The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 5363 - Politics and Economics

No, this is very wrong. While the Brits (and Israelis) may be really good at human intelligence, the fact that the CIA is a much larger organization and has tons more cash to spend gives them a huge advantage. Plus the USA is still way, way, ahead with the electronic and signals stuff, or the SIGINT and ELINT if you're an espionage nerd. Plus the Americans have assets all over the world whereas the Brits tend to focus more on Europe and other areas where they have direct interest.

It gets hot sure, but rarely above 100. Think the hottest I ever remember was maybe 104. Compared to the 120 they get regularly in places like Arizona and Texas I'd take that in a heart beat.

They're seriously afraid of people they've never met and will never meet.

It's incredible how easily we're molded into ridiculous things like that.

Right, but why wouldn't he do it again? Why would he do it the first time? Democrats should absolutely be clobbering Ryan with this (like he gives a ****) every time anyone tries to blame them.

There is a way to force a bill to the floor, isn't there? 67 votes?

Skepticism level maximum. That's the kind of thing that sounds plausible to people who have seen a lot of movies. "Hack in" implies that it's a computer file, in which case how come they only saw six seconds? Either they have read access to the file or they don't. This isn't a William Gibson story where they're jacked into the matrix and trying to dodge black ice.

Here's a potential scenario where the shutdown never ends:

800k federal workers are currently going without pay. Congress passes bills to only pay those workers but otherwise don't fund anything else.

In that scenario, neither side has any incentive to give in. It will be like that episode of Star Trek where the two planets are at war but all they do is have people walk into incineration booths so there is no real damage and no incentive to end it.
