hey Jack, is there any way you can find common ground with the "elites"?

unity will require some compromise because folks who believe differently from you aren't going away

Good question.   Elites won't reach out until their status is threatened.  

Right now we are seeing a visceral elitist reaction because there is fear.  The elite only have to offer trinkets...and then business as usual.

The only way to deal with this is a lot less govt spending...and that is not likey to change anytime soon

Intent is required to charge under 18 U.S.C 973 (f).  It also appears to be a specific intent at that per a WWII era Court ruling.  Feel free to research.  

I was thinking in terms of a negligence case where intent wouldn’t matter.

“In order to establish negligence as a Cause of Action under the law of torts, a plaintiff (government) must prove that the defendant had a duty to the plaintiff, the defendant breached that duty by failing to conform to the required standard of conduct, the defendant's negligent conduct was the cause of the harm to the plaintiff (government).”

Cracks in the GOP. We'll see if they widen or if those not toeing the line backtrack under Trumper pressure.

First no comment from McConnell. Now Chris Christie says:

 

Nothing new.  McConnell's been walking that tightrope since before Trump left office, and Christie's been unafraid to speak his mind for a while now.

It gives me a headache just trying to think down to your level

The term “gross negligence” appears the bar in the text of 18 U.S. C 793 (f), but the ruling in Gorin v United States (1941) seems to have narrowed the law to require intent specifically to benefit a foreign power.  Apparently, only one case of 793 (f) has ever been brought up since ‘41 based on gross negligence.  Plea deal to a lesser charge was the result. This is a good summary.

FIFY

Planning is an exercise of power, and in a modern state much real power is suffused with boredom. The agents of planning are usually boring; the planning process is boring; the implementation of plans is always boring. In a democracy boredom works for bureaucracies and corporations as smell works for skunk. It keeps danger away. Power does not have to be exercised behind the scenes. It can be open. The audience is asleep. The modern world is forged amidst our inattention.

Uhm, all FBI "raids" require warrants.

It is arguing over semantics.  

I've been accused of arguing over some antics...

Disagree...this is just more bread and circus.

Not read a ton of Marx, have you?
