I sure hope House Democrats start digging in on the question of why Mueller’s investigation concluded without questioning Trump under oath.

That’s a glaring omission, and every revelation about Trump’s DOJ makes it more certain that this omission was forced on Mueller by his political bosses.

Trump could not possibly testify under oath without contradicting himself of other sworn testimony, opening the door for perjury proceedings.

Since the wall needs to be built entirely on US soil, with maybe a margin for maintenance on each side, a wall is no barrier to claiming asylum. A person can walk up to the wall, be standing on US soil, and make their claim. I learned this from my congressperson. Her district includes lots of border. And she is a lawyer.

That really should be one of the first questions asked of him when he makes his appearance before Congress. The list seems to be growing by the day:

“Was your decision not to subpoena Trump’s testimony due to worry over it being blocked in the courts? Or that your own superiors would block it?”

“Did AGs Session, Barr, or DAG Rosenstein ever apply pressure upon you to bring your investigation to a premature close?”

“If not for existing DOJ policy concerning the indictment of a sitting president, would you have indicted Donald Trump for obstruction of justice?”

Some pundits have pointed out how unconventional of an announcement it was, given Biden’s years of legislative work and his run as VP.

Now that everyone is talking he may be in it to inflame Trump it does make sense in that out doing speeches is one thing, but Trump can put it down with his asking his base at rallies if they heard what Biden said and then doing his smarmy thing.

But with Joe as a candidate, he has to answer more directly because Trump will see it as a political target and go right at it. And of course he’ll be an asshole because he cannot be anything else.

Well, let’s hope he still doesn’t think that way, but 9 years isn’t that long ago when you consider how long people have been fighting to get it at least decriminalized. And to me, saying it is a gateway drug is 70s language. That is an age/generational thing.

Oh I totally agree. I just think they should have prefaced it with the fact that the statement was made 9 years ago. I happen to adamantly disagree with it and think you’re 100% right that it was a very out of touch statement but he should be asked where he stands now before going after him.

Amazon’s warehouse-worker tracking system can automatically fire people without a human supervisor’s involvement

Amazon’s demanding culture of worker productivity has been revealed in multiple investigations. But a new report indicates that the company doesn’t just track worker productivity at its warehouses — it also has a system that can automatically fire them.

Amazon has fired more than 300 workers, citing productivity, at a single facility in Baltimore in a single year (August 2017 through September 2018), The Verge’s Colin Lecher reported. The Verge cited a letter by an Amazon attorney as part of a case with the National Labor Relations Board.

Oh and we would all enjoy seeing this.

For all his flaws, and Jeebus knows they are many, Joe is 1) not stupid 2) really experienced in the ebb&flow of politics and 3) a clenched-jaw combative motherfucker when it comes to standing up for what he believes in.

You can do a lot with that. And in Trump’s tiny little lizard-brain, Biden = Obama, so Trump will blow his stack at criticism from that direction.

Plus we do have Biden to thank for pushing Obama in the direction of same-sex marriage. Because no-drama Obama wouldn’t have done it, but Biden backed him into a corner. From 2012:

Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. said on Sunday that he was “absolutely comfortable” with same-sex marriages and was heartened by their growing acceptance across the country, a position that moves well beyond the “evolving” views that President Obama has said he holds on the issue.

The comments, which aides described as the off-the-cuff views of a vice president not known for fidelity to a script, sent the White House scrambling to clarify that Mr. Biden was not articulating an official change in policy, a reaction that highlighted the administration’s unease over the subject.

This is interesting. Thomas Paine’s plan for progressive taxation 1791
ushistory.org

At the twenty-third thousand the tax becomes 20s. in the pound, and consequently every thousand beyond that sum can produce no profit but by dividing the estate. Yet formidable as this tax appears, it will not, I believe, produce so much as the commutation tax; should it produce more, it ought to be lowered to that amount upon estates under two or three thousand a year.

On small and middling estates it is lighter (as it is intended to be) than the commutation tax. It is not till after seven or eight thousand a year that it begins to be heavy. The object is not so much the produce of the tax as the justice of the measure. The aristocracy has screened itself too much, and this serves to restore a part of the lost equilibrium.

As an instance of its screening itself, it is only necessary to look back to the first establishment of the excise laws, at what is called the Restoration, or the coming of Charles the Second. The aristocratical interest then in power, commuted the feudal services itself was under, by laying a tax on beer brewed for sale; that is, they compounded with Charles for an exemption from those services for themselves and their heirs, by a tax to be paid by other people. The aristocracy do not purchase beer brewed for sale, but brew their own beer free of the duty, and if any commutation at that time were necessary, it ought to have been at the expense of those for whom the exemptions from those services were intended; [NOTE 1] instead of which, it was thrown on an entirely different class of men.

But the chief object of this progressive tax (besides the justice of rendering taxes more equal than they are) is, as already stated, to extirpate the overgrown influence arising from the unnatural law of primogeniture, and which is one of the principal sources of corruption at elections.

It would be attended with no good consequences to enquire how such vast estates as thirty, forty, or fifty thousand a year could commence, and that at a time when commerce and manufactures were not in a state to admit of such acquisitions. Let it be sufficient to remedy the evil by putting them in a condition of descending again to the community by the quiet means of apportioning them among all the heirs and heiresses of those families. This will be the more necessary, because hitherto the aristocracy have quartered their younger children and connections upon the public in useless posts, places and offices, which when abolished will leave them destitute, unless the law of primogeniture be also abolished or superseded.

A progressive tax will, in a great measure, effect this object, and that as a matter of interest to the parties most immediately concerned, as will be seen by the following table; which shows the net produce upon every estate, after subtracting the tax. By this it will appear that after an estate exceeds thirteen or fourteen thousand a year, the remainder produces but little profit to the holder, and consequently, Will pass either to the younger children, or to other kindred.

More deliberate jamming of the system:

According to Dana Leigh Marks, an immigration judge, having military lawyers with little or no experience in such cases could slow down the proceedings because judges will have to explain procedures to them.”

There was a house fire with 3 victims she was attending to when her then-teen daughter came to get money for a school something. Busy, she told her daughter to wait for her to finish before she could get to her locker to fetch the $.

When she got free to get her daughter taken care of, her daughter asked if she could stay for lunch. Perplexed, her mom asked why would you want to do that? Her daughter answered: the barbecue smells sooo good. I’m hungry.

I started shrieking OMG! OMG! about then.

Mmm-hmm. She was smelling burnt people flesh.
