http://www.zdnet.com/article/security-lapse-exposes-198-million-united-states-voter-records/quote:The various databases containing 198 million records on American voters from all political parties were found stored on an open Amazon S3 storage server owned by a Republican data analytics firm, Deep Root Analytics. So it seems Republicans were even better at Big Data than Hillary. Tood bad they're even worse at securing that info.

None of them took part in helping with the ACA beyond maybe some sabotage amendments. They're literally doing this w/o *any* help, from insurance or hospital or anything involved in what they're 'regulating'

quote:The data leak contains a wealth of personal information on roughly 61 percent of the US population. Along with home addresses, birthdates, and phone numbers, the records include advanced sentiment analyses used by political groups to predict where individual voters fall on hot-button issues such as gun ownership, stem cell research, and the right to abortion, as well as suspected religious affiliation and ethnicity. The data was amassed from a variety of sources—from the banned subreddit r/fatpeoplehate to American Crossroads, the super PAC co-founded by former White House strategist Karl Rove. hoyl poo poo

If the AHCA gets signed into law the democrats need to run in 2018 on a "give us a veto-proof super majority so we can unfuck your healthcare before it's too late."

None of the provisions will be in effect before the election and people will just think everything is fine. Almost 1/3 of the population currently thinks that Obamacare has already been repealed and replaced.

The sad part is that it isn't doomsaying to say millions of poor people will be killed by the bill long, long before dems even have a chance of fixing it.

Crain posted:I'll take "Idiots who don't know what impeachment means or who it applies to" for 800 Alex. It applies to civil officers which is basically defined as people who have been appointed. The FBI Director is a civil officer and could be impeached. Generally though impeachment has been used to get rid of people with lifetime appointments because you can just fire anyone else.

Oh, Fox News. I hate my work break room for having it on one of two TVs. They ran a brief piece about the guy who ran over some Muslims right after their service. The chyrons? "VAN ATTACK BEING INVESTIGATED AS TERRORISM" and something like "VAN ATTACK TARGETED PEOPLE LEAVING RELIGIOUS SERVICES" Kind of leaving out some pretty key info, IMHO.

theflyingorc posted:Address, birthday, and phone number quote:In all, the leaked files amount to more than 1,000 gigabytes of data — more than four times the size of any previous breach of this type, according to Vickery. The data fields included views on specific issues including abortion, gun rights and environmental issues, he said. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there that can use this data to target political and commercial ads. UpGuard has a whole detailed report on their website which is even more amazing. Stuff like: quote:In total, 1.1 terabytes of data in the warehouse—an amount roughly equivalent to 500 hours worth of video—was fully downloadable. Among these files were clear indications of the repository’s political importance, with file directories named for a number of high-powered and influential Republican political organizations. As such, the exposed Deep Root Analytics warehouse contained a remarkable amount of fully accessible data. Good thing public access wasn't switched on for the additional 24 TBs  https://www.upguard.com/breaches/the-rnc-files

Covok posted:It's impossible for dems to take the senate. Sure, in 2018. But really, given that the Republicans will control the White House until 2020 anyway, that's kind of a moot point. Getting the House means a divided Congress, so no new legislation. 2020 will be a different Senate map, and hopefully a Democratic White House. If we get unified control of government, we could pass another health care bill through reconciliation, and I bet that health care will be big issue for the 2020 campaign. I honestly doubt that pushing the Medicaid & Medicare cuts back will actually provide political cover. The outrage is going to happen. It's an extremely unpopular bill.

Interesting articlequote:"I don't want to sound like I'm suggesting anything," Parsons says, "but speaking as a historian, violent resistance was very effective. We've told ourselves a story about the Klan facing cowering victims, but people organized, fought, and defeated the Klan constantly." Black Americans in the Reconstruction South were often armed, not just as individuals but as communities, for collective self-defense. "There were places the Klan couldn't go," Parsons says, "people who, according to their code, they should have attacked, who they didn't." What I'm seeing is that the KKK, like Ted Nugent, didn't actually care enough to stand up for their beliefs in the face of actual consequences. So I guess it wasn't that important to them.

Dems win the house in 2018, they vote to impeach trump, the Senate has an impeachment trial, and republican senators are faced with an impossible dilemma going into the 2020 election--defend Radioactive Trump or stab MAGA in the back. That's a no win situation for them.

It would be nice if they could publish that data in a way that allows you to look up your own information (e.g. by confirming your email or phone). It would be cool to see what they figured out about me with sentiment analysis. The stuff about scraping /r/fatpeoplehate is interesting too. The explanation in the article, that they maybe were trying to analyze what appealed to Trump voters, seems kind of stupid since these aren't the people they needed to appeal to--they were already onboard the Trump train. Maybe I'm missing something though. A Louise Mensch-type explanation could be that they were trying to train their bots...
