Deplorables behaving badly……

Same song, different disaster…
Red Cross Exec Doesn't Know What Portion Of Donations Go To Harvey Relief
Here's an article in the Houston Chronicle listing several alternatives to the Red Cross. I made my final donation to the Red Cross many years ago. I don't even recall specifically why, but it was after some disclosure of their lack of accountability.
Hurricane Harvey: How to help victims of the Texas storm
I feel bad about Harvey's carnage. But I have limited funds available for charitable contributions and prefer to support my fav charities here in Colorado.
Whatever.
I find perfection to be an elusive quality and will donate to the red cross in need. When Jesus comes back at the head of an army of 10,000 angels, I will know that we imperfect humans at least held the line before the rapture.
Reality check. You can't wait for a disaster tohappen and then respond..you need stockpiles of stuff in advance. Funds donated after a flood replenish the reserves and pay for ongoing relief. So, the bookkeeping is complicated. But otherwise, thousands of people would die while doofuses wandered around questioning the motives of those trying to help.
Haven't read it but here's HickensichCare…
John Hickenlooper, Ohio Gov. John Kasich release their bipartisan plan to address health care
What would be really fascinating is if Hick just managed to give Kasich cover on his particularly right-wing past.
Here's a little friendlier version of the letter than the embedded one in the Post article.
Just what Congress and Trump need to do. Go back and revisit health care before getting to the debt ceiling, tax reform and the wall. He always said he had unbound STAMINA.
From the Washington Post's ticker:
Another bad sheriff bites the dust:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2017/08/31/david-a-clarke-jr-resigns-as-milwaukee-county-sheriff/?pushid=59a87eafd4ac501c00000007&tid=notifi_push_breaking-news&utm_term=.7fb9bfad6d07
Clarke is no loss. I wonder why he resigned, though…the WaPo article you cited doesn't say. Clarke is up to his neck in Russian poop, – which is probably why he couldn’t get a security clearance and never was hired into Trump’s cabinet- Sheriff Clarke went on a privately paid trip to Moscow for an NRA convention, and may have received certain favors in return for being Trump's One Black Friend.
It may be that Mueller's investigations into Trump's financial dealings are what made Clarke nervous enough to resign – that, and his ongoing scandals with abuse and neglect of inmates in custody, his plagiarism, and the siren call of becoming a right wing media star.
You mean, hadn’t been hired yet? Here’s the other shoe. This isn’t my favorite source, but when covering the far right, it’s kind of the horse’s mouth: http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/david-clark-milwaukee-sheriff/2017/08/31/id/810988/
Here's something to warm Moderatus' cold capitalist heart…..

The free market in action! Can you feel that invisible hand doing its magic yet?
I wonder if he is one of those constitutional sheriffs…..

Did Moderatus really call them our last line of defense the other day?
And yet another example of what happens when we eliminate necessary health and safety regulations…..

I can hear Moldy now: liberals and their job-killing regulations. More freedom, less government.
You what else kills jobs: chemical plant explosions.
No, Donald. Of course I'm not planning for a 2020 presidential run.
