"You can bet the Texas acreage promised for detention camps will quickly be populated"
Yes, and I have to wonder if the "detention camps" will have a "Work makes one free" promise over the entrances. (If so, those signs would likely be made in Chin…
"The non-operative recorder is the biggest mystery to me."
@hank- Yes sir, me too. One thing does occur to me though- I have no idea of the actual circuitry feeding the data to the two recorders, but it would seem probable that there would be "tran…
"Didn’t a cockpit crew member survive? Able to talk?"
@hank- No sir... both of the two survivors were cabin crew who had been seated in the tail section- about as far back as possible.
@BaluBalu- I just don't see how you can expect a gutless and spiritless listing of executive office mandates without additional commentary when those mandates will send the United States in directions undisputedly in contradiction to our history a…
What's "hateful" about the truth, Edmond? You in favor of Trump's female excursions? He's very much in favor of promiscuity for himself but against allowing women control of their own bodies. Kind of one-way, seems to me.
Or is all of that "fake" t…
"$2500 for one hour for your time..."
When I saw that I thought that it was just another episode of Trump and some bimbo. Wells Fargo and Trump share a lot of perspectives, so I wasn't completely wrong.
I've been an Apple/Mac person since day One, back in the 90's. But they have morphed into the Big Brother Who Knows All and Best. I don't trust them at all now.
"Tighten the border? OK, but not with stormtrooper tactics. Anyone who knows history should be terrified right now."

A major step in the disintegration of the United States is going t…
And so it begins-
The Pentagon is rushing to cobble together options for an operation that President Donald Trump has declared a national emergency. These additional service members and capabilities, if all approved, would vastly expand the military…
That commentary crystalizes and encapsulates every random thought that I've had about the situation.
A major step in the disintegration of the United States is going to be the political takeover of the military, who will become the Nazi SS politica…
And from the New York Times, here's a few more:
Federal Work Force
• Freeze federal hiring, except for members of the military or “positions related to immigration enforcement, national security, or public safety.”
• Restore a category of federal …
Well, here's day One:
Ending birthright citizenship
The order: Along with a slew of immigration-focused orders, Trump is targeting automatic citizenship for US-born children of immigrants in the country illegally, to begin 30 days from today.

Absolutely! The first thing after we land on Mars is to impose a 25% tariff on any rocks or whatever they might send back. And also inaugurate a new cryptocurrency: MARSBIT. Of which 20% will be allowed for the public and 80% for those with a net wo…
Well, it is a mouthful and then some. But one part of the long discussion did get my attention, and that dealt with (to paraphrase) the essential changes in direction of the Democratic party, as driven by the younger generations of Democrats who hav…
"Registered" mail requires the use of registered horses and riders here on the continent, so anything from the East takes a fair amount of time these days.
