Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Everybody saw this coming.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Took Lily for her chemo today:

She did well, and I will have numbers and updates later on. Right now we need a nap.

All the nurses and everyone gushed over how adorable she is, and I honestly can’t tell if they have a special thing for her or say that about all the dogs and I am just thinking the stripper I am throwing hundreds at really likes me.

    My family are dog and cat people from the start. Since adulthood reared its ugly head, I personally have “owned” (pet ownership being a legal fiction we use to assign liability for the damage) six cats now over the years and I can tell you that the vets unerringly spotted the ones who were truly special–special, special, not just “special to me,” as, of course, they all were.

    And if they can tell that with cats in the one situation calculated to out the worst in them, you know they can sure as hell tell with the dogs.

    @Quinerly: @PsiFighter37:
    Make of this what you will.

    The Daily Beast can confirm that Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen received hundreds of thousands of dollars from a company controlled by Putin-aligned Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg.

    The allegations were initially made Tuesday by Michael Avenatti, porn actress Stormy Daniels’ lawyer, and confirmed by a source familiar with the matter.

    “How the fuck did Avenatti find out?” the source asked The Daily Beast.

    According to a dossier published by Avenatti on Tuesday evening, “Vekselberg and his cousin Mr. Andrew Intrater routed eight payments to Mr. Cohen through a company named Columbus Nova LLC beginning in January 2017 and continuing until at least August 2017.”

    The funds, Avenatti suggested, may have been used to reimburse Cohen for the $130,000 hush payment made to Daniels in exchange for her silence about an alleged affair with Trump.

    “How the fuck” indeed.

    Vets, Vet Techs and Staff see hundreds of different dogs a week, each with a different attitude about the visit, different quirks and personalities.

    They know which ones they like, and show it.

    When Casey had her first TPLO Surgury, the VetTech’s quickly learned that she had to be allowed to check in on any distressed patients, ( vocalizing) and comfort them, before they could crate her. When she came in for her second TPLO, they remembered her name, ( not mine), had a welcoming committee, and had set up a bed for her surrounded by their current crop of “distressed” patients.

    It may be that stuff is starting to come out. ATT was forced to admit in court that it paid Michael Cohen for ‘consulting’ on the merger through end of 2017..

    BREAKING: @ATT confirms payments to Cohen LLC >>

    @christinawilkie
    Full Stmt: “Essential Consulting was one of several firms we engaged in early 2017 to provide insights into understanding the new administration. They did no legal or lobbying work for us, and the contract ended in December 2017”
    https://twitter.com/christinawilkie/status/993983493033086977

    tweet found via Josh Marshall’s twiter. Anyway, probably not a coincidence Avenatti announced on same day another sketchy payment came out at trial. Avenatti seems good at strategery.

    The Senate released their first report on the election tampering by Russia. I think this is important because we know that provisional ballots are often discarded

    In at least six states, the Russian-affiliated cyber actors went beyond scanning and conducted malicious access attempts on voting-related websites.2 In a small number of states, Russian-affiliated cyber actors were able to gain access to restricted elements of election infrastructure. In a small number of states, these cyber actors were in a position to, at a minimum, alter or delete voter registration data; however, they did not appear to be in a position to manipulate individual votes or aggregate vote totals.

    It doesn’t name the states. https://www.burr.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/RussRptInstlmt1-%20ElecSec%20Findings,Recs2.pdf

I’m involved with That Newfoundland Place in Coventry CT–They rescue Newfies and a few others from New England, mainly, and a few doggos from upstate NY. There is also breed rescue via NCA (Newfoundland Club of America)–again, in New England it’s NCNA, but regional breed clubs abound and they typically have, or link to, rescues.

    Just for God’ sake DO NOT buy a dog from a (Missouri, Upstate, Indiana…all over) puppy mill! I fostered a mamma dog from a backyard mill, and in all my years of foster & rescue I have never seen such horrific trauma. Just say no! They are monsters.

    Good luck, learn about the breed! meet a few…or more…before you decide they are the dog for you. Imagine TaMara’s gorgeous Danes, but with giant fur coats, and an irrepressible desire to swim and mess in puddles. Then they climb in your lab and drool on you. It’s love, of course.

    @Tilda Swintons Bald Cap: Avenatti has been saying for weeks that at least six other people who signed Trumpster NDAs have contacted him. During the media shows it has been assumed these are all women who where paid to shut up about sexcapades with Trump. But, those NDAs could be for other reasons too.

    And Avenatti seems to have a very diligent and alert staff. He says his office dug through the material Daniel’s previous attorney sent and tracked down documentation of communications showing Cohen and/or Trump were anxious to get the NDA done because of the election. I doubt the previous attorney meant to send anything about that. So, who knows, could be anything that he found.

NB: It’s not just the hair, although that does clog the spinning brush annoyingly…. it’s all the leaves, grass and crud they carry in. I call my dogs “reverse vacuum cleaners” for that reason.

    (When I got Murphy, the mostly Pyr) I got a Hoover upright with a swanky silicone brush type thing that is supposed to be self-cleaning–less expensive, but heavy as all get out. Relatively easy to use (i.e., empty the canister) though.

    As for drool, not so much the problem indoors– the drool comes when they run around and get hot or excited and etc. No, it’s that a lot of them (all) step in the water dish, drink from the toilet (slurp)–no blue stuff in the tank!!, and go for any source of water they can get to. When outside they will eagerly step in, possibly roll in, puddles big and small, and as for a spring brook, summer pond, or seaside, just forget it, you’re done. Get used to keeping large piles of old towels next to the door. And in your car. (If you haven’t saved them, you can do pretty well at a thrift store. Also a god source of stainless bowls, parted from their mixers, make good feeding/water bowls…since you’ll be washing them all the time. :) Oh, and your car will smell like wet dog, if you take them swimming, which you should do for their health!

    Newfies aren’t just dogs–they’re lifestyle choices! wonderful ones, but not for the OCD clean folk among us.

    @JPL:

    Somehow he received documents detailing who was giving Cohen money.

    Maybe the intelligence community in Europe is starting to leak, now that it does not have to involve state secrets.

    @MoxieM: I have the Dyson Animal as well and it has been great. I do spend a lot of time cutting golden retriever fur off the spinning brush, though.

    As every thread is an open thread, I’m going to give all y’all who are on the edge of their seats waiting for a wound update what they want. I went to the wound care clinic today and was poked, prodded, photographed, and generally examined. The doctor there said it is possible the wound didn’t properly granulate and that’s why it won’t close and sent me how with some stuff called Iodosorb to apply to it once a day. He is also getting my pathology and operative reports from the hospital that did my surgery to see if the initial diagnosis was right. I have an appointment in two weeks to check on things. If the Iodosorb doesn’t work, he said he might have to cut out the area that didn’t heal properly and let it try again.

    In short, I have another poultice and another date for the thing to close by. We’ll see how it goes.

    The parents of a friend in university had 5 Newfoundlands – they practically destroyed what was otherwise a beautiful house in a gorgeous area of Vancouver
