Michael Wolff Filed Lawsuit Against Melania Trump

[quintessentone]

If you are looking to make an assessment, I would suggest listen to neither exclusively.

DI is not a "filter"... it is effectively an archive of people's words to each other...
an ongoing, and occasionally raucous, conversation... generally pointing out how what
we are often told is never exactly true.

Our "mainstream" and "off-stream" sources may provide some useful and valid information...
but it appears that it literally never is free from "intents."  Even the "official" ones.

"Press release journalism" is now my favorite hateful manifestation to point out as a hall mark of the new "journalism," so I admit bias 'against' their narratives.

But truly, I take responsibility (in as much as I can) for my own looming situation, and orbiting the "homeless" funnel is not something I would talk about with anyone face to face. 
To me (perhaps my mindset) it is a blow to who I am and what I do... ego is a real thing.

I don't seek sympathy, or empathy... but I reserve the privilege of saying...
"I know how badly it feels, and how fearful one becomes when departing the "normal" 
world and entering this "desperate" one...

Trump, as a matter of fact, is nothing.
And until he does something for the friggin' economy for us... he will remain nothing,

Just like every politician before him.

The President is supposed to be our champion....
He is champion of Republicans, some Democrats, Some super citizens, and the media gets
to play Hero/Anti-hero... for bucks....  As far as that world is concerned - they "rule."

You only hear what they publish... I'm not certain we can ever find simple fact in there anymore.
His political games and shenanigans have been rendered into "theater for us to revel in."

OK... I get the "circus".... where is my goddamned "bread?"

You've said it all "where is my goddamned bread"?

[DBCowboy]

Want to know where your god-damned bread is?

It's at the store.

The government is not our nanny, it is not our parents, it's not supposed to tuck us in at night.

Government should make laws, protect our borders and national interests.  It should deliver the fucking mail.

You want a steak?

Work for it.

You know what? 

I did... and I did well...

Then a funny stupid thing that's not in the government's accounting system asserted itself over their self-serving bullshit... it's called reality.

Should I be able to survive after 3 careers, and 4 children, A life-ending profit opportunity for the
healthcare club, and supposed "social security" that cannot be a real thing.. because it doesn't offer security... and I can't even explain how it's "social."

Now - after "investing" in "the world"...

I should have to haul my service-connected disabled ass back into the "market" to become the wage-slave
I made all the "necessary" sacrifices, didn't I?

"Go to work?"

Pardon me... you know I love you... 

Fuck you.

I'm also disabled.

And no one EVER said life was easy or anything was guaranteed.

If I want a fucking Prime Rib for Christmas though, I'm going to make sure I have it.

And I'm not going to bitch and moan about it.

And my mom became paralyzed from the waist down in the '51\52 polio epidemic -- with 3 kids under 6 -- and my father ran off with another woman because it was too much for him to handle.

Must be her fault if she can't support her family and feed them steak.

Yeah -- life wasn't easy.  

Fortunately, her employer created a position for her so she could come back to work after a year of rehabilitation.  Not everyone is that lucky.

Doubt few companies today would be that generous.

@DBCowboy - Cool... cool.

Perhaps we don't recall the stated object and promise of "Social Security."

Compelled to participate...

Promise of equitable sustainable income... when you must leave whatever
service you are in....

It is called "planning for the future" in the jargon...

We did... you didn't and aren't delivering...
and it's everybody's fault... except theirs.  

Hmmm...

Yeah,  we don't want to talk about the veneer...

[UltraBudgie]

Wait... is this the beginning of a "heist" movie?

Social Security is a scam.  It's the government's way of dictating what you should have and how much you can spend.

If the only thing you're relying on is Social Security, you are a slave to government.

I've worked for the government for most of my adult life.

And I don't trust them a bit.

I'll use the fuck out of them, but I won't trust or rely on them.
