Wait, hold on.  We're gonna need an attribution here, because google image search is (allegedly) not working.  Asking for a friend.

There you are Jimmy, your unraveling during the collusion delusion had me worried. Glad to see you’re ok and back to complaining about rep.

Thanks for your concern Chrispy troll! How’s your private jet doing? Properly maintained I assume.  Hopefully no other sick family members I trust.

Where in the hell am I defending internment camps? My issue was stating that fear of Imperial Japan was irrational, that’s just silly. I will admit to getting some minor pleasure when pointing out Brisket’s hysteria, though.

Logical fallacy.

The irrational fear at issue was not the fear of Imperial Japan.  It was fear of anyone of Japanese ancestry, including Japanese-American US ciitizens.  You're either too stupid to get the distinction, or you're purposefully dishonest.  Either is negworthy.

In fairness, how are you supposed to determine if a thumb drive has malware on it? 

Hopefully he was using an unconnected throw away computer with no wifi... but who am i kidding, it was probably hard wired into the SS mainframe.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and suggest that the Secret Service and other federal agencies have pretty stringent guidelines on how NOT to deal with 3rd-party drives.  "Well, let's just stick it in here and see what happens" (ahem) is probably not kosher.

That's not the thing that killed me. It was the "Never seen that before" that kills me. I mean this is elementary-level security, here. Do the Secret Service also open attachments from guys from Nigeria and get all surprised when they've been phished?

I was talking with a hospital CSIO once and he told me they did a big security audit once and as part of the audit, the company that was doing the audit dropped about a dozen usb keys around the employee parking garage...9 of them got picked up and plugged into hospital computers. Phishing works because people are idiots.

Their concern, of course, was Japanese American espionage. They intercepted and decoded numerous Japanese cables stating as much. It was a poor decision, but none of it was rooted in irrational fear.

Yep.  Trump is trying to build a resume as a great president.  He doesn't have a world war or a civil rights crisis, so he's manufacturing a crisis in order to solve it.  The problem is that his idea of solving this fictional crisis is going to create a very real one.

And when this doesn't get him the acclaim he wants, we're going to war with somebody.

You believe that a fear that trumps the most basic of Constitutional protections is not irrational.

I believe that any fear that trumps the most basic of Constitutional protections is, by definition, irrational.

I like where I stand.  I'll be over here, with the Constitution.

The Trump administration scuttled Major League Baseball's historic agreement with the Cuban Baseball Federation, arguing that the sport's governing body is part of the Cuban government and that the agreement violates United States trade law.

Expand  

 

  Quote

In December, MLB and the MLB Players Association announced an agreement with the Cuban federation similar to those for players under contract to clubs in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan -- one the league believed would end the defection of players and erase the human trafficking of Cuban players that has become the standard as they attempt to join MLB.

The Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control sent a letter to MLB on Friday that said "payments to the Cuban Baseball Federation are not authorized ... because a payment to the Cuban Baseball Federation is a payment to the Cuban government."

The Trump administration is designating Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a foreign terrorist organization, taking an unprecedented step as it seems to increase pressure on Iran's regime. The move seems certain to bring a new level of tension between the two countries, as Iran's leaders have said they will retaliate in kind.

He will need someone to attack us first.  Going to war is a really hard sell to the American public, always has been but probably more now than ever. 

Trump’s war is on America.  The press, the values, the law, the democrats, the judiciary.  He will crack that up to 11 before using the military on foreign soil.

I agree he won't send troops on foreign soil.  But he keeps threatening to use the nuclear arsenal, and it's not like he has any sort of conscience.

Trump wanted to shut the El Paso port on 24 hour notice, but Nielson reminded him that Abbott was a Trump supporter.  Can't do that to your sycophants!

Also, we got something out of Abbott's spinelessness, it seems.

Of course Nielsen had to make Trump back down, it's not like Abbott is going to stand up to him.

I don’t doubt Trump could sell a war with Iran to his base but they are surprisingly anti-war, probably due to all the “US is the Evil Empire” propaganda.

I'm actually surprised it hasn't slipped that he'd like to go to war with Mexico. It'd be a win-win for Agent Orange (my new villain name for Trump). 

My bet for most likely option is a “lightning invasion” of Guatemala, to “secure a border that mexico won’t.” Its a good bet because 1) it would give his base a raging xenophobia boner, and 2) it’s low-risk for losing/casualties. He is aggy, looking for a HUGE win against Murray State.
