Neat Map

Neat map of LA traffic, but that is a whole lot of cameras looking at us all.

Simply Amazing

I am still amazed that the republicans keep saying this. It was actually the will of the American People to have someone else as president if you just look at the vote tallies for each candidate. It is an antiquated system that however propelled our chief misogynist to the office he now holds.

Also, his landslide was one of the lowest EC victories in some time.

Then again, I know most Fox News viewers will only see the headline and refrain from doing any actual research on this topic.

This has to be a response to the US requirements now, and the US language around Huawei

and the barr goes on

Clear Goal of Barr/Durham Probe is to Scare Off Intelligence Community.

Is Barr's distrust come from an earlier rejection by this community? Is this his petty revenge?
"Last month, media outlets reported that Barr’s investigation had become acriiminal one."

Also more interesting if this ends up being true. My guess is if it is true, then it will never get released and will be swept up under the rug.

a strange assassination story

Russia Ordered a Killing That Made No Sense. Then the Assassin Started Talking. 

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/31/world/europe/russian-assassinations-putin-ukraine.html

Wow......
"Assassinations happen frequently enough in Ukraine that they are often just blips in the local news cycle. In 2006, Russian President Vladimir V. Putin signed a law legalizing targeted killings abroad, and Ukrainian officials say teams of Russian hit men operate freely inside the country."

This could be in other places, and not just in social media. It would not surprise me if global chaos is an end goal. This way Russia can rise up, stop their meddling and gas lighting, and then seem the heroes to the world. 
"“This is part of an interlinked chain of crimes, the main purpose of which is to destabilize the country,” Serhii Knyazev, the chief of Ukraine’s national police, told me."
