"Faster Than Light? Neutron-Star Merger Shot Out a Jet with Seemingly Impossible Speed"

Text goes on to explain it was an optical illusion, still interesting.

On the 4-D Chess circuit, Kennedy, in a chat with Cory Lewendowski about the anonymous OpEd writer, brings up comments from Kennedy that twitterer's suggest that this is 4-D Chess, secretly slipped to the NYTimes by secret Trump surrogates, in order to get Woodward's Book off the front pages as old news, and to give Trump a great attack avenue of criticizing the Times and the MSM, while at the same time doing being able to dump on and dismiss WoodWard's fake reporting as simply more of the same.

[Jack is Back!!]

Rocco,

Good guess. More likely than someone actually on staff.

How this guy takes it everyday and survives is remarkable.

[Another Bob]

MM, don’t care if your daughter is “skeered”. She doesn’t need to touch it.

Get a gun.

You’re the perfect candidate.

[Rocco]

Thanks JiB, Tucker claims to know and rumor has it Pence's speechwriter likes to use the word Lodestar which was used in the op-ed.

[Crotch Rub]

Yes daddyo. That sounds delicious. 😎

[Captain Hate]

I like Rocco's suggestion; the guy seems mental and a complete prick to his wife.

From Frau's link:

Sometime later I spoke with George W. Bush’s Director of Central Intelligence, General Michael Hayden. “We were sorry that [Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed] Morsi was overthrown” in July 2013, Hayden explained. “We wanted to see what would happen when the Muslim Brotherhood had to take responsibility for picking up the garbage.”

“General,” I remonstrated, “when Morsi was overthrown, Egypt had three weeks of wheat supplies on hand. The country was on the brink of starvation!” “I guess that experiment would have been tough on the ordinary Egyptian,” Hayden replied.

He wasn’t joking. The ideological commitment of the Establishment to a new global order made facts irrelevant. If things weren’t that way, they should have been that way.

Hayden used to appear on Fox News Sunday quite a bit and he seemed ok but didn't seem to be mentally all there, particularly a disturbingly creepy way of smiling at inappropriate times. At the time I just assumed he was restraining himself from choking Chris Wallace out, but now I'm thinking it was more. Anyway it's no surprise that he was an establishment tool.

My two favorite baseball teams are now the Boston Red Sox and the Rocket City Trash Pandas.

Beasts, "live" is an interesting way to describe a raccoon post tag. Might be better for hat sales, IYKWIM.

[Miss Marple (the real one)]

Another Bob,

I do not own this home and am here due to my daughter's charity.

I try to comply with her wishes. For example, I only smoke in my bedroom.

I will talk to her about it. We have a store that sells guns and I could probably ask for advice from them.

[daddy]

Hearing is back on and Corey Booker on the attack probably cooked up with Durban last half hour.

[daddy]

From initial comments I think Corey Booker is going to be playing the Race card.

Would someone please tell the fakemedia Trump has been President for 18 months and not one thing they have warned us about has come true? In fact most times the 180 degree opposite has come true. I mean I'm okay watching a player have a batting avg of .200 but a .000 one?

Idaho is the seventh largest state in the lower 48 without any flattening, Pin. And still one of the most sparsely populated. For now...

Regarding Trash Pandas:

It is a perfect name. I used to live in a wooded area and every morning I would find trash in our car port.

One night I was up late studying and I heard noise. Went out and there were 6 raccoons working as a team: two in the garbage can rummaging around and passing the goodies up, while the other four were on the floor waiting for stuff to be thrown to them.

Trash Pandas is the PERFECT description!!

You have completely ignored legitimate questions from multiple JOMers.

[henry]

Beasts, I just want to know which ones are returnees. (The tagged ones never return).

[maryrose]

Rocco/:
Excellent guess.
Will have to wait and see.
After the midterms , President Trump needs to fire some people.
No Obamabots allowed.
He doesn’t need people trying to sabotage his agenda.

They are F**ked. They’re so stupid that they published an article in which an active gov official is admitting to treason.

If source is real: they’re arguably complicit in treason if they don’t turn the source over.

If fake: They have to admit they lied.

[Beasts of England]

I know they're pests - and often diseased - but they're cute and industrious, Miss Marple! Maybe henry can help you tag your TPs. :)

And I sure hope they have a great logo...

[Miss Marple (the real one)]

Beasts,

No problem with them now. All I deal with are squirrels, mice, and the neighbor's pit bull.

[Eye Doctor .]

Guess Tommy just wants to talk sports now.

Can't blame him.

[narciso79]

Being that last week was the rime of the ancient maverick, ill guess one of his scorpions say Brian hooked.

[lyle]

Speaking of pests...

[Beasts of England]

Treason is a very specific crime and wouldn't apply here, I don't believe. I think it's arguably sedition, but I'll defer to our JDs.

[Miss Marple (the real one)]

We should probably pay attention to this.

[narciso79]

Since its coming from Dubai, I suspect mersa, then again i don't if that was the original vector point.

[Rocco]

Racoons love a good fight too! Where legal, some hunters use audio recordings of racoons fighting to call them in and he tells me they come running looking for a fight. Great name!

[Clarice Feldman]

Both sedition and treason require as an element of the crime armed force.

[daddy]

Cory Booker is smearing Kavanaugh as a closet racist by reading e-Mails from 2002 that Booker will not provide to Kavanaugh so he can see what the E-Mail is about. Kavanaugh does not know the context and also pointed out that from listening to Booker's reading of the words, that the words were not Kavanaugh's but probably or possibly some clients, and asks repeatedly to give him the E-Mail but Booker refuses at the moment, says he will give him the E-Mails later. Also, as he continues reading selective sentences, Kavanaugh replies that from what Booker just read it sounds to Kavanaugh like Kavanaugh was on the opposing side of the E-mail issue that Booker is trying to smear him as a Racist with. Big time smear job, and in my view, totally unfair. Without question Booker is playing to his 2020 Presidential Campaign video.

[Another Bob]

Time of war = treason, sedition otherwise, right?

[DebinGA]

Kirk Douglas in 101 and his wife (since 1954) is 99. Both seem to be still active and in good health.

[Rocco]

Since the pen is mightier than the sword, can we consider the NYT armed and and charge them with treason?

[The Infamous Ignatz]

Relinking Spengler's latest.
I particularly liked this line;

Trump inherited a host of problems from the failed Establishment consensus. The greatest of these was the rise of China, which invested in advanced weaponry while the United States spent nearly $6 trillion on its end-of-history illusion.

If the United States had devoted a small fraction of that $6 trillion to frontier research in military technologies, America still would be the unchallenged hyperpower.

What did we get instead for our $6 trillion? Even had Barry not lost Iraq, what would we have gained worth $6 trillion and a much less secure position against our real strategic enemies?

[The Infamous Ignatz]

Cory Booker is proof positive that absolute power doesn't need to corrupt absolute buttholes.

[henry]

Pin, those stats have a lot to do with living in blue hells of Milwaukee (higher per capita murder than Chicago) and Madison. Those places suck no matter what your skin color is.

[daddy]

Senator Cory Booker is neither "concerned," "bothered," nor "troubled." What Booker is is not "comforted." He lacks "comfort." Kavanaugh has not "comforted" Corey Booker.

So so far today we have Senator "Concerned" Senator Bothered ," Senator "Troubled" and Senator "Un-Comforted."

Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered, am I.

Senator Mike Lee is now standing up for the unfairness exhibited by Senator Booker in cross examining Kavanaugh about a document that Kavanaugh was not allowed to see.

Booker replies that "this system is rigged."

Mike Lee replies that he is happy to work with Booker to get the E-Mail in question released.

[Rocco]

I'm willing to consider that Sessions, Huber and Horowitz might have some sort of virtuous plan, but not Mueller.

I don't have much faith in Huber's investigation since he hasn't interviewed Bruce Ohr.

Mike Lee-UT seems like one worth watching. Hope Romney doesn't come to the Senate guns blazing, i.e. attention seeking from the get-go.

[Captain Hate]

The Horde is claiming that Fat Erickson is claiming the source is Elaine Chao, which seems absolutely absurd to me and completely justifies Red State sending that attention deprived slob packing along with the slimmer lunatic.

Ticks are a deal but not nearly the big deal as in northern Midwest and New England. But, definitely spread the word that they’re bad out here.

[henry]

Pin, I did a lot of Section 8 rental housing in Philadelphia in the 80s. I know what it takes to make a neighborhood better. I also know what stops improvement. Building trolleys instead of policing neighborhoods, putting unions ahead of children in public schools, these things will destroy any place. Politicians in Milwaukee get power and riches from screwing things up. Not worth investing there, better returns for society where the locals help.

[jim nj]

Daddy, the headline needed a de-bunking. The story was good, but the inference that light could travel faster than light was hype.

[Jane#walkaway]

Mike lee is absolutely brilliant. He was also on the short list for the SC.

[Captain Hate]

[Rocco]

Hannity just said, who knew what when? Then he waved and said Hi Rod!

[narciso]

Yes that doesn't track at all, so my nominees are hooks and Kruger (sic) perhaps Lerner from Haleys staff.

[jim nj]

But if we ever do find out that light can travel faster than light it would be nind-boggling how it would destroy so many proven theories.

Just a couple years ago, Hughes was one of the most nationally visible and hardcore Trumpworld luminaries. The conservative author and onetime Tea Party News Network news director frequently appeared on CNN as a prominent pro-Trump contributor. She was praised and oft-watched by Donald J. Trump himself, enjoyed some face time with him during the 2016 race, and campaigned for him as an early supporter in 2015.

She was a high-profile enough Trump booster that she was even lampooned on NBC’s long-running comedy show Saturday Night Live, in a 2016 sketch she knocked at the time as an example of “the ultimate sexism.”.
