Light drizzle in the swamp this morning. Nothing so soothing as the sound of rain falling on a metal roof, not that it helps me sleep or anything. Still amazed and delighted by the video Cheryl posted of the lynx purring! I had no idea big cats purr! Anyone know if lions, tigers, etc., also purr?

WaPo has more details about the race to contain Trump’s latest immigration temper tantrum. Among the tidbits: Trump was pissed off that Nielsen was in Europe (on official business) while a “crisis” was underway at home (a “crisis” that Trump “oversaw” while waddling around self-branded golf resorts).
So, Nielsen cut short her trip and flew home, trying desperately to save her job by begging colleagues to help, only to get fired, allegedly at the White House by Trump himself. (Good — it’s only fitting that Trump’s enablers suffer the consequences of their prick boss’s cruelty and capriciousness to some degree.)
On Trump’s about-face on shutting down the southern border, the report says it was the US Chamber of Commerce, McConnell and Cornyn who drove the economic consequences of that move into Trump’s thick skull. Here’s an amazing quote from Cornyn:
Ya think? If there’s any justice, all of these assholes will suffer the same fate as Nielsen — burned publicly by the ignorant, malevolent sociopath whose ass they’ve spent the last three years kissing.

@Betty Cracker: My fear is that there are no consequences for them, because it is now apparent that it is okay if you are a republican.

I thought it would be perfectly apparent to anyone that Mnuchin telling the House Finance committee that he couldn’t stay past 5:15 for a hearing would be considered an affront but my house guest this week disabused me of this notion. He’s your average Dem from a blue state (Mass), an immigrant, someone devoted to his family and who has little sense of being a member of any other collective. He blurted out when he saw the video of Mnuchin and Maxine Waters, “They’re as bad as my grandchilden. They’re both so rude.” It was impossible to convince him that this wasn’t an issue of ‘both-sides,’ ‘throw the bums out,’ etc. It’s depressing to see that line sink in.
Kay
@rikyrah:
I don’t care if he has a million dollars. With the salary he made alone he could easily have a million dollars based on just some saving, compounded over a period of years. I would expect him to have a million dollars. I also think it’s perfectly consistent to have some money and also work for a fairer playing field. Millions of large and small D donors do it every day.
I just think he’s silly and weirdly vain to dodge the issue. The response about the book was dumb too. He makes high 100’s and he’s ancient. He has made a lot of money over 40 years.
