Comments on: Random Stuff https://whynow.dumka.us/2017/02/21/random-stuff-2/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Sun, 05 Mar 2017 01:22:10 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2017/02/21/random-stuff-2/comment-page-1/#comment-84571 Sun, 05 Mar 2017 01:22:10 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=38684#comment-84571 You don’t need a hall pass or even correct change to watch the Russian embassy – it’s a pre-approved target. So, the fact that a warrant was applied for and granted means there was ‘probable cause’ to present to a judge that something was going on.

The problem isn’t meeting with the Russians, the problem begins when you lie about meeting with the Russians, and a pattern develops that indicates collusion. When Flynn talked to the Russian ambassador about sanctions and the Russians changed their normal response to sanctions, lots of bells and whistles went off.

Given how hard FBI Director Comey worked to keep Clinton’s e-mail server in the news during the campaign there was definitely a ‘witch hunt’ going on, but it had nothing to do with Drumpf & his minions. With Sessions the questions about meetings with the Russians were both written and oral. If it was all in a day’s work for a Senator, why lie about it? It was a stupid lie – one of the meetings was in Sessions’ Senate office which is documented a dozen ways because of security

There are a half dozen or so senior members of the SCOTUS’s team who have ties to Russia and Drumpf was saying nice things about Vlad during the campaign, so a lot of wires were tripped. The problem is that the current occupants of the White House aren’t smart enough to create plausible deniability,. They think their denying of reality should be assumed to be plausible based on the alternate facts doctrine.

Former NSA Analyst Pulls No Punches About Trump Criminal Collusion With Russia

Former NSA analyst John Schindler mocked President Trump and said it wasn’t smart to attack spies and the press “when you colluded with the Kremlin to get elected.”

Our ABC has a good roundup of the latest Trumper news in one thread here:

Trump flashes anger over Sessions recusal, Russia stories in tense Oval Office meeting and more…

And some of the lastest *staff* Tweets:

Rogue POTUS Staff‏:
POTUS plays so much more golf than the media knows. The idea this is a “working weekend” is a joke. It’s a naps/golf/naps weekend.
This cannot be understated: The President of the United States is a Russian espionage agent.
By definition, anyone secretly working against the country in favor, or the under control, of a foreign government, is a espionage agent.
As I said before, Pres is out to make Obama the scapegoat – beating the birther drums again. This is the defense he’s chosen.

Rogue WH Snr Advisor‏:
Pres keeps yelling about how “…Obama met with Putin! Where was the investigation there?!”
Wiretap tweetstorm is attempt to get ahead of soon-to-break real story & makes reality probable cause seem “fake” – at least thats the idea.
SIGINT collection authorized per FISA is hardly illegal wiretapping. If POTUS has evidence of different, he needs to show it – or shut up.
People forget birtherism is how Pres started political career. He knows it worked once for him & a thinks derivative could work again.

And the best for last:
EXCLUSIVE: FBI ‘Granted FISA Warrant’ Covering Trump Camp’s Ties To Russia

John McCain passes dossier alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts to FBI

Yeah, I think Bannon/Trumper made a HUGE mistake pissing off McCain! 😆 “Ahh McCain, You’ve done it again!”

The wheel is definitely coming off! I’d even say, there is an iceberg directly ahead! 😆

Conflict between the Viking/Nordic nations and the Rus/Russians has been going on for about 1400 years, so there’s no reason to expect a change. The Vikings had a trade route on the rivers between the eastern Baltic and the Black Sea through the heart of Kievian Russia to Constantinople, and are the reason ‘Slav’ became ‘slave’.

Just for you, Kryten

I’m tired of so-called liberal/progressive Democrats who refuse to notice that Wall Street and big banks are problem, not the solution. If they want to gamble, let them crash & burn and bail out the victims, not the perpetrators.

I would love Senator Warren to run just to watch Jamie Dimon lose control of his bladder. She’s a real teacher and knows how to deal with ‘children’.

Well, SCROTUS claims to be a hotelier like Basil… 👿

Why Sweden is bringing back the military draft

I’d have thought more… Hogan’s Heroes maybe? With trump as Klink. 😉 But yes, Fawlty Towers is apropos! Oh! McHales Navy, Trump is Cap. Binghamton (Old Leadbottom)! LOL

Won’t know until I get it. And from reports, it will probably vary quite a bit day-to-day. And many report serious dropouts & loss of connectivity when the Nodes become seriously congested (due to both distance between nodes & over-provisioning!) 🙁 Also, the NBN Co. charge outrageous prices for the back-haul bandwidth! Something like $17k/Mth for 1 Gb! So many ISP’s are just buying the minimum they can get away with! Which is why the performance guarantee is a joke! If I get the minimum of 25%, you’ll be better off than I will. *shrug*

And yes, she rocks! She was the only state attorney general who didn’t go for the give-away settlement negotiated by the Obama Justice Department with the big banks and instead negotiated a bigger settlement for California. I’m quite happy that she’s my Senator now. She’s not running for president in four years though, she’s nowhere near where she needs to be for that and she knows it. Elizabeth Warren, on the other hand… ooh, that would make me smile.

“Fawlty Towers, with fewer laughs and less competence.” Ouch!

US consumers get screwed like all of the other banana republics as corporations buy corrupt politicians.

So far this administration reminds of Fawlty Towers, with fewer laughs and less competence.
