“I don’t know who the whistleblower is. Number two, I think we ought to follow the law." And the law says you don't get to know the identity of the whistleblower. So, if you truly "think we ought to follow the law" then, no, you don't get to call the whistleblower. Not sure if this is a case of hypocrisy or stupidity.

‘Trump is terrified’ and ‘addicted to conflict’: Psychiatrist Justin Frank on the ...

mcgeo52 comments on Dec 24, 2019:

# ‘Trump is terrified’ and ‘addicted to conflict’: Psychiatrist Justin Frank on the president’s mental decompensation ## Written by Chauncey DeVega / Salon December 23, 2019 Donald Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives last week. He is now the third president to be impeached, and will be the first to run for re-election after impeachment. Neither previous impeachment involved the blatant corruption of foreign policy seen in Trump’s apparent plot to extort the president of Ukraine into aiding him in the 2020 election. In the days following Trump’s impeachment new evidence of his wrongdoing has been uncovered. On Friday, a Freedom of Information request by the Center for Public Integrity uncovered documents showing that almost immediately after Trump’s July 25 shakedown conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, military aid to that country was stopped. The Washington Post reported last Thursday that officials within the Trump administration were concerned that on matters regarding Ukraine and Russian interference in the 2016 election, the president has been following the personal dictates of Vladimir Putin. This is further evidence that Donald Trump is doing Putin’s bidding, and working to advance Russia’s interests over those of the United States. Donald Trump may be stained by another singular “distinction” as well. Because Republican senators have already promised to ignore any and all evidence against Donald Trump — ensuring that under no circumstances will he be convicted and removed from office — Speaker Nancy Pelosi has not yet forwarded the articles of impeachment to the Senate. If the Republicans refuse to put service to the country and the Constitution over partisan loyalty, then Trump may be impeached for all time, but neither convicted nor acquitted. At the exact moment he was being impeached, Donald Trump was giving a speech at a campaign rally in Battle Creek, Michigan. He followed his usual routine of violent threats, lies, hate-mongering and other repugnant behavior. He raged at Pelosi and the Democrats, calling them “traitors” involved in a “witch hunt” against him. He implied that his opponents, such as the late Rep. John Dingell, a Michigan Democrat, will burn in hell. Trump has recently become obsessed with toilets and human waste, and has trained his faithful to engage in a scatological call-and-response routine. None of this should be surprising. Trump previewed his reaction to being impeached in a hate-filled and threatening letter to Pelosi last Tuesday which leading mental health professionals have described as “psychotic.” Dr. Justin Frank is a former clinical professor of psychiatry at the George Washington University Medical ...

The entire City Council was against him. They refused to fund even his secretary, much less any of his proposed programs. He built a citizens' movement to go around them and get things done. Eventually the establishment types saw what he was accomplishing and started to join in. He won his third term, running against a candidate backed by both the Democrats and the Republicans, with three quarters of the vote. That is why his slogan is, "Not me. Us." He really means it.

Really bad reporting. She says that Mississippi's health care cost is 16% of median income while Massachusetts health care costs 8.4% of median income, which she says is about half that amount. Sounds really terrible until you run the percentages against median household income. Mississippi: $43,529 x 16% = $6964.64 (7% higher) Massachusetts: $77,385 8.4% $6500.34 Almost twice? Hardly. While 7% of a large enough number can be significant, it is almost within the margin of error.

mcgeo52 comments on Dec 8, 2019:

We obviously need campaign reform. I do not support publicly financed campaigns. Here is the content of a note I posted on Facebook: Public funding of election campaigns does to campaigns what the ACA did to health care. It puts money from our pockets into the pockets of the oligarchs, in the case of elections this would mean paying tax dollars to the corporations that own the radio and TV stations and the cable channels. The problem is the money in politics. Just throwing taxpayer money at the problem doesn't make it go away. We need to take a different approach and take the money out of the equation. Start by looking at where the money goes, election campaigns. And 90%+ of that money goes to advertising on radio, TV and cable. Those media are all licensed for the public good. What public good is being served by subverting our democracy? We need to enforce the existing laws and regulations regarding equal time for candidates and ballot measures, specifically 47 USC 315 and 47 CFR 73.1941 for broadcast and 47 CFR 76.205 & 76.206 for cable. Once we have done that we institute an income tax of 110% of the gross income received by any licensed media for political advertising, direct, indirect, any and all. Then enforce 47 USC 317 and 47 CFR 73.1212(e) for full disclosure of who pays for political ads. Will this completely solve the problem? No, the fundamental problem is human nature. But it will level the playing field. And we don't have to amend the Constitution, just enforce the laws we have and add one very limited tax.
