NAC question:

So bond yields have come down since the 80's. But when I look at a chart of NAC its been averaging 14-15. It was there in 2000. How come it doesn't have a continuous slow up curve as yields have a slow down curve?

FP says

conclusions of experts

for the right price, i can make any data look any way the buyer wants it to.

the U.S. Government spent more than $32.5 billion on climate studies between 1989 and 2009. This doesn't count about $79 billion more spent for related climate change technology research, foreign aid and tax breaks for "green energy."

also, that guy and his wife who made $1M in 2014 alone.

Hater says

Ima anonymous troll called hater. What are your credentials?

I have a proven ability to recognize idiots, regardless of whether they are anonymous or not.

Hater says

And you have proven that you do not want to debate the facts.

You are not in a position to debate climate change.

Now, if you wish to debate the reasons for the recent poor results of Liverpool FC, I am ready.

WHY DO YOU HATE GREATNESS???

"And now this, straight from the Rubber Room of the White House......"

MAGA!FOUR YEARS OF WINNING!

Is painting the White House orange an impeachable offense?

Trump's POTUS POINTS PLAN™ says after I've bought a case of toxic dyed Oval Office Pumps®, a King and Queen set of tariff-free Bangladeshi White House Sheets®, and a Camp David Welcome Mat® woven by blind child sex-slaves, I'll have reached the Trump Tower Gold Toilet awards level. I get to redeem my points and ass fuck Ivanka on Air Force One while watching Trump's personal porn collection of Ironman and TLLips cum swapping at a Klan gathering. That's when I'll start to get sick of all the winning.

The whole nation will be sick of winning with Trunt®, the new roll out of Trump-Cunt branding.

The 9th circus court of appeals is the most overturned court in captivity.

Hater says

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance try to baffle them with bullshit.

Hey, by this time, OBAMA HAD A NOBEL PRIZE!

We can reduce reliance on airplanes with high speed railways.

Hydrogen can probably be used for jet fuel.

Also, a lot of the travel is business-related. It can be reduced due to video-conferencing.

thepaine says

Hey, by this time, OBAMA HAD A NOBEL PRIZE!

They said it wasn't for what he'd already done, but for what his Presidency would do for world and racial peace! Eight years and 4500 drone strikes later, racial tensions are at a fifty year high.

Those Norse really fucked that one up!

Ironman says

He'd been let out on $250,000 unsecured bond the day before his death

😧

Ironman says

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals is now independently, on its own impetus, requesting an internal vote on a full panel en banc hearing to review its own decision.

En banc determinations happen in every court of appeals. Federal Rules of Appeals title VII rule 35. https://www.law.cornell.edu/rules/frap/rule_35

You are surprised by it only because you know zero about government, laws, and the judiciary system.

How much of this stupid gun pointing at police, resulting in your untimely death, is a reflexive reaction ingrained by the local environment?
If you live in a virtual war zone you learn to react quickly to people pointing weapons at you over and over.
Then one day it happens to be a cop, and you react before you consciously analyze your situation and the odds of you surviving this encounter by not reacting.

This was caused by trump putting the court on the hook for future terrorist attacks committed by immigrant/refugees.
No way they would have asked for this otherwise. The chronology of events confirms this.
IOW's, another win for Trump!

Rule 35. En Banc Determination
(a) When Hearing or Rehearing En Banc May Be Ordered. A majority of the circuit judges who are in regular active service and who are not disqualified may order that an appeal or other proceeding be heard or reheard by the court of appeals en banc. An en banc hearing or rehearing is not favored and ordinarily will not be ordered unless:

(1) en banc consideration is necessary to secure or maintain uniformity of the court's decisions; or
(2) the proceeding involves a question of exceptional importance.?

Sure, whatever you say dude. Overturning a presidential executive order certainly is a question of minor importance.

Ironman says

Why else would you fucking Libbies be in favor of sanctuary cities?

If the only crime is crossing border, that's one thing but if it is committing felonies such as those described in article, that's different.

Most of the people who want to prosecute small business owners probably do not actually know first thing about running a business.

most of time I'd take Mexican over lazy, entitled, usually low-class bricktuckian

Ironman says

Only about 80% of the time, but Dickhead Bobby is our resident "expert" on everything government.

Everyone on the planet is an expert on government compared to you. But it's ok, ignorance it bliss and you are maximum blissed out.

Heres Your Card says

Trump's POTUS POINTS PLANâ„¢

Is this like MAGA! Club premium points? Can I belong to both?

It's very similar in structure, and is cross marketed. MAGA is creatively linked to the prison system now owned and run by Jared Kushner. MAGA members should already enjoy being fucked in the ass and being incarcerated. Since you are probably currently on some work-release or parole arrangement and have a prior history of prison sex you would be an optimal candidate for membership in the plan.

Did you figure out what "another" means yet Ironman?

Congrats-who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Ironman is SOOOOO HAPPY that FINALLY one video-taped police shooting appears to be justified. He can barely contain his glee, and is immediately trying to conflate this one shooting with the all the videos showing clearly unjustified shootings in the last several years.

Oh, the irony of Ironman talking about fake news killing people's minds. Does Ironman still have a mind to waste?

There's two parties why wouldn't one consider the other "Fake News".
I guess we're past the good ole "Fox is Partisan" days.

And what exactly is "quality journalism"? The editorial perspective that serves the journalist's master?

Obama's books make good kindling and toilet paper. Most of them are sitting in one of Soros' warehouses where he stores them after buying them off the shelves. You can buy them by the long ton for 2 dollars a ton, now.

Book Deal: the modern age laundered political bribe.

Ironman says

"It is because I say it is", the world according to Bullshit Bobby....

Ohhh boy watch out, ironman is all butthurt because his god donny boy pulled this clusterfuck out of bannon's ass (ironman being the world's most pre imminent authority on pulling things out of and sticking things into asses) and got a slapdown by the courts. Next time your caregiver changes your diaper have them put some salve on it. You will feel much better.

I am so awed by your intimidation that after dinner I'll yawn, maybe.

When the President acts pursuant to an express or implied authorization of Congress, his authority is at its maximum, for it includes all that he possesses in his own right plus all that Congress can delegate. In these circumstances, and in these only, may he be said (for what it may be worth) to personify the federal sovereignty. If his act is held unconstitutional under these circumstances, it usually means that the Federal Government as an undivided whole lacks power. A seizure executed by the President pursuant to an Act of Congress would be supported by the strongest of presumptions and the widest latitude of judicial interpretation, and the burden of persuasion would rest heavily upon any who might attack it.

And yet the 9th did not look at any evidence or require Washington State to meet a high standard.

Instead, it imposed an insurmountable burden on the Executive empowered by delegated powers from Congress.

As I've said, this is going to come down to Federal Powers, because it's not just the Executive but Congress who delegated their immigration authority to him. It's really the judiciary deciding what powers the ENTIRE US Government has, and whether they should be second guessing the other TWO branches on Foreign and Immigration Affairs.

bob2356 says

Sure, whatever you say dude. Overturning a presidential executive order certainly is a question of minor importance.

When was it overturned? They allowed the TRO to continue. They did not hold Washington State to a very high standard, nor did they explain why importing cheap contract Professors and full tuition paying foreign (rich, not average or pool) students for the State University system outweighs the President's Congress-granted explicit powers on National Security.

A little late with this. We already knew it.

Ceffer says

And what exactly is "quality journalism"?

Building an entire article to defame a politician or policy you don't agree with, based on a high ranking anonymous source.

30 years ago, an Editor would have laughed a journalist out of the office for presenting an article lacking in anything but a single anonymous source.

Today they say "Bring me the head of Open Borders opponents. Find an anonymous source to 'back up' the claim."

Wikipedia itself is an unreliable source.

"What do you call it when the unreliable calls the unreliable, 'unreliable'? It's my dream... it's my nightmare... snail... slithering along an edge."
