Mornin' all..
So the minor leak that I have under my kitchen sink turned out to be the Scituate Reservoir. I spent all weekend mopping it up, cleaning out the mold & other shit that had taken residence under there, then washed the kitchen floor & half the wood flooring in the common room of my apartment.
The wash water from cleaning the floor leaked from the sink drain pipe (I think?), refilling the lake. I laid out another whole roll of paper towels to soak it up before I left for work.

Quote by TriSec:
You heard that former Secretary John Kerry has been working on "shadow diplomacy" with Iran? He's been in touch with his former contacts over there, trying to work a back-door deal so the nuclear agreement doesn't collapse entirely. Maybe this is the fruit?
Even Donald Trump Jr. was touting MMA, a sport John McCain once called “human cockfighting.†Trump Jr. told Men’s Fitness the Trump Organization was investing money in Affliction, not just providing name recognition. “We’re obviously a very cash-rich company,†he said. “So we can come into something to make sure it’s done appropriately. Depending on how everything goes, if we have to put in more, we’ll put in more.â€
What do you think are the biggest unanswered questions about your story?
I guess two things. One would be: Have I seen the whole universe? Are there other all-cash transactions out there that I haven’t found. And No. 2 is: What was their cash flow? Eric Trump has said that their existing properties were throwing off so much money that it wasn’t a big deal to dip into them to buy an $80 million golf course, in the case of Turnberry [in Scotland]. Nothing that I have seen from the outside indicates that they have that level of liquidity, but I haven’t seen very much from the outside. The next question is about the sources of their cash flow from this period, and where their cash was coming from. That would help us understand a little bit more the context around Eric’s explanation.

Oliver North has been chosen to be the next President of the NRA.
Quote by Scoopster:
Just heard that the NRA's board has chosen Oliver North to be its new President.
I guess now that's it's proven that they're a lobbying arm for traitors & foreign interests, you might as well have a figurehead that fits the same mold.
I want to find something snarky to say about Oliver North becoming head of the NRA, but I'm at a loss ... a guy who lied to Congress and actively tried to subvert the rule of law heading a group that calls itself a defender of Constitutional rights. What is there to say?

For months, a persistent rumor has floated around Washington that Melania doesn’t really live in the White House and stays in a house with her parents and Barron near his suburban Washington school.
“It’s 1,000 percent false. We laugh at it all the time,†Grisham said.
“It’s an urban legend,†said Rickie Niceta Lloyd, the White House social secretary.
Melania is exceedingly close to her parents and her son, Barron, who also speaks Slovenian with his grandparents. When she is out of the public eye, she is often with her family, friends say.
Her office declined to say where her parents live, or even whether they keep a room at the White House, as Michelle Obama’s mother did.

The whole Iran-Contra scandal was a giant shit on the Constitution. I wonder if Nixon was prosecuted instead of pardoned for Watergate, would we ever had gotten the criminal activity or even the administrations of Reagan, the two Bushes, and Trump.
I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same...

I'm sorry, what is this "Be Best" initiative thing? Were there any details from Melania or just a photo op for the angry orange?
Fun fact: The White House trumpets “Talking with Kids about Being Online" as "a booklet by First Lady Melania Trump and the Federal Trade Commission." Except for an intro, it's exactly the same thing Obama's FTC put out. pic.twitter.com/AEf6F0gBbt
