This thread is worth following. Seth Abramson has done a lot of good work explaining what all of this has meant, (it’s all loving bad for Trump) and doesn’t seem like breathless Louise Mensch type stuff at all.

I get the whole big stupid Twitter thread multi comment poo poo. Some people like it I guess. Can I just ask for a real write up too? Long form style? In a link? To somewhere not loving Twitter which is the wrong goddamn platform for it? Fucker wrote 30 loving tweets.

Greek media portrays Papajohnalus as way more important to foreign policy than the Trump team is saying. That is important because the Russian ties will curtail Turkish power in the region somehow (I think?) The campaign fired him, "his piece was done." Then rehired him shortly before the election to go after Hillary some more. It's more of the administration says one thing but reality is the opposite. I almost wish that there was competence at more levels so the world isn't constantly bombarded with how stupid and corrupt these people are. I won't be surprised if our next president isn't given a Nobel prize right off the bat again just for being somebody not insane. poo poo, I don't really care if there's a power hungry, racist, homophobic, retard in the presidential palace of some shithole in South America or Eastern Europe. This is the goddamn USA though. We're supposed to represent, not be reprehensible.

Thing is, Anger Mango isn't talking to anyone but his mouth breathing base with this stuff. If he manages to gently caress up the entire trial and the guy gets off completely free because of his tweets, his base is just so loving stupid they will see it as more proof of how right Strong Daddy Trump is and how corrupt the entire judicial branch is. "Obviously a terrorist is guilty, how could they not lock him up? The judge is an ISIS sympathizer and the only way things can be put right is for Real Americans to use some second amendment solutions. Trump warned us, he's said from day one these so-called judges can't be trusted" and so on.

That’s a hell of a lot quicker than a federal trial, unless Trump is confusing the process of releasing detainees with convicting them. Which of course he is.

Nah I'm willing to bet it's additional support for the arching above the grand gallery. There's voids above the King's chamber too for pressure relief on the granite slabs Even though Egypt is a bit of a shithole I recommend that everyone who has even a small interest in ancient history go see it. Khufu's pyramid is legit the most impressive thing I've ever seen and the king's chamber is otherworldly. That whole room seems to just absorb light. If you get there early before the tourist busses show up and get inside when there's only a guard, go over to the sarcophagus, put your hands on it and close your eyes. It's the closest thing I've ever experienced to an out-of-body experience.

Zeroisanumber posted:GOP tax plan came out. Mortgage interest tax credit capped at $500k instead of the current $1m, per the plan. Also, RIP student loan interest tax credit. https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/926093173683904513 I highly doubt the plan passes the Byrd rule though, not enough revenue for the cuts they're making. It's designed to *maybe* get out of the House, then the Senate laughs hard and passes their own thing.

They're pushing significant reductions in take home pay for the demographic that is extremely leveraged and forms the foundation for most of the economy. It's like taking one more piece from a jenga game after it was already deemed impossible.

Halving the mortgage interest tax credit is one of the few parts of the tax plan that doesn't gently caress poor and middle class people, and if this does trigger some kind of crisis, then there was a bubble and it was going to pop sooner or later.

In high price markets it does. As ridiculous as it sounds, a $700k house in some areas IS middle class.

This would make the mortgage interest credit cutoff lower then the VA home loan max in some areas. Housing is expensive in urban areas and it's not a bubble.

Expensive is defined by the ability to actually qualify for the loans and pay off the house at a local income rate. Most areas where housing is inexpensive requires you to either drive long commutes to seek a job that'll allow you to afford said loans.

I know a couple in Seattle who bought their 900 square foot house for $160k back in 2004, it's worth close to a half-million now. This is a big "gently caress you!" to coastal states and I don't think the GOP shitheads from those states are going to go along with it.

Wealth inequality being kicked up to 11 will do all kinds of fun poo poo. I'm speaking more in the immediate sense of not passing Two Scoop's 'cut cut cut' plan. A whooooole lot of people paid good money to get those cuts.
