Mexico wall - now with added blockchain!

Ohio Congressman: We can fund border wall with “WallCoin”

As President Donald Trump threatened to allow a government shutdown if Congress did not provide funding for his proposed wall along the Mexican border, a Republican congressman from Ohio offered up alternative routes to getting the wall built: through Internet crowdfunding or through an initial coin offering.

During an interview with NPR's Morning Edition on December 12, Rep. Warren Davidson said that he had offered what he referred to as a "modest proposal" in the form of his "Buy a Brick, Build a Wall Act." The bill, which he submitted on November 30, would authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to accept monetary gifts from anyone "on the condition that it be used to plan, design, construct, or maintain a barrier along the international border between the United States and Mexico." The funds would go into an account called the "Border Wall Trust Fund," and a public website would be set up to process donations electronically.

I like how NPR interviwers fight back now when some piece of crap tells a lie on the air. Yeah, I listened to him, he was in full Trumpinisti rhetoric mode and the reporter had to interrupt him several times to "clarify" his "mistatements".

Just something on the grapevine.. anyone seeing anything along these lines on the newswires?

Gracious Anthracite: "uspol (+)" - Dragon Style

So um an entire floor at a Washington DC federal courthouse has been sealed off for a "mystery case". Reporters can't tell who's going in or out.
It's beginning to look a lot like Muellermas~

Still haven't heard or seen anything about this yet.

Aha! This sounds like it.

Reporters shooed away as mystery Mueller subpoena fight rages on

Special counsel Robert Mueller appeared to be locked in a subpoena battle with a recalcitrant witness Friday in a sealed federal appeals courtroom, the latest development in a mystery case that has piqued the curiosity of Mueller-obsessives and scoop-hungry journalists.

Oral arguments in the highly secretive fight played out behind closed doors under tight security. Officials at the U.S. Courthouse in Washington, D.C. even took the extraordinary measure of shutting down to the public the entire fifth floor, where the hearing was taking place.

Today is the anniversary of the Sandy Hook massacre, and the new Sandy Hook Elementary school was evacuated this morning due to a threat of some kind.

I'm assuming this is talc, which is a finely ground mineral. It has had problems in the past and so it's not surprizing if other mineral contaminants are in it. Why is ANYONE exposing their lungs to finely ground minerals when we all know about black lung and asbestosis, let alone selling it?

Best to use cornstarch, which is also sold next to the talc.

If we're still on the subject of old dudes, what is up with richard dawkins? (From family feud)

Every dude I talk to says hes smooth while every woman I talk to says hes a creep master (i agree with the latter).
IS THIS THE DISSCONNECT????

Customers of the entire "salt-breathing wellness" industry need to be asked this question.

Carlin is a comedy professional: he pays attention to ticket sales, book sales, not breaking his base, and a pathological fear of having to work dive bars at midnight again for tips in two-traffic-light towns in 'Jersey.

I don't think he cares as much since he passed away...

Now here's a question I bet not many people think to ask when applying for a place to study at university: If I'm surrounded by invading terrorists, will you send mercenaries to rescue me and my family?

Which is a shame because if the university is Sweden's Lund University, the answer is yes.

Lund professor freed student from Islamic State war zone

Charlotta Turner, professor in Analytical Chemistry, received a text message from her student Firas Jumaah in 2014 telling her to to assume he would not finish his thesis if he had not returned within a week.

He and his family were, he told her, hiding out in a disused bleach factory, with the sounds of gunshots from Isis warriors roaming the town reverberating around them. Jumaah, who is from Iraq, is a member of the ethno-religious group Yazidi hated by Isis.
...
She contacted the university's then security chief Per Gustafson.

"It was almost as if he'd been waiting for this kind of mission," Turner said. "Per Gustafson said that we had a transport and security deal which stretched over the whole world."

Meanwhile in Australia, a Member of Parliament just can't help but get into it with any rando on the Twitter Dot Com. This whole thread is a thing of beauty.

The Weekly Standard, a conservative magazine critical of Trump, to shutter after 23 years | CNN

Not quite sure what to think about this. One the one hand, it's another bastion of conservativism; on the other, they've apparently been pretty critical of Trump (probably because he doesn't swing far enough right for them).
