I'm sorry to interrupt the hearing talk but this video of Hatch removing glasses that he isn't wearing is killing me dead.

The DC Council is holding an oversight hearing at 11 with the United Medical Center Director of the Board. "The Committee shall examine the recent decision of the Board to permanently close obstetrical services at United Medical Center, as well as the progress that has been made on addressing serious patient safety, financial, and managerial issues at the hospital." This is the hospital in Ward 8 (highly segregated area of the city) that has been so problematic and controversial. Latest gossip is that they were planning to close their OB ward before the Department of Health stepped in to close them, which raises a lot of new questions. dccouncil.us/events/health-public-oversight-roundtable3 (When they start, the link to the live video will be on that site.) Signaling crunch cakewench byjove Uncaripswife dc2london and others I'm forgetting who followed my rant on the subject a few weeks ago. Quoting myself with an update. The chair of the board (excuse my mistake calling her the director above) didn't even show up to the hearing. She gave the date to the committee as available on her calendar. TOTAL BULLSHIT. I’m in school right now but I’ll tell you know this played out in the ward 8 fb group when I can go home in check. I’m sure it’s getting some chatter there.

MH asking about DACA recip losing status and not able to reapply 15000 What is happening with them? Is there an expedited procedure for them to reapply? KN says 20k didnt WANT to renew, and she isnt sure about the 15 who cant renew The 20k who "didn't want to renew" failed to get their paperwork in on time. 4k of those had actually mailed their applications in. This bitch can go fuck herself. 😒 www.businessinsider.com/22000-daca-recipients-missed-renewal-deadline-2017-10After spending the last four hours with her I can flatly say I don't like her.

Graham is wanting to know what happened between Tues and Thurs. Well Lindsey I'll tell you its called Steven Miller he praises Dick Durbin. I was listening to CNN and they made a good point. Everyone is assuming Miller is the instigator in this and it may be true. But don’t forget about Gen Kelly. His views are just the same and he may have been the one to call Sens Cotton and others to get over to talk to Trump and be there for the meeting with Durbin and Graham. Maybe I’m assuming he has more power than he really does, but I would assume as Chief of Staff at the very least he would be well aware of who would be in a meeting like this before they walked in the door. So if he’s not the one who called them/directed they be called then I assume he at least knew it was happening.

I definitely think this is what's happening. Mueller subpoenaed Bannon to give him cover to tell the truth

I can't watch at work so I'm catching up. Here's a portion of Booker. It's worth watching.

Oh!! I forgot to tell you all! On Sunday we wandered into an open house in another neighborhood just for kicks. The owner had a circa 1970 GSA surplus filing safe EXACTLY like the one at the beginning of The Post.

The Manafort- Gates trial will begin in September or October. Prosecution has requested 3 weeks for their side of the case. Meaning he trial could end just before midterms.....

She is a disgusting, disrespectful jerk After watching todays testimony I can't believe the utter disrespect everyone in this admin shows Congress. I think everyone in this country needs to take another lesson in how the government is supposed to work. The disrespect they show the committees is disrespecting the people of the country. The executive office was never supposed to have the ultimate power. That belongs to the people. I also want to punt her across a field.

In what universe is it acceptable to be so disrespectful? And the fact that she's never met with a Dreamer. Unreal.

"Sources say Bannon told by WH not to answer questions before House Intel Cmte about the White House and the transition. Did not assert executive privilege. Committee subpoenas him during the meeting to comply while in the hearing." I'm so confused by the English in this Tweet and subject-verb structure. Who did not assert exec priv? WH or Bannon? or the source or Committee for that matter? Subpeonas Bannon (?) during which meeting (the hearing? or another meeting?)

So the WH told Bannon to not answer but stopped short of asserting privilege.

Trump is 40 lbs. overweight. His coronary calcium score of 133 means he has heart disease. In 4 years, his coronary calcium score increased by 35%. In 9 years, it's increased by 300%. His LDL is high, and his blood sugar is 1 point off from being borderline diabetic. In addition to that, it is well known the man lives on a high fat, high carb, high sugar diet and doesn't exercise beyond hopping off his golf cart to swing a club. I'm just... Okay. Sure. Fine. But you know, he doesn't have heart disease and is perfectly healthy. One of the most personally annoying parts of this administration is losing respect for people I used to admire or at least respect. Looking at you, Dr Jackson.

Now they are going to swing the weekly golf outings as an 'exercise program'

SHS is keeping the end questions short.
In contrast to past predecessors the pres did not take part in any memorials yesterday or do service? WHy because he did that on friday and wants to do it throughout the year.
