I live in a Seattle suburb and this is a real problem here. This was in the paper today. A man, even though given extra time had his truck towed and a Judge says he gets it back and doesn't have to pay because he is poor. I have little to no idea what the answer is, but like the guy in the video in the trash can, if they give these people breaks and don't punish them, then are they really helping them? It's a tough problem. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/homeless/judge-rules-seattle-homeless-mans-truck-is-a-home/ Seattle thinks they can legislate and tax their way out of this problem. City council passed a law saying if you are building housing you have to alot X% for "affordable Housing" units. Or, pay a fine and the city will then build "affordable housing". Builders just pay the fine and charge more the houses. I think Seattle is projected to build 2500 units in the next 4 years with the proceeds according to the mayor. Really? I think they need to realize Seattle is an expensive place to live and help people that can't afford it move out. Let people volunteer and train them in a skill for a couple of months and pay their moving costs to Dallas or Houston or Atlanta or somewhere there are a lot more jobs for people with marginal skills. Then they can afford to live on their own. Thus generating less new homeless people. Probably get a bigger bang for the buck that way. Some of these homeless or near homeless people that don't want to be that way could get out.

I think I feel a Howard Dean scream type moment on the horizon for someone. Will also be interesting to see who goes 6 for 6 in coin clips in Iowa in 9 months.

She said "They" which I would take to mean Republicans. But, that was before the switch, so not sure, maybe it really was the racist Democrats. this stuff is confusing . And wasn't America White Again back then? She wants to take us back to that?

I wasn't fooled by it either. I knew it was fake because the famous "P tape" never came out. In this day it age if it existed it would have been out within a month or two. Still waiting on it ...

This is becoming Uncle Joe's Hillary's damn emails. There are now 2. Elizabeth and Uncle Joe. Although I must say I'm confused. For the last 2 1/2 years I've been hearing when a woman make an accusation against a powerful privileged male, she is to be believed. Yet my blue dog friends tell me its OK and the lady accuser is lying.

thanks for the clarification. actually I was thinking of Medicare Advantage. https://www.ehealthmedicare.com/original-medicare-articles/medicare-part-b/ it is confusing.

you're right. I posted something like this a while back as well. What they're talking about and people say they want is NOT Medicare. Why are they calling it that? Doubling down on thinking we're stupid I guess. One more thing. Part B IS bought from an insurance company.

Smoky the Bear certainly does.

Good point. But the scenario you mentioned is different because the cat in VA was not running against women. And if he quit as toxic masculinity men should, then a R would have been in and we can't have that. When Al quit, another D took his place, which is cool. And it cleared one less opponent for Gildebrand in 2020 so it was worth it. It's all BS anyway. Bill Clinton did the classic toxic masculinity thing of being in a powerful position and using it to get sex from an underling. Yes Hillary and the Ds still think he's OK. And, Hillary tried to destroy her. If it weren't for Linda Tripp and the blue dress, Monica would either be in jail, an insane asylum, or dead. Who was it that used to crow about 2 Americas?

I already put the over/under at 2 weeks from when Uncle Joe announces until a woman comes forward and says Uncle Joe grabbed her by the &$#@(9+ while taking a photo ala Al Franken because a, look at Past photos, and b, that's how the game is now played.

Having a powerful person's friend make a call working the good ole boy network to get your friend off smacks of white male privilege to me. Yet they are all minority women. I'm confused.

Shoulda gone to Trump Tower Grill. Everyone knows they have THE BEST Taco Bowls. Hold on, it's been fact checked and may not be true. https://freebeacon.com/culture/fact-check-trump-taco-bowls-best/

They ALL look like over made up tarts.

^^^^^^^^^^ You think it's smart for teachers to take their own money out of their pocket to buy stuff the school should be paying for? God bless 'em, but again I believe they're shooting themselves in the foot in regards to getting more money by doing this.

This always kills me that teacher do this. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. I know they care about the kids and all, but why should schools get more money when the teachers will pick up the slack?

Seeing as to how the Pulitzer Prize namesake ran a HUGE BS sensationalized series of stories about the Spanish American war getting the country into a war frenzy and we got in, it makes perfect sense why Trump collusion would be an award winning story. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_journalism Yellow journalism at its best (almost as good as WMD but less deadly).

I I knew the Dossier was crap about a month or two after it was introduced. if said "pre tape" was real, no way in this day and age it would NOT have gotten out.

When I read that I was wondering the same thing. This is always fun when presidential candidates (they all do it) pretend like they are running for king/queen for a day instead of President of the United States.

Of course. OJ did prove back in the 90s that the system works. A rich black man can get off just like a rich white man.

This is funny because I watch CNN from time to time for comic relief. When they had their panels on they would make these assumptions and supositions and loose connections that has got to mean he's guilty and be removed from office and sent to Sing Sing forever.. They often reminded of Glenn Beck when he had his show and would wear his college professor outfit with several black boards and make loose connections between people summing it up that Obama was born in Russia and is a commie pinko or something. it was funny when Glenn did and when CNN did it.

Or he could be the victim of a botched robbery in a place that just happens to not have video surveillance like Seth Rich.

I still use W's Trump-like nickname for him. Pooty Poot. =================================================== Serious question for Tiberius - Do you think it's possible that Russia decided to interfere in the 2016 election but decided they didn't need Trump to do it? In fact, it makes more sense to NOT include Trump in case there's an investigation (like there was) they don't have to worry about being caught and possibly igniting an international incident/war. Trump's an idiot, right? He'd screw it up.

Hey, no doubt the Rooskies used our own stuff, ie, FakeBook and his handy feature of being able to target ads at specific racial/ethnic/political groups, Twitter, WahtsApp, Tumblr, ...to fool a lot of sheeple that believe believe all that crap. and guess what, they're gonna do it again. A ctually, they've already started. Citizens gotta be smarter this time. Put that $$hit down and and use your brain for once. RooSkies did the same number on Brexit the same way. Who were they colluding with on that one? still Doesn't come close to proving collusion or he is a "Russian Asset".

Perhaps, but do you REALLY think Trump is smart enough to collude with the Russian government and be able to hide it so well that a 2 year multi million dollar investigation could not find it?

Swallwell said on Bill Maher last night ? that he's getting in.
