Theresa May Comes Tantalising Close To Telling Donald Trump What She Really Thinks
http://www.esquire.co.uk/culture/news/a18760/theresa-may-comes-tantalising-close-to-telling-donald-trump-what-she-really-thinks/So far falling short of cancelling his sort-of state visit - a source of national dread second only to Brexit - May has issued a statement saying "it is wrong for the President to have done this".
The moment when May finally cracks, Ned Flanders-style, and tells Trump, Boris, her own party and the millions of voters who doomed her to presiding over the worst mess in British political history exactly what she thinks of them is surely edging ever nearer.
The irony is if she did that, she'd probably become the most popular politician in Britain.
Do it Theresa. Just do it.

How bad was Ron Ziegler (for Nixon) ? I don't remember
I know he was bad, but was he AS BAD as SHS ?

you nailed it on the first post
He could run around on the White House lawn baying at the moon naked, and the Republicans in Congress would say, "oh well that's just Trump"

Her latest lame attempt to defend the Nazi-in-Chief
Of course Faux, WND, et al will never boycott her.
Should the media totally boycott Goebbels-in-pearls ?

76.42 °N, well into the Arctic. Almost into December. The temperature here should much lower right now.
One place that maintains its sanity is sub-arctic Siberian Russia: -39.5 °F at Ekspeditsionnaya ulitsa IMIRNYY2

62.5 N latitude
At -27F, Old Crow, Yukon, Canada also maintains its sanity. 67.57 °N

Any Windows 10 device that includes Hyper-V hypervisor can now turn on HVCI, a powerful mitigation against kernel exploits. This method uses a WDAC/config CI audit policy to enable HVCI.
MS document here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/device-security/enable-virtualization-based-protection-of-code-integrity
This is all new to me. I'll have to read up on it.

The UK has offered a larger potential "divorce bill" to the EU - which could be worth up to 50bn euros (£44bn), the BBC understands.
There has been no final agreement on a number but the offer was given a "broad welcome" by Brussels, BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg said.
No 10 has played down reports the final figure could be up to 55bn euros (£49bn).
The offer was communicated to Brussels after last week's cabinet meeting.

CNN's Don Lemon tore into President Trump on Monday night for calling Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) "Pocahontas" during an event honoring Native American Code Talkers.
On CNN, Lemon showed a past clip of Trump telling Lemon he is "the least racist person that you have ever met."
“Just because you say you’re not racist, doesn’t make it so,” Lemon said after playing the clip.
“Especially if you say, do and defend racist behavior over and over and over again. Especially if you have lost your credibility by telling countless lies, big and small.”
