Trump: See…all these experts know the sky is green.

Reporter: The Prime Minister of Ireland says that you’re probably joking about this.

He must have been on his golf course and seen it reflected in the sea on his visit earlier this month. Unless he was here on St. Patrick Day when we dye it green for the day 🙂

Reporter: When you claimed the sky was green…

Trump: Yeah the sky is green.

Reporter: What do you mean?

Trump: It’s green. Look up…its green.

Reporter: The sky is sometimes grey or even red at dawn but its definitely blue right now.

Trump: Its’ green.

Reporter: I’ve never seen the sky green. Is this a new thing?

Trump: It’s always…[Read more]

the easiest way to make a big splash?

There may be a little truth to that. But honestly…if a terrorist bomb went off in China (anywhere) and most especially in XingXiang it would create a global media storm. Europe has a terrorist bomb or a public car trampling frequently. There are lots of enormous cities in China with zero history of civil…[Read more]

Strong Western influence and military in their home turf…

Belgium has no military presence in Syria/Iraq/Jordan/Palestine. Nor does Denmark. It’s hard for me to understand why you’d blow up a café in  Copenhagen or blow up a metro train in Brussels (where a third of the population is muslim) unless it was for a general sense that their sphere o…[Read more]

I sometimes socialize with a few ex-Marines from a customer site. We recently had a conversation about “how the new regime (their term) is suffering from a self-inflicted bad case of swamp fever” and that Trump and his appointees are fast creating threats to the national security of the USA. Externally by dealing with corrupt foreign governments…[Read more]

It is difficult to understand the mind-set of people like Roy Moore who is again running for Senate. He must, to some degree, hold the electorate of Alabama in contempt. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo is awaiting the Rapture while Mike Pence is certain he cannot serve two masters. But the biggest threat from within to America must be from the new…[Read more]

I still say people like that should be out fighting the wildfires, floods, etc., rather than sit back in their air conditioned offices watching it all…….when they have the bloody time!

Chaney, Pence, Trump, Schlaffy, FOX news, Limbaugh, Coulter etc. No body does bullshit artistry better than them. They could convince thousands overnight that the sky is green or that there is a anti-Christian police force in New York. I am in awe at their ability to know something is pure bullshit, repeat the same lie endlessly…in the face of p…[Read more]

Yes Unseen you are totally right. When academic research begins to support ideas you don’t like…you can always start finding flaws in it. I personally remember the first time I questioned research methods I never question otherwise, when the results went against everything I believed. I also like how, once, when I was horrified to read research…[Read more]

Because they’re smart enough to know not to fuck with China LOL! To me at least that’s blaringly obvious.

It’s not that simple. China has grown militarily but they hardly have as much intellligence capabilities nor the kind of illegal special opps or surgical strike experience as the united states. The point is, Al Qaida fucked with the US and the…[Read more]

It might be time to change jobs and get a fresh start with another employer.

It reminds me of someone who told a gay friend who was discriminated at work “just go find another job where they are less homophobic”. It was the guys dream job where he invested a lot of sweat, hours, dedication and passion…but yeah…abandoning what you’ve built for…[Read more]

you can’t just look at this stuff in black-and-white

Ivy that is such a ridculous example. Work place seniority can easily be controlled for in statistical analysis. As can pregnancy as well as a long list of sterotypes that claim women are: less educated, less ambitious, less self-sacraficing, less dedicated, less cooperative, less intelligent a…[Read more]
