Roger Stone and Louie Gohmert's flying squad will occupy the old Post Office in DC.
Ben Quayle's brigade will take and hold the 4 Courts area.

Antecdotal, peaches.
So it can't be as helpful as an article from Arstechnica, say, or Wired.
I disagree with your premise 1000% percent, roughly, by the way.
When this kook kriminal drumpf supporter was backing Santorum,
he was backing an Opus Dei politician, too.
100% disagree, brett.
This excuse that "he was just a 16 year old kid" is complete b.s.
He was 27 when his company's continued racist practices at taxpayer funded housing projects in Queens caused him to get sued by Nixon's DOJ. You had to be extra extra racist and crooked to get sued by Nixon for being a crooked racist.
He was 32 in '78, when his company got caught violating the consent decree they entered into with the DOJ, to settle the '73 racist discrimination suit. He was 36 when he got sued in New York state court for racist discriminatory housing practices at his properties in Queens, and 38 when they lost the case and were forced to settle, and he was a property owner and senior officer of the company at that time.

This story just says that, in addition to all the decades of paperwork and court filings showing his continuous racist practices at his taxpayer subsidized businesses, there is now an eyewitness coming forward who says publicly, openly, for the record, as a former employee, that this wasn't just Daddy Fred the klansman, li'l donnie was right there too, learning how to practice racist discrimination, fully involved, completely in favor of it, and on board with it.
Yep. I remember the group doing some pro-repug p.r. work during Iran Contra.
It was just Black, Manafort, Stone then, Kelly got added later. Doyle McManus article from the LA Times here:
http://articles.latimes.com/1986-09-02/news/mn-13459_1_capitol-hill
Sourcewatch calls B, M, S, and K "principals", and says Atwater was a "partner".
"Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly (Black, Manafort) was a Washington D.C. lobbying and political consulting firm started in 1982. In 1996, it it merged with Gold & Liebengood to form BKSH & Associates. In 2010, BKSH & Associates and Timmons and Company merged to form Prime Policy Group, a subsidiary of Burson-Marsteller Global Public Relations.[1][2]"
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Black,_Manafort,_Stone_and_Kelly
The BKSH group is Charlie Black and Peter Kelly merged with Skruggs and Healey.
Here's something from Al Franken's book The Truth:
" (Jack) Abramoff (College Republican National Committee Chair, 1981 - 85), (Grover) Norquist (CRNC Executive Director, 1981 - 83), and (Ralph) Reed (E.D., 1983 - 85) were following in the footsteps of Karl Rove, who had been E.D. from 1970 - 72 and national chair from 1973 - 74. Vast-right-wing-conspiracy trivia buffs might also be interested to know that Bush I henchman Lee Atwater managed Rove's first campaign for chairman." (P. 172, hardbound.)
Interesting that Ed Rollins is in the o.p. article bad mouthing Stone. Rollins, like Stone, got into hot water pulling illegal moves in New Jersey elections.
Cute little vignette from Sourcewatch's article on Charlie Black:
"Black's "ties with the Bush family go back to 1972, when he and Karl Rove were jockeying for control of the College Republicans in a campaign so dirty that George H.W. Bush, then head of the Republican National Committee, had to step in and sort matters out," reported Muriel Kane. [6]"

It's interesting to watch those different repug principal actors gouge and infight with each other, as they jockey for position and power. It's like watching piranhas snap at each other in a slow moving river. But they forget all about their differences in a split second when a normal person blunders into the water they infest.

The real dRumpf was replaced by a Russian operative that Putin
had plastic surgerized to look like dRumpf. They got everything right but the hair.
The real drumpf had a magificent luxurious mane of hair. That's the only way you can tell the Russkie operative apart from the actual patriotic, humane, liberal drumpf.
Many dRumpf campaign insiders are saying
that he keeps folding newspapers into Napoleon hat shapes and wearing them around campaign H.Q.
Conaway asked where does he keep getting those papers? Because no one around here reads papers.
Another staffer said the campaign had bought 50,000 copies of the Santa Barbara News-Press, and he keeps going down to the garage and getting a new one, after the old one gets confiscated.
Distressed staffers are trying to get rid of the bales of newspapers. They're especially dismayed by the way he sticks his tongue out of one side of his mouth, while he's wearing the hat.
When those 100,000 copies
of the Waxahachie Daily Light,
that the campaign ordered,
get shipped in,
the shit is really going to hit the fan.
But there's a no-refunds policy, so the delivery can't be cancelled.
Watch out for campaign panic, and mass desertions, when that shipment arrives.
I was mentally transposing the red v blue election map onto the posted map's red cloud affected area
Hence, my mention excepting the part of East TX that is under the cloud.
Back to square one, Tom.
Here's how it is:
Our intel agencies said it's from Putin. They didn't say "it's Alexei Romanoff, Yorge Barishnikof, Yuri Andropov, Natasha Filipnova, and Josef Raskolnikov, operating from the super secret star city KGB-GRU compound's bank of servers, coordinating with offshore hardware bank assets in Lichtenstein, Nigeria, and the Grand Caymans". So I can't say ''who are the Russians''.
The o.p. sez our intel agencies say it's Putin's people.
I sez I find their assessment to be extremely credible, and I'm speaking as a guy who can't manipulate jpeg s and png s on this site, but who knows how to read, remember, research, and analyze.
You sez my intel agencies were wrong about wmd s.
I sez the last repug admin, who dRumpf supported, from the same party dRumpf is leading now, is at fault for fake wmd intel. Period. The intel agencies weren't wrong, the repugs were purposefully lying. That's the same party that's running orange hitler for prez right now. Period.
You sez you and your buddies are Russian coders, you're in the know, and your source says "nuh uh."
I sez "nuh uh" back, as your allusion to your straight dope, from your inside source, right from the horses mouth, does not constitute proof.
You sez give me the names and locations of the Russian agents, please Mike.
I have to point out that this does not constitute an argument. It isn't a rational exchange of debate points.
Effectively speaking, we're both low volume post-ers, considering the amount of time we've been signed up to post on this site. My average is ~ 1 post/day, your average is ~ 1 post/month. But you're really blowing out the curve here, in terms of how much time you're spending and how many posts you're making, to discuss one issue, with one guy, in one day.
So, to sum it all up:
I like Russian people just fine. Any independent tech savvy Russians who are unaligned with the rightie nutjob ones the repugs have had around here since Lenin's takeover -- and unaligned with the "lefty" ones that are part of Putin's power structure, and unaligned with the mafiya which is part of Putin's power structure -- best wishes to them (or you.)
I don't always trust my country's intel services, but have to weigh what they say by using my own intelligence and diligent research and considered observation.
My country's intel apparatus isn't rattling the saber, the last repug prez little bush rattled the saber, his same political party is offering the ultimate saber rattler to be in charge of my country. And fuckhead Putin is rattling the saber, and you can see evidence of that all over this board if you'd bother reading it.
And dRump has a million connections to Putin, his state capitalist oligarchs, and Russian wiseguys who are hooked into Putin's power structure. You could see evidence of that all over this board, too, if you'd bother reading it. His connections involve Carter Page, Paul Manafort, Boris Epshteyn, Wendy Deng Murdoch, etcetera. He's got a million hinky financial deals with the big money people in your country, and Putin keeps pulling move after move to discredit the Dem admin here and threaten my country if we pick a Dem successor to Obama and don't pick the guy he likes. But "Vote drumpf, or ve wyiul nuke you" is not that persuasive, as a campaign endorsement.
The John Birch Society can be summed up simply: A lot of repugs in the US liked nazi hitler. They openly backed him before the war, some of them backed him during the war. After the war, they helped and used the help of his people. They always liked his ideas, and needed to rebrand their support of those ideas. So they invented the JBS in the '50's. It was founded on the idea that we should be on the same side as Hitler, attacking the evil commie russians, who were out to take over the world, so we shouldn't have fought hitler, we should have helped him fight Stalin, hitler "was right". Any effort that was ever made to help US citizens was part of an international communist plot, commies were taking over the US, and russians were with the Jews.
When you see some far right, right wing, really obviously crazy, cartoonishly thinking, and extremely stupid repug politico, that is a bircher. A key tip off is when they start talking about how every bad thing is the Jews' fault; when they say that, you know who they are. Those people are the mainstream of dRumpf's party now, they paved the way for it to nominate drumpf, they took the gop over and drove it towards the nazi right. One of their key propagandists is Infowar Jones, and he's long been in with the dRumpfenfuhrer campaign, up to his chubby little eyeballs. You could look info up about the birch org with the site's helpful search box, top right corner, and info about them is all over this board's archives, if you'd bother reading it.
So bearing all that foregoing info in mind, with it's many admonitions for you to just look those subjects up with the site's helpful search box, with all the time I spent laying it all out to you, here's the key point: Putin is in bed with dRumpf. The birchers are in bed with dRumpf. Therefore, the dRumpf campaign is continually showing you that Putin is in bed with the crazy anti commie nutcase Birchers. They both want the same thing.
When we first crossed paths, we did so because you object to the way I discuss the dRumpf campaign.
But all the info about his campaign provides the very answer you're seeking, when you plaintitively state that you have absolutely no idea how top commie Putin is in bed with zany anti-commie birchers. It's one of those "forest for the trees" issues, apparently.
As a p.s., I'd like to note:
Effectively speaking, the Russian mafiya is a combination of those old line tattooed guys from the gulags who are of some certain ethnic and regional types, and "ex" KGB GRU & military people, working hand in glove with oligarchs who had the connections needed to steal the commons from the citizens of your country. They function as an extra-legal enforcement arm for your gov and business interests, in a slightly different way than your intel groups do. (They're kissass kapos, bang beggars, assassins, they muscle the citizenry, provide black market vice-type pressure-release valves, suck profits out of the communities for their corporate masters; you know, standard mob stuff.)
dRumpf is a state capitalist oligarch here, he uses his connections to our wiseguys and russian mob people as an extra-legal enforcement arm for his governmental aspirations and business interests. (He seems to have representatives from 3/4 of the different main ethnic types of old line org crime groups involved in his campaign, he is missing the Greeks only, oddly. I'd also guess his coalition is missing the Cubans at this point, I don't know what the US reps of the triads or tongs are thinking, and I'd love to be a fly on the wall at any gathering of La Eme's southern shot callers who were discussing him, for reasons that I think are obvious.)
I've spent a bit more of my time "exchanging thoughts" with you on this issue, than I'd like to have, because you're providing only vaporous input. I always like to talk to people here, but apparently am either regarded as a big mouthed crazy agro agitator, or other post-ers are terrified that if they reply to me, I'll type a phone book back at them, which may be considered impolite, though I try for a polite tone, for the most part. I mean, it can't be my breath, or that I'm boring.
But you're not giving me any actual info that is verifiable, you're just making unsub claims and reqs for info, pleading lack of knowledge, putting a lot of columns of type into play with very little meat, and constantly coming back in such a manner as indicates that YOU could be a 400 lb guy on a bed somewhere, instead of an earnest buddy of white knight Russian hackers, and you think you're jagging me off to make me waste my time, trolling me just a teensy bit.
But actually, I never spend one second more than I feel like spending discussing an issue, whether or not I think the other person is trying to waste my time, so efforts to waste my time, then say ''ha ha, i trolled you'' are as effective as Putin's campaign endorsement of drumpfenfuhrer.
