    The Trump Card...

    Here's just an awesome example of the unbiased, nonpartisan, independent and thoroughly unimpassioned FactCheck.org's fact-checking of Trump's UN speech, where they contort themselves into a pretzel to create new contexts so as to show Trump's true statements as being either misleading or false...

    It's a Team's Life Bass Pro Shop – Memphis, TN

    I do plan to check it out. It was pretty open for concerts, because it was set up for basketball games with all the seating and stuff. For most of the concerts, they'd block off a quarter to a third of the seats what would be behind the stage, but it was still wide open. The Dixie Chicks was...

    It's a Team's Life Bass Pro Shop – Memphis, TN

    I haven't been in there since it reopened as a Bass Pro Shops. But I did go there for several concerts. James Taylor, Aerosmith, Dixie Chicks, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John/Billy Joel, Paul Simon/Bob Dylan, Fleetwood Mac, and the first concert I saw there, Jimmy Buffett.

    The very first time I cleaned mine I thought it was going to be hard. I went to one of those self car washes and dropped 3 bucks for the high pressure wash thing, laid the screen on the cement, hit it with the pressure hose, and the screen was cleaned in point-3 seconds. That was an expensive...

    The Trump Card...

    Andy Borowitz is hilarious. I'm a regular reader of his stuff. He's like a political cartoonist, but with prose.

    The Trump Card...

    Yes, I am aware. I've read the actual legislation that details the scope and purpose of the FISA Court and the procedures. I was merely, with great yet apparently very subtle sarcasm, relating what the CNN experts keep spouting. They want to impress upon people that if a FISA warrant is issued...

    The phone system is a little tedious. They're Fantastic Fan (used to be in Michigan), but Fantastic Fan was bought by Atwood (Elkhart) in 2010. In addition to the fans, Atwood is a long time maker of RV products like water heaters, gas stoves and cooktops, and Hydroflame furnaces. And now just...

    The Trump Card...

    Perhaps. A lot of that is self serving for Wittes, who has his own history of questionable sources, including being a questionable source himself. The Lawfare Blog isn't exactly known for being an unimpassioned broker. Their pieces on the 9th Circuit Court's ruling on Trump's travel ban makes...

    I'm OOS. Doctor's appointment tomorrow, and vehicle inspection Thursday or Friday.

    My Fantastic Fan Vent isn't working properly. The dome won't go up and down automatically. The knob won't work manually, either. I have to hold the knob juuuust right to get the dome to raise and lower. The lifter arm is fine, the pin and cotter pin are in place, it's in that lifter motor where...

    The Trump Card...

    The "out" on that will be if the wiretap was a Title III court order, which is a criminal investigation and not a foreign agent monitoring. But it doesn't appear to be a Title III warrant. In any case, those FISA Court orders are extremely hard to get. An investigation has to have already been...

    I'm going to start calling the Bengals "Hillary" because they keep winning the majority of the yards gained but can't win on the scoreboard.

    No. Everyone at Fox News still has their Twitter accounts. :JC_rimshot: Besides, Sweden dropped the charges against Assange. Assange gets regular visits from Pamela Anderson, so I dunno.

    The Trump Card...

    It's pretty clear if you watch the interview that "this" referred directly to the unmasking of Trump campaign and transition officials, since that's what the interview was about.

    The Trump Card...

    Just to make sure I understand this, you're accusing me of posting fake news, because I posted a screencap of Julian Assange's opinion? Interesting, considering nobody ever gave a TED Talk at a restaurant. But there it is, in the news.

    The Trump Card...

    Interesting spin that you can only be wiretapped if you are the TARGET of a wiretapping. Of course that's not true or accurate at all, but it is nevertheless interesting. Obviously, wiretapping (a term which includes any interceptions of any electronic conversations) Manafort is not the same...

    Yeah, I've seen it a lot. Stories that have nothing to do with Trump will tell the story in the first four paragraphs, then the next eleven paragraphs will tie it to Trump and one of his Tweets 4 months ago.

    Kind of a cheap shot, but I can also see the contrasting GOP personalities between Trump and Dean. Now, on the other hand, a completely unnecessary article contrasting the two personalities is kind of a cheap shot in and of itself. It's really non-news, but the reporter for some reason found...
