Blitz7x posted:I think the EPA is extremely valuable, I don't know why I'm getting jumped by saying it's heavily mismanaged and filled with incompetent people Most people aren't brought in or hired as managers because they're good managers. I suspect this is more of a problem in government than private sector but this issue certainly isn't just in the EPA. That said, my part of government functions pretty well though complaints about DC & managerial direction from there aren't uncommon.

The stretch through Highland Park is insanely slow due to the track being where kids play and kinda makes it unusable for me.

Lightning Lord posted:https://twitter.com/CNN/status/870745699503267842 Yeahhhh this is a concern. A lot of us (FEMA, NOAA, etc) have been without administrators but the mechanisms for response aren't really affected. My concern would be if something really big happens and significant resources are needed and no one in the White House is interested in listening to a Dep/Acting Admin when requests for support are made. (same goes for new initiatives and programs, but those wouldn't be as critical, anyway)

Kaal posted:Sadly, I agree. HRC would have been a wonderful president, but there were plenty of people who hated her after 30 years of knocking on the glass ceiling. The upside is by taking broadsides for her entire career, she made it much easier for the next woman to do it. There's a lot of people out there who absolutely hated her but who would love to deny that they are misogynists by supporting a different woman instead. gently caress off

Might be an ISIS-related attack? There's been a fair amount of domestic news/propaganda on finding plotters over the past few years. I doubt it's MEK/NCRI terrorists whose MO is more drive-by assassinations/bombings, but there's that precedent, too. (BTW both Gulliani, Howard Dean, and other US politicians have lobbied for NCRI.)

Whomever is attacking, I would fully expect Iranians, from basijis to north tehran socialites, to rally around the government especially after the last election. I also don't expect Khomenei to advise or order anything that ups the ante, unless it's Syria or MEK related. Rugoberta Munchu posted:Another attack at the Khomeini Mausoleum so it's looking more and more related to the Qatar/Hezbollah fallout. Not really Qatar. I'm sure Iran's keeping it's nose clean on that until dust settles, publicly.

Nelson Mandingo posted:A. Actively hurting the republican party and they need to throw him overboard to save themselves. It's likely never going to get that bad. The only real window would be If polls keep slipping consistently on his approve/disapprove without a clear floor and state polling shows strong for dems, R's might have to cut their losses early if the evidence is also damning. It'd have to be done quickly enough such that there's time to recover trust for 2018 races. So that's a lot of qualification.* If D's retake in 2018, even impeachment would do a lot to tarnish Trump. Think of Clinton on the stand and how much his word twisting is still brought up. With this being Trump and in his first term, it'd be far different than any faux pas during the 16 election. e: *R's will also need to wait with the investigations to see how much Pence is implicated in the nonsense.

Probably 20 pages late but people were asking about UK polling? Wrote this to someone on FB that might be useful here. "In short: Brexit polling was different as it was a referendum and polling UK elections is much more challenging than US. The Brexit referendum was based on national totals as opposed to Parliamentary elections which are for each district, after which the government can be made. I'm not a poller but I have a feeling that those doing it for media orgs are pretty limited in resources and aren't able to flush out decent models to normalize for segments & get enough statistics/responses. So national polling with ~2K folks will not do a reliable job in sampling to understand how districts will go. Any real district-national coupling is probably too weak to be meaningful. So to be clear, it's like using US national polls to predict the presidential election. Except there's a lot more districts than states so your combined uncertainty will be much, much higher. " If there's a some UK goon who wants to tell me I'm wrong, I'd love to be corrected!

I'm working as a part of a fed agency w/ FEMA on the response. One thing we're working on is on assessing oil leaks/spills FYI. It's the same people as have been for years past. Ultimately it's a mix of funding and local agency working with FEMA in how recovery ops go. Rebuilding, insurance, economic, and environmental impact - well, that's beyond the scope of the urgent response.

China, Russia and you better believe Europe all wanted to normalise relations and go for that sweet, sweet trade, oil especially and America had to apply a lot of pressure and burn a lot of prestige into getting them to sign up. This. There's been a lotta contracts starting to been written and signed between nations and US withdrawing isn't going to have any support as all other parties continue to meet obligations. The only downside to the US withdrawing with be for US foreign policy & businesses.
