Agreed.  Seriously, I can't even believe this is a story anyone gives two f-s about.

It's the highest inflation in 40 years, back in a time when mortgage rates were @ 16%.

So, yeah, kind of a big deal [potentially].  If mortgage rates were to jump to even 8% (where they typically averaged historically), it would probably make the Great Recession look like a hiccup.

Sorry, I meant the story about Trump flushing documents, not the inflation - as far as a story no one cares about.

Is that the percentage of political points you make that are remotely accurate?

That's way too high for that.

What's Pete B going to do when the trucker freedom convoy rolls from LA to DC; this ought to be comical.

Pete was mayor of South Bend, Indiana for God's sake.  A drive through of that beautiful burg will assure you that there's no doubt  he can handle a a trucker convoy.

He couldn't handle the potholes in South Bend, but he can check a couple of boxes that REALLY make him qualified to be Sec of Transp.

Trump and the documents is a non story. But, it does have a very Sandy Berger vibe to it. I'm guessing Trunp wanted to keep some things and it was never told him or he ignored the policy.

If the truckers in any way screw up the Super Bowl, they will not have any support. That is dumb. 

State of the Union is in March and no one will care.

We are so fucking this up.

Yeah? The Ukraine. Do you know what the Ukraine is? It's a sitting duck. A road apple. The Ukraine is weak. It's feeble. I think it's time to put the hurt on the Ukraine

A large chunk of Ukrainians are Russian.  Combine that with a corrupt government and I think there’s a large chunk of their population that doesn’t GAF if the Russians come in.

Ehhh, I think it's pretty bad.  While I suspect it's almost impossible to actually scrub records, it's a deliberate attempt at evading oversight.  Impeachable offense, at minimum, if not an actual crime.

Well, one, a lot of the documents labeled top secret most likely aren't. Two, it seems a lot of the stuff seems to be mementos or items he seemed to value from his time as President. The letters from Noeth Korea, the map of the hurricane, little things like that. Seems like he was told hey, you shouldn't do that, but like he always does, ignored people. 

Is is it bad in the grand scheme of things he has done, not really. If he did in fact try and obstruct anything then ok. But, so far does not seem sinister. 

Trumps continuing speeches about how the election was rigged and he won are way worse as an example.

A large chunk of those Russians living in Ukraine are concentrated in areas of Ukraine that are currently not under the control of the Ukrainian government.  If anyone is looking for relief from a corrupt government, the Russians are the last ones to look to.

I’m sure that’s true.  Nothing involving Russia and Ukraine is probably what it seems.  That’s been the way of it there for centuries
