[Lots to talk about, but my attention is still on education which for the average American student is getting dicier by the year. Here is a bit on the new fad of dual enrollment programs which have high school seniors taking courses also form local community colleges, the longer term benefit of which has yet to be demonstrated. gjr]

The New York Times latest excuse: Trump makes it difficult for journalists to be objective and unbiased. Poor babies. Maybe the Snowflakes of the Left Wing Industrial Media Complex need some warm cocoa and pictures of aborable puppies to make their job less difficult.
Shoe, who is seen describing her job as curating the Times‘ front pages, also describes the approach of American journalists towards covering Trump during the 2016 election: “I think that one of the things that maybe journalists were thinking about is, like, “Oh, if we write about him, about how, like, insanely crazy he is and how ludicrous his policies are, then maybe people will read about it and be, like, ‘Oh, wow, like, we shouldn’t vote for him.’” In her description, the Times‘ front page is used to set the media narrative against Trump.
She also is shown describing President Trump as “apologetic toward white supremacists” due to his response to the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, earlier this year, and says that Trump makes it difficult for journalists to be objective and unbiased.
In addition, Shoe is shown talking about the Times attracting liberal readers due to its coverage of Trump, and suggests that the Times feeds the demands of its audience through the TONE of its coverage.”

Sorry to burst your bubble, Todd, but as it is defined in the Constitution, because we weren’t at War with Russia at the time there is no Treason possible as she neither waged war against the US (insert your cutesy zinger to the contrary here) or gave aid and comfort to those waging War against the US. Not in wartime, there ain’t no treason.

Oops! don’t get fooled again! The clinton/uranium story is pure right wing propaganda and, once again, Todd falls for and passes along fake news because it is what he wants to believe.
It seems to me that passing along fake news stories is divisive and hurts our country. Is that treason? The “war”excuse for not charging treason seems to be non-functional as our country is constantly at war somewhere.

“The incriminating evidence was uncovered by The Hill (John Solomon and Alison Spann) and Circa News (Sara Carter). Their dogged reporting reveals that the FBI gathered a multitude of documents, secret recordings, intercepted emails, financial records, and eyewitnesses accounts showing that Russian nuclear officials directed millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and hundreds of thousands of dollars to Bill Clinton during the very time that Hillary Clinton presided over a governing body which unanimously approved the sale of one-fifth of America’s uranium supply to Russia. ”

“Now that the Trump Administration is working to shred those environmentally-focused rules…” I think ‘shred those rules’ is kinda like code for dereg.
Of course the article itself is comical. But it really is a mystery why folks would complain about Trump and then demand that people who support Trump should ‘list’ the grievances that the anti-Trumpers have against Trump. I mean if you can’t keep track of your own belly-aches – ???

“If the unsubstantiated dossier information was entered as verifiable information before a FISA court, the implications are “staggering,” former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova told TheDCNF.
That would mean the Obama administration pursued “a type of manipulation of intelligence data and false intelligence data to mislead a court,” diGenova said. “It’s staggering in terms of its implications.”
The possibility the Obama administration might use the unproven allegations before a FISA court “constitutes a crime of unbelievable dimensions,” he said, adding: “It requires the empanelment of a federal grand jury.” ”
