Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.

We don't know what our limits are, so to start something with the idea of being limited actually ends up limiting us.

Credit where credit is due. She's freaking great at her job. Like Ali in his prime.

Just checking in for my morning Trump scandal. Anything good? Human trafficking? A special room in the White House for Trump's afternoon motor boating?

I am starting to think this is going to be a great 4 years… maybe 8.

And so was Goebbels and THAT is really frightening. I have an EX GF like her, very confusing.

If there was a Nobel Prize for 'Lying through your teeth'…

I think that she can take a lot of the credit (or blame, depending on how you see it) for Trump being elected. If she worked for the Clinton Campaign, I suspect the election would have had different results in those swing states.

AMazing, but then i am not surprised at all. In a way the only thing that has changed is the style and general rhetoric. If it were not so damn sad, it could be funny. DEfinitely interesting years ahead of us.

On a side note, Breitbart news apparently had a news item running about an incident in a city nearby where Muslims were reported to have burned down a church on New Year's Eve. Turning a mouse into an elephant.

Apparently the Police didn't really like the Breitbart article hahah

The local newspaper, Ruhr Nachrichten, said elements of its online reporting on New Year’s Eve had been distorted by Breitbart to produce “fake news, hate and propaganda”

She was fine until this interview, and now has no credibility.

The Trump group is very worried about his legitimacy and are all over the place, but they are consistent in their denials of the recent issues. Trump doth protests to much.

This. It is really interesting to note how global and efficient right wing rhetoric has become.

I am really curious how all of this is going to develop in the next few months/years.

The whole issue with China that is currently developping does really seem to be nothing more than a great piece taken straight from Orwell's 1984. Could really be used in the classroom.

I give China 3-6 months before they annex Taiwan and reneg on the the current agreement with Hong Kong (no more one country two systems). Then I give another 6 months before China is drilling for oil off the coast of Vietnam. China will continue to flex it's might in the South China Sea until they have secured access to 100% of it. They know that the US is over extended and can't realistically protect it's allies in the area. Internal conflict within the USA only helps. Taking the US drone sub, and the latest breaching of Taiwanese airspace, these are just shots over the bow to prove to countries like Vietnam and Taiwan that the US can't protect them and they better start doing what China says. All in all it pretty much reads like a Tom Clancy novel.

The older I get the more weird stuff like Clancy and Ludlum and le Carre is getting.

Given the style of the new POTUS and his team, I think a lot could happen. But I am no expert, and just because there is a lot of rattling going on does not mean anything at all.
