Random Donald J Turnip advert I just had to sit through while I'm trying to waste time on YouTube was annoying. Something about adding your name to his supporters list tonight before 9PM, witch hunts, hoaxes, high poll numbers BS...

Turned it back on and happily blocking with no video issues. Must have been a glitch in the MAGA.

Things that I'd like to see happen:
  • Congress/Senate shouldn't get paid either while the shutdown is in effect
  • They should also have to have ACA healthcare
  • Mango to realize that all of the famous walls in history have failed in their objective; Hadrian's, China's, Berlin's.

BS, Congress doesn’t care if they don’t get paid, nearly all are extremely wealthy, plus lobbiests and other contributions.

What they should do is actually shut down the government, no ATC, no NORAD, no military, no police, fire, postal service, etc. If the parties fail to reach an agreement before shutdown, they should all be replaced. Then it’s not just a political stunt and forces them to compromise and get it done.

What if Trump gave a prime time news conference and no networks showed it?

President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he would address the nation from the Oval Office on Tuesday evening to discuss what he called the crisis at the southern border, and the White House said that later in the week he would travel to the border as part of his effort to persuade Americans of the need for a wall — the sticking point in negotiations with Democrats which caused a government shutdown.

It was not immediately clear which outlets would carry his address. The four major broadcast networks — ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC — confirmed receiving the White House request on Monday for Trump to speak during the 9 p.m. ET slot, but producers had not decided whether to grant him the time. Pre-empting prime-time coverage is an expensive proposition for television executives, who have sold millions of dollars’ worth of advertising against entertainment programming

Dmitry Rybolovlev’s story is typical of many Russian oligarchs. He made his fortune as a potash miner until the Kremlin bought him out, sending him into a friendly “exile”. Rybolovlev chose the Grimaldi House of Monaco to set up shop. He bought the luxurious penthouse “La Belle Epoque” on Monaco’s famous seaside cliffs, the AC Monaco football team, 10% in the Bank of Cyprus and allegedly an extensive network of corruptable judges, ministers and other officials.

Psy-Group is based in Israel but it is registered in Cyprus and corporately aligns in off-shore holding databases with companies owned by Russian oligarchs and banks.

Seems like there will be a Trump speech and a Schumer/Pelosi rebuttal afterwards. I'll watch both eventually as well as pore over the resultant fact checker articles for each.
