, the Russian government has dirt on Hillary for you!” D-Jr: “sounds cool as fuck, set up the meeting, we’d love that if it is what you say it is. Especially later in the summer”
June 2016: they meet with the Russian Government Lawyer, who incredibly obviously offered them up the emails that are now proven to be hacked by the Russian, because what else could she possibly have offered? They commit a crime by choosing not to inform the FBI and hiding the information.
July 2016: Trump asks Putin to hack Hillary’s emails on National TV. People tend to overlook this because it was so blatant.

It’s around the meeting and the denials in that July  2016 speech that his campaign has entered in a conspiracy with the Russian government. They are conspiring to cover up the crime of Russian hacking of the DNC and using the results to influence the election.

September 2016: Russian launders the emails through Wikileaks, who is in touch with Donald’s campaign about  post election loss strategy, and asking them to promote said emails on his twitter.

2017: Trump begins trying to obstruct justice by all the things we already knew he did to obstruct justice. So does sessions, so does, Don Jr. so, probably, does Nunes.

Any other explanation basically fails Occams Razor. You have to believe that some other entity hacked the DNC at the exact same time as Russia and that entity then published the emails, while simultaneously, the Russian government then tries to meet up with the trump campaign and instead of choosing to share the emails they had just hacked from the DNC, they instead talk about some fake non-existent Hillary information.

It just... doesn’t add up.

Edit: as someone mentioned above, high odds that the Dutch Masters or someone else drops a dime on some other piece of the conspiracy soon, if cozy Bear was fully owned throughout the election season.

I don’t know how I will hire people at work if I can’t get H1’s, and we are not an H1 mill. Since my team involves a healthy dose of statistics, we have been ok, but other teams at work thst are more like pure salt coding have had trouble getting entry level H1 applications even approved. It’s too hard to prove that you can’t hire domestically under trump. We didn’t really have a problem until this last year.

Yeah, I mean the timeline itself has always blown a lot of holes in almost every alternative "theory" that has been out there to claim it wasn't the Russians.

You have to ignore a lot of reality, facts, and critical thinking to make any of them work.....Which guess what Seth Rich and memo conspirators all seem have in common???

And after zooming out, all of the circumstantial evidence we have, from the timeline you mention, from the meetings, from the emails, from the long-standing questionable business relationships, to the one on one's and meetings people can't recall, to the back channel at the Russian Embassy, to the implied quid-pro-quo letter to Putin, to the strange sudden sophistication and seeming alignment of the Russian propaganda to the campaign's geographical focal points. From Manafort, to Page, to old Pappy and Flynn. Even the recently uncovered Kislyak payments right after the election that are being investigated by the FBI. On and on. It would be really kind of crazy if at the end of all these attempts, at the end of all this, that nothing beyond the pale took place. That despite all these blatant attempts to set up a working relationship, all this questionable money sloshing around, that no one ever got anything across the finish line. I'll never underestimate the incompetence of Trump or his people, but even for them it stretches the limits of my imagination.

...Of course even if it did, proving it is another matter entirely.

Mandark man, you've been too far out of the trenches for too long, this has been like the second part of the argument for a decade or so. The whole "back of the line" argument is often swaddled by claims we need to toughen and tighten the legal process too.

[benjipwns]

That said, one of the few places I agree with the restrictionists is bafflement at the mockery that's been made of the visa program, it seems like the one part the government has to go out of their way to fail at.

Of course, my ideal solution seems to be a bit different from theirs.

Actually, I take that back, I also agree that it's not "fair" for the people who did go through the hellish legitimate immigration process. But again, the solutions I come up with to remedy this seem to differ drastically and generally in an opposite direction.

[benjipwns]

Perhaps amusingly I find the same general subset of people to say stuff like "oh, you're whining that blacks are being abused by police in disproportional amounts? the college intellectual social studies warriors will just arrest more white people to cover up the number" so they clearly comprehend the concept of "the answer isn't to punish everyone else more."

The visa program at least for students as such are horrendous. What is your solution though?

 I mean, from a certain perspective, let's say a hypothetical american born of 2 or more generations, should care about this why? why should they care about some immigrant coming here, studying almost for free on tax payers or other students debt because colleges like to push their global multicultural statistical agenda and then getting a free pass to work in the states?

Why does no one think like this? It's very hard for an American to leave the country and study for free and start working in other countries, especially other first world countries despite what progressives think. Canada has stricter more selective immigration laws than the U.S does lol.

I can't understand this common argument that because shithole countries do things in ways that are worse than our misguided endeavors, we should strive, not to be the potentially definitive nation, but instead to emulate their worst qualities. Especially as some kind of payback against those seeking to leave such shithole countries.

meanwhile back in the land of actual major scandals instead of nutty partisan obsessions:

A photograph of then-Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan that was taken in 2005 at a meeting of the Congressional Black Caucus in Washington, DC, was released Saturday after a 13-year cover-up to protect Obama’s political career.

Asia told TraceEdneyWire.com that he was confronted by a member of the Congressional Black Caucus about the photograph, and that he eventually surrendered it to Farrakhan’s chief of staff. He secretly kept a copy of the image for himself, but he never told anyone and never released the image, for fear of burglary or retaliation against him, he told the left-wing Talking Points Memo website.

He told TraceEdneyWire.com that he believed the photograph would have destroyed Obama’s electoral chances:

“I gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy,” Muhammad said in an exclusive interview with the Trice Edney News Wire this week. “But after the nomination was secured and all the way up until the inauguration; then for eight years after he was President, it was kept under cover.”

As for any debate that the photo could have made a difference in the outcome of the Obama presidential election, Muhammad is emphatic: “I insist. It absolutely would have made a difference.”

The Muhammad photograph proves that there was a rich mine of information that was withheld from the public to protect Obama’s career and policy goals.

You hiring interns? I can do stats like a mofo and speak R in my sleep. Also all my posts on this forum are generated by markov chains.

I have two interns year-round... but you probably don’t want to live where I live, so we typically try to hire locally.

As for the stats (at least for my team st work), all I’m really looking for usually is a working understanding of what logistic regression does.

Frankly, I’m not even a true statistician, more like an MBA from a fancy school that knows enough to know what he doesn’t know, has a dash of commons-sense, and is able to translate heavily-accented statistician speak into something that a 4 year comms major would understand.

I’m pretty good st Sas/SQL, but would never really say that I’m a statistician, even if I’m dealing with stats often as part of my routine work.

R and stats should be in pretty high demand, in general. I wouldn’t lose hope.
