Althouse: "Many lawyers and top law firms want to represent me in the Russia case...don’t believe the Fake News narrative that it is hard to find a lawyer who wants to take this on."

২৫ মার্চ, ২০১৮

"Many lawyers and top law firms want to represent me in the Russia case...don’t believe the Fake News narrative that it is hard to find a lawyer who wants to take this on."

"Fame & fortune will NEVER be turned down by a lawyer, though some are conflicted. Problem is that a new...... ....lawyer or law firm will take months to get up to speed (if for no other reason than they can bill more), which is unfair to our great country - and I am very happy with my existing team. Besides, there was NO COLLUSION with Russia, except by Crooked Hillary and the Dems!"

Trump tweets this morning, here and here — as we're hearing the news (NYT) that Joe diGenova and Victoria Toensing will not be joining Trump's special counsel legal team.

That one sentence — "Fame & fortune will NEVER be turned down by a lawyer, though some are conflicted" — makes it sound as though he knows he needs to take a legal position that challenges the limits of professional ethics! How is that smart? Whether it's true or not, why say that? Lawyers are just a bunch of money-grubbing fame-seekers! Why say that when he's going to need us to credit his lawyers? Is there some secret "genius" reason? Like... he's really casting aspersions on the lawyers who are out to get him, Mueller and company?

ADDED: I guess Trump wrote "some are conflicted" because, according to Trump’s personal lawyer, Jay Sekulow, quoted at the NYT link, they had "conflicts" that "prevent" them from "joining the president’s special counsel legal team." But why did he write "some [lawyers] are conflicted" instead of something more like "some lawyers have conflicts" or, better "some lawyers have conflicts of interest." To my ear, the locution to be conflicted connotes a struggle within the individual, drawn in 2 directions by competing concerns — such as, on one side, a desire for fame and money and on the other side ethical objections. The way Trump wrote, it sounds as though lawyers are feeling ambivalent about working for him, not that they have clients or business interests that present a conflict of interest.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together বলেছেন...: The Iranian mullahs will be out of power by September, maybe much sooner, with no active participation by U.S. troops.

Totally delusional - the product of fantastically error-prone John Bolton "thinking." If you believe this let's bet on it - the quantity of "FullMoon's" $300k down payment? Or maybe just $20. Either way, as a teacher you're not too bright if you believe this. Yep. Iraq was a cakewalk, too. How many years did we have to stay there? How many trillions?

When that happens and I come back here and remind you, will you admit you know nothing and go away and never come back?

If that happens then pigs will fly. ANything's possible but you haven't proved how an obvious neocon Boltonite came to believe such a silly thing without any evidence. But seriously, reality for a second - you thought Iraq would be a cakewalk too, didn't you?

No loss in promising if it can't happen, is there?

Have you noticed the revolution in Saudi Arabia, which has been rapidly liberalizing and fighting terrorism in several countries under the new Crown Prince, who's been meeting with Trump in D.C.?

Not really. I mean, yeah he talks a good game and if change comes it would be slow but I did see that glowing orb that they all put their hands on and the sword dance but I'll believe that they're no longer spreading terrorist ideology when they stop teaching it in their schools and funding it in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. And if they have done that then it was probably at Israel's urging, anyway.

Pay attention, and you might learn something.

When you start providing facts and evidence, instead of rose-colored glass crystal ball predictions of exactly the same sort that went fantastically wrong 15 years ago, then I'll start paying attention.

And why don't you follow your own principles and move to Venezuela? You're the one who seems to hate living in Trump's U.S.A. where things are getting better and better for anyone with eyes to see.

Yawn. I suppose this is your vengeance for my pointing out that you're pumping up and primping a president who thinks that calling out Nazis as Nazis is too dangerous a thing to do without losing him crucial support.; ২৫/৩/১৮, ১১:১১ PM

Didn't twenty different commenters let it be known to you that you are an insufferable pile of shit that we're all mocking, ridiculing, and enjoying a delightful pleasure in reiterating what a tiresome ridiculous turd of an excuse for a human being you are?

Basics
General contractors earned a mean $45.14 per hour, or $93,900 per year, as of May 2011, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The lowest-paid 10 percent of contractors received less than $24.35 per hour, or $50,650 per year, while the best-paid 10 percent made $71.67 per hour, or $149,070 per year. Construction managers prepare budgets, work schedules and strategies for completing projects. They choose and hire subcontractors and laborers, supervise their activities onsite, and report to superiors on progress. They collaborate with engineers, architects and other construction professionals. They must ensure that all legal requirements and safety regulations are met.

LOL!

Maybe where you live. Your ignorance is not surprising. The fact that you continue to display it is baffling.

Dr Weevil বলেছেন...: Now I'm a Boltonite? Another stupid lie. I'm a Wictorian, like anyone who wants to know what's going on. Of course, the only way a monetary bet would work is if I gave you my real name and address, and that would be extremely foolish, dealing with a vicious asshole like you. I'll remind you when it happens, and suggest you bugger off to some other website, and you'll reply with your usual vicious insults, ignorant generalizations, and stupid lies. Yawn. A guy who hasn't noticed that Saudi teenage girls are going to soccer games unescorted (just for one example) doesn't have a clue about what's going on there. There's no ignorance like willful ignorance.; ২৫/৩/১৮, ১১:২৫ PM

Weevil admits that he has no way to show how he's not going to be proved wrong "by September," was it? Yeah, ok.

Why just leave it at bloodless Iranian Jeffersonian Democracy Revolution? Make it something really big. Huge. Like, Trump will reverse the earth's magnetic polarity. Maybe that'll happen, too. Trump reverses gravity.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together বলেছেন...: States
The states with the most populations, California and Texas, boasted the most job opportunities for general contractors in 2011. The latter had 13 percent of the jobs at a mean $39.09 per hour, or $81,310 per year, followed by the former, with 11 percent of the jobs at a mean $51.81 per hour, or $107,760 per year. As for states with the highest-paying employers, New York topped the list with averages at $61.62 per hour, or $128,170 per year, followed by New Jersey with mean wages of $60.48 per hour, or $125,790 per year.

Yep. I make more than that, too.

True! I plead guilty. My only hope is being made love to by you. I know your wife is just a cover-up. You crave and love me.

Hold me, please Moon. I dream of being made love to by a grimy contractor in denims and perma-stubble who cheats developers out of the work. It's seriously every woman - I mean, man's - dream.

Do you like your women a little hairy, too? Does the lady drop some hairs when you're doing the grouting and tile work?

You are so superior to those programmers. If only they would recognize it, right?

Indeed he is — if he’s human (rather than a cartoon character), American, male, not a child, and not yet beyond middle-aged.

As the legal code of the United States (Title 10 U.S. Code § 246 –- Militia: composition and classes) reads (quoting…):

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and […] under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.

(b) The classes of the militia are —
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
