Updates

November 1, 2017: from President Trump this morning, via Twitter -- The terrorist came into our country through what is called the "Diversity Visa Lottery Program," a Chuck Schumer beauty. I want merit based. 

Original Post
 
It is amazing how fast CNBC is calling the most recent incident in downtown NYC a "terrorist" event. Less than an hour or two old and they are already calling it a "terrorist" event. Ah, yes, yelling "allahu, akbar." Six killed; more injured. Hopefully, he/she did not recently fly in from a country that President Trump wanted to put on the no-entry list but "vetoed" by a west coast / Hawaiian judge. The "person of interest" is a Uzbek national here on a "diversity visa." The "diversity visa" program was begun in 1990, the brainchild of the senior senator of New York, Senator Chuck Schumer. It's lottery program -- folks from around the world apply on-line and then are selected via  lottery. Apparently, this "person of interest" came over nine years ago, but apparently there is no process or requirement for returning them to their home country. They get a "green card" and can stay in the US indefinitely.

Patriotism

These folks STAND for the US national anthem, and they don't even live here:

This must have made the Yahoo!Finance editors very uncomfortable posting:

Wow, On A Completely Different Note

... I just posted a comment at a story regarding Kevin Spacey, and now Rush Limbaugh begins his third hour with a monologue on Kevin Spacey. At same time that Netflix has suspended production of "House of Cards." Love it. [Update, November 4, 2017: Kevin Spacey is in "free fall." Everybody has abandoned him. I thought Harvey Weinstein fell fast; with Kevin's fall, I have to re-calibrate the "plummet meter."]

Sin City

I loved "Sin City" (Quentin Tarantino) but Rush Limbaugh is exactly right -- how Hollywood portrays African-Americans and women. With regard to Harvey Weinstein, note the "anxious" laugh track.
