Sad news. I don't wish harm to anyone but it would've been great for the country if she would've had to resign for health reasons or any  reason.) Why aren't there press conferences and rude reporters shouting questions about her health or sanity?

Some better news, which is also sort of funny. If somehow R's took those seats due to Californian D's not preparing and the voting laws. Total freakout and more meltdowns by leftists and Hollywood.

Ha. C-SPAN, paid by your cable fees, is great. The callers are awsome! Better than C2C for fun n weird, especially the gov't employees that call in but others also. And we also get, sometimes, our politicians doing funny stuff. But the callers... ;D

Exchanged comms with a former intel-type friend of mine about the #ReleaseTheMemo kerfuffle.  I asked if he thought a redacted version that doesn't endanger sources, methods, etc. could be released that shows what the fuss is all about.  He saw no reason why not.

I assume (I know) that a Classified document made available to all members of the House of Representatives by the Security Committee is by it's nature relatively innocuous.  "The Russians" probably have a copy already, bots or not?

Not Sure, need moar data...

"Sources" claim it's only four pages.

I can read through four pages of governmentese, twenty-eight is stretching it unless heavily redacted...

If it was actually given to all members of the House several days ago, how has it not leaked yet?

Because it makes most of them look bad...VERY bad. ;)

Things like this always come to mind when I see someone that still thinks Liberalism is on the Left.

"Booze, sex, drugs, and strippers? Let me take this case, guys."
-Justice Thomas (likely what was said.)

Also what made me do a spittake was the question of "a bachelor party with no bachelor" and the Justices admitting that they "might've" gone to wild parties "long, long ago." Alas, Peaches has set a precedent that cops can arrest everyone for simply being at a wild party, apparently.
