THREAD This question made me think. I immediately responded "Beat Hillary," but I think for those with TDS it is really "was elected President." And that is what I think separates the #NeverTrump folks who have TDS and those who don't! I don't hate Trump. And I don't resent
2/ him being elected President. I always said "I will be devastated if Hillary wins or Trump doesn't lose." In retrospect, I was wrong, if only because of the courts...but in reality he has many more conservative victories. BUT even if he didn't, TDS is based on a prideful
3/ anger prompted because Trump is president. And for those claiming to be Republicans or conservatives who suffer from TDS, it is far more untethered than any anger they had b/c Obama was elected President over McCain, proving pride, envy, and anger, truly kill the soul. END

THREAD: First important point to recognize is the question posed here--it is NOT whether a Special Counsel can be constitutionally appointed, but rather whether Mueller has in practice been given such unfettered authority that he is acting as "principal officer," which under 1/
2/ constitution requires Senate confirmation. Initially, then, the panel will need to set some standard to judge how much authority is too much. I'd guess judges would establish a test that focuses on authority US attorneys have, and supervision by DOJ they are subject to and
3/ ask if theoretically and in practice, Mueller has the same/similar authority and has been subjected to same/more/less supervision. BUT after establishing the test, I highly doubt the panel can apply it: The court will need to remand to the lower court for record to be

THREAD: Some thoughts on Mattis resignation: I'm a hawk and prefer Mattis' views to Trump; Trump ran on a contrary view & is CIC; I don't know what strategy is & whether achievable; I wish Mattis were still there; I'd wager that 50% criticizing Trump truly disagree w/ Mattis 1/
2/ and wish he were out, except Trump; Mattis did it right, unlike Yates who refused to resign & instead grandstanded to the applause of Mueller's pitbull Weissmann; thankfully French forces are coming in to take over; French coming in will help Trump b/c he'll claim we don't
3/ need to expend our blood & money & that others need to do their fair share; he's not wrong; we will never be able to repay sacrifices of our men and women in the services and their families; what is solution to Syria at this point? No idea, but the fake redline get us here.

When son was 2, when he asked how I knew something, I told him it was b/c I had eyes behind my head. He shook head & said "no." But 3 minutes later while bending forward, he subtly slid my hair apparent behind head to look to see if I did have eyes there. So tonight, we had 1/
2/ this convo:
Me: "Let dad rest. He's exhausted. He stepped on nail & put through shoe & 1/2 foot & still worked his tail off after.
Son: "I know."
Me: "When you were little I told you dad use to have a squirrel tail but it fell off from working so hard.
Son: "Like time you
3/ son, cont., "said you had eyes in back of head and I checked?"
Me: "Yes, that was funny."
Son: "Well, I'm really glad I never check about dad having a tail."
Me:
Son: Smiling broadly
Me: "LOL. Okay, that was hilarious. I just got it!" END

I may have told you about Mama Tutu, if you haven’t read about her in any of my previous stories, let me re-introduce her.

#thread #FlashbackFriday
We lived in a compound with a story building of four flats Mama Tutu and Mama Ngozi lived on the ground floor while Sisi Mi, our landlady and Mama Bimbo (My mama) lived on the first floor. Mama Tutu’s flat was below ours while Mama Ngozi’s flat was below Simi Mi’s.
Mama Tutu was the only university graduate in our compound and she never hesitated to let the mothers know, and the kids too. This was why we spoke very little vernacular and zero pidgin around her because she would come down on you like a hammer.

Keep seeing this ‘No Arrest No Prosecution’ thing, by people who don’t really care for the truth. One of biggest myths of 2018. In every one of these States people have been arrested & are being prosecuted. One example: Zamfara, 117 arrests: google.com/amp/s/www.vang…

I think the starting point for commentary like this is to say that no death of any Nigerian at the hands of bandits & criminals is acceptable or justifiable. Even a single death is one too many. And one of the primary responsibilities of any Govt is security. That’s not in doubt.
So, this matter of ‘No Arrests No Prosecutions.’ It’s very far from true. The simplest of Google searches puts the lie to it.Also the Police regularly put out statements on large-scale arrests. I’ll share more links as part of this thread. This from Kaduna google.com/amp/s/punchng.…

Si vous avez aimé mon thread sur le foisonnement solaire mondial, alors vous adorerez cette suite, avec plein de compléments et précisions sur la surface au sol, le stockage, les lignes haute tension et la généralisation aux autres pays.

La question qui revenait le plus souvent concernait la surface au sol de tous ces panneaux photovoltaïques (3 x 60 GW en été, 5 x 370 GW en hiver).
On va prendre pour exemple la centrale solaire de Cestas en Gironde.
Inaugurée fin 2015, c’est la plus grande d’Europe avec 300 MW de puissance installée (presque 1 million de panneaux !).

"Sur le renouvelable oui il y a intermittence […] il y a une bonne méthode pour raccourcir la nuit, c’est d’avoir une interconnexion entre l’est et l’ouest"
-- Yannick Rousselet sur Thinkerview

Ah oui, vraiment ?

Let’s #thread !
⬇️⬇️
La question sous-jacente c’est : quel système faudrait-il en France pour "raccourcir la nuit" ?

Mais d’abord un préambule sur la production photovoltaïque, on parlera du raccourcissement de la nuit après.
On va commencer par enfoncer une porte ouverte : la production des panneaux photovoltaïques, c’est 0 la nuit jusqu’à ce que le soleil se lève, maximum vers le midi solaire (13h ou 14h donc), puis boum ça retombe à 0 le soir.

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE:

The Presidency rejects allegations of opposition politicians, as well as some newspaper editorial opinions creating the impression that President Buhari is against the use of card readers in the upcoming elections,... (Cont’d)
... hence his decision to decline assent, for the 3rd time, to the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill 2018.

We wish to state in clear & unambiguous terms that the issue of e-voting and use of card readers was NEVER an issue for the President’s decision to decline assent to the Bill.
It is equally important that this issue was not raised either by the Executive or the Legislature in the recent reviews. Moreover, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) adoption of e-voting reforms is enshrined in the 2015 Amendment Act to the Electoral Reform Act.

#THREAD: #mylifewithstan

There’s a scholar that I used to teach. His name is Stan. He’s wild. We’re really close and he often reaches out to me to keep me updated. Trust me. You want to read everything this child has to say.
Got my weekly call from Stan today. School has begun. Stan seems to have issues with all of his teachers...

Me: So tell me about your day...

Stan: There’s not much to tell. I was in and out of the dean’s office all day.

Me: It’s DAY TWO!
Stan: Actually, its day 233 of the actual year. I learn all year round.

Me: Okay Stan. Why were you in the dean’s office?

Stan: Because I gave the teachers advice.

Me: What kind of advice?

Stan: Well, the art teacher didn’t know what she was doing.
