Cable companies will survive by providing broadband. So, what they will try to do is turn broadband back to cable. With net neutrality, the cable side of the cable tv business would be dead. In essence, getting rid of net neutrality save the cable tv model. Its not about isps, its about cable tv. Those two overlap a lot, which is why I think so many missed why this really matters.


Well you really can’t blame the cable companies for trying right?
I would rather see you lose than win myself

Statement from CNN re the Stephen Miller interview with @jaketapper on @CNNSotu:

“The segment was over and Mr. Miller was politely asked to leave the set multiple times—after refusing to leave, he was escorted out by security.”

He can't even copy and paste a quote for the NY Post.

Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump
“His is turning out to be an enormously consensual presidency. So much so that...there has never been a day that I wished Hillary Clinton were President. Not one. Indeed, as Trump’s accomplishments accumulate, the mere thought of Clinton in the W.H., doubling down on Obama’s.....

President Donald Trump's official schedule in the White House has gotten shorter since the beginning of his presidency.

The news site Axios obtained private schedules that list Trump as having "executive time" in the Oval Office from about 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. each day, but really the President often spends that time in his residence, watching TV, tweeting and making phone calls.

The schedules Axios refers to in its report are used internally in the White House and are more detailed than those released publicly, the news site reports.

Don't understand this Oprah for president stuff. What does she know about foreign policy or passing laws or anything government related for that matter?

She's an inspiring person, but I don't want her to run.

I don't know where it started but she's never indicated that she's running or is even interested. It's wishful thinking by some.

She could win on name recognition alone, and could it be worse then today? She actually could get ‘the best people’ on her team. As long as Gale gets kicked to the curb.

Well, There's this whole "not a politician" thing that dumb people like. Sort of like people who get charged with a crime and decide to have an architect defend them, because he's not a lawyer or who have an accountant perform surgery because she's not a doctor.

People "joke" about it, sure. But also think they are half serious. She won an award at the Golden Globes so the "jokes" were in full force last night. Even JH thinks she'd win!

Of course it is a joke, but in this world Oprah vs Trump, Battle of the Network Stars! Hey, it is actually the most likely way that you get Obama back (i think it is 'Designated Survivor' that has the former president in the cabinet - that show got stupid quickly). She could ask Barry to put the band back together, then he could run a shadow government. that is next level stupid thinking right there.

So Bannon is apologizing for his comments, calls it sloppy reporting, and says that the context is (fall guy) Manifort, not Trickle down Donnie. Donnie is a great man and patriot he sez. Seem that I read that in the presser that he would not authorize for release last week, before the Mercers cut off support (he must live above his means if he spent all the Seinfeld royalties already). Now that he is cash strapped, its time to beg! DJT wil love that. Public groveling. #SAD #4reelzSAD

But, lets dissect. In Bannon's assessment, that he wants you to believe, Paul Manifort is a traitor, terrible human, and should have gone to the FBI for being at a meeting that Donnie set-up, hosted, sought dirt on Hillary, did who knows what else, and then maybe brought the guest by for a meet and greet with dad. That is 1+1=Orange math there, where Orange is not a variable standing in for a number, but an actual piece of fruit.

No word on his other comments about dearest daughter, and favorite son-in-law.

Color me stupid Monday is here, and we don't even get a presidential sponsored and produced awards show to name fakest of the fake news.
