[Hah!  Here's fresh sand before anyone started bitching about it; perhaps a first.  So it looks like the progressive outlets are all agreed that the sky is falling since Trump got elected.  They are also sure that the Russians and Chinese are coming and the American republic (for which they have had little use) is also lost.  Pretty soon we may have the Daily Kos, MSNBC, CNN, … digging up plans for home bomb shelters from the 1950s and getting their union schools to start teaching 'Duck and Cover' again.  gjr]

    Donald Trump gave a great speech tonight in Pennsylvania. And not one liberal was attacked! Evidence of Hillary’s people paid $1,500 for inciting violence was not evident for once. He gave a very goo pep speech and I bet he will get a lot done when he gets the reins of government.Great!

    Drain the Swamp Baby! A lifetime ban on lobbying for foreign governments, procurement officials may never work for any company they gave a Govt. contract to, 5 years of no lobbying for anyone in the administration. What a great way to get all of 0’s appointees who went GS out of government. Run revolving door whores, run now. Quit and go get the job you have already been promised. Drain the Swamp Baby! 😉

    Don. Does that apply to “O”‘s crew? I do believe Trump said “starting with his admin.”
    If it does, that’s just an added bonus. If you dig into the bag of dirty tricks, there is one way. Hire every one of “O”‘s team, put them under the umbrella of the Trump admin. for about a week, then can their happy butts.

    PaulE 454pm – I do indeed understand the use of confidential sources in journalism, and they do not apply to the present kind of reportage for confirming the seminal claim of the reports. We’ll dismiss the fact that yellow journalism is rampart and the credibility of journalists is lower than that of politicians. Basing a report on unnamed confidential sources never closes a matter, but merely claims credibility for opening it for further investigation and possible reporting.
    It seems to me that you have forgotten this firm rule of reporting. As an example, recall that Deep Throat did not close the Watergate matter and convict Nixon, but only gave impetus to where and for what to look. It was the subsequently turned up evidence with cited identifiable sources that brought Watergate to a conclusion.

    Paul Emery do you think it is OK to have confidential sources undermine our national election?

    Sheriff’s probe finds Obama birth certificate ‘fake’
    A years-long forensics investigation into the computer image of the long-form Hawaiian birth certificate image that Barack Obama released during a White House news conference during his first term and presented to the American people as an official government document concluded it is “fake.”
    The probe also confirms that those who were subjected to the derogatory “birther” label from many media outlets and Democrats were right – at least regarding the document used to establish Obama’s eligibility to be president.

    http://www.wnd.com/2016/12/investigators-find-source-for-obamas-online-birth-certification-image/
    This evidence was discussed by Lord Monckton during his Butte Tea Party presentation. He agreed the birth certificate show on the WH web site is a fake. So, where is the real certificate? Why does Obama need a fake certifcate? So many questions! So few answers.

    Was not uncovering corruption and then exposing to the public at large to inform (and influence) an election used to be the media’s job?? I think so, but I could be wrong. I don’t thing exposing where the skeletons were was called meddling back in the day.

    (CNN)The United States must either stop accusing Russia of meddling in its elections or prove it, a spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday.
    Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said it was “indecent” of the United States to “groundlessly” accuse Russia of intervention in the US election campaign, Russian state news agency Tass reported.
    “They should either stop talking about that or produce some proof at last. Otherwise it all begins to look unseemly,” Peskov reportedly said about the latest accusations that Russia was responsible for hacker attacks.

    Sierra Watch of Nevada City suing the approval of the expansion at Squaw Valley. Appears to me to be the latest “extortion” attempt by the non-prfits in the mountains. One only needs to see this done to all the subdivisions in the Martis Valley by Truckee to get the drift. MONEY! This is how they get their money to sue others. I hope Trump can change the laws to deny these thieves this “legal” way to extort.

    Why not an indoor water park Paul? It will keep the Truckee river more pristine.
    Less beer will be spilt from rafters.(not to mention less pee in the creek).
    What happened to your “tourism” sales pitch? Gotta have something that will actually draw in tourists.

    Oh the hand wringing!! During Chinese war exercises the US Navy decides it would be a good time to send a “scientific” probe under the war ships to study “water temperature and map the ocean floor.” Said probe gets nabbed and the indignant right declares it an act of aggression if not war. Oh my.
