I don't really mind divulging things like that because it is so broad; but, remember, one important thing about info on the net: sometimes it isn't true; for all you know, I might be in the house next door to you... Well, given I have mentioned before that I live in Hollywood, a look at a district map could have told anyone who is our Congressman... Quote:
So far as I know, Schiff hasn't had any affairs with porn stars, lied to a SC, or tried to obstruct justice, so you're gonna have to wait on that dossier... There is an interesting part of Schiff's background: Quote:
So, Schiff has a bit of experience in matters dealing with US government officials hobnobbing with Russia, and he got a conviction in that case. His past experience with prosecuting espionage (and treason) gives him a bit of a unique perspective in the current situation(s)... <O>

Lest we forget
https://object.cato.org/sites/cato.o.../pdf/pa395.pdf Because numerous crimes at Waco have gone unpunished, the people serving in our federal police agencies may well come to the conclusion that it is permissible to recklessly endanger the lives of innocent people, lie to newspapers, obstruct congressional subpoenas, and give misleading testimony in our courtrooms. If such activity becomes more common than it is today, those agencies will surely become lawless and unaccountable. The only way to counter that danger is for the American people to distrust government officials, limit their powers, and demand accountability. In 1997 FBI director Louis Freeh told Congress, “We are potentially the most dangerous agency in the country if we are not scrutinized carefully.” The carnage at Waco is grisly testament to that.

Don't blame Waco Rockstar or the people of Waco. I grew up in Waco in blackland and it is full of lovely nice Texas people.
If it's the FBI or the US government you are angered at ... suppress your anger for they are no longer in charge (21) years later of anything remotely connected to the subject you are bringing up. Now Waco has new problems with biker gangs having warfare right in a local restaurant parking lot. God bless America

I'm still not sure the authorities aren't mostly responsible for that little fiasco either.

It is a pity that Trump now moves on to his next agenda, destroying trade relations with close partners. There seem enough, reasonable people (like in the Pentagon) opposing that step but it seems the executive is now more or less a one man show, making great 'deals'.
I can understand a bit the frustration concerning cheap steal from China but in the EU and Canada there is no dumping, nor are the environmental regulations lower than in the US. Germany for instance, has even a disadvantage due to higher energy prices in general. Where are the Republicans , having claimed free and fair markets in the past ? A couple of weeks ago he claimed the rising stock markets would be due to his actions. If he continues this way until the end of his presidency, will he then also take over the responsibilities of the crashed stock market ? We all know the answer... It is really not easy being an Atlanticist these days... The last sentence of https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...83644756660224 is the joke of the month, for sure; the other tweet that trade wars 'would be good' speaks also for itself Last edited by Hawk66; 03-02-18 at 08:33 AM. |

Almost always when the Donald lambasts about "unfair!" (TM) trade, what he really means is a branch of American industry that is not modern and has been delayed with modernizations since - in some cases - decades, and thus is uncompetitive. The "unfair!" (TM) business practices in fact are own weakness made in the USA.
The Donald knows nothing about economy, I think. He mistakes "competently managing" with "daringly gambling." His own businessman career is that of a hazardeur, and gambler - who got away with it. Competence I think has much less to do with it - being a convincing imposter capable of blinding people has a lot do to with it. The hundreds of law acts against him, over 500 I seem to recall, are a clear indication who pays the price for his stageacting. Never himself (that would be "unfair!" (TM) ), always the others. The other economic actors in the world, including the EU, will not sit still, but will retaliate in full and equivalent proportions. The EU may be a military dwarf, but economically it is a giant, so is China. Stupid wars are wars that are not needed, but are only wanted. Dont expect others to become voluntarily weaker, Donald. Show how America could become stronger by its own means. I exclude specifically means and tactics used in international trade that are not so much just unfair, but simply criminal and a violation of international treaties. Product piracy for example. This latest showact in the Donaldinarium's stage program will backfire for America. It will damage others as well, yes. But it will damage America as well, proportionally, or even bigger.

Indeed and IIRC, there were changes made at both the FBI and the ATF as direct result from the Waco incident as well as the Ruby Ridge incident to prevent these kinds of incidents from happening in the future.

Therefore we shouldnt be too trusting in lawenforcement/government/party to always do the right thing. Rather we ought carefully scrutinize their actions. So warned by the director of the FBI 4 years afterwards when said of the very organization he was placed in charge of: “We are potentially the most dangerous agency in the country if we are not scrutinized carefully.”
