“...all other nations are the pitfall”. Jeeze, I didn’t realize we were doing so well. I guess there’s no more work to do here, we can all go home and have a beer.

I find the ridicule of Bernie not getting bills passed a bizarre type of criticism. I’ve worked as a corporate lobbyist, and literally the entire objective of the majority of the lobbying world is to prevent the type of legislation that Bernie Sanders (or any liberal for that matter) wants to pass. The amount of money…

A first step, but a necessary one, for professional sports teams is to copy the Packers’ model: Non-profit and publicly owned, with clauses in their charters that forbid them to be moved to another city. Its not a cure-all, but it allows for more input from the consumer/fans, and eliminates the profit motive that…

Legitimate question/clarification, and I’m only asking because it seems like a lot of the hate relates to his supporters and Sander’s general media persona, but do you dislike or disagree with any of his general policy stances? Ignoring the fact that on several issues there are probably big gaps on important details.…

Furthermore, the Milwaukee-Chicago Amtrack Train stops very close to the new Foxconn facility. the stop is 20 minutes from Milwaukee, and about 35 minutes from downtown Chicago. That’s where these professionals will be coming from.

Adam Silver should force the Pelicans to accept the Bucks First round pick and Thon Maker just to make the Giannis/Davis team up happen.  That Team could straight up beat the Warriors in 7 games.

You’re confusing “getting the math to work” with political feasibility. A tax in some form or another would and could pay for a Medicare for all type program. The hope being that, like most other industrialized countries, the program is cheaper to implement and produces better outcomes for more people than our…

The way our environmental laws are set up starts with the Objective: Clean water, clean air, disposal of haz waste etc. This part is fairly straightforward and obvious in it’s intent. The next part of the law gives the EPA the power to determine how to meet those objectives. When you hear about Pruitt,Trump or Wheeler…

Not surprisingly this is the same type of Pyrrhic fight Trump’s EPA has been fighting since day 1 on all fronts. They’ll make a procedural change to undermine an environmental regulation, but eventually lose in court because the baseline laws (CAA, CWA, RCRA) which these regulations are based on has very specific…

Automotive industry regulatory professional here. This move by the Trump EPA is not going to last, and is just pissing off the entire automotive sector. If he wants to make long term changes to the law, they would have to change the Clean Air Act itself, (See: 42 USC § 7543). This entire section is very specific, and…

The only way to really stop this immediately is for someone in these court proceedings to take a picture of a toddler and their lawyer sitting in front of a judge.  The public had a collective fit when they saw kids in cages, they need to see this farce too.  Pictures work so much better than words when you want to…

Definitely a troll who knows better. Definitely not age 70

Not to mention the fridge, and Indy,would have been completely vaporized if they were sitting next to ground zero like that.

Also, like a Vogon

These four scenes are definitely above anything in 1941, Empire of the Sun, AI, War of the Worlds, Tin Tin, Munich, and Bridge of Spies.

I don’t get it. I thought her response to the signature question was one big winking nod to the fact that it obviously wasn’t her signature, and of course she slept with him.

This would work too. If we could get Schumer and Pelosi on stage with Trump in front of a bunch of camera’s, commenting on how large Donald’s hands are and how awesome his negotiating prowess is, telling him we can have the biggest wall ever and save the DREAMers. The entire time they would be obviously winking at…

Even better idea, approve the funding for the wall to get the DREAM act approved now, then when they retake congress over the next four years, pull all the funding for the wall, ICE, and other immigration overreaches by the Republicans.

Ryan will never allow the Dream Act to reach a floor vote in the house, because the majority of his caucus does not want that to pass under any circumstance. They would remove him as speaker before that vote would be allowed to proceed. Maybe if Trump went directly to the house and started putting pressure on them, or…

I see your point and wholly agree with you. Maybe if it was the Duck Dynasty guys calling things out they’d listen.
