Pelosi-Schumer Axis of Foreign Collusion to Keep Southern Border Loose?
Speaker
Pelosi and Senator Schumer permanently wear rose colored glasses on
their Utopian vision for illegal entry to the United States. Border breakers are
regarded as motivated people seeking asylum to work hard for
Democratic leaders that with gratitude for mowing their lawns and
making their Democrat beds will vote for them for countless
generations.
Democrats
prefer to believe that 90% of those making illegal entries to the
U.S. are caught and the remainder are here to do the dirty jobs Nancy
Pelosi or Chuck Schumer wouldn't. They also believe they have no
effect on the minimum wage of $7.50 set by the U.S. government. That
has just gone up five bucks since 1972. Wall Street in the meanwhile
has risen from 850 to 23,000.
More
accuracy on border crossing of lightly defended areas about the
number that make it through ICE security might be enhanced with
networks of invisible laser beams counters such as might be used in
protecting valuable items from burglars. Democrats could at least
suggest such measures for better measurement metrics for an annual
better guesstimate of how many make it through. One realistic survey
estimate of the number apprehended as a percent of those making it
through is just 20 to 40%. Government bureaucrats have an historical
tendency to over-estimate the effectiveness of their programs.
Still,
that cannot account for the consistent unwillingness of the Democrats
to invest in real defense at the border vs theoretical defense with
trillions of dollars for existential threats against Russian
super-weapons and soldiery menacing the soft underbelly of The Soviet
European Union and shopping malls in the mid-west. After or if the
government returns to work the Mueller Mandate should
be expanded to include an investigation of Democrat leaders into
foreign collusion to keep southern border security loose.
Alternatively it is possible that Speaker Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are working a diabolic plan to keep the government partially closed simply to collect pay while not working. The Pelosi Speaker era may become known as the big recess. If government does little work it is possible they may do little harm so their is a bright spot in the dark cloud after all.

The Brexit Crash Seems Doomed to Success
The impending crash of organized Brexit leading to a no-deal exit of Britain from the Soviet European Union seems destined to lead Britain to better days. It seems like the great Y2K event that wasn't even a flatulent moment in the breeze (*except for 9-11 that occurred the next year). Maybe England should be concerned more with terrorist issues than economics that would sort themselves out ala' Adam Smith's invisible hand perhaps better without the binding rules of a vast left-wing union government that cannot even be confident of defending itself against the new Russia. Actually if the EU wasn't so klutzy they would be on good term with Russia. I suppose Bill Clinton helped with the poisoning of the post cold war quite a bit- yet where was the statesmanship of that continent when the Serbian conflicts arose and they were not forestalled or pre-empted.
Probably Britain is lucky not to be equally yoked with the inept at diplomacy and good at blaming EU than is possible as poor at the U.S.A. at foreign policy the better part of the time.

President Trump Gets His Share of Abuse from the Hate-o-crats- Emergency Declaration Soon?
President Trump may get ten billion or more to build border security barriers from national disaster money if he declares a national emergency. It is only an emergency in the sense that myocardial infarction is- it can go on for days (or months and years in the case of the wall) before causing death. Some tough guys can stand the pain indefinitely though its still an emergency. The nation loses jobs in construction and wages don't rise with a surfeit of illegal labor that pile into the back of a truck stopping on a corner in the south and increasingly across the nation. For the homeless that can't find work easily, it is an emergency though they too can survive.
Democrats should not have closed the government over 5 billion dollars- that was plain wrong. The authoritarians seem to want everything their own way, all the time, and cannot share government well while hating on the President as a four year plan.

A Terminal Velocity for the Rotational Speed of Black Holes?
Observations of super-massive black holes have discovered rotational velocity of as high as 84% of the speed of light. That raises innumerable interesting questions regarding the effects of special and general relativity on the black holes. Can they spin at light speed?
https://gizmodo.com/a-star-fell-into-a-black-hole-revealing-its-super-fast-1831653729
As an object approaches the speed of light its mass scales up toward infinite; so how does that pertain to the already super-massive black holes? Does the special relativistic effect of mass increasing and speed slow nearing light speed multiply the mass of black holes more than what it is for-itself? How much of the mass of a black hole can accelerate in proportion to the total mass?
Is the 84% of speed of light just at the event horizon and less so toward the center? How would the numerous differential rotational speeds and relativistic effects on mass affect the composition and structure of a black holes such that it would be non-uniform in space and time? Are their trans-finite infinities of mass in black holes subject to tensor quantification along the lines of Cantor sets?

Something Like a Sea of Glass
Stars like the sun convert themselves into crystal spheres given ten billion years more or less.
