'There has been a coup': Bernstein on Trump's role in January 6 riot
In order to get into court and stay there long enough to damage Congressional oversight, he needs to clear the first hurdle of "standing", because he is no longer President, he has no standing to claim executive privilege, that position resides in the hands of President Biden, so Trump can petition the court but he cannot stay and be heard.

Abdul Qahar Balkhi: Is the Taliban 2.0 any different? | Talk to Al Jazeera
Really juvenile he thinks we don't know that the Taliban isn't unified and is undisciplined. It's made up of factions that Kabul cannot exert sufficient control over to make their offers, agreements, and contracts trustworthy. They seem to think that nice words can paper over untrustworthiness and other ills that prevent the world from committing resources to them. They've got a lot to learn about governing a nation and I'm afraid there will not be enough time for them to do so and avert the onrushing disaster.

Even Putin choked on that one.
How the heck can congress discharge its oversight duties if everyone can stonewall and defeat the exercise using the courts? In short, Congress would have no oversight power at all.

U.S. Economy Added 194,000 Jobs in September
Obviously, people with enough money/credit to go to college are forced to reason that the higher-paying professions are the only reasonable way to acquit their earnings challenge otherwise two-year community graduates might wind up eating their lunch.

Imagine that, people demanding their "right" to become infected, incubate and spread a disease be protected. If one wants to be taken seriously they should not advocate exposing their children to a highly contagious disease. That is because we sincerely doubt that anyone really wants to see their children get sick and possibly die whether they actually understand what they are advocating or not.
Daniel Goldman: Donald Trump Committed Obstruction Of Justice
While people are fretting over the CIA assets being killed and bad intel and such, how many remember that Trump appointed unqualified people to CIA offices and gave security clearances to people not qualified to hold them. I'd say that was a recipe for disaster in a field where a name and address or a date would allow our intelligence adversaries to locate and neutralize our assets. Oh, did Bob Bar and Kushner lose their security clearances yet?

Chris Hayes Has A Feeling Tucker Carlson Might Be About To Quit Fox News
Why would anyone think they have the right to catch, incubate and spread diseases around freely? I think that if anyone knew you were spreading disease they would demand that you be detained and quarantined if not punished and imprisoned.

Investment Companies Pricing Out Homebuyers
These investment groups, I believe, are masters at tax avoidance schemes meaning that local taxes unpaid will allow government services to decline and result in renters simply moving away in the end leaving yet another township in abhorrent decline. The government needs to break up this challenge to homeownership or very bad things are on the horizon.
Consider: There is no incentive for renters to improve the rental property. Often there is some disagreement between renters and landlords over repairs to the properties. If the cost of repairs is great, renters may opt to simply leave. While absentee landlords may opt to take time to hash out with insurance carriers over issues concerning repairs or replacement. This can leave a neighborhood with persistent eyesores that can reduce the desirability of the neighborhood causing more renters to leave. The result is that the once desirable neighborhood becomes a slum of absentee landlords. Few people who rent houses consider renting long term. Without the permanence of long-term homeowners, one cannot know what they are getting into since renters turnover at a high rate. This business model is likely to fade over time in popularity.

Former Republican Strategist Running For Lt. Governor in Texas
If Texas were part of the national grid, when you needed energy you would get it at a reasonable cost from the rest of the grid and when you had excess energy you could sell it to the national grid and that would help keep your own energy prices either stable or reduced.
Lawyer For Facebook Whistleblower On Comparisons To “Big Tobacco”
Facebook lawyer uses fallacious: "Big Wave eats little wave" argument.
For example: "To suggest that fixing my little wave would fix (Big Wave) all the ills of everything everywhere is unfair" No, no one thinks that the entire Republican Party and their followers is on Facebook, no one is suggesting it. What is being suggested is that those who are on Facebook are contributors to the problem because of facebook's effort to keep them engaged so that ad revenues increase.

How about a vacancy tax on units held vacant for a year? The tax would turn into a tax credit that would amortize over the life of the leasehold. That would make it less attractive to hold empty units as investment commodities that will claim tax credits by depreciation.
