New York Times Busted

.

New York Times Will Vacate 8 Floors In Its HQ To Generate "Significant Rental Revenue" Furthermore, the NYT publisher and CEO will lose their corner offices, which they call a "vestige from a different era" and will "introduce more team rooms and common spaces." New Digs Remember when The NYT reported that its ad hoc campaign to boost revenue by selling subscriptions in response to the vicious back and forth with Donald Trump, was said to be a smashing success? Perhaps it was subscriptions for the crossword puzzle because it appears the monetary success was not smashing enough, and according to a just released note from executives Arthur Sulzberger and Mark Thompson, the newspaper will vacate at least eight floors in its iconic building, allowing it to "generate significant rental income" because it is "frankly, too expensive to occupy this many floors when we don’t truly need them." Maybe the lesson here is that when the newspaper business model no longer works, one can just pivot into a REIT? The remaining staff will be consolidated on the remaining, redesigned floors in a "more dynamic, modern and open workplace, one that is better suited to the moment." Furthermore, the NYT publisher and CEO will lose their corner offices, which they call a "vestige from a different era" and will "introduce more team rooms and common spaces." Thank you Thank you Thanks you.  Next Big Name reag to fail?  I say the WaPost.

A MAN AND A  MULE dead-mule.jpg While hiking the Appalachian Trail, Jim's foot dislodged some loose shale, sending him ass over tin-cups into a rocky gorge 75 feet below.  SPLAT! It took several minutes for Jim to realize that he had, somehow, survived a certain death!  Then, the mighty stench kicked in.  He saw a mule's rotting head, with empty, maggot eaten eye sockets staring blankly. Whoa! He had quite miraculously landed atop the bloated corpse of this mule—that  had similarly fallen just days before.  It exploded under his mass, sending gases and offal spewing everywhere,  but cushioning his fall.  Gagging from the stink, and horrified by this specter, Jim (a fastidious man) suffered a massive heart attack and died on the spot.

Kamala Harris tries to burn ‘science deniers’

Global Warming Fade-Out

Senator-elect Kamala Harris tries to burn ‘science deniers’ by torching a MONSTER straw man California Attorney General and soon-to-be U.S. Senator Kamala Harris is entering national politics leaving no doubt where she stands on “climate change” and those who disagree: however .... ASIDE: Andrew Zimmern's Bizarre Foods is a favorite.  Recently he was in Romania, or some such, where villagers were slaughtering hogs for a traditional communal pig roast.  The head dude said they were worried because the EU were about to ban this sort of "home cooking," in favor of licensed controlled operations.  That's what came to mind just now with this story about Kamala Harris.  The gold ring for one worlders (supports or believes in any of various movements to establish a world government or a federation of nations stronger than any individual nation, for the purpose of promoting the common good.) is climate law.  Because under it's aegis a government  agency can control every aspect of  human endeavor.  Can trump legislation.  Can tax or ban anything that produces heat. Today's Democrat Party are all-in one worlders. And they were soooooo close to subjecting the United States to various "treaties" that would, in effect, give the UN dominion over our economy.  Trumps election then was like losing a  winning mega-buck lottery ticket. Oh.  There's this ... Trump Picks Scott Pruitt, Climate Change Denialist, to Lead EPA

Less Than Transparent: Journalists Fault Obama SHARYL ATTKISSON When President Obama took office, he gave journalists great hope by promising unprecedented transparency. The reality has proven to be eight years of slippage in nearly every facet of openness. As the president prepares to leave office, the Society of Professional Journalists have noted the disappointing shortfalls. Forty journalism and open-government groups sent a letter to White House press secretary Josh Earnest* in September after he called for journalists to give the president credit for improvements in government transparency. The Society of Professional Journalists and other groups have “repeatedly outlined to the administration various ways in which transparency has gotten worse” including: Officials’ blocking reporters’ requests to talk to specific people Excessive delays in answering interview requests, stretching past reporters’ deadlines Refusing to give reporters what should be public information unless they agree not to say who’s speaking Federal agencies’ blackballing of reporters who write critically of them Lack of meaning visual access to the pressmen try an independent press pool SHARYL ATTKISSON ASIDE : The SBJ membership base is more than 9,000 members of the media.

'SHUT DOWN' TRUMP'S INAUGURATION

Beating Dead Horses Because They Aren't Really Dead should be, but they ain't

PLOT GROWS TO 'SHUT DOWN' TRUMP'S INAUGURATION Plan would force president-elect to take oath of office 'behind closed doors,' if 'at all' Big-talking bogeymen behind #DisruptJ20 and their de facto leader Michael Moore are not your garden variety activists on the move. They are the LGBTQ movement trying to advance the cause of Lesbians, Gays and Transgenders now boasting to stop the inauguration of President Elect Donald Trump in its tracks. When they’re not shutting down inaugurations “forcing” the president-elect to take his oath of office ‘behind closed doors,’ if ‘at all’, this is what #Disrupt20—really the so-called D.C. Counter-Inaugural Welcoming Committee—do with their time: A group of leftist activists is plotting to “shut down” the inauguration of Donald Trump on Jan. 20 – forcing the president-elect to take his oath of office “behind closed doors” – “if Trump is to be inaugurated at all.” The group, known as the D.C. Counter-Inaugural Welcoming Committee, or #DisruptJ20, says it calls on “all people of conscience to shut down the ceremonies.” It continues, “If Trump is inaugurated at all, let it happen behind closed doors, showing the world that the vast majority of people in the U.S. do not support his presidency or consent to his rule.” Trump stands for tyranny, greed, and misogyny. He is the champion of neo-nazis and white Nationalists, of the police who kill the Black, Brown and poor on a daily basis, of racist border agents and sadistic prison guards, of the FBI and NSA who tap your phone and read your email. He is the harbinger of even more climate catastrophe, deportation, discrimination, and endless war. He continues to deny the existence of climate change, in spite of all the evidence, putting the future of the whole human race at stake.The KKK, Vladimir Putin, Golden Dawn, and the Islamic State all cheered his victory. If we let his inauguration go unchallenged, we are opening the door to the future they envision. Your Time is UP! IT'S TIME TO CALL TEAM AMERICA

ISIS seizes Russian air base

ISIS seizes big Russian-Syrian T-4 air base  Skoonj Islamic State forces pushed their assault forward to retake the central Syrian town of Palmyra Monday, Dec. 12. By evening, they had entered the big Russian-Syrian T-4 air base outside the town, carrying off substantial quantities of Russian armaments. Reporting this, DEBKAfile’s military sources add that the booty they snatched included different types of ground-to-ground missiles as well as anti-tank and anti-air rockets. At least two of the incoming president Donald Trump’s designated security advisers – Defense Secretary Gen, James Mattis and National security Adviser Gen. Michael Flynn – have criticized the operation in is current form. Russian forces manning the base were hurriedly evacuated from Palmyra and the T-4 base, after the worst defeat Russian armed forces had ever experienced at ISIS hands in Syria. Military circles in Moscow commented grimly that the Russian army had suffered “a major disgrace” in Palmyra. According to our sources, long convoys of ISIS fighters backed by tanks taken booty from the Syrian army, first forced the Syrian 11th Tank Division to abandon the strategic Jhar Crossroad. After that, the way was clear for the jihadis’ column to reach the T-4 base. DEBKAfile reported on the ISIS terrorists’ fresh momentum Sunday. Judging from the rash of reports claiming US-Iraqi military progress in the Mosul offensive against ISIS and the extra American special operations forces personnel posted to Syria for an impending US-Kurdish operation to capture the ISIS Syrian stronghold of Raqqa, the Islamic State ought to be cowering under siege, finally defeated - or at least on the run. But the facts tell another story. ISIS is on the offensive – so far in the Middle East. Over the weekend, Islamist terrorists accounted for dozens of deaths and injured hundreds more.

Electoral College coup attempt

The one thing you must understand about the unfolding media-Democrat Electoral College coup attempt The only allegedly “new” information is not new information, but anonymous leaks to the NY Times and Washington Post that the CIA has changed its assessment that the Russians intended not just to disrupt the U.S. elections but to “help” Trump. We are witnessing nothing short of an attempt to steal the election by some Democrats and a very supportive mainstream and leftwing media, by causing Electors in the Electoral College to go rogue and vote for Hillary, or at least not vote for Trump. The first excuse for this tactic after the election was made by people like Prof. Lawrence Lessig (I’m Trying to Run for President, but the Democrats Won’t Let Me).  At least he was honest in his call to have the Electors stop Trump because he didn’t like the result and thought Trump would be a horrible president on a host of issues. Honest, but severely misguided. Call that Operation Flip the Electors, Part One.  [...] It’s one thing to say that allegations of foreign tampering should be thoroughly investigated. They should. But it’s quite a different thing to use that alleged tampering to overturn elections. So yes, I am calling the overwhelming majority of people, particularly in the media, pushing Operation Flip The Electors, Part Two, of being liars about why they want the Electors to stop Trump.

FAKE YOU!

. Media go after fake news with a fake story about Pope Francis The press' crusade against the spread of fake news is not going well. Newsrooms were set abuzz Wednesday morning after a Belgian Catholic weekly published an interview in which Pope Francis supposedly condemned "fake news" as a sin. Ironically enough, the pope didn't quite do this, meaning the press pushed a bogus story claiming Francis had condemned bogus stories. Fake Newsman Brian Williams Slams Fake News Fake journalist Brian Williams, who was suspended from the NBC Nightly Newsanchor slot for reporting fake news and lost the job altogether — and is now relegated to an MSNBC position — slammed fake news on MSNBC on Thursday. What's that? Mainstream media is the chief culprit behind ‘fake news’

WHO CARES WHO HACKED HILARY?

Fox News FBI @Wikileaks just took a dump on Hillary Clinton Frankly, the big story question here is, are the leaked documents legitimate?  And, the answer is yes; absolutely.  Who leaked them, and how were the gotten is the subject for the intelligence services to tackle.  Maybe some of the 16,000 FBI agents hired to administer OBAMA CARE can be used. The first order of business then, is for the DOJ to vigorously prosecute any law breakers, and that means virtually the entire Clinton crime family will go to prison—unless some are guilty of capital crimes, in which case lethal injection is the proper punishment. ASIDE: DNC staffer Seth Rich, is thought to be one of the leakers, and now he is dead. The impetus came from Bernie supporter's within the DNC who were pissed over the way he was smeared, shafted and screwed by Hillary's machine. There are obviously still more leakers, and they all deserve the Medal of Honor for extraordinary actions against America's enemies, during time if war, and with complete disregard for their own safety.

THE CROWN

cinema à la carte

THE CROWN The Crown traces the life of Queen Elizabeth II from her wedding in 1947 to the present day. It is expected to span 60 episodes over six seasons, with Claire Foy playing the Queen in the early part of her reign The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 91% approval rating based on 43 reviews, with an average rating of 8.7/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Powerful performances and lavish cinematography make The Crown a top-notch production worthy of its grand subject."[25] On Metacritic, the film holds a score of 81 out of 100, based on 29 critics, indicating "universal acclaim". John Lithgow's role as Winston Churchill is, IMO, on a par with the late Philip Seymour Hoffman's performance as Truman Capote.  Perfect!  The biggest loser so far is a churlish Prince Phillip, although I suspect he will mellow out over time, and, deservedly so,the Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson for whom history has already spoken.

PROOF of DEM VOTER FRAUD

Half of Detroit Votes May be Ineligible for Recount The Detroit News December 6, 2016 One-third of precincts in Wayne County could be disqualified from an unprecedented statewide recount of presidential election results because of problems with ballots. Michigan’s largest county voted overwhelmingly for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, but officials couldn’t reconcile vote totals for 610 of 1,680 precincts during a countywide canvass of vote results late last month. Most of those are in heavily Democratic Detroit, where the number of ballots in precinct poll books did not match those of voting machine printout reports in 59 percent of precincts, 392 of 662. According to state law, precincts whose poll books don’t match with ballots can’t be recounted. If that happens, original election results stand. “It’s not good,” conceded Daniel Baxter, elections director for the city of Detroit. He blamed the discrepancies on the city’s decade-old voting machines, saying 87 optical scanners broke on Election Day. Many jammed when voters fed ballots into scanners, which can result in erroneous vote counts if ballots are inserted multiple times. Poll workers are supposed to adjust counters to reflect a single vote but in many cases failed to do so, causing the discrepancies, Baxter said. Even so, Baxter said it’s unlikely all 392 of the city’s precincts with mismatched numbers will be disqualified from a recount. The city is in contact with elections officials at the state of Michigan and Baxter predicted the numbers will match when the ballot boxes are re-opened for the recount, which starts Tuesday in Wayne County at Cobo Center. “It’s a challenge, but we’re confident the ballots will match,” Baxter said. “I don’t think it’s going to be 100 percent, but it never is with a recount.” Dan in Ohio County reports obtained by The Detroit News, though, indicate canvassers were provided no explanation for why the numbers didn’t add up in those precincts. They certified the results of the election anyway...... Etc., Etc., Etc. You get the idea. Go to the link to read it all if you wish. RON in OHIO And - A related story about stopping the Michigan recount [...] Jill Stein, of course, does not expect to change the results of the election. She launched her laughable recount effort in a vainglorious attempt to raise money. As Conservative Review’s Rob Eno explained: “Stein did this to increase her donor file. Many politicians ‘buy’ their donor files from their campaigns. It is a valuable source of income for the candidate. In a report on Ben Carson’s donor list an expert told NBC News that each email address of an active donor is worth $5-$6 on the open rental market over a three year period. Stein is looking to cash in.” Should Lisa Lyons’ bill pass in Michigan, it would be retroactive to Jan. 1, 2016, forcing Jill Stein to pay for her own demands. It would justifiably save the state’s taxpayers millions, and stick it to the Green Party con artist. ASIDE: Sorry this is so late. Ron sent it yesterday, but I am in the throes of the worst wintertime cold that even my wife tole me that any other man would be crying in delirium for his mommy to make him some creamed peas on toast.  Don't be concerned, I am a survivor.  Thank you. PS.  It would not surprise if recounts in Nevada and Colorado would give Trump those states as well.
