    It's like he's looking to try and leave the worst possible legacy he can.

    The last 10 weeks have been perfect for anyone who was abhorred by the sight of him in the office and how he, his family members in public focus and close confidants treated it like it was their personal empire to play with as they chose to.

    Everything they have done has just cemented their lack of professionalism and class in a way that cannot be denied by those who sought to give him excuses. This is them totally revealed, their true motivations and levels of dignity. Give the job to a reality TV character, get a reality TV show performance.

    Unsurprising, due to the fact she hid from view most of the last 4 years people falsely attirbute the idea that shes somehow trapped and an unwilling participant in all of this but in reality shes just as bad as any of them, we just dont get to see or hear about it as much. She deserves no sympathy, she knew exactly what she was doing and shes getting what she wants out of it.

    There are concerns that some military/national guard people in attendance could be some of Trumps terrorists looking to "finish the job" so to speak, so the FBI are apparently doing a lot of extra vetting as a precaution.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. defense officials say they are worried about an insider attack or other threat from service members involved in securing President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, prompting the FBI to vet all of the 25,000 National Guard troops coming into Washington for the event.

    That's not a military coup

    Reading online that pardons don't have to be made public and can effectively be whipped out when needed like some sort of magic card trick.

    My guess is that we won't know of most of them until later.

    Disappointing

    Does this mean that Hugo Chavez is in exile in China now and that is where he was running the election from? Difficult to keep up with all of this really reliable evidence that they keep finding, but then losing the moment someone asks for a peek at it.

    And the schedule for his final day is...

    "President Trump will work from early in the morning until late in the evening. He will make many calls and have many meetings"

    So another day of watching TV. A fitting end.

    Rudy is some fcuking plike. This is a guy who put together the successful Rico convictions of the leaders of the 5 familys, became Mayor of New York, was a bit of a hero after 9/11 and ended up throwing it all away on Trump who's just thrown him to the wolves when he outlived his usefulness.

    From national hero to getting your weiner out for Borat. Some fall.

    There's a chapter in the first freakanomics book about how the broad fall in violent crime across the USA in the 1990s was more a consequence of Roe V Wade decades earlier than any later policing policies.

    He cleaned out the Italian mob, only to leave a power vacuum for the Russian mob to move in to. And he destroyed the nightclub scene there

    Nah it was down to the billions poured into militarizing the police forces in the 90s to combat the drug problem creates ironically by Reagan another bastion of republican ideals.

    And as a result of a drastic drop in environment lead during the 1980s and 1990s from the banning of leaded petrol.

    Guiliani's "Zero tolerance" policy just happened to land at the same time that crime rates across the US (and a lot of the western world) were dropping.

    That paper was later debunked.

    Also made minor criminals into more serious via the prison industrial complex. Lob poor people into prison for things like weed possession.

    I don't know about the Russian mob to be honest but looking at the pictures of times Square from the 80's and early 90's it's a completely different city.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,841 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    I don't think there's any doubt that regardless of the details, Guiliani had a very positive impact during his time as mayor, and especially in the aftermath of 9/11.

    But given everything that's happened since, it's now such a minor part of his legacy. He'll always be remembered for the calamities he was part of with Trump. I mean when I'm 80 and there's something in the news about a distant relative of Guiliani doing something, I'm still going to think "Guiliani... wasn't that the guy who did the press conference in the parking area of a sex shop because he confused a hotel with a landscaping company?"

    Carter a one termer. Seems a lot to me.

    Anyway, the issue of abolishing the practice is front and centre now.

    It'll be interesting to see if anything changes in the next 4 years to remove this practice.

    Trump is going to do 100 today alone. I think comparing him to anyone else is pointless at this stage.
