They need to stack the Court with social conservatives or pass a constitutional amendment. The latter ain't happening, so their only hope is a bunch of Gorsuches.


I got an email today from Robert Reich at Common Cause informing me that the Republicans are only 6 states short in their attempt to force a Constitutional Convention. The effort is apparently being funded by the Kochs.

Yeah, getting to 34 might be a bit of a challenge for them.

I've heard people with very low intelligence make this same point, as if they know better than the world’s best scientists.

Now I’m not saying this guy has low intelligence ... wait, that’s exactly what I’m saying.

The “warming” label really backfired. It also opened the door for morons making chuckling comments to other morons out the heat.

IoT hack of DC security cameras! There was an article a month or so ago about Chinese cameras with back doors. Some of these were employs at embassies, and military bases for parameter security (these have been replaced and auto approval on the GSA schedule has been revoked). These are embedded in hundreds of white label brands. Dimes to doughnuts these cameras are the same manufacturer.

Rasmussen Poll shows Trump at 46% APPROVE this morning, with 53% DISAPPROVE that ties him with Obama for December 2009, which was 46% APPROVE, 53% DISAPPROVE.

Of course Rasmussen is like +10 over every other poll. That said, the crowing has begun!

Do you think Trump asked about his 548 home runs?

Trump is right about how much the times sucks these days. I've never read a more defensive news article, and he sure likes the first person. Like trump himself. Perhaps that's why they got on so well.

As I've said before, the media are mostly pro trump.

The PTB in the Repub party aren't even trying to do anything when it comes to roe v wade. The talking point they repeat over and over again that it can't be done is so old. The Christians in this country that are so opposed to abortion should realize the Repub's aren't getting it done for them. The message out there should BE this and that they should start their own political party to get the job done. Christians will never see any headway in this as long as they hang on to the Repub party.

:(
A bombing has targeted the funeral of a local official in eastern Afghanistan, killing at least 17 people.

Noor Ahmad Habibi, deputy spokesman for the governor of Nangarhar province, said a rickshaw rigged with explosives went off Sunday among people gathered in the provincial capital, Jalalabad, to mourn a former district chief. He said around 13 other people were wounded.

Habibi said initial reports were that a suicide bomber was behind the attack, but that authorities now believe it was a remotely-detonated explosion.

No one immediately claimed the attack. The Taliban denied any involvement. An Islamic State affiliate is active in Nangarhar province and has targeted officials and security forces in the past.

Trump's approval /disapproval hasn't really budged in the last 5 months, so I'm as sick of the crowing when it slides down by decimals. It just is what it is, barring war (which will bring it up) or stock market collapse (down) . I'm not rooting for either, mind you. Of course, he's still governing like people care what he said in 2015, so it will be "interesting" to see what happens when he runs out of those talking points.
