So, yet another PNW shit show. And look who's spearheading it this time. Sigh.
Did I mention that I have a history with @michellemalkin? I have a history with Michelle Malkin.

@michellemalkin I believe that the style of populism that she pioneered with her book 'In Defense of Internment'--openly eliminationist, irredeemably bigoted, and yet treated as a normal publication-- helped clear the way for Trumpism.

dneiwert.blogspot.com/2007/04/populi…
@michellemalkin I talked to her at a book signing and elicited a promise from her to do a phone interview wherein I could finally ask her all the questions I wanted to ask her.

She balked, of course.

Thus: Balkin' Malkin.

I'm old enough to remember when right-wing militiamen and Trump supporters were preparing to have a civil war if Trump lost. All the way back in 2016.
Also old enough to recall how they quickly shifted to raving paranoia about a massive "Deep State" conspiracy to remove Trump from office in a "coup." That was all the way back in 2017.
One reason perhaps not to worry: Milo has volunteered to be the leader of this civil war.

So I was going to respond to this tweet:
My response:

I had a niece in the Highway 51 crowd in Vegas 10/1/17 when a conspiracist nutcase opened fire and killed 73 people and wounded another 400. She barely escaped with her life and is permanently traumatized.

Eventually, it will touch every single one of us.
Ah, but.

I have never liked Ed Rendell one iota. He's always been the worst kind of Democrat: Urging them to eviscerate themselves before they even begin to fight.

wapo.st/2ZTnD49?tid=ss…
Rendell was one of those Democrats obsessed with deficits to the exclusion of all else during the recovery from the recession -- one of the gurus of the disastrous "austerity" approach that flattened job growth in the Obama years.

He also has an oft-remarked soft spot for far-right nutcases.

1/ As promised, here's an overview of the appointment process and policy platform of the 13th Commission President.

(Not counting the non-canon ones like the pre-merger treaty ECSC and Euratom presidents, or the War President, who filled in between the 9th and 10th presidents)
2/ How are Commission presidents appointed?

Traditionally in the same way as the heads of other international bodies: by agreement of governments, sometimes after lots of grumpy backroom negotiations.

This even applies to the no-dealers' blessed WTO (gasp)
3/ Over time, the *elected* (cough) European Parliament was given a role in appointment of the Commission President, alongside *elected* (cough) governments. First consulted, then given a vote of approval, ie veto. Here's the current legal rule.

Look at this fascinating insect that I discovered at a friend's house today:
This bug reminds me of why the internet serves as such an excellent resource!

I took out my @SamsungMobile Galaxy, opened my #GoogleAssistant, and said, "orange and black insects in eastern North Carolina."
VOILA!

My Assistant immediately referred me to a page maintained by @NCSU_PDIC, the NC State University's Plant Disease and Insect Clinic:

Trump's "9/11" attack on @IlhanMN was not just the amplification of a "controversy" created by a rightwing rage machine, as @brianstelter said on @CNN. There's a MUCH bigger creation story behind that: 1/12 salon.com/2019/04/20/cam…
To begin, @brianstelter was 100% right: "Controversies don't just erupt like a bolt of lightning sparking a fire. No. Controversies are created like an arsonist lighting a match.” 2/12
But there's a 2-fold story *behind* that story: how the right-wing rage machine was created in the first place. @DavidNeiwert explains the basic architecture & @chris_bail explains how Islamophobia got added relatively late. 3/12

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.

(1) @Debradelai @drawandstrike @Imperator_Rex3 @ThomasWictor Conservative Twitter Intelligentsia, ASSEMBLE! I've been digging through the new Magintsky sanctions, doing google searches based on this bit from the US Treasury home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel… and I've found something HUGE
(2) I've only dug through 2 names so far, and what I've found, well, lets see who else connects the dots. First, Yahya Jammeh, Gambian dictator who was buddy buddy with the Obama and Clinton administration washingtonblade.com/2014/12/05/oba…
(3) Why the Clinton administration? Apparently because the CIA under Clinton was the one who initially installed him in Gambia via a coup! strategic-culture.org/news/2017/01/2…
