All the dumb shit in the otherforums thread reminded me of something I heard on npr a couple of weeks ago. Some dude was arguing against the guaranteed jobs program El Bernie was proposing, saying that "there's no way to guaranteed that many jobs, besides no one wants to work for the federal government".Isn't the federal government the largest employer in the US?

But he was instructed “at the last second” not to attend the debriefing, Vindman told lawmakers, because Trump’s advisers worried it might confuse the president: Trump believed at the time that Kashyap Patel, a longtime Nunes staffer who joined the White House in February and had no discernible Ukraine experience or expertise, was actually the NSC’s top Ukraine expert instead of Vindman.Vindman testified that he was told this directly by his boss at the time, NSC senior director for European and Russian affairs Fiona Hill.Hill told Vindman that she and national security adviser John Bolton thought it best to exclude Vindman from the debriefing to avoid “an uncomfortable situation,” he said.
Billing himself as one of President Trump’s top fundraisers, Michael Hodges told fellow payday lenders recently that industry contributions to the president’s reelection campaign could be leveraged to gain access to the Trump administration.“Every dollar amount, no matter how small or large it is” is important, Hodges, founder of Advance Financial, one of the country’s largest payday lenders, said during a 48-minute webcast, obtained by The Washington Post.“For example, I’ve gone to Ronna McDaniel and said, ‘Ronna, I need help on something,’ ” Hodges said, referring to the chair of the Republican National Committee. “She’s been able to call over to the White House and say, ‘Hey, we have one of our large givers. They need an audience. … They need to be heard and you need to listen to them.’ So that’s why it’s important.”

New York (CNN Business)One of the companies that Facebook hired to fact-check posts on its platform will propose a change to Facebook's policy allowing politicians to run ads containing falsehoods, CNN Business has learned.Lead Stories, one of the fact-checking organizations hired by Facebook (FB) after the 2016 election to help curb the platform's misinformation problem, will propose that fact-checkers vet ads from politicians and that those fact-checks then be reviewed by a new nonpartisan blue-ribbon panel.Lead Stories will make the proposal at a meeting for Facebook's fact-checkers at Facebook's Menlo Park headquarters next week, Alan Duke, the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Lead Stories, told CNN Business Thursday."There is an urgent need for a fair method to identify egregiously false political ads in 2020," Duke, himself a former CNN journalist, said. "Our experience as fact checkers shows me that too many people are too fast to fall for disinformation."Lead Stories is one of six fact-checking organizations Facebook works with in the United States. When a link or Facebook post is deemed false by the fact-checkers, clarifiying information is added to it and it is "downranked" on Facebook, meaning it should be seen by less people.
QuoteDuring Tuesday’s debate, the DNC will use a software tool called Trendolizer to track trending disinformation. Trendolizer — think TweetDeck but with lots of fancy graphs — scrapes data from social media and across the internet to surface hidden content that is on the cusp of going viral. Its “Hotness” filter alerts users when something new is about to take off. If it’s potentially damaging misinformation about a Democratic candidate, DNC Tech flags it for its “counter-disinformation contact” on the affected campaign and recommends that they reach out to one of the third-party fact-checkers that Facebook relies upon—such as The Associated Press, Poynter, or FactCheck.org.

What did Ilhan do/say now?Something that got Armenians mad apparently.
Omar said in a statement Tuesday that while she believes accountability is “paramount” for human rights abuses, including genocide, such acknowledgments should not be “used as cudgel in a political fight.” She pointed to the slave trade and genocide of American Indians as examples of atrocities that receive too little recognition. She later defended her vote on Twitter, reiterating that she acknowledges the World War I-era Armenian genocide and that her concern was “not with the substance of this resolution.”“My issue was with the timing and context. I think we should demand accountability for human rights abuses consistently, not simply when it suits our political goals,” said Omar, a champion of Palestinian rights on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. “My focus has and will always be to make sure our foreign policy is consistent, coherent and my votes will as well.”
