It's called "plausible deniability". I wonder how much longer the Riders' board of directors can let this farce go on. Funny enough, firing Jones for cause would probably improve things in Pile O' Bones. Jim Barker, anyone? -
Yup. Getting a sack every now and again is great, but the D-lineman has to be involved in every play, at least gumming things up rather than being a speed bump 9 of 10 plays.

Cummings was supposed to be a force up the middle of the D-line but for one reason or another, wasn't. His contribution can be easily replaced. The same goes for our tag-team Import defensive ends, -
And Trump has said he would consider publishing the names of every undocumented alien who commits a crime. Why not- it worked for Hitler scapegoating the Jews.

About two weeks before Trump was sworn into office, a bipartisan committee met for a CIA briefing regarding Trump and Putin/Russia involvement in the election and possible influence over Trump's presidency. The meeting was "sub rosa" and all the attendees had to swear to keep secret the content. One Democratic congressman came out and said that he could not discuss the infromation but he was "shaken" and wanted an investigation but was voted down by the Republican members of the committee.

This may have been the funniest, most biting, most accurate skit on SNL for years.

Robert Reich Has a Chilling Theory About Those Berkeley Protesters "I saw these people. They all looked almost paramilitary. They were not from the campus." By Alexandra Rosenmann / AlterNet February 3, 2017 18.5K390 Print 911 COMMENTS Photo Credit: CNN/YouTube In the wake of a University of California Berkeley protest that saw demonstrators burn campus lights and a sign for Breitbart News editor Milo Yiannopoulos in effigy, Donald Trump has threatened to cut federal funding from public colleges infringing on free speech. But at least one Berkeley professor believes the so-called alt-right may have instigated the violence. "I was there for part of last night and I know what I saw. Those people were not Berkeley students," former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich told CNN's Don Lemon, reiterating the statement issued by the university regarding the incident. "Those people were outsiders, agitators. I’ve never seen them before. There’s rumors that they actually were right-wingers. They were a part of a group that were organized and ready to create the kind of tumult and danger you saw that forced the police to cancel the event." Turning to Trump's remarks, Reich highlighted Berkeley's history as the "home of free speech." "Donald Trump, when he says Berkeley doesn’t respect free speech rights, that’s a complete distortion of the truth. I mean, Berkeley opened its biggest auditorium to this right-wing Breitbart News character, this hateful, odious person. They said, ‘Free speech is the most important thing we stand for,’ and it was these outsiders who caused the police to finally come in and have to cancel it," Reich pointed out. “You think it’s a strategy by Yiannopoulos, or right-wingers?" asked Lemon. "They put this on in an effort to show there’s no free speech on a college campus like UC Berkeley?” “I wouldn’t bet against it, Don," Reich told him. "Again, I saw these people. They all looked almost paramilitary. They were not from the campus. And I’ve heard — again, I don’t want to say factually, but I’ve heard there was some relationship here between these people and the right wing and the right-wing movement that is affiliated with Breitbart News."

America is now in a truly dark place, but did not get there overnight. Racism has been a part of the creation of America and a continuing theme over the generations, never really gone. About a hundred years ago, the "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce predicted that America would likely come to a second civil war, based on race and economic inequality with geological upheavals following.

OTTAWA — A new online video shows Conservative leadership candidate Kevin O'Leary firing automatic weapons, including a machine gun, during a visit to a gun range — a move one Liberal cabinet minister calls "dumb" and "insensitive." Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale takes issue with the timing of the video, which emerged the same day as funeral services for three of the six victims of last weekend's mosque shooting in Quebec City. The short clip, posted on the video sharing service Vimeo, shows O'Leary blazing away at paper targets with a number of firearms, including what looks like a heavy-calibre sniper rifle. A screengrab of the post O'Leary shared on Facebook and eventually deleted. (Photo: Kevin O'Leary/Facebook) O'Leary is a businessman and star of the U.S. reality-TV show "Shark Tank" who has declared his candidacy for the leadership of the federal Conservative party. He has said his business savvy will help turn around the economy and create jobs. In Quebec City today, several thousand mourners including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau paid their respects to shooting victims Abdelkrim Hassane, Khaled Belkacemi and Aboubaker Thabti. There were also prayers at the service for the three other victims — Azzeddine Soufiane, Mamadou Tanou Barry and Ibrahima Barry. "I don't comment on the strange and bizarre behaviour of Conservative leadership candidates," said Goodale, who then characterized O'Leary's timing as "obviously crass, insensitive and exceedingly dumb."

The betting is that he will be deposed as incompetent within a year, and by his own party. The afterglow of sweeping both houses and the presidency is fading rapidly and the hangover has begun.

The United States and China will fight a war within the next 10 years over islands in the South China Sea, and “there’s no doubt about that.” At the same time, the US will be in another “major” war in the Middle East. Those are the views – nine months ago at least – of one of the most powerful men in Donald Trump’s administration, Steve Bannon, the former head of far-right news website Breitbart who is now chief strategist at the White House. In the first weeks of Trump’s presidency, Bannon has emerged as a central figure. He was appointed to the “principals committee” of the National Security Council in a highly unusual move and was influential in the recent travel ban on citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries, overruling Department of Homeland Security officials who felt the order did not apply to green card holders. While many in Trump’s team are outspoken critics of China, in radio shows Bannon hosted for Breitbart he makes plain the two largest threats to America: China and Islam. “We’re going to war in the South China Sea in five to 10 years,” he said in March 2016. “There’s no doubt about that. They’re taking their sandbars and making basically stationary aircraft carriers and putting missiles on those. They come here to the United States in front of our face – and you understand how important face is – and say it’s an ancient territorial sea.”

Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch founded and led a student club called “Fascism Forever,” while attending a private prep school in suburban Washington in the 1980s. The yearbook of Georgetown Prep described the club as an anti-faculty student group that battled against the “liberal” views of the school administration, according to the UK Daily Mail. “In political circles, our tireless President Gorsuch’s ‘Fascism Forever Club’ happily jerked its knees against the increasingly ‘left-wing’ tendencies of the faculty,” said the yearbook. Gorsuch led the club all four years he attended the elite all-boys Jesuit school in Bethesda, Maryland. Gorsuch’s willingness to flaunt anti-democratic ideas in service of his conservative politics continued through his four years at Columbia University in New York City where he founded a chapter of the Federal Society, the conservative law network. His senior photo was accompanied by a “joke” from Henry Kissinger: “The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer

If you cannot accept the rebuttal of your statement above, there is nothing I can do about that.

Mumtaz was one lawyer who promoted the concept that, in his words, any Sharia law would be watered-down and apply only to Muslims who chose to have internal disputes arbitrated according to Sharia law, and where there was a conflict between Sharia law and Canadian law, Canadian law would prevail. This false interpretation of Mumtaz' position has been repeatedly used by bigots to wrongly portray that there was a sizeable portion of Candian Muslims who were seeking to have Sharia law imposed on Canadians. Mumtaz was never in any position of authority, and besides, he has been dead for some 8 years now, so his influence is pretty limited at the moment.

No one with any credibility or authority. There are the nuts who want the laws in the US and Canada to be reflective of Biblical law to the exclusion of all other considerations, but these have a lot more influence than any Muslim. Steve Bannon, for example, Trump's appointment to the National Security Council has in the past called for a Christian Holy War on Islam.

I would like to address the violent behaviour of some who appeared at the anti-Trump gatherings. There are those among who will seize on any gathering to break things and hurt people but who have no committment to whatever cause is being promoted. These are criminals, plain and simple who usually get liquored up, don masks and use the anonymity of the crowd to commit crimes. It has also been credibly reported that those opposed to the gathering will send agitators into that crowd to foment violence and thus discredit the cause. Police has been known to do this as well.
