Apparently Tillerson is having trouble keeping it together:Politico posted:Tillerson blows up at top White House aide

I really don't understand why Tillerson is still in that job. Clearly Trump doesn't care for him much, he's miserable in the job, and nobody tells him anything. Now he's basically below goddamn Jared Kushner, who has even less international policy experience than Tillerson does.

Because we're only 6 months in and he doesn't want to be the first cabinet member to quit? I guess "first cabinet member to quit" might change from a negative to a positive in his mind if he gets pissed off enough, though.

Owlofcreamcheese posted:But he has no control when that will happen. It doesn't mean his ticking was fake, it just means whatever he saw is still not public. It could even mean it's part of an investigation instead of a news story. Yeah. I don’t think we are disagreeing on anything. My only point was to say that he hasn’t posted the Boom link yet so whatever the tick was about hasn’t dropped yet. And possibly won’t ever I suppose.

It's an incredibly important and powerful position, maybe the most so next to the actual office of the president when it comes to foreign affairs. Or, it would be, if it wasn't under the Trump White House.

I wonder if they will actually just try and repeal without replace bill under reconciliation. It's genius in a way. They would be able to go "welp, democrats stopped us so, therefore, it's all their fault." That'd be enough to get the drooling masses slobbering on their 80 year old dicks. It's unfortunate we live in a nation of goldfish who proudly forget how badly their politcians just tried to gently caress them.

I mean a certain percentage will go with that, but I think you underestimate the chunk of Americans who just don't pay much attention but blame whoever is in power at the time.

A repeal without replace would lose every "moderate" Republican's support.

All employer insurance is just a hmo network of employees that collectively bargains on your behalf then takes the money to pay for it from your check before you get it, innit

In fun world news: the Petya ransomware attack from yesterday is looking more and more like it was a cyberweapon deployed to harvest credentials from and wipe as many computers in Ukraine as possible. The ransomware angle was just cover to keep the media busy - the worm just overwrites the master file table instead of encrypting it and the "installation ID" displayed supposedly to allow the device to de identified for decryption is literally just a randomly generated number. Another analysis if you don't trust Kaspersky Signs are also pointing to the initial distribution being performed via hijacking the automatic update function of an accounting program which is business are essentially required to use by the government of Ukraine. https://twitter.com/marasawr/status/879811881850064896 Rosneft was reportedly infected but somehow miraculously managed to stop the worm (which can easily infect tens of thousands of computers within minutes) by switching to "reserve" systems. Also anecdotally yesterday I noticed that MAGA-bot accounts on twitter were posting about how absurd blaming this on Russia is, despite there being essentially no blame being leveled at that moment. So yeah Russia just essentially looted and then neutron-bombed Ukraine's tax and accounting systems with a side effect of burning everyone involved economically in Ukraine. Or maybe it was some 400lb hacker in New Jersey.

A real American hero. https://twitter.com/orlandosentinel/status/880236901030080517 quote:In the video, the sky is dark and the Arkansas Capitol's dome is visible. Music is heard followed by a female voice, likely on the radio, saying, "Where do you go when you're faced with adversity and trials and challenges?" The driver is then heard growling, "Oh my goodness. Freedom!" before accelerating into the monument. The vehicle's speedometer is last shown at 21 mph (33 kph) and then a collision can be heard. This is the same guy who took out the Oklahoma state capitol's statue 3 years ago
