CNN, Scooped!

CNN has long since moved on to obsessing about The Donald but The Atlantic runs a long piece detailing the search, and likely explanation, of missing Malaysian Airliner 370.

Spoiler: Highly probable it was a deliberate suicide run by the pilot. But the description of the puzzle-solving process is fascinating.

That two scoops.

Trump is launching another term against CNN’s short bus world.

[henry]

TM, that article mostly highlighted just how corrupt every institution in Malaysia is. So corrupt that the normally corrupt international teams were stymied. Air Force, Police, air traffic control... soup to nuts corruption.

Give California a week and ghey’ll Be worse.

[Narciso79]

Third scoop:

Trump talks with press before leaving for Orlando.

LOL. auto cucumber made an appropriate edit that time.

[Narciso79]

Ah Malaysia was where malathir the once and current prime minister organized a defamation campaign against Anwar Ibrahim which translates to 'grapevine' in the local dialect, who he enlisted was interesting

[Jane]

Lyle,

From the last thread:

Jib is more connected down here than we are. He should arrange a meeting!

[Tom R]

From the last thread...

M-F was a firm used to cover services available to the connected, from the TBTF, plus another 450 banks, or so.

That is the interconnectedness of it all, not the Papers. They’re the keystone to the entire scheme.

Melinda,

Someone knew that Mossock Fonseca was the cover firm hiding all kinds of illicit activity. The main question I have is who hacked them and leaked the Panama Papers? We can only speculate but since the Panama Papers leak is related to the current crackdown on global money laundering scandal it would seem whoever hacked into MF and leaked the data had justice as a motive.

[Jim Eagle]

Meet up where? Here in Florida?

Catsmeat is coming down in July.

[MissMarple2]

Does our educational system really work?
Instead of focusing on useless Common Core, what if our schools focused on the fundamentals again like Geography and basic Math?

Since Progtard/SJWs control Hollywood and Progtard/SJWs don't have a sense of humor I think that is where most of the blame can be placed.

"Meet up where? Here in Florida?"

Meet-up with the winner of the Open. At your house!

[JimNorCal]

In general, do we find highly trained technologists (such as pilots) from Christian, Jewish, Shinto, Hindu, Buddhist, atheist cultures who not only commit suicide but also drag a plane load of innocent strangers along with them?

Or is it mostly concentrated amongst Muslims?

[henry]

Yes, it is a scam. I guess Zuck forgot to payoff mad max.

Dynamite prayer by Paula Poundstone.

Now the pledge with 3 guys including Marcus Luttrell.

[Buckeye]

Jim_Sunny

There was that German pilot who flew a full plane into a mountain not too far back.

He was clearly imbalanced. Don't remember if any religious affiliation.

[MissMarple2]

Dynamite National Anthem by a black gal, who sang the Sandy Patti version.

Now Lara Trump is speaking.

[Jim Eagle]

Watching local Fox 35 from Orlando and for every positive report on Trump they have to conclude with him polling behind Biden. Journalism really is the ghost of truth.

[Extraneus]

Imagine what Biden would be like if he gets it in his head that he's really in the lead?

[MissMarple2]

Lara Trump is a good speaker.

Now Eric Trump is speaking.

[Momto2]

I don't suppose any of our JOMers are at the Orlando rally? I think it will be quite a night.

I heard a few minutes of Rush yesterday and he was discussing the polls. He mentioned the poor turnout for the "impeach Trump" rallies this weekend. He then talked about the lack of turn out for any of the dems so far - even Biden. Then compared that to the anticipated crowd in Orlando! He believes that is much more indicative of the pulse of the country than these loaded polls.

[JimNorCal]

TK, love your 5:27!
Excellent timing to get that placed at the top

[MissMarple2]

Now Donald Trump, Jr.

[henry]

Nobody answers their phone anymore, how can a representative sample be polled? Serious statistical problem. (Yes, trained in polling stats at PhD level. No way any poll has meaning). So Rush is correct, you look tonother metrics.

Rally attendance is a good one. Thus progs bus paid attendees to rallies (and countvonnMSM to give flattering camera angles). But bear in mind so was volume of trash as a proxy for crowd size. As we know, progs are pigs (mostly to prime this measurement) and Tea Party leaves things cleaner than before,

This things may look good, but never confuse theory with reality... we won’t know reality until November 2020.

[Jim Eagle]

Ext,

Biden has 1/10 the energy of Trump. Watching AF1 landing at NCO.

[Jim Eagle]

MCO. Where I lived as a kid.

[Extraneus]

Rally attendance isn't going to tell the story, IMO. Even though none of the current Dem candidates have the charisma or panache to fill large venues, many millions will turn out to vote against Trump. His strategy has to be to depress their enthusiasm.

Perhaps his rallies help with that. :-)

[henry]

Ext, I hope whatever measure Parscale is using doesn’t leak. That way it can’t be gamed (or copied to give evil a clear picture).

[GUS]

I don't give a fiddlers fart what any MFM POLL says.
The only CNN employee that I listen to, is LITTLE JIMBO ACOSTA-CORRRRRRRRRRTEZZZZZZZZ.

[GUS]

George Will needs a boot up his ass.
In fact the little pansy might like it.

[GUS]

EXT. There is no enthusiasm. The FULL COMMIE will vote lock step with whatever the FULL COMMIE throws out as a platform.
Many will stay home and cry.

[Jim Eagle]

He’s off of I4 for the Amway center. Last time there was for a hockey game. No way would I fight 95 and 4 to get there. Big crowd though and he needs the I-4 corridor just like W

[henry]

Don Jr did well.

[henry]

Gus, given enough early voting, the cadre can threaten>/s> help people to vote.

[clarice]

These rallies are like tent revivals with Ron Popeil doing the warm ups.

[henry]

. Dang

[henry]

Sorry Clarice.

[Captain Hate]

[MissMarple2]

Trump's rallies give his voters confidence and enthusiasm. I know they do that for me.

While there is a danger in being over-confident, the dems are really showing a bad turnout for their appearances.

MAGA!!

[JimNorCal]

Story from SF in 2016 on the city's tangled homeless program.
They end after a statement from the city official who's going to whip the program into shape and the reporter comments "He's not messing around".
Ha ha ha ha ha.
It's 2019 and it's clear he was just messing around.

[Momto2]

In many Ga. counties they are having watch parties for tonight's rally. This was posted on Twitter from the Coweta Co. watch party. Pretty cool! I bet she's a lot of fun.

[clarice]

Forgive you, Henry? No. I'm going to stalk you now and challenge you at every turn. It's the JOM way. ;)

[Jim Eagle]

If the Dems don’t run a black or Hispanic as either 1 or 2 they are toast and they know that. So, I see a Warren/Castro kind of a contestant up against Trump. You can throw in your own mix.

[Jim Eagle]

But never Joe or Bernie.

[MissMarple2]

Jack,

I agree. Joe is worthless, and Bernie is not only too old but can be shown to be a hypocrite with those 3 houses.

That’s fine Jib, but how will you convince Gary?

One of Mrs Jim,SVL's friends sent her kid to the Middlebury Institute of Int'l Studies in Monterey, California.

Now we get occasional mail. Today was a copy of the alumni mag. The articles are a riot.

1) An alum working in "anti-terror" muses on a great-Uncle who fought with the Commies in Greece after WWII. He opines that the US has bolstered terror orgs with the policy of visa restrictions from Muslim countries. I kid you not.

2) An alum decides NOT to have children. An average American doing standard stuff to reduce carbon like not owning a car, recycling, ...) can expect to save 488 metric tons of carbon in 80 years. BUT, for each child not born, the CO2 saving is 9,441 metric tons! "I made a conscious decision not to have children. I'm not selfish, and there's nothing missing from my life."

3) An alum from Gaza volunteers with the Red Crescent and always volunteers "when there is a war." She uses her English skills to get out "our side of the story".

4) An article about how Global Warming means Monterey beaches will gone in the future.

[JimNorCal]

Who is Gary?

An article about how Global Warming means Monterey beaches will gone in the future.

We just witnessed the last days of Pebble Beach.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

The problem the Dems have is 2018 was based on KILL TRUMP!.
Welp, he's still kickin, more so than ever, and Nancy Menshevik is trying to corral the Ocasio Bolsheviks and they haven't even passed squat for the Senate to have to kill or Trump veto. They have misplayed and squandered their opportunity completely.
That leaves the economy. If it's good or passable Trump wins easy. If it's terrible he still might squeak through because he has, whether by design or fate, got a whole bunch of Spygate bad news queued up that he can dump if he needs or chooses to at a most inopportune time for the traitors.

[Captain Hate]

Gary Woodland.

[Jane]

He’s the point of the meet-up. Gary Woodland. Lyle and I want to meet him.

[Jim Eagle]

Ch,

👍

[Captain Hate]

they haven't even passed squat for the Senate to have to kill or Trump veto.

They made Paul Ryan look productive.

[henry]

If Trump has Spygate stacked up... bounce the rubble now. Cut the cutesy strategery crap and get r done

Wise GOP candidates would pick up on this and use it as a campaign issue.

MT,
I’m surprised some creative person hasn’t disappeared the dipshits running the Mullis Center. Shouldn’t be too difficult since it’s an island.
:)

I enjoyed the MH370 article.

[Jim Eagle]

Gary Woodland? Why I will have to send him an email that I once played basketball for Sacred Heart against his old school Shawnee Heights. But not when he was there. Top Kansas sports school in every sport. He was on a Kansas championship team. Think Indiana, Kentucky and Kansas when it comes to top BBall states.

[henry]

Trump 10 minute warning per RSBN.

[Manuel Transmission]

Mel and Henry, loved the VW/SAP zingers! I watched at lot of my RR customers piss away $1B++ on that crap knowing they would never crawl out from under it. Yuk!

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

Interesting division on SCOTUS over a WV uranium mine.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

The returns are in on Colorado’s decision to legalize marijuana: (1) Large amounts of money are being made thanks to legalization, privately and by the state; (2) “horrible things are happening to kids.”

Decided NOT to have children, cut back on carbon emissions.
That type of thinking is DELUDED. This fuxstix thinks that HE/SHE has ANYTHING to do with saving the planet???? Nut job. And there are plenty of them.

[sbwaters]

Nobody answers their phone anymore, how can a representative sample be polled?

No decent Republican responds to any survey. Period. Who wants to become part of a never-ending solicitation campaign.

The fact that Trump loses surveys badly means Trump wins decisively on Election Day.

Trump punching HARD tonight.

There has been no one in my life time who talks like Trump as a POYUS or the average politician.

You are sure right. Right now he's going after acid-washing the emails.
