The Trump Administration Has Some of the Stupidest People On Earth

They think that if you have insurance and you don't submit claims, that you're committing fraud.

Assistant AG for Fraud Colin McDonald: "Apparently 35% of people have never even used their Obamacare account for any health services. That is a statistical impossibility and it's because these are not real people seeking real care. These are fraudsters."

Cornell U. Loves Them Their Sex Criminals

Seven Cornell fraternity members allegedly drugged a 20-year-old woman with ketamine and raped her over several hours while urging others to join, a new lawsuit claims.
...
The 101-page filing centers on a set of group-chat messages sent as the woman lay assaulted. One member wrote "free p—y" to a Snapchat group called "Chi Phi Actives" at 1:42 a.m., according to a screenshot filed with the court and reported by the Post. Another replied that it was "crazy work," and a third wrote that others could "walk in and whip it out," the filing states.
...
Cornell later gave the accused a chance to "mitigate their conduct by submitting essays," the suit alleges, though the university declined to confirm that account to the Post.

Having to write an essay about why it's wrong to drug and then rape a woman? Oh, the humanity!

So, lads, if you're applying for college and raping drugged women sounds like fun, then apply to Cornell U. Special tuition rates for those with MAGA pedigrees.

The Pettiest President

The White House left CNN off Air Force One for President Donald Trump’s trip Saturday to a college football game in Tennessee, marking the latest media restriction from the administration in an ongoing dispute with First Amendment implications.

CNN, a member of the U.S. network video pool that rotates duties shooting and sharing video coverage of the president, reported it had been scheduled to fly aboard the president’s plane Saturday for a visit to a midday game between the University of Tennessee in Knoxville and the University of Texas. But White House guidance issued Friday night instead included Real America’s Voice, a conservative outlet.

Whenever there is an opportunity for Trump to behave like a petulant spoiled child, he never passes up the chance.

If I Were a Bettor on a "Prediction Site"...

... I'd bet on three things:

• China moves on Taiwan by the end of next year.
• Russia moves on one or more of the Baltic nations by the end of next year.
• The U.S. moves on Cuba sooner than the other two.

What is forming is a Superpower Axis of Evil, led by two dictators and one dimwit.

We may be seeing a revival of a form of the colonial spheres of influence, in which the major powers carved up areas of the globe, saying, in essence "this is ours and this is yours". Xi and Putin seem to be very interested in doing something like that, and they both believe that they can flatter Dementia Don the Diapered Dotard into going along with them.

Remember This

If you had a dollar for every transgendered athelete who was playing in the NCAA before Trump's jihad, you would not have enough money to buy a gallon of diesel fuel.

That what what his bullshit was all about: Focusing the might of the Federal government on a group of people who could not fill up all of the seats on an airport parking lot shuttle bus.

But that was enough to energize all of the brain-dead MAGAts, wasn't it.
