Crazed Democrat Shot Republicans at Baseball Practice

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise was shot at Republican baseball practice today, probably by a crazed Democrat party symp. SInce the Washington Post seems more like the Al Qaeda of the U.S.A. news outlet today the development is not surprising. With billionaire interntet people owning the Post and Facebook the reign of terro on the Republican Party is a long term build. Crazed Democrats seek to take down every Christian expression, every conservative trend, and they have support of the computer-Internet billionaires to make the U.S.A. a godless, atheist evil empire.

It turns out that the shooter, James T. Hodgkins, actually was a crazed Democrat who signed a petition for Sanders to run as an independent after losing the 2016 Democrat Primary to the Clinton dynasty. The fact that a fairly ordinary rank and file union carpenter/building inspector went after the Republican Party with guns shows the change the broadcast media have brought to the U.S.A. insofar as they have guttered the public thinking processes and trained the left to be radical haters.

Democrats have been indoctrinated to destroy Christians, due process of law, national security,friendship with Russia, traditional moral values and belief in God. Union members that support Democrats are crazy since Democrats also support illegal immigration sanctuary and it was Obama that signed off with overwhelming suport from Democrats on the Bush II tax cuts.

The U.S. Senate Should Cut Back Russian Sanctions

The U.S. Senate should get rid of most of its sanctions that exacerbate stress with Russia and try constructive engagement instead. That would be good for each economy and lead Russian toward more liberal capitalism eventually.

President Reagan’s policy of constructive engagement with South Africa eventually led to the end of apartheid as did President Reagan’s willingness to work with the Soviets support the end of the Cold War.

The hillbilly approach of the Legislative branch of government toward Russia with ever more sanctions accomplishes nothing except faux patriotism for television campaigns.

Would Taiwan Like to Be a U.S. Territory or State?

Taiwan has a good location from which the United States could market directly to China. Yet Taiwan has problems with China inasmuch as its larger neighbor feels it can bully it about and threaten to invade it for-themselves. I wonder if Taiwan has ever though about petitioning the U.S. Senate or House to become a U.S. territory?

Now that Puerto Rico has great economic difficulties it has finally voted overwhelmingly to become a U.S. state instead of remaining in territorial status. That's a good idea too since Americans will flock to vacation there as if it were Hawaii. Taiwan has good chances too.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/panama-establishes-ties-with-china-abandoning-taiwan-as-beijing-steps-up-the-pressure/2017/06/13/0a3bc8f0-4ff5-11e7-a973-3dae94ed3eb7_story.html

Modern American Presidents tend to be just lawyers. President Trump however might just listen favorably to a Taiwanese petition to join the United States (after a few years as a territory of the United States). Taiwan might be able to act as a good influence on President Trump's lack of understanding about the evils of drift net fishing and the harm to whales that can do. Taiwanese probably value seafood far more than Mr. Trump who looks more like a beef eater to me.

How Can Senate Trust AG Sessions WIthout Tweets?

Attorney General Sessions may have testified before the Senate today. Unanswered though is the important issue of why he hasn't tweeted much about anything while on the job, or before he met the Russian ambassador someplace that wasn't tweeted about?

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/us/politics/jeff-sessions-testimony.html

While I have not myself signed up for Twitter, meaningful tweet excerpts are posted and can be discovered via search engines and embedded within news articles now and then. If the U.S. Attorney General had been a true Twitter tweeter of any stature, the public effects would have filtered out by now.

Democrats will ask; where are the missing tweets Mr. Attorney General?

Christian Theology Opponents and Implicit Superficiality

Many of the arguments people use against Christianity and arguments skeptics make against the Bible are cloned. I hope to add a chapter to my ebook 'God, Cosmology and Nothingness' sometime to directly address those concerns. Much of the skeptic's thought is rather summarily dismissive and just doesn't have depth of understanding of either science or religion much less of how to interpret either. It's actually very time consuming to achieve any sort of enlightened state through reading about science and Christianity, while accusatory attacks can be made easily.

A problem for Christian apologetics is comparable to that experienced by conservationists in defending wilderness and wildlife; cheap easy for-profit attacks need be successful once in time to harm the body. Sadly the Trump administration just vetoed a ,measure to protect whales and dolphins from mile-long drift-net fishing in the California Pacific. I was hoping Press. Trump would make American Pacific fishing great again, alas. Here is a link for a free download of my ebook

Linguistic philosophy tended to make philosophers have a more objective view about language and words in the 20th century. That includes words and word strings called 'facts' too. Facts are also included as propositions. One tends to stipulate certain word strings as constants and in that context as 'facts' in order for language-meanings to make sense or just work. Fats change though, as recently the origin of mankind was found to have perhaps been in the Balkans instead of the rift valley, and the first homo sapiens skeleton was found in Morocco at 300,000 BC instead of 200,000 B.C. on the other side of Africa.

The effort to be factual is good. The problem is that certainty is one of the most ancient of philosophical issues. Remember the Socratic discourses such as the Meno? Epistemology or theory of knowledge does I think bring one to the eventual insight that knowledge is conditional and phenomenal rather than empirically absolute. Quine brought one to view language as existing in its own unique ontology-I guess that each language ontology has the indeterminacy of translation problem that Wittgenstein noted earlier in the Blue and Brown books. Human knowledge is not only existent within a temporal space-time continuum with relativity generally. It is also phenomenal. That is another reason why I have faith in God rather than the temporal assertions of absolute certainty of mankind.

Lebron James Could Make the Lakers Great Again

The Lakers need LeBron James to make them great again. Lebron is a free agent and can sign with the Lakers who also have the number two draft choices this year. James owes nothing to the Cavaliers having given them a title already. Lebron James signing with L.A. could make the Lakers great again.

Cleveland fundamentally went wrong in trading away its number one draft choice a few years ago for Kevin Love. James needed a young, energetic front line guy to compliment his workload.

Has an N.B.A player has won the title with three teams? Lebron James might become the first if he goes to Los Angeles. For Cleveland and Jame's desire to make a lasting difference he should just establish a Great Lakes fisheries research facility to make fishing great again (in co-operation with a quality University Marine Sciences dept.). That's probably the best lasting difference he might make, and its good when the fishing is good.

China Eliminates Rural Poor By Forcing Them To Urban Ghettos

For many rural people the city is a ghetto and desert devoid of green life and health. China wants to eliminate rural poverty through removal and relocation to cities, yet that cull of people from what remains of nature is a way to let concentrated wealth and farm technology dominate the countryside for corporate and ruling power.

President Xi Jinping plans to move 10 million more rural people into cities in the next few years to erase a trace of rural poverty so far as he can. It would be better to move cottage industry to rural people though, allowing them to produce technology for expport as well as domestic use that would improve the quality of rural life directly.

There are innumerable devices and configurations that would improve rural life from specially designed small watt using microwave oven and oilets coupled with solar power along with hot water heaters using just sunshine.

President Jinping should form a think-tank to produce suitable micro-industry technology that could be produced in home for a profit by rural residents and coordinate networks of production and sales.

Trump Administration Bungles Whale Defense

President Trump's National Marine Service gutted protections for endangered whale, dolphins and sea turtles off the California coast in a misguided effort to increase business opportunity. The administration should not act like bloodthirsty lunatics with harpoons in hand.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/trump-administration-ends-rule-for-whales-and-sea-turtles/ar-BBCBVvj?li=BBnb7KB

Mile-long driftnets are not good for business in the long run. Not only do they kill endangered wild mammals, they take too many fish and overall ruin fishing in  perpetrating an eleatic reduction cycle of managing smaller overall returns.

President Trump should immediately overturn the radical, anti-conservation rule and work to make America's Pacific coast waters great again for fishing elininating drift nets. Conservation of fish stocks-basicaly measurable by the number of sea mammals that can exist in it along with ph levels is the work of Theodore Roosevelt style actions-not those of a steal the rest of the food in the cupboard policies.

Chess Generations Moving On

Though I believe Naka will be the sole leader after Thurs.. it is amazing watching the mix of strong old and young players at Stavanger. In a decade probably none of them will be there with so many young players on the way. Former chess savants like Svidler have already dropped out of the top ten, as have so many others that people learning chess formerly admired for winning style.

It is difficult to imagine MC not moving on to other fields in life if he dominates chess the next decade. Gary Kasparov had a rather unique situation with the fall of the former Soviet Union and disruption of the Soviet chess school while the U.S. had no stars (until Naka). GK's highest world rating 23 years probably will never again be duplicated until players have computer chip augmented brains and cyber-thought. His was the last of the mostly pre-computer generation of chess greats who did not have to encounter younger players that trained since childhood with home computers.MC will have a horde of younger players that have studied his every game ahead, as will the other presently young adult players. The next clash of generations will be great chess indeed.

Brit P.M. Theresa May Fighting to Keep Britain Independent

British Prime Minister Theresa May continues fighting on to keep Britain independent and not a lackey of Globalist socialist-nihilists in the E.C. It is ironic that England's effort to keep what it can of political sovereignty that is vital for democracy is being attacked by the very people it serves most; labor. In her own Battle of Britain, the beleagured PM lost support after the recent election.

Britain's history as a global empire gave way long ago to a financial empire without much geography remaining abroad as vassal client states. The change has gone so far that Britian has nearly lost its indentity as a free state within the European Community where it is nothing ore than a place being ruled by decree of plutocracy shill-politicians.

It will be interestingto see if My's conservative party is able to keep the socialist tide from retaking Britain as part of the growing Evil Empire of EurasiaWest. In the post cold war world Europe has abandoned its values for national independence serving citizens in democracy for the easy autobahn ideal of proles run by plutocrat leaders in a corporate communal paradigm.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/britains-theresa-may-struggles-to-quell-revolt-over-her-leadership/2017/06/12/8da9a004-4ef1-11e7-b74e-0d2785d3083d_story.htm

War is not usually the answer, and neither is a plutocratic evil socialist empire. Democracy can provide financial and environmental safety nets if given a chance. Real citizenships has real meaning only with a geographic association called a nation.

Why Not Search Engine Channels for Low and High Data Content Sites Seperately?

At least I like to find simple articles on news and other topics to read without waiting 5 minutes for a 4G cpu to catch up with all of the junk some of the site producers think they need to add to their 'presentation' to make it more rich than those of rivals. However plain utility and speed matter far more to many than a dozen extraneous articles, photos and interviews off topic not to mention ads.

The answer might be to create a streamlined, efficient internet sign up for wev sites willing to put up material with a cap on the total amount of pprocessing power any user has to use to get it. Google could have low, medium and high site channels, and that would make it faster to use when a notebook or older pc is connected to some sports channel that feels bigger is necessarily better and that louder and flashy is what everyone with a computer wants to see.

Instead, that approach seems dumb, like as not, and a time consumer while waiting for nothing great. Computers ideally operate at the speed of mind and don't force 'dumb delays' wherever they can  get a chance. Apparently the media that afford the best of everything compete to produce the most computer space they can unaware that many do not have the bandwidth and processor speed.

Tibetan Seeking Revenge (Allegedly) Steals 900 Year-old Statue

A Tibetan couple were arrested for trying to sell a 900 year-old Buddhist statue. Apparently Ngawang Tsundue and a femal accomplice swiped the idol of a Buddhist saint named Terton Pema Lingpa from his former father-in-law. who is the  "Head Cheepa (Lama) of Sangyeling Gompa, a monastery in Tawang".

http://www.phayul.com/news/article.aspx?id=39133&article=Two+arrested+in+Majnu+ka+tilla+for+stealing+900-year-old+ancient+idol

It is sad that family strife and interactive dischord can emanate such terrible malalocation of misguided sculpture resource. Plainly iconoclasm never reached TIbet so they were thus spared the purge of art. One should trust the call of God will make itself heard to them in the dark night of captivity.

Russian Reality Show on Lena River Island Cancelled

It was too good to be true; a reality show on a Siberian island in the Lena River for something described as Hunger Games - Game2; WInter Project was a fake news project by a millionaire for market research. So many are disappointed after having signed up for a chance to not starve, be attacked by mosquitos and nats or drown in the river. What a place for rafting and fishing though as a consolation prize for those willing to travel to that remote area.

One can hope that Vladimir Putin is serious about restoring fishing runs to wild levels for sports-fishing.  http://siberiantimes.com/other/others/news/anger-as-controversial-siberian-hunger-games-creator-claims-his-idea-was-a-fake/

Sharia Protests and the Death Penalty for Facebook Post

Protests against Sharia (law) that have taken place around the nation were met by counter-protest, unsurprisingly. Islam is a nation of violent and confrontational expansionism wherein using lies to deciece the gullible is o.k. for the propagation of the system. In Pakistan another individual was convicted of blasheming Mohammad on Facebook and given the death penalty. Not for using F.B., but for making an insulting reference to the founder of the Islamic religion of Mecca.

WIth more followers of Mohammad as a percent of a community a coefficient of adversity for dissent increases too. It is unfortunate that in the U.S.A. and Europe the political effort to make western civilization decadent again is tireless too.

Regulation and Political Principles for Democracy Today

1) What regulation system or governing system is best now for the U.S.A.. Regulations may be made in any sort of political system, or even in a computer algorithm. For instance they exist in traffic control systems. Structures for regulation are ubiquitous these days. In FB for example, one has all sorts of implicit regulations regarding what can be posted. The use of html code is regulated so one cannot take over the entire page with advertisements for one’s book.

2) Moral principles differ from political philosophy. One might use utilitarianism as a moral system for instance that of Jeremy Bentham or John Stuart Mill, and seek the greatest good for the greatest number. A society such as the United States has a democracy and government in theory with the consent of the governed. A government of by and for the people and its actualization in the empirical world has strength and meaning only insofar as the citizens credit it with such. It is in effect a political co-op.

The citizens may choose what sort of taxation and public services they want to support to better their situation. Making the democracy the most effective, efficient nation they can; one able to defend itself and its interests and to allow the pursuit of happiness and summun bonum-supreme good-of the people individually and collectively may entail creating a social safety net and structures that enable individuals to avoid or extricate being in oppressive, stagnant social-economic circumstances. Individuals no longer live in a do-it-yourself frontier economy largely detached from the economic activities of their fellow citizens. Networking is national and global. Keeping as much individual freedom for self-determination as possible along with the best way of life (as an individual and democracy determine) requires right political and tax policy.

Capital returns are increasing faster than national economic growth in the United States presently. For one time wealth has been concentrating. In 20 years or so the economy largely will be owned by those that have inherited capital. That makes for an inefficient and increasingly economic determinism for the vast majority of individuals of the democracy that I transitioning to oligarchy and plutonomy.

German Leader Merkel Tries to Subvert U.S. Solar Panel Security Wall

 Chancellor Merkel Out-Flanking U.S. Border Security

German leader Angela Merkel jpoined the Mexican President to take a few shots and President Trump’s efforts to build a solar-panel security wall along the U.S. Mexico border. It is not helpful to have a physically non-working female that's never done an honest day’s labor in her life out trying to corrupt the effort to get a fair labor environment in the United States for U.S. citizens.

Chancellor Merkel seems like a kind of Zimmerman letter herself, insofar as she is out trying to recruit or support Mexicans that want to illegally invade the U.S. job market without obstacles.

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-40235671 Merkel agitating Mexico

Maybe Chancellor Merkel concerned with grandstanding has forgotten the 2008-9 financial crash as well as the nearly 20 trillion dollars of public debt the United States has. The people have over-cut taxes as well and cannot just throw a trillion dollars into the Mexican economy to make it better. Maybe Germany has and should do so. The United States however cannot directly intervene in the sovereign Mexican nation to direct the reconstruction of vast portions of the economy in that narco-state over-burdened with drug traffickers and organized crime. 

Chancellor Merkel should actually offer Mexicans free air fare to Germany to work-a trivial expense if they take full tie jobs and can repay the money. In fact German should take in all of the Mexicans that want to illegally invade the U.S. labor market and put them to work.

I have no problem with Mexicans. I just don’’t want them in the U.S.A. illegally taking jobs and making wages bad-as any rational worker who competes in the same fields know they do. Sure Mexicans provide cheap labor for those that employ them, an unfair advantage in market competition, yet that is at the cost of those honest citizens that don’t make a pile on cheap labor.

Globalists like running around sowing tares in the field of U.S. labor I suppose. Keeping labor oppressed with lousy pay or no work means that people can actually be homeless or reduced to living on government handouts. That is perfectly fine with the left’s globalist agenda for socialism as well as the agenda of the Davos crowd and Bildebergers seeking plutocracy and global oligarchy.

A democracy works best when all citizens and legal residents are accounted for and have equal protection of law. Free enterprise values require that corrupt labor insinuated into the market and illegal drugs do not enter to corrupt the social relations and values of work. Illegal migration to the U.S.A. Promotes crime in the U.S. and Mexico too, as does the drug trade. Chancellor Merkel should not promote either and continue the cycle of human misery.

The Problem of Evil

Actually the problem is that of language use. Words just correspond to objects, events and processes. Language is used to describe real things as well as fictitious things. The word 'evil' refers to things that are regarded as bad to human beings and maybe animals in some way. The word evil is usually used to describe some sort of behavior or attitude. Thus the events or behaviors commonly described as evil certainly exist. One may call it something else such as 'noogoogbadbad!' instead of 'evil', however the real circumstance or event/attitude exists anyway regardless of what its called. People tend to use or think that words have some kind of Platonic real things for-themselves existing out there in some spaced out way. That often happens with 'evil'. Incidentally the Bible uses the term 'evil' to mean bad things such as tidal waves that wipe out towns, and 'wicked' to refer to evil things that people do (so said the late Vernon J. McGee). Platonic universals refer realistically to word categories, though Plato did also believe that abstract forms of things existed in a realm of forms that could be today thought of as a foyer of the mind of God.

A Definition of Existentialism, What Morality Is, Black Hole Singularities

Existentialism is the philosophical system developed by Jean Paul Sartre. He called it a continuation of French rationalism. He examined experience of the cogito and self-awareness from first principles following in the manner of Descartes in his Discourse on a Method. He considered everything that he knew directly in his own thought and what he experienced of the world in which he found himself. The principle text of existential philosophy is his book Being and Nothingness written in Paris during the Second World War. I suppose it is a bit more on the side of German romanticism and the self-defining ego approach to things developed by followers of Hegel and Kierkegaard who were followers of Socrates, than on the side of empiricism and naive realism.

Logic hasn't morality or moral guidance. It is simply a reasoning tool. There are rules for classical and symbolic logic, yet the wicked can use them as well as computer programs and computational logic. IBM developed Adolph Hitler computational card reading devices used for processing Jews in the holocaust. There is no implicit good in logic, yet logic is a good tool for clear thinking. Morality on the other hand is actually what rules people and society actually have. Ethics is how those rules or moral norms are implemented. Thats more of a cultural anthropological view of what moral it. Even so, its good to have good moral values and challenging sometimes to structure them meta-socially so

I like the idea that infinities in General relativity that are found when one just continues contracting mass and energy under the influence of gravity seem to have no logical end. Yet obviously gravity is some sort of force or field characteristic and it is not at all certain that its power continues infinitely reduced. The assumption is (or one of the assumptions) that the unified field force at very high temperature breaks down all forces into one. A kind of infinite super-plasma of no size at all. A string has one dimension and a point zero-dimensions. As they build up compiling into brans they have more, and the structure of mass-energy in space-time coincidently exists.

Apparently black holes observed in the Universe are incomplete processes of infinite reduction to singularity. Though time appears to stop because of relativistic effects at the black hole event horizon, there are naked singularities perhaps without an event horizon i believe i remember reading. For some reason there are no black holes that equal anything per-existing the Universe. In that case nothing existed at all. The Universe was without form and void. Something said for it to begin, or there was a phase change and a point emerged into the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not, for there was no one yet evolved to think anything about a Universe to comprehend it.

How James Comey Failed as Trump's Apprentice

Former F.B.I. Director James Comey was destined to be fired. His resume just wasn't that of anyone who would advance as President Trump's apprentice. 'Your fired' thus couldn't have been more natural. He didn't seem like one that would advance toward CEO himself one day. He would not speak out forcefully against the operative Clinton campaign ideology mnemonic, "Make America Decay Again!"

With eight years of the Obama agenda that wreaked havoc on the nation’s traditional moral values behind him President Trump has had some deep cleaning to get underway if the Executive branch were to be made an effective part of the U.S. government again. James Comey; a Chicago lawyer seemed to have too much symapthy for the Obama style, a fellow who let the Clinton issues just slide into no problem status. For the new President he was like a case of pneumonia that lingers on adversely impacting health subtly for years.

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/448513/trump-james-comey-fbi-director-russia-investigation-fired-misleading-public

Though the influence of Reinhold Neihbur theologically speaking may not be too harmful on government officials, there are more theologians than Niebuhr Mr. Comey might have read if he sought to be an evangelist. It is interesting to consider the confluence of Niebuhr and Machiavelli's The Prince as well as Saul Alinsky in the Clinton-Obama line.

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2017/may-web-only/theology-of-james-comey-fbi-niebuhr-trump.html

Hillary Clinton's 92 page senior thesis 'There is Only the Fight' was on Alinsky's 'Rules for Radicals'. James Comey's feet were unfortunately close to that Chicago stream of leftist sludge that threw the middle class overboard along with Christian values.
