I was a firefighter rule 1 is no matter how serious the problem is you do not go in while there is any kind of conflict going on. They would not be putting out fires while there was police action.

Lying bastard.

until his speaking tour starts.

I've never invested in the stock market before, but see that it is past time to dig in, and find some different, more deserving companies to invest my nickels in.

Screw Well's Fargo and Citibank!

From your link (emphasis mine):

... JEREMY SCAHILL: Yeah. It would be an amusing, you know, Senate confirmation hearing. I mean, what’s potentially more likely, but in the same category, is Sheriff David Clarke of Milwaukee County, who has, you know, said—called Black Lives Matter—he’s African-American himself, but has called Black Lives Matter subhuman, has said that there is no such thing as police brutality, who led the chants of "Blue lives matter" at the Republican National Convention and is a regular on Bill O’Reilly’s show and others on—and Hannity on Fox News.

Juan, one thing I forgot to mention when we were talking about the Cabinet that Trump is putting together on the national security level, we should remember that national security adviser is not Senate-confirmed. And it’s an extraordinarily powerful position that is—has definitions going back to 1947, but basically is like a parallel, unaccountable national security apparatus, and it’s very secretive how it operates, and it’s up to the whims of a particular administration. But also, Flynn and Mattis, if Mattis is to be defense secretary, would require waivers to be issued for them, because you’re not allowed to go from uniform within the last seven years to a civilian position without a waiver from Congress. Why is that? It’s because there has to be chain of command where civilians are directing the military; otherwise, you start to veer into territory of a military dictatorship or a military state. And it seems like that’s part of what Trump actually wants. It could be coincidence that these guys were just recent military people. But you do have to, because it’s Trump, take into account the possibility that he really does want what amounts to a dictatorship of the executive branch, where these policies actually are dictated by the military and not necessarily the civilian chain of command, outside of him and Pence. ...

Not just 'because it's Trump' - the Clintons would have been in their element and only Bernie or Jill would have defied TPTB and therefore had to be crushed, along with their supporters.

Want to bet that all such appointments were agreed upon prior to the selection, between whoever gets to further enrich themselves in playing President/VP this time and TPTB, as TPTB are reaching the culmination of a long-running global takeover attempt intended to be falsely 'legalized' by traitorous 'trade deals' incorporating a mechanism illegally and unconstitutionally handing over - by public servants sworn and paid by the public to maintain and defend these - law/government/democracy/people and their countries to hostile and destructive self-interests?

We see the behaviours of such ruthless self-interests in a corporate/military (fascist) state as they begin to be further unleashed, even in democracies founded on the principles of law and order in the public interest, in what they already regard as their countries/world to destroy as they will in the mindless pursuit of profit. Always starting with those perceived as most vulnerable...

The TPP is not dead - this is yet more lying in order to quietly pass it, while the prospective traitors 'leading' other countries are still being pressured into ratifying it. But all private 'agreements' unlawfully and unconstitutionally pretending to 'legally' give away any of the inherent rights of humanity/citizens must die, or we all will.

they were putting out.
I read about this on my local website here in Utah and almost every comment was in favor of the cops using the water. So unbelievable the cruelty in this country.
