How much of the Steele dossier is verified? How much of it has been discredited? Who is a more credible person? Blaisey-ford or Kavanaugh? Stick to football- your team is going to get stomped.

If you ever have the chance, take a transcript of one of his ramblings- copy and past it into a text to speech app- that **** is crazy funny.

During all this... I was curious as to the state of the WH press briefing.. apparently its been over 200 days since the last one. https://thehill.com/homenews/media/462587-white-house-press-secretary-defends-lack-of-daily-briefings-trump-is-the-most https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/09/stephanie-grisham-vs-media New press secretary hasn't even given a WH press briefing...

I don't think washing your bedding after shitting the bed counts... does it? Inherit 15+ bil surplus.... post a 5 bil surplus (down 10bil) run 6 consecutive deficits only to post a meager 1,9 bil surplus (made with very questionable means) in an election year...

Canadian Politics
My Apologies- I didn't think we needed to hear about how hrper inherited a surplus from the Liberals, frittering it away and then post 6 consecutive deficits and then posting a questionable surplus aided by a fire sale of the governments assets to give the optics of sound fiscal stewardship in an election year.

The WH just sent it's Ukraine talking points to the Democratic Party in Congress. I am not even making this **** up:

God I hope so... There should be a whole lot more of these trump enablers that get crushed by justice.

Also... The Barr summary was very effective. There is no Barr summary for the Ukrainian shake down.

Regardless of how this shakes out in terms of trump being held to actual accountability and what the voters do in 2020- The Democratic Party did it's constitutionally mandated job and defended the constitution. History will show that they are on the right side of this.

I feel this will be making a big come back.

Agreed. I think that transcript and the whistle blowers testimony might move the needle a bit... My hope is that with impeachment, they get better investigative powers and more teeth to actually holds the stonewalled accountable. We'll see though... gotta temper those expectations... The Mueller report was damning as hell and barely moved the needle.

Prison would a good start. I would hope there is enough crominal evidence against the trump org to warrant involuntary dissolution of their corporate empire... then we would be getting somewhere... like a real life Schitt's Creek where the patriarch is left in prison to die- that is reality TV that I would watch....

Canadian Politics
I recall Harper ran 7 deficits and a very janky surplus of about a modest 2 bil? IIRC.. they made that by selling off a few crown corps (profitable ones) and selling in a fire sale all of the GM stock they acquired from the bail out... Them Cons- so fiscally astute! The reality of the conservative game (con game) is to starve the beast to force cuts to social safety nets. Cut the GST. Oh **** we have HUGE deficits! We have to tighten our belts and cut welfare programs! It's a scam. I don't want to have to deal with those shenanigans anymore- leave my pensionable age alone, I don't want to wait an extra few years.

The Environment Thread
Nuclear power is a solution that just creates another problem. Disposing of nuclear waste has been an issue that hasn't been resolved in 40 years- if you can resolve that, then yeah have at it. Bernie's plan is knee jerk, he should look into more and maybe look into disposing of the nuclear waste in a responsible manner. John Oliver had an informative and entertaining segment on it two years ago. Also... I find it odd that you reference James Hansen, when everything he stands for regarding climate change you just plug your ears and shut your eyes about. Is his opinion only valid when it matches your ideology?
