#3 Well I don't need it. I was at two job interviews this week --- for school teacher position, and one of the first questions they ask is if I have a police certificate that I'm not a sex offender (only for males - female teachers don't need them).

#4 The news that the CIA is pining hacking on the Russians has really muddied the waters. I kinda doubt we will ever know the truth, without a major Deepthroat.

#6 I wonder if this is projection from dems worried about Obama's imminent hacking investigation.

#7 @#3: I am truly gobsmacked at this "police certificate" requirement.

Is the expectation that, upon reaching xx years of age, all males must present themselves to the local PD to get their "papers?"

Chilling.

#8 It's Max Boot:
In general, Boot considers himself to be a "natural contrarian".[30] He identifies as a ~~black woman~~ conservative, once joking that "I grew up in the 1980s, when conservatism was cool".[2] He is in favor of limited government at home and American leadership abroad. He strongly opposed Trump's presidential candidacy in 2016[31[32] and has been highly critical of the Republican Party.[33]]

#9 Only if you want to work with children, Vast. But, the point is, only for male teachers.

#11 female teachers don't need them

That'll make for quite a few happy high school boys.

#13 Trump appears petrified of what such a probe would reveal. Wonder why?

As per usual Boot is long on innuendo and short on insight. Say for the sake of argument there is a "Kremlingate" as he puts it. Notice, he never actually suggests what nefarious activities may have occurred or how they changed events? That's because the anticlimactic answer would reveal what is already known. That is a presumably foreign entity hacked into the DNC server and HRC staff email. They then leaked information proving the Democrats primary was rigged and Clinton had lied about her private server and pay-for-play as SoS. The damage was to HRC not for DJT. No amount of collusion could have changed that outcome.

#14 Max Boot is another pundit I was enjoyed, when he talked about foreign policy and war. Now it doesn't seem as if his judgement is all that solid. Makes me sad.

#15 I think that appointing a special councel to investigate who signed the warrant to investigate Trump in August and what was its contents and what was the reason for its denial, if any of these things happened. Also it would be nice to discover the sources of the leaks to the press of an ongoing government investigation of the Trump campaign. A prosecutor as persistent as Fitzgerald in his pursuit of Libby after knowing Libby had nothing to do with the leak to Novak (a journalist was jailed for months by him) might ferret out interesting things.
Trey Gowdy would do a good job at this.
That justice department officials thought it appropriate to have government resources investigate the candidate for presidency of the out party has an unpleasant odor to it.

Yeah. But that movie about his brother, Das, is still a classic.

#19 Frau Schnorkel was not at all snooty:
She lived in an undersea bootie,
Fed "children" on bread
In her cabin (bright red!)
And insisted the crew call her "Muti."
