Angry dude in addition to being anti-Semitic and who, at the 2013 concert, had a giant pig shaped balloon with The Star of David drop from the ceiling, and was wearing attire that was reminiscent of a Nazi uniform.  :(

Roger Waters Slammed For Allegedly Anti-Semitic Pig Balloon Displayed At Recent Concert

Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters has found himself in hot water after he insulted the Jewish community with a seemingly anti-Semitic display at a recent concert.

The incident happened Saturday, July 20 at a concert in Belgium, according to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. A giant, pig-shaped balloon emblazoned with the Star of David, as well as dictatorial symbols, dropped from the ceiling while Waters performed. His attire reportedly consisted of a long leather jacket and red-and-white arm band, “reminiscent of a Nazi uniform,” per JTA. He was also carrying a fake machine gun.

This would’ve been soul crushing if I liked Pink Floyd . That isn’t punk in ‘77 trying to get a response, 2013. Yikes

Pink Floyd is my all time favorite band.  But thank god I can divide the music from the person. Rogers got issues, that’s also what likely made his music so great.

Indeed, I can too. I still like The Smiths music and Morrissey's solo work, despite Morrissey's being anti-immigrant and his racist remarks describing Chinese people as a "subspecies" or supporting a white nationalist political party in the UK.

Which should result in more accusations of political interference by the Trump Administration in the judicial process.

I am not sure what there really is to review here since Flynn pleaded guilty making false statements to the FBI. No one would plead guilty to such a charge if they thought they were innocent.

The altered 302 is huge.  FBI shouldn't be making changes to documents after people sign them.  But that was the FBI's go to move during RussiaGate.

Why the hate for chick fil a?  Can separate music but not chicken?

I am not buying any future LPs by Morrissey. I can still enjoy playing his music, as that money was spent decades ago. But I am not adding to his current income by buying any new releases. 

Eating at Chick-Fil-A would have been indirectly supporting their then anti-LGBT+ charitable  contributions. However they have seen the error of their ways and have reportedly discontinued such donations, so the boycott of their "yummy" chicken sandwiches is over.

Per 538: Since polling, 8 presidents ran for reelection after full first term. Net approval ratings on day 1121 for winners:

  • DDE +62.2
  • RWR +19.3
  • RMN + 17.6
  • WJC +6.7
  • GWB +4.5
  • BHO +2.1
Losers:

  • JEC +21.9 (hostages)
  • GHWB -1.5
Trump is -8.9. [which is his best standing in nearly three years]

It has been clear to me for some time that the FBI is corrupt. How corrupt is still open for debate, but there has been no doubt in my mind about it, at the highest levels. This is, of course, nothing new. Under Hoover, it was as corrupt as such things can be. Still, we had hoped, in 2016 that was behind us. Not so.

This at Real Clear Investigations piece is scary. Any American should be horrified, but of course, the left will not be, and Never Trumpers won’t be, because let’s face it, there is nothing that will make either one of those groups change their mind. The Never Trumpers who can be won over have been (welcome all).

A month before the 2016 presidential election, the FBI met Christopher Steele in Rome and apparently unlawfully shared with the foreign opposition researcher some of the bureau’s most closely held secrets, according to unpublicized disclosures in the recent Justice Department Inspector General report on abuses of federal surveillance powers.

That is the opening paragraph. While DOJ lawyers want to put people away for seven years for process crimes, the FBI is breaking the law to help a candidate go after another in a presidential election.

The FBI’s decision to share classified information with a partisan operative and private foreign citizen is all the more curious because the team investigating figures associated with the presidential campaign of Donald Trump made extensive efforts to keep the very fact of Crossfire Hurricane a secret from their own colleagues at the bureau.

I have been in the behavioral health business for almost 30 years. I can tell you when people are hiding secrets from their friends, they are doing something wrong. It is clear the people doing this knew it was wrong when they were doing it.

The closing paragraphs are the strongest:

To appreciate the magnitude of the FBI’s breach of the rules governing classified materials, consider how the bureau’s former Director James Comey and former General Counsel James Baker have used classification to limit what Michael Horowitz was able to ask them. Comey and Baker “chose not to request that their security clearances be reinstated for their OIG interviews,” the Inspector General writes. “Therefore, we were unable to provide classified information or documents to them during their interviews to develop their testimony, or to assist their recollections of relevant events.”

The idea that the FBI is gratuitously sharing classified information with a foreign informant is rather extraordinary, says lawyer Bigley. “If one of my clients did this, they would be stripped of their security clearance, out of a job, and probably facing indictment.”

If nothing comes from this, we can be sure America is a banana republic now. The power of the DOJ is only to be used against conservatives and enemies of the deep state. The rules are only to advance their agenda. The laws are only enforced to attack their enemies.

I expect this information will be ignored across the board.

Spending some time in AZ.  I went to an outdoor market today, lots of vendors, clothing, food, etc.  The vendor with the longest line (5+ people) was selling Trump t-shirts, MAG hats, etc.  I guess he is loved in AZ.

I see Trump is having a keep America great rally  Wednesday in Phoenix.  My neighbor claims all the tickets are already taken.  I guess this is why everyone wanted the Trump clothing.

That’s what they said in 2016 that Hillary would beat him.  No confidence in polling.  Ask Biden how the polls are treating him after being an early favorite.

538 is always great until it’s completely wrong like with those two examples. It doesn’t take into account any of the human aspect or any actual voter enthusiasm on the ground.
 

For example, I called the Mayor Pete win in Iowa on January 15 in his thread 3 weeks before the caucus (go look whoever doesn’t believe me). Sanders and Biden were well ahead of him on 538. At the time I was in the state for several weeks and saw many more Pete signs and talked to many more Pete supporters than Biden. Everybody knew it was a joke they had Biden leading.

Their projections for the dem nominee completely changed after Iowa. If they were any good they would have predicted what was going to happen to Biden, we all did.

They average out polls and weigh those that are more historically accurate. Sounds like everyone in here predicts everything accurately. You all could make some good money selling this data.
