    Saw that last night. Funny how the tone and immaturity of that tweet bears similarity to others posted by the Don. Must have the same taste.

    The article by Rolling Stone (amazingly pretty insightful) I think sums up a lot of how this whole Russia hacking has played out and the Obama response. It leaves you doubting it just enough that it's hard to discern exactly what happened.

    What is of concern is that this only reinforces how much influence the Don has over how not only Americans communicate, but other countries. The age of immaturity and childishness is upon us. Lower your standards because the President does. Horse shit. It will take us 10 years to reverse the damage done in civil and respectful communication alone.

    I haven't seen Obama say that Russia rigged the election. The ground work has been laid for hacking and interference with how there was influence based on the selected content leaked.

    Shouldn't the standard policy be to assume that Russia, China, N. Korea are always trying to hack the US and that the governing bodies should be doing everything possible NOT TO LET THEM? Instead, people like Hillary are "careless" with their information...You cannot complain about hackers when you are a dumbass and are "careless" with information...Shouldn't the headlines be "Russia hacked the US because of dumbass politicians being careless"?

    My work colleague has a countdown clock.

    But yeah, it still will be an improvement based on EPA and Dept of Ed picks alone.

    Yes, it should and is. There are plenty of dumbasses all over the place and some are in positions of national security and one soon will be at the top of the heap. I'm more concerned about how many dumbasses believe that the "emails" revealed something that only happens with Democrats or found anything of substance in that mass of distracting crap. That's the real issue with the hacking. Russia (or insert favorite country) has publicly been denounced for actually achieving this and selectively releasing things that had the intention of swaying votes a certain way. Do you think they randomly attacked and released only one party's information, but couldn't access the other?

    I work with 500 other employees and someone always clicks on one of those stupid links no matter how many times a message is sent out not to. This was clearly a selective hack with an intent.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Anyone with a countdown clock running for anything besides cooking, NYE or timed tests seems a bit off to me....

    you have fracking going on in your backyard? or maybe your employer can store the spent fuel there. perhaps the best use would be to run some oil pipelines there instead. but they'll use people educated under the do it for profit education model his Ed pick promotes.

    Yes, the big bad dept of Ed. If I remember right, you said they were forcing kids to be on meds or something. You're too easy. I have a bridge to sell you, and the government wasn't involved in the design or construction of it whatsoever.

    Then don't cry about the unemployment rate when American companies can't find enough educated Americans to fill American jobs. The US is falling further and further behind the rest of the industrialized world in this metric. Oh wait, you want to return to an agrarian collective bartering society where education isn't necessary to hold a job. Never mind. Have fun picking potatoes for a couple of chickens and if you're really productive, a goat or lamb. Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
