What do you think?
fun hypothetical (my best guess would be all of the above) but he's never releasing those taxes.

The case involving the flagpole at Trump’s oceanfront Mar-a-Lago Club began in 2006, when the club put up a giant American flag on the 80-foot pole. Town rules said flagpoles should be 42 feet high at most. Trump’s contention, according to news reports, was: “You don’t need a permit to put up the American flag.”

The town began to fine Trump, $1,250 a day.

Trump’s club sued in federal court, saying that a smaller flag “would fail to appropriately express the magnitude of Donald J. Trump’s . . . patriotism.”
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAS

In the other case in which a Trump Foundation payment seemed to help settle a legal dispute, the trouble began with a hole-in-one.

In 2010, a man named Martin Greenberg hit a hole-in-one on the 13th hole while playing in a charity tournament at Trump’s course in Westchester County, N.Y.

Greenberg won a $1 million prize. Briefly.

Later, Greenberg was told that he had won nothing. The prize’s rules required that the shot had to go 150 yards. But Trump’s course had allegedly made the hole too short.
Remarkable

Here's the post under the header "Remove or replace to/from address on archived emails?"

Hello all- I may be facing a very interesting situation where I need to strip out a VIP's (VERY VIP) email address from a bunch of archived email that I have both in a live Exchange mailbox, as well as a PST file. Basically, they don't want the VIP's email address exposed to anyone, and want to be able to either strip out or replace the email address in the to/from fields in all of the emails we want to send out.
I am not sure if something like this is possible with PowerShell, or exporting all of the emails to MSG and doing find/replaces with a batch processing program of some sort.
Does anyone have experience with something like this, and/or suggestions on how this might be accomplished?
I suppose the implication is he was *really* trying to figure out how to run a find/replace with "if you want me to act, you're going to need to donate to my foundation"?

But seriously, what are you guys seeing here other than a desire to keep an email address secret enough to remain usable?

Schu's "Some other people on reddit were wrong once so I'm going to go ahead and ignore this" and SRM's "LOL REDDIT" posts are really the nut low ways to respond to this. It makes you look like you're going to try and willfully disregard anything bad that comes out about Clinton as long as she's running against Trump.

After two minutes reading I don't know if this is story worthy or not but dismissing it out of hand because reddit's involved is some level 1 homerism ****.

The FBI already knew what Hillary's email address was so redacting it in no way, shape or form hid information. Btw, where do you and Donald Trump hangout to discuss your conspiracy theories? Is it like a weekly thing or just monthly?

AFAIK smtp doesn't let you obfuscate your email address so the notion that Hilary was going to send out emails without the recipients knowing her email address is nonsensical.

The way I am reading it is that they wanted to be able to turn over the entire collection of email addresses with something like "Hillary Clinton" as the name instead of "hillary@clintonemail.com".

They probably assumed there may be a leak of the information they are turning over, and given Hillary's general aptitude for technology, changing her email address was probably something they REALLY didn't want to have to do.

Seems more like "We're going to give them my emails. Can you stop them from publishing my email address?"

I.e. literally nothing at all. Lol, "timeline". Wouldn't you be more upset if the sequence was reversed?

The only reasonable gotcha to be had in the newest HRC e-mail thing is:

lol at the clown-show SECURE DATA practices of the Secretary of State's tech team, which posted a help request while bragging about the "VERY VIP" fame of the person in question, at a time when the "VERY VIP" person in question was subject to a clown-show investigation

The problem is not that it's a cover-up. Larry handled that.

The problem is, as ever, optics. How dumb - flat out dumb - do you look when your tech team, which is supposed to be an ace highest security team, with you simultaneously under investigation, publicly posts to Reddit about changing data (even if it's for a perfectly good reason) relevant to the investigation?

You look so, so dumb. You look even more like e-mail is really hard for you and your crack staff of wonks that no one trusts anyway. It looks, for all the world, like you and your team are simply bad at e-mail and, by extension, basically bad at standard life.

Congrats to HRC for not being ETHICALLY in the wrong on this one. Too bad she still looks like a joke.

EDIT: and just lol at the servile fanboy tone of the VERY VIP brag, c'monson

And yes I know Donald Trump is categorically worse at technology. But no one cares. I don't make the rules, that's just how this election works. It's not even relevant to this critique that the same complaints can be made about him. So what? His voters don't care, it's endearing. Potential HRC voters, though, judge her harshly. That's her bed to sleep in, whether fair or not.

lol Liz Warren just tearing the Wells Fargo CEO a new arse

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...eo-john-stumpf
Quote:
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren—a long-time advocate for more stringent regulation of Wall Street—tore into Stumpf, describing the unauthorized accounts as a "massive, years-long scam." She asked Stumpf what he has done to take responsibility for his bank's actions. "You have said repeatedly 'I am accountable,'" she said. "But what have you done to actually hold yourself accountable? Have you resigned?"

Stumpf avoided answering the question directly, prompting Warren to repeat her question, her voice rising, at least three times. Finally, an exasperated Warren said, "I'll take that as a 'no.'"

Warren proceeded to pummel Stumpf with more questions. "Have you returned one nickel of the money you earned while this scam was going on?" she asked. Stumpf, stumbling, said the unauthorized accounts weren't a scam and answered the question directly only after Warren repeated the question. "No," Stumpf said. Stumpf said earlier in the hearing that he earned $19.3 million last year.

She then asked if he'd fired any members of his senior management. Stumpf initially began by describing the firing of regional branch managers, but Warren stopped him, emphasizing that her question was not about low-level leadership but about the people at the top. Again, Stumpf's answer was no.

When Warren asked Stumpf if he knew how much the value of his bank's stock had gone up over the time that the unauthorized accounts were created and maintained, Stumpf replied the information was in the public record. "You're right, it is all in the public records," Warren said, "because I looked it up." She continued: "While this scam was going on, you personally held an average of 6.75 million shares of Wells stock." The share price went up by about $30 in that time frame, Warren pointed out, "which comes out to more than $200 million in gains, all for you personally."
