You would naturally assume that this FBI official lying to Congress is a typical Trump appointee, but he actually joined the FBI in 2001 after serving in the USMC. A few years ago the FBI correctly described right wing extremism as the most serious domestic threat.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing
BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?
GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now
THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Me too. The current proposals are for visa waiver countries, basically Western Europe plus a handful of other rich countries, but not Canada. If they’re stupid enough to enact this insanity, travel to the U.S. from all countries will crater like it has from Canada.

Trump only hires people who lie as easily as he does. Imagine insisting that Trump is improving tourism while the actual statistics tell the opposite story.

I dunno. Ultimately Paramount is a public corporation that can’t tolerate Bari running CBS News into the ground indefinitely. Her only idea is to turn CBS News into Fox News, which is doomed to failure. Anyone who would be inclined to watch that sort of propaganda is already a loyal Fox News viewer.

It says people are buying the existing stockpiles of inventory from when the provinces stopped selling it. Liquor has a shelf life, so instead of pouring it down the drain, they’re selling it and donating the money to charity. They're not buying more to replace it.

Of course. The only interesting question is whether he'll try to preemptively pardon himself or trust in the super duper immunity the Supreme Court gifted him.

Oh, sure, although I've wondered a few times about the point of some corporate meetings. For my actual job (software development, documentation, and responding to customer questions), I really have nothing to complain about, sitting at a desk at home listening to the traffic report on the radio.

It blows my mind that it’s not self published. Multiple layers of editors at Simon & Schuster read and listened to this train wreck and signed off on publishing it.
