#100DaysOfShame The hashtag is both amusing and sad!

Of course his first 100 days were a success! Most of us are still alive, aren’t we?

1. It’s a job they choose to take.

I don’t think he’s a lunatic. But he does sound like someone who is starting to deal with dementia. His comments never, ever seem to form into anything that could be construed as coherent in any way.

For creep’s sake. Those people.

Can we call it terrorism against people of his country?

Yeah, that choice of words stuck out to me as well. But my main takeaway from this was relief these assholes are gone instead of getting a slap on the wrist and put back on duty. Although, I worry there’s still the possibility these guys could quietly move to another precinct as we’ve seen happen before.

Dem response:

Don’t think about the FBI investigation into Trump administration’s contacts with Russian officials. Don’t think about the FBI investigation into Trump administration’s contacts with Russian officials. Oh, look at the shiny bauble called: Blame the Democrats! Don’t think about the FBI investigation into Trump…

Unfortunately, he learned his negotiation skills from Trump University. Sad!

Thanks to Mel Brooks, at least we don’t have to wonder what the recruitment process for the extra border patrol agents will look like.

No, technically you don’t have to fly, ever. As someone who hates everything about flying, from the airports, airlines, security and crowds, to the actual concept of being in a 500 mph metal tube 35,000 ft above ground, I’d be happy to never fly again. But I’d have to find a job that doesn’t require travel, or waste…

Nope fuck that. People would have just kept giving excuses not to be able to do it. I think they should have kept upping the reimbursement until people started to fly out of their seats.

Plus EAS, route takeovers, ending point-to-point, ending mutual aid agreements, lowering financial requirements for airline startups, and no interference in the hub-and-spoke model.

But no, really. It was only about pricing and scheduling.

Most people who aren’t Republican governors or airline executives think bullet trains are cool.

All true, and airlines are just one of the most extreme and awful examples. The truth is that this kind of concentration has happened in loads of other industries over the last few decades. It’s why your ISP sucks and your mobile provider sucks and your health insurance sucks and...I could go on.

You mean deregulation and letting an an entire industry police itself without any governmental regulation or interference ended in consumers getting screwed? SHOCKED, I say.

People must realize that calling the police increases the potential for violence in civil (meaning non-criminal) matters.
