Being reported

NEW: Stephen Miller has tested positive for COVID, per senior administration official. Adds Miller has been working remotely for last 5 days, testing negative every day through yesterday, and is in quarantine after a positive test today.

Mazeltov. I wish him all the tzuris his shonda has been causing everyone else, especially those without papers and those at our borders all together in one unimaginable dose. And a long slow iffy recovery, of course.

Fac-I'm not an observant or religious man, (though I think I'm a moral man) and would describe myself as agnostic, but at times like these, I think there may be a God.

There is gravity and there are at most four types of human drama in the world.

Now trump world is starting to get as sick in the body as they always have been in every other imaginable way.

I’d spit on them if it would make matters worse for them, but their own spittle is deadly enough at the moment.

I'll field one troll post per day,  and then I'm done.   Does he ever bring facts,  or just what he imagines/projects Democrats are feeling?   I notice he never responded to Bart's factual article on why the Chicago uptick in shootings.   Factophobia?

kid's a disingenuous idiot-troll.

And that's the nicest thing that can be said of him.

Kiid is like the skin heads we’d rough up and toss out the back stairs into the alley. This being 2020, he easily respawns and graces us once again with his wit and wisdom.

It’s an unfortunate he gets all that wit and wisdom babybirded into him by a diseased turkey with a death wish, not just for himself but for everyone.

Fast forward to 13:30

Seen it on your recommendation prior.

Kiid still doesn’t know when his services will no longer be required to ballast the air ship. Funny thing is, neither does trump.

White supremacists remain deadliest US terror threat, Homeland Security report says

Quote
"As Secretary, I am concerned about any form of violent extremism," wrote acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf. "However, I am particularly concerned about white supremacist violent extremists who have been exceptionally lethal in their abhorrent, targeted attacks in recent years."

That's today.

Kiid is in the Cult and they believe in Trump regardless who is pulling his strings.

More fallout from the Covid positive party, using herd mentality to build herd immunity sucking everyone into their dance macabre whether they are willing or not.

Some people are inclined to act out their fantasies no matter how stupidly damaging they are.

Some people are inclined to support and even follow monstrosities like that.

Sad for everyone.

Best quote ever. Women like this are why half the county is not as fucked as trump would like it to be.

“There are people who thought, who think that steroids have an impact on your thinking. So, I don’t know," Pelosi said. “I do practice medicine on the side without benefit of diploma, as a mother and a grandmother, but I hadn’t gone into mental health yet.”

Trump is more pissed at and scared of republicans than he is of everyone else at the moment. He’s flexing his leverage on them.

It will be interesting politically to see if trump can get coherent enough to claw back up and get the race back within 15 points.

While there is zero sympathy, there is some amazement at how little some people have managed to learn.

Amy Covid Barrett's Handmaid's Tale:

https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/oct/06/amy-coney-barrett-people-of-praise-home

Amy Coney Barrett lived in the home of one of the founders of the People of Praise while she was a law student, raising new questions about the supreme court nominee’s involvement with the secretive Christian faith group that has been criticized for dominating the lives of its members and subjugating women.

Amy Coney Barrett: quick confirmation under threat as three senators infected
Public records examined by the Guardian show that Barrett, a conservative 48-year-old appeals court judge who has been put up to fill the vacant seat left by the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, lived in a nine-bedroom South Bend, Indiana, residence owned at the time by Kevin Ranaghan, a religious scholar and a co-founder of Barrett’s faith group, during law school.


The revelation offers new clues about the possible influence of the People of Praise, and one of its leaders, on a woman who may shape the direction of the supreme court for the next 40 to 50 years. Barrett has said she is a “faithful Catholic” but that her religious beliefs would not “bear in the discharge of my duties as a judge”.

Public records – and a record of a speeding ticket – show that Barrett’s husband, Jesse, apparently also lived in the home in the years before their 1999 marriage. The public records examined by the Guardian show where individuals receive their mail, including bills. It is difficult, based on the records alone, to determine when precisely individuals lived in the residence. The database shows no other residence for Amy Barrett at that time.

Amy Barrett, who as Amy Coney graduated from Notre Dame Law in 1997 at the top of her class, has said she met Jesse while she was in law school but has not offered other details. Records show that other individuals who appear to be members of the People of Praise have also gotten married following periods of living in the Ranaghan household...
