THE ERA OF TRUMP

[Okeefenokee]

Has it occurred to anyone yet that the issue isn’t about immigration policy, so much as having a drunk uncle in command?

Only to hack bitches trying to deflect from what is on display from the left. That's pretty much the only person who would want to ignore the actual topic in discussion. It's a perfectly understandable tact to take if you're the side getting outed for what you are in front of everyone, but that doesn't mean we're gonna let you do it.

*Tack, and yeah fuck that lefty noise.

This expression has nothing to do with tactfulness and everything to do with sailing, in which it is a direction taken as one tacks—abruptly turns—a boat. To “take a different tack” is to try another approach.

Tact is sensitivity in social situations. A tack is a course or an approach (the word has nautical origins). When switching courses or taking a different approach, one changes tack, not tact.

Tact often appears in place of tack. Presumably some people think of it as short for tactic, which is synonymous with tack in some contexts. This is understandable given how rare tack is, but tact is not conventionally short for tactic, and, fairly or not, phrases like change tact are generally considered wrong by people who pay attention to these things.

One doesn't "take a tact," one has "tact," or is "tactful."

Now, to be fair, I think you may have meant something like: It is perfectly tactful to [something] if you're the side getting outed for what you are in front of everyone, but that doesn't mean we're gonna let you do it.

The prime takeaway from this collective tantrum is that, when the democrats finally do reduce the United States to a third world shithole, they won't even acknowledge what they did. If they can look at Haiti and El Salvador, and not admit those places are objectively shit holes, then imagine what America will look like if the democrats ever regain power again.. Seriously. Ponder that for about two seconds.

Far as I can tell this whole thing, other than the president's usual utter lack of class, is similar to who can use the N word. My wife's colleagues, an MD from Haiti and an MSW from El Salvador, said that only THEY can call their countries the shitholes that they are. This is all part of the identity politics you guys adore.

Oh bullshit. I picked it up from you. I agree with your identity politics and I raise you one white majority. LOL. Checkmate.

And as half of Puerto Ricans are still out of electricity, rescue workers (if you can call them that anymore) seize stockpile of badly needed parts from other part of the government.

day after becoming aware of a massive store of rebuilding materials being held by the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, the U.S. federal government — the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, along with their security detail — entered a Palo Seco warehouse owned by the public utility to claim and distribute the equipment, according to a spokesperson for the Corps.

Rumors of a tense standoff had been circulating on the island, but the encounter was confirmed to The Intercept in a statement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Asked if the federal officers were armed when they entered the warehouse, USACE spokesperson Luciano Vera said they were indeed accompanied by security detail and quickly began distributing the material after seizing it.

As PREPA hoards crucial resources that could help remedy the island’s dire situation, the Puerto Rican government is attempting to annihilate the power provider’s only regulator.

“Warehouse 5” — the one which USACE and FEMA entered Saturday — “falls under the control of the [PREPA] transmission division and has lacked transparency in inventory and accountability,” the email from Vera continued. Carlos Torres, appointed by Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló to oversee power restoration, was on site as well.

“Due to the size of the warehouse,” Vera said, accounting for everything contained therein is still underway days later. Among the materials recovered so far are “2,875 pieces of critical material to contractors” along with the sleeves of full-tension steel, a component of Puerto Rican electrical infrastructure required to erect new power lines

The governor is calling for DOJ probe on the issue.

Wonder what kind of racket was going on.
