Imminent Strange New Respect For The Donald?

We are engaged in another national screamfest on guns and at Resistance HQ they turn their lonely eyes to... Trump?

Another Shooting, Another Gun Debate. Will the Outcome Be the Same?

Maybe not! Partly because rather than try to propose something specific that we can evaluate the gun control side has opted to hide behind emotional teenagers. Are we talking about banning "assault weapons", AR-15s, semiautomatic rifles, or what? Don't ask - it's for the children!

However, the Times notes that help may arrive from an unexpected source:

Another difference [in this debate] is an unpredictable president who belongs to the National Rifle Association and promotes the N.R.A.-favored solution of arming trained teachers but has also embraced a couple of modest gun control measures opposed by gun rights groups.

It's Nixon-to-China, except that Trump supported an assault weapons ban in 2000. Back to the Times, where (much later) we hear about Trump again:

In the days after the shooting, Mr. Trump consulted advisers as well as Chris W. Cox, the N.R.A.’s chief lobbyist. The president called Senator John Cornyn of Texas, the Republican whip, who was traveling in the Middle East, to discuss his bill with Mr. Murphy requiring states and federal agencies to report more often to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System offenses that would bar gun purchases.

“These kids, they’re organizing, they want action,” an aide told Mr. Trump.

“I want action, too,” he replied, according to another aide. “That’s why I ran for president.”

What about #Resist?!?

At the request of Gov. Rick Scott of Florida, Mr. Trump called a girl wounded in the attack, and afterward, the call seemed to remain on his mind, as he kept bringing it up with aides. Last Friday, he visited a Florida hospital and met victims, a visit still on his mind when he had dinner Saturday night at his Mar-a-Lago estate with his sons Donald Jr. and Eric, his daughter-in-law Lara and the Fox News commentator Geraldo Rivera.

The president noted that the injuries he saw were more grisly than those portrayed in the movies. “He was definitely horrified by the severity, the savagery of those wounds that the children suffered,” Mr. Rivera recalled. “And he kept saying, ‘How do you recover from that?’”

Mr. Trump mentioned tightening background checks. “He brought up how absurd it is that someone can buy a gun even though they’re on the no-fly list,” Mr. Rivera said. Asked for his opinion, Mr. Rivera suggested raising the minimum age to buy an assault rifle to 21 from 18.

Eric Trump, who like his brother is a big-game hunter, seemed to push back, noting that there are already more than 300 million guns in circulation in the United States, implying that new restrictions might be pointless.

But the president, in defiance of the N.R.A., has since publicly embraced the age increase and ordered the Justice Department to develop regulations to ban bump stocks.

By Thursday, Mr. Trump seemed to be following the lead of the N.R.A. again, talking enthusiastically of its proposal to arm highly trained teachers to fortify schools. Still, he has taken different views of gun laws before. In “The America We Deserve,” published in 2000 when he briefly ran for the Reform Party presidential nomination, Mr. Trump called both major parties extreme.

“The Republicans walk the N.R.A. line and refuse even limited restrictions,” he wrote. “I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun.”

Mr. Trump owns guns and has had a concealed weapon permit since 2010. When he set out to win the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, he was pressed by voters in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina to support gun rights, an experience that aides said hardened his views. He dropped support for an assault rifle ban. “I love the N.R.A.,” he declared. “I love the Second Amendment.”

If The Resistance has finally figured out that Trump is a sucker for praise but digs in like a mule when criticized, well, the Never-Trumpers better be ready to host a lot of new guests from the right.

Oh? From the NRA:

The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semi-automatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations.

You're going to be hearing from the NRA again, especially if you don't pay them more. After I started editing his mail, it took several years for them to stop dinging my dad, but others haven't stopped (Zinke's PAC the worst, followed closely by SE Legal Foundation).

I'd like to know where other alleged LE charities got my phone number.

[Threadkiller]

Trump is a sucker for injured/slaughtered children. This has been knows since he Tomahawked a Syrian airbase at the beginning of his presidency.

The Americans who have wisely not associated themselves with the Never Trumpers won't flock to that group of backstabbers should Trump get wobbly. They will head towards the Arpaio/Clarke/ variety of leadership.

Paw dropped a couple of soul grenades on me today re the school slaughter:

1. Misplaced emphasis on background checks: who actually follows up on the b/c after the permit app is turned in at Wal-Mart or a gun shop etc.

"You should see who runs the gun counter at the Wal Mart here in Lynchburg VA. They don't inspire any confidence in the process overall. Then I imagine the paper pushers for the state of VA...about as satisfied with their jobs as DMV employees. Is anyone looking at the actual system before we spend a ton-o-money in DC making new regs and laws?"

Have they been trained to profile applicants?
Would it help if they could?

2. Everyone has mental health issues to some degree or other because *ALL* of us have been at one time or another---to varying degrees for varying lengths of time--- "not in our right minds."

I listened.

After Goggling the t-shirt phrase, there is already a swarm of commie beez proclaiming that "God *IS* allowed" in schools--- just not forcing others to accept it.

Then there is the laughable exception "Unless the school is catholic."

My HS alma mater is charging imported Chinos from Beijing $30,000 cash per year as of 2 years ago. Compulsory morning prayers are no longer said.

I think I'll pass on the shirt afterall. Don't need another bullseye.

[Davod]

imported Chinos may well appreciate the opportunity to pray at school.

Tried calling Enterprise. The call cannot be connected.

Enterprise may not be answering phones today.

[Davod]

The Enterprise phone people quit because they are NRA members.

[Threadkiller]

I called the dealership where we bought my wife's car. Enterprise is their in house service.

The service manager was somewhat stunned to hear how far I will take a protest.

[sbwaters]

Email to Enterprise:

I have rented from Enterprise earlier this year. I am disappointed that your company decided to sever its relationship with the NRA.

You probably were bullied into it. How unfortunate when politics interferes with commerce. So many of us are grown up enough to do business with those of differing political views.

The NRA taught me safe and responsible use of firearms as a young Boy Scout -- and taught many who later defended your freedom.

Your schooling left you unarmed to fight against words, words, words. How sad.

[GUS]

I used to do a lot of bidness with Enterprise. They are a lot bigger than people realize.

Fuck em.

[Account Deleted]

One would think, Davod. But it wasn't what the elite families from their wanted for their money. 95% are not baptized in the faith. 49% of those are members of the Chinese communist party.

Then there is the Catlick vs Protestant Christian rub based on dogma and doctrines. So religion classes are now "ethics" classes without mentioning Big Ernie.

PS: You do know that "Chinos" is Mexican slang for Chinese, right? Not an epithet. Just sayin.

[Davod]

Re. the policeman outside the school. Now we know the sheriff is a Democrat who keeps the Democratic machine on his payroll, maybe we need to look at the resignation and police guarding his house differently.

The policeman was allowed to resign and keep his benefits providing he tells nobody why he did not go inside.

It is to early for him to have a car accident, so the police are outside his house to make sure he doesn't change his mind.

One would think, Davod.

It was a full-court press to take down morning prayer.

$120,000 cash for a high school education (a good solid school) versus ($48,000 4-year average tuition for the non-Chinese national part of the student body, with 63% paying deferred installment tuition over 8 years, and deep financial aid discounts for 25% non-deferred.

Enrollment is topped out. Low end tuition rates keep climbing b/c of all seats taken.

When I was there it was Italian, Portugese, and Irish in the majority. We all paid the same tuition of $400 per year. Financial assistance? Contact your credit union or your extended family.

The next wave was less of the former, way less, and more East Indian, Filipinos and Mexicanos.

And now the wave is changing again.

Surrounding area schools are war zones that don't make headlines. Cartels are here and business is good. Bay Area catholic high schools are safe havens to a degree, but the surrounding neighborhoods not so much.

But I digress.

[Old Lurker]

Gus makes a good point about auto deaths.

How many school age kids die each year from:

Car Wrecks
Car Wrecks from drunk or drugged driving
Car Wrecks from cell phone/texting driving

Mick Mulvaney dodges Elizabeth Warren on payday loans with allusion to her support from trial lawyers

Mick Mulvaney demonstrated Friday that he won't shy from confrontation with Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

The acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau brushed off the Massachusetts senators' detailed questions about his oversight of payday lending in a letter Friday, and instead addressed only her insinuation that he eased up on payday lenders because they have contributed to his political campaigns.

...

Mulvaney invoked trial lawyers' campaign donations to Warren, saying that he could easily argue that the contributions influenced one of Warren's votes related to class-action lawsuits. "Shall we agree that such accusations are baseless and discuss policy matters...?" he asked.

"Civil discourse rests upon our reciprocal understanding that no matter how strongly we may disagree on matters of policy, we are motivated by principle and our mutual desire to serve the American people to the best of our abilities," Mulvaney admonished Warren.

He didn't answer any of the specific questions that Warren and other lawmakers sent in January, demanding a response by Feb. 9.

Buckeye...my past listening might be described by some as coming from a broad but shallow pool.
Thinking on your question brings to mind so many musicians and genres it's hard to pin down.

Here's one I really long to hear again...did you ever hear of "Four Men and a Dog?" Irish/Celtic rock and traditional. Heavy on the Celtic Drums. I liked most of their own compositions (I think) better than their covers. "Struggle On" was an early favorite...it resonated with my own life at the time.

Is anyone watching any of the Olympics? I just stumbled upon the men's biathlon. Last night channel surfing brought me to the women's biathlon.

I have always considered it to be the best of the Olympic challenges. But right now the real challenge is to determine who is who, and what country they are from, based off of their uniforms. Has this whole Olympics been this way?

These outfits are for clowns. They all look like Folsom Street Fairies.

[Threadkiller]

Maybe the "bi" has a different meaning.

[Porchlight]

The last few Olympics have featured incredibly ugly uniforms, TK, with little association with that country's flag or anything else that would give you a clue to nation of origin.

Trump haters are convinced Mueller is trying to get Manafort and Gates to turn on Trump. What if Mueller is a White Hat and he is squeezing Manafort and Gates to provide evidence against Tony Podesta, who they had a formal business deal with?

If that turns out to be the case then Manafort and Gates have to worry about becoming victims of Arkancide. If Mueller indicts Tony Podesta then that IMO is a sign that the ultimate Big Fish are the Clintons.

I’m a military man and I think we should ban assault weapons - By Ralph Peters February 22, 2018 | 9:52pm |

"...But I believe, on moral, practical and constitutional grounds, that no private citizen should own an automatic weapon or a semi-automatic weapon that can easily be modified for automatic effects.

These are military weapons. Their purpose is to kill human beings. They’re not used for hunting (unless you want to destroy the animal’s meat). They’re lousy for target shooting. But they’re excellent tools for mass murder..."

As for putting weapons in schools, that’s a punk idea. More innocents would die..."

[henry]

Davod, next he'll say my 40 gigawatt pulse rifle is bad for hunting because it vaporizes the animal's meat. As long as it makes the govt nervous, it fulfills its Constitutional role.

[Another Bob]

Peters seems remarkably ignorant for “a military man”. Was he an actual soldier or a REMF?

He also seems to be answering a question that nobody is asking. Who’s wanting to legalize full auto?

[Davod]

Don't go there with the 40 gigawatt pulse rifle! But is it semi-automatic?

[Davod]

A while ago I read that the reason the AR15 design is so liked by consumers is because, unlike your regular Flintlock, parts of it, such as the stock, can be adjusted to suit the individual.

[Another Bob]

David, true. It’s designed to be modular in look-and-feel. And some hang “scary” attachments on it.

Doesn’t change the essence of it being a pretty basic semiauto rifle.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]

Sorry, I was doing some work. I copied it from his feed. However, later this afternoon I saw that it showed up in one of those Qanon posts which means it came from 4chan or 8chan and therefore not reliable. I bet he deleted it after hearing it from someone and then discovering the original source.

"Is anyone watching any of the Olympics? I just stumbled upon the men's biathlon. Last night channel surfing brought me to the women's biathlon."

As i've noted here before, TK, i'm boycotting the Olympics until they dispense with such naked sexism and allow (i.e. compel) those identifying as 'female' to compete directly with those identifying as 'male.'

After all, that follows from the newly-required paradigm, right?

Tony Podesta stepping down from lobbying giant amid Mueller probe

Podesta’s decision to leave the firm came on the same day that former Donald Trump campaign aides Paul Manafort and Rick Gates were indicted on multiple charges, including money laundering, operating as federal agents of the Ukrainian government, failing to disclose overseas bank accounts and making false statements to federal authorities. Trump campaign foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulos pleaded guilty earlier this month for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials, according to court records.

The investigation into Podesta and his firm grew out of investigators’ examination of Manafort’s finances. Manafort organized a PR campaign on behalf of a nonprofit called the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine. Podesta Group was one of several firms that were paid to do work on the PR campaign to promote Ukraine in the U.S.

I'd forgotten about this particular scumbag.

Friday, February 23, 2018

"Four governors announced a coalition this week to attempt to stop out-of-state guns from coming into their localities with an information-sharing database to trace and intercept firearms. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy and Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo call their coalition "States for Gun Safety," and said their quad-state database will supplement the federal National Instant Criminal Background Check System and launch the nation´s first Regional Gun Violence Research Consortium. Cuomo charged that the "federal government´s continued inaction..."

From that same link:

Podesta Group has struggled in the wake of the Mueller investigation. More than a dozen of its lobbying clients have cut ties with the firm this year, according to lobbying filings. Revenues have also declined: The firm brought in an estimated $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2017, down from $5.2 million in the second quarter of 2017 and from $6.1 million in the third quarter of 2016.

Ex-Playboy model's notes on alleged Trump affair written a decade later

The centerpiece of a New Yorker story on Karen McDougal, who says she had an affair with Donald Trump, is scribbled notes kept by the former Playboy playmate.

These notes, obtained by journalist Ronan Farrow, are presented as her personal reflections on the relationship –“later memorialized in an eight-page, handwritten document provided to the New Yorker.”

Readers could easily get the impression, as many journalists have, that McDougal wrote these notes during what she describes as a consensual relationship that began in 2006. But that is not the case.

A telltale marking on the entries, reproduced by the magazine, shows that McDougal wrote these pages either during or since the 2016 campaign—relying on memories that were at least a decade old.

[Davod]

Another Bob. No..
