Lots of sites have conditions at the ski areas. I want to know where the weather is. Mainly just a question of the storm track and what's coming. I suppose I could look at weather forecasts for each ski area, but that's pretty labor intensive. What I want is the overview. Any suggestions?#
I am beginning to think we're seeing people exiting the dollar as the reserve currency. Wondering when the panic is going to start, or if it already has.#
Unfortunately we're going to have to watch Trump dentures at war with Trump brain many more times, bigly, but it's necessary to make America great again.#
Jonathan Chait points out that the press has never considered the claims of the Steele dossier credible. I have the opposite take. I think they're obviously true, are the simplest explanation of Trump's behavior. Trump goes to Moscow, flattered and bribed, gets in bed with Russians, it fits his lifestyle. I don't see why people don't believe it. #
An old joke. Human goes into doctor's office. Doctor says I have good news and bad news. Give me bad news first. You have cancer, you'll be dead in 2 weeks. Geez what's the good news? I just won the lottery! 💥#
- I understand why other Democratic senators want Franken to resign, but they aren't the whole universe. They may believe the women, always, 100 percent, but the world isn't that simple. Remember all the fake trolls who threw the 2016 election and the aftermath we're dealing with now. Let the dust settle. Develop a process for dealing with this kind of situation, so next time there won't be a precedent of the man just leaving in disgrace. Franken may be guilty, or not. We have principles in this country to uphold. Just walking away makes it that much more of a problem for the next man who is accused. Don't make a cliché out of the presumption of innocence. It's an important principle. The Democratic senators have said their piece. Now let's have a process, and let's examine the facts. #
- Update: Franken resigned. #
