If you're "hoping he'll improve his tone" and crossing your fingers that his campaign will someday approach respectability maybe you should have waited on endorsing him.

For a minute I really thought Ryan would extract some sort of concession or promise to behave out of Trump before backing him but he couldn't even manage to do that.
He couldn't get the GOP to really give him any concessions for becoming Speaker after Boehner quit, there's no way in hell he would convince Trump to give him a thing.

The FEC is mandated to always have 3 Dems and 3 Republicans. Although, technically the President appoints all the members, but the Senate leadership of the other party gets to put some names up and the President only rejects them in extreme circumstances.

The FCC, SEC, etc would all start stacking with Dem appointees though.

A very loving good thing. When the best opportunities for advancement come from being a Democrat, the best individuals to advance will be open with their commitment to the party.

I like listening to NPR during my commute.

Sometimes I listen to NPR and I hear something that sets the slow cogs of my mind in a new direction. Recently there have been a few stories about parents with transgender kids (kids as in under 10). These positive stories show how parents and other kids can accept a transgender child. I never considered the idea of transgender children, or that it is possible to be transgender at such a young age. Then again, it was not possible to be a transgender child during previous decades. And since gender identify doesn't correspond with sexual orientation, maybe gender identity is just a consequence of social expectations. Man, gently caress gender identies. Unisex everything. I want to wear skirts drat it. loving pants sucks in this hot and humid Texas weather.

Then I arrive at work.

Make sure to listen through it when you get a chance, it's very well presented in a way that just text wouldn't do it justice.

http://wfla.com/2016/06/02/indiana-teen-goes-on-purge-allegedly-killed-three-people-in-four-days/

quote:

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – An Indianapolis teenager is charged with 17 counts, including murder and armed robbery. Prosecutors said he bragged about killing three people to friends and picked his victims at random.

Jonathan Cruz, 19, will make his first court appearance Thursday afternoon. The crime spree allegedly happened over a time span of four days between May 12th to May 15th on the north and east side of Indianapolis.

Cruz is first accused of killing two men on May 12. Court documents link Cruz to the murder of Billy Boyd, who was found dead on a sidewalk, shot in the head twice. From there, Cruz is believed to have murdered Jay Higgenbotham, who had been shot multiple times. Days later, prosecutors believe he murdered Jose Ruiz.

He is also accused of committing an armed robbery May 14. A victim said he was robbed of cash and two cell phones by two men. Those men have been identified as Cruz and 18-year-old Steven Clark.

Cruz told one person he had been “purging” in reference to a movie.

“For those of you familiar with the movie ‘The Purge’ the premise of that movie was for one night each year the government would allow citizens to commit any crime without fear of prosecution,” said Terry Curry, Marion County Prosecutor.

A criminal gang enhancement has also been filed, which could result in a doubling of Cruz’s sentence, if convicted.

“Just when you think you cannot experience anything more inexplicable and shocking as we frequently do, you’re then confronted with circumstances that almost leave you at a loss for words,” said Curry.

“We couldn’t really pin point why this was occurring,” said Chief Troy Riggs, IMPD. “We were very concerned we may have additional victims.”

But investigators said someone came forward with valuable information. This person said Cruz tried to show her a video of a shooting on his phone.

Not only that, investigators also collected evidence from social media, photos, videos, and text messages. Like his alleged messages that read, “I purge every night.” and “I should go kill your step dad, but I’m most likely already going to be on the news.”

People are hosed up.

Imagine Hillary giving one of these kinds of speeches every month from now until November just trashing whatever insane poo poo Trump did in the meantime.

The intervening weeks would have Bill, Obama, and Biden rotating events just clowning on Trump and the GOP in their own well-honed ways. Cable news, who are already making GBS threads on Trump because he's being an rear end in a top hat on a personal level to individual reporters, will inflate coverage and discussion of those speeches while exaggerating how long it takes for Trump to respond before panning another hotheaded twitter fart ending in "Sad!" All the while, news about the progress of Trump's fraud university lawsuit gets dripped into the news as it happens, with all the fanfare and cut graphics of a plane crash.

CNN has a list of the top burn lines from the speech. The top thirty-four of them: http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/02/politics/hillary-clinton-attack-lines-donald-trump-foreign-policy/index.html

"He believes we can treat the U.S. economy like one of his casinos and default on our debts to the rest of the world, which would cause an economic catastrophe far worse than anything we experienced in 2008."
