Spoiler alert: if you are or were a fan of GOT, read no further. The article below shows a fatal mistake that destroys the GOT illusion. My heart goes out to Jon Snow and Daenerys, both of whom will be crushed by fan defections. -------- -------- https://www.aol.com/article/entertainmen...ge-mistake/23722123/ Sharp-eyed ‘Game of Thrones’ viewers just spotted a huge mistake HuffPost US Ed Mazza May 6th 2019 7:39AM Eagle-eyed “Game of Thrones” fans noticed something very wrong in Sunday night’s episode, and it had nothing to do with death and betrayal. It was something that resembled a coffee cup. More specifically, a Starbucks cup. Looks like the company’s ubiquitous shops have even gained a foothold in Westeros. | |

Freddie, it's wonderful to see your smiling face. PU has been like a desert without your presence. Of course you need holidays to charge up your batteries, but when you leave us, the light above seems to dim. Maybe you can have the tech team post a smiling avatar of yourself, so us mortals can gain strength and courage from knowing you are out there somewhere, waiting to return. Darling girl, we missed you.  | |

Real news: President Trump uses the clenched fist to slam the opponents who are dragging down America. Trump promises he will piss on the graves of the criminals and immoral lawbreakers like Hillary Clinton and John McCain, traitors to the glorious heritage of the United States of America. Trump urges all loyal Americans to burn down the homes and properties of those Commie-loving slimeball Democrats, who should burn in hell. And Trump promises to give out pardons to all right-thinking cops who gun down the criminals on our streets. Cinco de Mayo is the day we must put on our white hoods and carry our AK-47s and AR-15s and march on Los Angeles and New York City and take back the lands the Commie liberals have stolen from us. God bless America. God bless Donald Trump. | |

Real news: Trump supports the right of free speech. If you want to call a criminal a scumbag Democrat that should burn in hell, you have every right, says Trump. He wants everyone to have the right to say "Fuck you, pig" to disliked neighbors. It's the American way to show support for the flag, and to bring America closer together. Our Father, who Art in Heaven, Glory be Thy Name, and let us worship at the side of Donald Trump. -------- -------- Trump tweets support for far-right activists Facebook banned New York Daily News Dave Goldiner May 4th 2019 3:15PM Get ready for the Don vs. Mark smackdown. President Trump slammed Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook for banning several far-right figures — and took a shot at the mainstream media for what he calls its #FakeNews falsehoods. In an early morning tweet spree, Trump twice retweeted hate-spewing YouTube personality Paul Joseph Watson, who complained that the social media giant is muzzling him for being politically incorrect. The online outburst came on top of Trump’s late Friday tweets complaining that #MAGA-backing actor James Wood should not have been banned from the platform. He said the White House would “monitor” Facebook’s actions, which he suggested infringe on freedom of speech. Facebook on Thursday cracked down on hate speech by banning Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan and InfoWars chief Alex Jones, whose site traffics in conspiracy theories like the claim that the Sandy Hook massacre never happened. Far-right-wing haters such as Laura Loomer and ex-Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulis were also given the boot by the site and its partner, Instagram. The move was a big shift for Zuckerberg who earlier defended the rights of Holocaust deniers and other hate merchants to remain on Facebook. | |

Real news versus the fake news reported by Fox news: Trump and Putin discussed the Mueller report. Putin praises Trump for standing firm and denying guilt and collusion. Trump asks for raise from Putin for doing such a great job taking money from the lower class and middle class and giving it to the rich. Putin says Trump is a genius, almost as good as Adolf Hitler, in spreading lies about his enemies. Putin promises Trump that if Russia sends nuclear warheads into America, they will try to avoid areas where Trump's golf courses are located, so Trump should feel safe from any nuclear attacks. Trump spokeswoman Sarah Sanders tells reporters that President Trump, unlike former President Obama, takes threats of foreign interference in US elections seriously. Obama was a wimp, who let foreign countries disrupt US elections. Trump is a hero, who safeguards the right of Americans to vote freely. --------- --------- Trump, Putin discussed Mueller report and agreed no collusion, White House says NBC News Dartunorro Clark May 3rd 2019 4:11PM President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke Friday and both agreed "there was no collusion" between Moscow and Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said. Sanders said that the two briefly discussed special counsel Robert Mueller's report "essentially in the context of that it's over and there was no collusion." She added that she was "pretty sure both leaders were very well aware of (the Mueller report's finding) long before this call took place" because it was "something we've said for the better part of two and a half years." When asked if they also discussed election meddling by Russia that Mueller detailed in his report, she said that the administration is committed to securing American elections and blasted the Obama administration for not taking action in 2016. "This administration, unlike the previous one, takes election meddling seriously," she said. | |

Real news, or fake news? Is my dream girl off the market? Or is she still available? Article says the couple got married in Las Vegas. And exchanged ring pops instead of wedding bands. So, was the ceremony real, or fake? Enquiring minds want to know. ------- ------- Surprise! Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner Get Married in Las Vegas by McKenna Aiello | Wed., May. 1, 2019 10:16 PM How's this for the shotgun wedding of a lifetime?! Less than two hours after the 2019 Billboard Music Awards concluded, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner headed to a Las Vegas wedding chapel to tie the knot. Yes, that's right. E! News can confirm the Jonas Brothers member and Game of Thrones star are officially husband and wife after obtaining a marriage license on Wednesday, May 1. Fans first caught wind of the longtime couple's nuptials when Diplo began posting footage from the impromptu ceremony. In several moments posted to the DJ's Instagram Stories, 23-year-old can be seen walking down the aisle in a white bridal ensemble and veil. It appeared as if an Elvis Presley impersonator officiated the ceremony as country music duo Dan + Shay performed their hit song "Speechless." After exchanging vows, the newly minted husband and wife swapped ring pops instead of wedding bands—naturally. Earlier in the evening, Joe reunited with brothers Nick Jonas and Kevin Jonas for an epic performance of their latest single "Sucker." Sophie was joined by now sisters-in-law Priyanka Chopra and Danielle Jonas in the front row of the MGM Grand Arena in Sin City. The couple announced their engagement in Oct. 2017 after more than a year together. "I'm still like, Holy s--t! I'm engaged," Sophie admitted to Marie Claire last year. "There's this weird misconception that being married is the greatest thing that'll ever happen to you. But I've always found that my career is something I work for, and when I achieve something, there's a sense that this is the greatest thing I'll do in my life. It's lovely to be engaged. Not like I achieved anything, but I found my person, like I'd find a house that I love and want to stay in forever. There's a sense of peace that comes with finding your person. But there's a drive that comes with your career." Joe Jonas, Sophie Turner, Hockey Game There's a strong chance Joe and Sophie might hold a more official, extravagant wedding celebration in the near future, especially since the bride's BFF and bridesmaid Maisie Williams didn't appear to attend tonight's gathering. "We're going to have a flag rugby game at the wedding, and a flag football game," Joe recently shared on The Late Late Show, referencing a ceremony that's rumored to take place in France over the summer. "So if all the groomsmen show up with black eyes and broken arms, I'll be very proud." At least this time around, what happens in Vegas certainly doesn't stay there. Congratulations to the happy couple! | |

Real news: Attorney General William Barr stands up for the independence of the Executive Branch from Congressional Oversight. Says Congress has no authority to demand what the Executive Branch does. Tells Congress to fuck off. ------- ------- Barr calls Mueller's letter 'a bit snitty,' but won't give Senate notes from call Yahoo News David Knowles May 1st 2019 8:35PM Attorney General William Barr refused Wednesday to turn over his notes on a conversation he had with Robert Mueller during which the special counsel complained about Barr’s summary of his report about Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and Donald Trump’s attempts to cover it up. “No,” Barr responded when asked by Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., if he would provide the Senate Judiciary Committee with the notes he took to document the call with Mueller. “Why not?” Blumenthal responded. “Why should you have them?” Barr answered. Barr’s defiance came at the end of a contentious day of testimony during which Democratic members of the committee accused the attorney general of the United States of lying. Republican committee members, meanwhile, sought to shift the focus of the hearing to what they described as corruption in the FBI during the 2016 campaign. Moments before the tense exchange, Barr derisively described a March 27 letter by Mueller objecting to Barr’s summary of his report. The four pages released by Barr “did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance of this office’s work and conclusions,” Mueller wrote. The phone call Blumenthal was asking about was a follow-up to Mueller’s letter. “The letter’s a bit snitty and I think it was probably written by one of his staff people,” Barr said. “Snitty,” the adjective form of “snit,” means agitated or annoyed. Throughout his testimony Wednesday, Barr deflected responsibility to Mueller for the decision not to charge Trump with obstruction of justice. Democrats on the committee said Mueller’s interactions with Barr show that the attorney general had provided political cover for the White House. Barr’s notes of his conversation with Mueller, they believe, could shed light on that issue. If Barr’s appearance before the committee made anything clearer, it was that Mueller would soon be asked for his version of events. “I’m going to write a letter to Mr. Mueller and I’m going to ask him is there anything you said about that conversation that he disagrees with,” committee chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said before adjourning the hearing. But on his way out, in response to a question, Graham said he had no plans to call another hearing for Mueller to testify in public. "I'm not going to do any more. Enough already. It's over." | |

'Avengers: Endgame' Decimates Record Books with $1.2 Billion Global Debut Endgame fails miserably at the box office. Almost all the stars of the movie will be forced to retire from acting, after being awarded multiple Razzie trophies. But fear not: for Josh Brolin, the anti-hero of the movie, has revealed that in spite of negative press on his acting, he is going to be doing another Sicario movie, this time where he saves the world by bringing down a corrupt Donald Trump, the secret head of the illegal opioid drug trade in the United States.

Real news: not the fake news put out by Fox News: A Brazilian parrot was taken into custody after warning suspected drug dealers that cops were nearby. No news yet if the parrot was offered a deal for a reduced sentence, or if prosecutors are seeking the death penalty because the parrot might have a previous record of criminal behavior. The lead prosecutor handling the case said if the parrot is willing to sing, the state might allow the bird to fly away. ---------------- ---------------- Parrot taken into custody after alerting drug dealers about cops. Justin Chan, AOL.com Apr 25th 2019 5:36PM Brazilian authorities took a parrot into custody after it alerted suspected drug dealers of cops nearby, according to the Guardian. The bird was seized on Monday afternoon after police descended on a drug den in Vila Irmã Dulce, a low-income neighborhood in northeast Brazil. The unidentified parrot allegedly warned the couple that ran the shack by shouting, "Mama, the police!" in Portuguese, Brazilian broadcaster Globo notes. "He must have been trained for this," a policeman who took part in the operation said. "As soon as the police got close he started shouting." Police were still able to arrest the pair. In the process, they recovered drugs — including crack and marijuana — and large amounts of cash, according to NBC. Cops were less successful, however, in getting the parrot to cooperate after it was taken to "jail." "Lots of police officers have come by and he's said nothing," Alexandre Clark, a local veterinarian, said. One thing is for sure: the parrot won't have to worry about ever being a "jailbird." After being captured, the bird was taken to a local zoo, where it will spend three months learning to fly before being released in the wild, Globo reports. | |

President Trump confesses to the nation: I am innocent. Crooked Hillary Clinton is a criminal who belongs in prison. The scumbag Democrats hate me, even though I am struggling to make America great again. My Father, who art in Heaven, will send his angels down to smite the heathen Democrats and unleash the fires of Hell upon their thieving, conniving souls. May God have mercy on my enemies, because I sure as hell won't. ------------- ------------- Trump: Mueller report 'didn't lay a glove on me' Yahoo News Dylan Stableford Apr 24th 2019 10:41AM President Trump continues to claim exoneration from special counsel Robert Mueller's report, while simultaneously attacking it, as Democrats debate whether the accounts of Trump's repeated attempts to interfere with the probe justify pursuing his impeachment. "The Mueller Report, despite being written by Angry Democrats and Trump Haters, and with unlimited money behind it ($35,000,000), didn’t lay a glove on me," Trump tweeted early Wednesday. "I DID NOTHING WRONG." That followed by 48 hours a retweet by the president of Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Tex., about Mueller’s “disreputable, twisted history,” describing the investigation as an attempted “coup against a lawfully elected president.” Mueller’s two-year investigation concluded that the Russian government interfered in the 2016 election “in sweeping and systemic fashion.” A redacted version of Mueller's report released last week found no conspiracy between Russia and Trump’s campaign. But it chronicled at least 10 episodes of efforts by Trump to obstruct the federal probe. And while the special counsel declined to charge Trump with obstruction of justice, investigators explicitly refused to exonerate the president. “If we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state,” the report explained. “We are unable to reach that judgment. The evidence we obtained about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.” The findings have spurred calls by several top Democrats, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., to pursue Trump's impeachment. But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is urging caution, saying she wants to see Mueller's full unredacted report and hear testimony from current and former members of the Trump administration before considering it. “Impeachment is one of the most divisive forces, paths that we could go down to in our country,” Pelosi said Tuesday. “But if the path of fact-finding takes us there, we have no choice.” Trump warned that such a move would lead to a legal battle. "If the partisan Dems ever tried to Impeach, I would first head to the U.S. Supreme Court," Trump tweeted. "Not only are there no 'High Crimes and Misdemeanors,' there are no Crimes by me at all. All of the Crimes were committed by Crooked Hillary, the Dems, the DNC and Dirty Cops - and we caught them in the act! We waited for Mueller and WON, so now the Dems look to Congress as last hope!" "No Collusion, No Obstruction - there has NEVER been a President who has been more transparent," he continued. "Millions of pages of documents were given to the Mueller Angry Dems, plus I allowed everyone to testify, including W.H. counsel. I didn’t have to do this, but now they want more." Trump added: "Congress has no time to legislate, they only want to continue the Witch Hunt, which I have already won. They should start looking at The Criminals who are already very well known to all. This was a Rigged System - WE WILL DRAIN THE SWAMP!" | |

Porn discounts to celebrate Holy Week is symbolic of the rising of the body. Very appropriate, in my humble opinion. The only thing missing, is President Trump giving a national speech glorifying grabbing women by the pussy. And then Brett Kavanaugh can tell how in his high school and college days, he forced himself on unwilling women, to show how manly Brett really is. Trump and Kavanaugh, leaders of the Moral Majority to honor women. Edited on Apr 24, 2019, 01:28am | |

Fake news: Now that I've revealed the ending of Game of Thrones, shall I reveal the end of Spartacus Unending? This is the highest rated TV show of the current season. Starring rearadmiral in his first hardcore adult role, as well as our very own Shen, who is able to use the cables exiting from his head to zap alluring females into climatic paroxysms of uncontrollable lust. There will be a special appearance by Freddie, who uses her hidden powers of the Blue Avatar to fight for truth, justice, and the American way of life (she is migrating from Canada to the blue shores of California). The plot is still under wraps, so I can't reveal all the details of the upcoming episodes, except to say, that Steven Spielberg and Guillermo del Toro are in a fierce bidding war for rights to distribute the series worldwide. | |

Spoiler alert: Arya falls in love with the Night King (he is not only handsome, but powerful, which are qualities she admires). They have lots of White Walker babies. To protect her babies, Arya warns Jon Snow and Daenerys and Sansa to stay out of the way, because Arya is now the true Queen of the Five Kingdoms. Jon Snow, Daenerys and Sansa don't listen to Arya, which is their mistake. Arya's babies, trained in the way of White Walker and No-man killing teachings, hunt and kill Jon Snow, Daenerys and Sansa, because blood is thicker than water, especially when the blood is frozen. There is a great feast to celebrate when the Night King and Arya and their children invite all the nobles of the 5 kingdoms, which ends in a glorious blood bath of those nobles who refuse to bend the knee to the new ruling family. End of story. What a great ending. | |

I think you were lucky that the debt collection agency stopped harassing you so easily. I had a contract with DSL Extreme (they were bought out by AT&T). I was in the hospital and then a nursing home for a couple of months. So my contract expired, then was re-newed automatically while I was in the nursing home. When I got out, I explained to DSL Extreme that I was in a nursing home, and that I hadn't used the service. And that I wanted to cancel the monthly fee. They turned over my current bill to a collection agency immediately. I sent letters to the collection agency, telling them I had been in a nursing home, and hadn't used the internet service. They asked for proof I was in a nursing home. I gave them proof. They said it didn't matter: I still owed the bill (I think it was around $50). So I paid the bill to the collection agency. But I've heard stories that collection agencies can hound you for years, if you don't pay old bills. What surprised me was how fast DSL Extreme turned over my bill to a collection agency. Because I was talking to several of their agents, telling my story, and bing: I got a bill from the collection agency, without DSL Extreme telling me the account was turned over to the collection agency. | |

Freddie, you are a sweet talking woman. The 2019 Update for Porn Users covers a lot of ground. And it would require a lot of time and effort to actually put into practice some of the proposed changes. On a practical basis, does the PU staff have the time needed to update the Sites Not Listed thread every 2 weeks, with the status of each request? I'm not trying to criticize, but do you realize how much work that would take, and has the PU staff allocated enough work-hours to accomplish that work? I'm assuming this means all new site requests going forward, will be treated as suggested. Because the older requests would be a nightmare to follow up on. Wishing you well. But I'm still waiting for your avatar, you sweet-talking woman.  PS: No major technology changes planned. The staff or owner/operator needs to bite the bullet and get a capable software engineer to re-write the software code for the site, to make the site more responsive, with less bugs. Probably a large task, but once done, if done properly, the site should be easier to manage. That seems easier than constantly tinkering with an out-dated system that the PU staff has admitted is causing problems your tech team can't handle properly. My apologies if I'm being harsh. This is not directed at you personally, you're the messenger, passing along the message. I do appreciate the work you are doing. Edited on Apr 10, 2019, 10:03am | |

If the technology is old, would it make sense to get your programmers to re-write the code managing the site in a more modern, easier-to-maintain-and-update language? I'm sure it would take a lot of work. But once done, maintaining and updating the site should be much easier. Unless the conversion was done with a lot of new bugs. Sometimes porn sites update the structure of site, and it it a good thing, making the site easier to use and navigate. Sometimes, the update brings its own problems, making the site harder to use, because the software guys seem to forget about the customers using the site, and seem to design it for themselves, without realizing that customers are the ones that pay to use the site, and we don't have the control to fix issues that the programmers fuck up, that make using the site more difficult to use. But there should be software languages that are easy to code and maintain, that can make the PU site more responsive. Once you get past the massive amount of work needed to write the code in the first place. Or is that a fantasy, and it's too much trouble and expense, to update the PU site with new coding in a newer language that is easy to update and maintain. A simple answer would be best. Talk to your software people, and give us an answer, please. But PU staff keep repeating the code is old and difficult to maintain. So why not re-design the site with a newer language, that would be easier to maintain? That has fewer bugs in it? | |

Years ago, I had some problem where I was experiencing a lot of pain, and wasn't sure what the cause was. So I went to the emergency room of a hospital. I saw a doctor, and he admitted me to the hospital. The hospital transferred me to a different room after I was admitted. I was given a few medicines. Then a nurse told me I was going to be transferred to a different room. The nurse told me the charge to transfer to a different room would be $2000. I said I didn't have that kind of money, and I said I wanted to be discharged from the hospital. So I had to sign papers that I was leaving the hospital against doctor's orders. I was in the hospital for about 12 hours. This was all in the same day. The hospital bill was about $9,000. I was given 3 aspirin (regular aspirin, without any codeine or other addititives), and the bill I got in the mail was, $8.00 for each aspirin pill. This was regular aspirin, mind you. The kind that you can buy for about $5 for a bottle of 100 pills. I was given some other medicine, $430 charge. I asked an outside pharmacist what the same medicine would cost, he said about $50. The $9,000 charge was from the hospital, it didn't include doctor's fees, which were separate. So, unless you have complete medical coverage, it's very easy to be bankrupt from medical bills. I didn't have any operation or any surgical procedure. Just being observed. But $9,000 for 12 hours in a hospital. And if they had transferred me to a different room, the charge would have been another $2,000 (the nurse told me). There's no way an average person can afford medical care, without insurance or some other coverage. I think this happened around 2003. So the prices would be much higher today. Because every year there is inflation: even if the US government figures don't show how much prices are really going up. | |

Dead man's family bring dead man back to Canada to avoid US healthcare costs. This is terrible. The man died, and his family, instead of filling out the paperwork and paying whatever the US costs were, decided to drive the man's body back to Canada. However, Canadian officials found the dead man's body, and are investigating: should the dead man be returned to the US, where he died? Or should the man be buried or cremated in Canada, where the wild moose roam free? What are the wishes of the dead man: to be buried in the country of his citizenship? Or--to be buried in America, where President Trump, our glorious leader, is making America great again? We have PU members who should respond with their thoughts on the issue: if they come to America (America is the land of the free, unlike Canada, which, as President Trump has pointed out, is a threat to US national security), and they happen to die in our great land, should the remains stay in America or be shipped back to Canada? Or maybe shipped to Mexico, where the funeral costs might be lower still? Enquiring minds want to know: Is Canada an ally of the US, or a security threat, with people coming down to the US because they want to die in the land of the free? ---------- ---------- Canadian family drove home with dad's dead body to avoid U.S. healthcare costs: officials Alex Lasker, AOL.com Apr 8th 2019 11:17AM A Canadian family caught driving home from the U.S. with their dead relative in the back seat was allegedly trying to avoid the cost and hassle of bringing him to an American hospital. Louis Drapeau, a 60-year-old Quebec man, was traveling back home from Florida with his two elderly parents when his 87-year-old father, Louis, died of a suspected heart attack, the Journal de Montreal reports. Drapeau's son and wife decided to bring his body home by themselves in order to avoid the high cost of American health care and repatriation, according to the Toronto Sun. Border agents at the Mooers, New York-Hemmingford, Quebec crossing found the man's body around 2:30 a.m. on March 31. At that point, responding paramedics said he had already been dead for about two days. The man's son and his wife, both of whom reportedly appeared distraught during the incident, fully cooperated with officials, who were stunned by the discovery. "This is never seen," Pierre Fortin, the president of the Customs and Immigration Union, said of the case, according to the Journal de Montreal. The incident remains under investigation. An autopsy will be conducted, although foul play is not suspected. | |

Fake news: Trump declares national emergency: sends US military troops into civilians homes in Southern California, with orders to shoot to kill any rebels who are traitors to his goal of making America great again. Trump, the man who wants to re-write the US Constitution so his family can control our Manifest Destiny of Free, White America. We must be strong and deport the Mexican rapists and other people of low moral character from the shores of our great land. Only then can we be safe to sleep in our beds at night, without an AK-47 by our side. Trump is pushing his friend and ally Vladimir Putin to send boatloads of AK-47 to the US so American citizens (White, not brown or black or some other mongrel strain) can defend their freedoms with strength, integrity, and the power of the Russian-made AK-47. | |

Lock Trump up! He is a criminal who needs to be punished. Lock him up! Trump paid for sex. Trump paid to hide his sexual activity. Those are illegal acts. The women can be prosecuted for prostitution. Trump can be prosecuted for paying for sex. Both charging for sex, and paying for sex, are criminal acts under the legal system. Change Trump's residence from the White House to the Jail House, and make America great again. -------------------------------------- Four women were arrested for allegedly running an all-female high-end prostitution ring that spanned three states, including California. By Greg Lee Friday, April 5th, 2019 11:24PM ANAHEIM, Calif. (KABC) -- The Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force announced that four people were arrested this week related to a yearlong investigation into a high-end prostitution ring. Authorities said the all-female run escort service stretched through Utah, Nevada and California. It involved more than 50 women who are now deemed victims of human trafficking. "In the e-mails, the conversations between them, the amount of pressure and duress that's put one them, they just wont' tell us, puts them in bad situations," said Sgt. Juan Reveles with the O.C. Human Trafficking Task Force. "This is pure exploitation of women by women for financial gain." Investigators said Jodi Leigh Hoskins is the president of a company called Companions. We're told that customers would make contact with girls using the website or by phone at call centers in Santa Ana and Palm Springs. "We took massive amounts of documents, massive amounts of phones and computers, I'm going to assume that somewhere there are going to be client lists, whether they should be worried or not, I'll leave that up to the customers," If convicted, the four women all face significant prison time for charges like pimping and pandering. Authorities have seized hundreds of thousands of dollars. "You don't have to be a rocket scientist to read between the lines. It's as if they were just flaunting it in public," said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer. The Human Trafficking Task Force said this is an ongoing investigation, and they're looking for more victims as well as the possibility of prosecuting the customers. | |

Mountain Dew reveals GOT kill list can. To support Trump's Neo-Nazi past, Mountain Dew has created a can that tells its followers the names of Trump's hit list: Anyone assassinating one of the named victims will get a free get-out-of-jail pardon from President Trump, and a special, Republican-funded gift of $4,999 cash (payout in US bills, or the foreign currency of their choice). Trump has tweeted the offer to his billions of followers throughout the United States, and even to his followers in the shithole countries of Africa and other subhuman countries that realize that Trump is God's gift to the human race. Trump uber alles!!! -------- -------- Mountain Dew partners with Migos, Joel Embiid and others to release 'Game of Thrones' inspired can Tatiana Pile, AOL.com Apr 5th 2019 12:16PM From costume parties to major festivals, there's no denying HBO's hit series 'Game of Thrones' has had a significant cultural impact since its inception. And ahead of the final season's premiere on April 14, many brands are wishing the show goodbye with fun campaigns -- but Mountain Dew is making the ultimate sacrifice. The soda company announced it's removing its iconic neon green 'face' and replacing it with a stark white, brandless can for its limited-run A Can Has No Name campaign. Inspired by one of fan's favorite characters, Arya Stark, the faceless can reveals her kill list when chilled. | |

President Trump tweets his is no longer besties with Robert Mueller. Even though Attorney General William Barr wrote a non-summary of the Mueller report, Trump has tweeted that Mueller and the sneaky Democrats are trying to smear Trump: Trump, the most honest, loyal, hardest-working man who promised not to play golf while serving as president, unlike the black guy, Obama, who wasted lots of time on the golf course while he should have been doing his job as president of the United States: Remember, Donald Trump was sent by God Himself to make America great again. ------ ------ Trump's Russia report victory turns sour AFP Sebastian Smith,AFP 4 hours ago Washington (AFP) - Donald Trump wanted a victory lap after the apparent flop of the Russia collusion probe, but on Thursday, 11 days later, the president instead found himself being chased in circles. Over and over the president has crowed that special counsel Robert Mueller's massive investigation into the Trump team's links to Moscow resulted in total "exoneration." But that claim is based on the conclusions of Trump's handpicked attorney general William Barr who released a four-page summary of the still secret report. The actual report, running hundreds of pages, has yet to be released publicly. And US media reports have now quoted sources from the previously almost totally leak-proof Mueller team saying that Barr's characterization glossed over potentially damaging findings. "Members of Mueller's team have complained to close associates that the evidence they gathered on obstruction was alarming and significant," The Washington Post said late Wednesday. The New York Times -- another mainstay of insider US political reporting -- quoted its unnamed sources saying that Barr "failed to adequately portray the findings of their inquiry and that they were more troubling for President Trump than Mr. Barr indicated." The Justice Department was forced Thursday to defend Barr's summary, saying "every page" of Mueller's report was flagged as potentially containing confidential material and insisting it would be released in full once "appropriate redactions" had been made. And in a furious tweet, Trump said the Times "had no legitimate sources, which would be totally illegal, concerning the Mueller Report. In fact, they probably had no sources at all! They are a Fake News paper who have already been forced to apologize for their incorrect and very bad reporting on me!" - Vindication - This is not the way it was meant to be for the Republican as he launches his 2020 reelection fight. For two years Trump loudly, repeatedly excoriated Mueller's "witch hunt" and dismissed as nonsense the idea he might have colluded with attempts by Russia to tilt public opinion in his favor during the 2016 election. The Barr summary looked like a stunning vindication. According to Barr, Mueller found that no one in the Trump team had "conspired or coordinated with Russia." On the question of whether Trump had tried to obstruct justice and prevent Mueller from freely investigating the Russia angle, Barr said the special prosecutor did not reach a definitive conclusion. "While this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him," Barr quoted Mueller as saying. That sounded perilously ambiguous for the president, but with Barr himself making the judgment that there was in fact no obstruction offense, Trump could call it a win. In streams of tweets, comments to journalists and a celebratory campaign rally, Trump said he had been proven right. He even accused the law enforcement officials and Democratic Party politicians who supported Mueller's probe of treason. - 'Sneaky,' 'rabid' - But questioning by Democrats about why the report has not been fully released and now the reported leaks from the Mueller team are turning that victory sour. In a statement on Thursday, Justice Department spokeswoman Kerri Kupec defended Barr's handling of the report. "Given the extraordinary public interest in the matter, the Attorney General decided to release the report's bottom-line findings and his conclusions immediately -- without attempting to summarize the report -- with the understanding that the report itself would be released after the redaction process," she said. Barr "does not believe the report should be released in 'serial or piecemeal fashion,'" she added. In the meantime, it was back to business as usual for Trump on Twitter, with attacks on opponents that could have been written months ago. "According to polling, few people seem to care about the Russian Collusion Hoax, but some Democrats are fighting hard to keep the Witch Hunt alive," he tweeted Thursday. "They should focus on legislation or, even better, an investigation of how the ridiculous Collusion Delusion got started - so illegal!" Trump's lawyer, former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani, was also refighting the supposedly finished battle. On Fox News Wednesday night, he called the Mueller team "a bunch of sneaky, unethical leakers. And they are rabid Democrats who hate the president of United States." As for Trump's actions regarding the murky Russian involvement in the election? "We think we can prove beyond any doubt that there is nothing to collusion," Giuliani said. | |

Part of Freddie's job is to explain when the PU site has glitches or does not meet our expectations. So she is put into the position of apologizing when the site is not running smoothly. I think she tries to inject an element of warmth and caring to address our questions. So for that, I think she is to be admired. Certainly far more so than Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who has to deflect questions from reporters who question her about Trump's lies. Sanders has a tough job. Freddie's job can be tough, because the PU site is not running smoothly. Due to tech problems and other issues. But I believe Freddie is trying her best, and when she explained that the staff is trying to manage 26 properties, I understood better why Freddie and the staff do not have the time or ability to address all of our concerns. They really need to hire more people (staff and tech) to run these sites. Just my opinion, of course. I don't have a good idea of how the staff is running these properties. Or even what the properties consist of. But that's not Freddie's fault. I don't know if they have the financial resources to do more hires. Khan seemed to be on the site 24 hours a day, and he devoted an extraordinary amount of time to the site. But that was a different era. I doubt Khan had 26 properties to manage. The PU site was his baby. So we need to cut Freddie some slack, and try to let her do her job. She really needs some more staff to help. PS: Freddie's missing avatar is a minor issue, which points out that the tech team doesn't have the time to fix even small problems at the PU site. We can live without the avatar, because there are other, more important issues to be handled. Edited on Apr 04, 2019, 06:45am | |

I just opened a porn index page, and they required me to pass through 2 captchas before they let me view the porn index page. The reason given was too many bots and other programs are visiting the site. How long before the PU site will require a captcha? How long before Freddie is replaced by a bot that freezes our accounts if we don't smile for the hidden camera? Freddie, if you are listening, beware the Bot! We would miss your happy presence, especially if you are replaced before we get to see your avatar! Tell the tech team there will be a revolt at the PU site, unless we can see if you are a real human or a disguised bot. | |

Fake news: Trump praises Mueller report. Says Mueller has declared Trump is totally innocent, and now that the report is finally out, Trump and Mueller can be best friends again. Democrats, on the other hand, want to read the full report for themselves, to find what the report says, instead of reading the summary by the Attorney General, who says his summary is not a summary, but a report on a report. -------- -------- Mueller's team reportedly believes its findings are more dangerous to Trump than Barr indicated Business Insider Sonam Sheth Apr 3rd 2019 9:16PM Some of the investigators who worked with the special counsel Robert Mueller on the FBI's Russia investigation believe their findings are more damaging to President Donald Trump than Attorney General William Barr has indicated, The New York Times reported on Wednesday. According to The Times, some members of Mueller's team have told associates that they are concerned Barr's initial review of the report, which included his "principal conclusions" of Mueller's findings, has already shaped the public's perception of the probe before the final report is released. Mueller was tasked with investigating Russia's interference in the 2016 US election, whether members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with Moscow, and whether Trump obstructed justice in the investigation after then FBI Director James Comey publicly confirmed its existence in March 2017. In his review of Mueller's findings, Barr wrote that the special counsel did not find sufficient evidence to bring a conspiracy charge against Trump or anyone associated with his campaign. The attorney general added that investigators declined to make a "traditional prosecutorial judgment" on whether Trump obstructed justice and did not conclude — one way or another — whether the president committed an obstruction crime. Investigators noted that their final report did not "exonerate" the president. But Barr, in consultation with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, concluded that there was not enough evidence to accuse Trump of obstruction. Barr has told lawmakers that he will work quickly to release as much information as possible from the special counsel's final report. According to The Times, however, Mueller's investigators had already written multiple summaries of the report, and some of them believe Barr should have included more of their material in the initial four-page letter he sent to Congress laying out his principal conclusions. But the Justice Department reportedly determined that the summaries Mueller's office put together contained sensitive information, including classified material, secret grand-jury testimony, and information related to current ongoing federal investigations. The Times' report is the first public indication of tension between the attorney general and the special counsel's office over the conclusions about the Russia investigation. Barr recently told Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler that he is in the process of redacting certain types of information from the nearly 400-page report and intends to release the document by mid-April, if not sooner. But House Democrats are moving to subpoena a full, unredacted copy of the report from the Justice Department. "We have reason to suspect [the Trump administration's] motives," Nadler said in a statement Wednesday, before the House Judiciary Committee voted to authorize subpoenas for the report. "The Mueller report probably isn't the 'total exoneration' the President claims it to be. And, in any event, this Committee has a job to do. The Constitution charges Congress with holding the President accountable for alleged official misconduct." "That job requires us to evaluate the evidence for ourselves — not the Attorney General's summary, not a substantially redacted synopsis, but the full report and the underlying evidence," the statement said. Trump, meanwhile, initially said he would support releasing Mueller's full report without redactions. But the president shifted gears in recent days, slamming Democrats and suggesting an unredacted version should not be released to Congress or the public. | |

Freddie, if you would look over Jimmy Regina's posts at the PU site, I believe you will find that he is trying to start a flame war, or at least acting in a disruptive way to the PU community. He is the webmaster of Asian Sex Diary. He was annoyed (to put it mildly) by some PU members' reviews of his site. If he had reacted in a polite and helpful manner to the reviews, that would have been helpful to his site and to the PU site. But it appears he is trying to start a flame war, where he is attacking PU members. This is not helpful. It hurts the PU site. If you don't have the authority to ban or suspend Jimmy Regina from the PU site for his personal attacks, can you contact other PU staff, and then, if you all agree that Jimmy Regina is a disruptive influence, ban him from the PU site? I'm not saying to delist his site from the PU site. I'm saying that Jimmy Regina membership should be suspended. Since his contributions to the PU site are negative in value. And if you and the PU staff don't agree that Jimmy Regina should be suspended, would you at least tell the PU community your decision, and possibly the reasons for it? Basically, we just want to know what the PU staff is thinking about Jimmy Regina, who seems to be a problem for the PU site community, with his personal attacks on the members. Sincerely, lk2fireone | |

Wow. Managing 26 properties means the staff is spread thin. That helps explain why we don't see as much of you and the other staff as we'd like, sometimes. And also explains why the tech team doesn't have a lot of time to devote to the PU site. At least we now have an idea of what's behind the problems at the PU site. Thanks for the explanation. I mean that sincerely.  What I mean is, some of the PU members seemed to think the PU staff were ignoring the site and members' requests. But the reason was you're handling a lot of different sites. With a limited amount of staff. I wish you luck. | |

I think paying $15 or more to see a movie in a theater is highway robbery. So I normally wait to watch a movie on DVD or on cable. Much cheaper. And the popcorn and soda is also cheaper. So it's been many months (maybe a year) since I've seen a movie in a theater. Also, I try to select porn sites that give me good value for my dollars. I suggest looking for a discounted membership to Adult Time. They have a large number of sites covering many different niches. Unlimited streaming, unlimited downloads. During the holidays, you can sometimes find a discounted membership to Adult Time for under $100 for the year. If you're lucky, you might find a discounted membership for 1 year at around $65, which is a great deal. There are other sites that are worth joining, but Adult Time is one of the best values out there. | |

President Trump is the best golfer we've ever had. When he plays with the professional golfers, they strain to compete with Trump's scores. Trump, the best golfer, the best man, the most honest man: more honest than George Washington, more honest than Honest Abe. Trump, man of the people. ------ ------ Pro golfers say President Trump 'cheats at the highest level' in new book Yahoo Sports Ben Weinrib Mar 31st 2019 8:57PM President Donald Trump is certainly known to bend the truth. The Washington Post has counted nearly a dozen false or misleading claims per day of his presidency, while Politifact scored 70 percent of his statements as Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire. As it turns out, that propensity to lie also carries over to his longtime love of golf. There’s already been the story of Trump naming himself the winner of a tournament he never played in, but former Sports Illustrated columnist Rick Reilly spells out the extent of the lying and cheating in his new book, “Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump,” which will be available on Tuesday. “To say ‘Donald Trump cheats’ is like saying ‘Michael Phelps swims,'” Reilly writes. “He cheats at the highest level. He cheats when people are watching and he cheats when they aren’t. He cheats whether you like it or not. He cheats because that’s how he plays golf … if you’re playing golf with him, he’s going to cheat.” Mulligans and tampering with balls Trump’s most blatant cheating reportedly comes in the form of not playing his shots — or others’ — where they actually land. When Trump played golf with Tiger Woods, world No. 1 Dustin Johnson and PGA Tour veteran Brad Faxon in February, Trump hit a ball into the lake. But when the other players weren't looking, he got out another ball and hit another try, although that too went into the lake. “So he drives up,” Faxon said, “and drops where he should’ve dropped the first time and hits it on the green.” The cheating is not just to impress pro golfers. Reilly also details stories with ESPN announcer Mike Tirico, LPGA pro Suzann Pettersen and actor Samuel L. Jackson. In one of the most egregious stories, Tirico remembers hitting one of the best shots of his life squarely onto the green, but when he walked over, the ball was 50 feet away in a bunker. “Trump’s caddy came up to me and said, ‘You know that shot you hit on the par 5?’” Tirico says. “‘It was about 10 feet from the hole. Trump threw it in the bunker. I watched him do it.’” Lying is par for the course for Trump One of the strangest things about Trump’s history of lying while golfing is that he’s reportedly a very respectable golfer. However, he habitually lies about how good he is, including his self-reported 2.8 handicap, which is less than a stroke away from PGA legend and frequent golfing partner Jack Nicklaus. Even his courses contain lies, from his Trump National Golf Club wrongly claiming that a Civil War battle took place on site to his Bedminster course falsely attributing praise from famed golf architect Tom Fazio. Still, none of this is particularly shocking to anyone who has followed Trump. After he repeatedly admonished former President Obama for golfing and said that he would have no time to play himself, Trump has played a round every 4.2 days — twice Obama’s rate. And, naturally, he tends to lie and cover up how often he plays while on the job. | |

Fake news: President Trump says the New York Times and The Washington Post were given the Pulitzer Prize for fraudulent news reports. Trump says he will order US troops to storm the headquarters of the Pulitzer Board to arrest the criminals who gave the prizes to these fake news organizations. Trump will personally head a 5-man jury to determine whether the Pulitzer Board are guilty of treason, and should be placed in front of a firing squad. If found guilty, President Trump will fire the first shots, because he is a hero of the Amerian people, and he stands for truth, honesty, and the American way of life. Trump, man of the people. There need to be consequences when people try to smear Trump or publish fake news. Trump over all. | |

President Trump, our beloved president of the United States, reveals that Bob Mueller is a traitor, who tried to smear President Trump's image. Trump, the most heroic and moral president the US has ever had. Trump, the man who will stand at Jesus' right hand when Trump ascends to heaven. Let us all agree, that Trump, our beloved leader, will lead the fight to make America great again. We have to understand the forces of Evil, which are trying to bring Trump and the rest of America down. We must unite in love and strength behind Trump, who was sent by God himself to lead America. | |

mbay, you don't have to compare yourself to Shen. I've done some research on his background. Shem used to be a professional reviewer, who sold his soul to the darkside, to gain the help of Brainiac in writing their reviews. One day Superman (or Batman, or some other superhero) will make an announcement that Shen and his alter-ego Brainiac have been taken down, so we won't have to worry about people comparing our reviews to Shen. Whether Shen will be banished to the darkside, or utterly destroyed by the Immaculate Lodestone, will be debated by mystical scholars of the future. | |

There is no set time between when a poll is submitted, accepted, and when it goes live. It can be days, weeks, or months. And when it goes live: the same, except that polls can go live years after they were submitted (like walking dead, I presume). That's why you might see a poll from Khan going live at PU every once in a while. Unless Freddie sends you an email or does a special post, you probably won't know your poll submission has been accepted until you see it live at PU one day. That's a best-guess on my part, because the normal email confirmations from the PU site seem to have bit the dust (in the new era of PU tech-support zombie heaven). | |

ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS HIS BOSS IS INNOCENT. (WE ARE ALL INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY IN A COURT OF LAW.) SO WHY ISN'T TRUMP RELEASING THE MUELLER REPORT IN FULL, KNOWING IT WILL PROVE HIS INNOCENCE? BECAUSE TRUMP IS SUCH AN HONEST, GOD-FEARING MAN, WHO STRIKES TERROR IN THE HEARTS OF EVIL DEMOCRATS WHEREVER THEY MAY LURK. GOD SAVE DONALD TRUMP, THE MAN WHO IS MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. | |

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, OUR GREATEST AMERICAN PRESIDENT, REVEALS THAT JOHN MCCAIN WAS EVIL. MCCAIN WAS A HORRIBLE PERSON, PRESIDENT TRUMP REVEALS. TRUMP, THE GREATEST WAR HERO OF THE VIETNAM ERA, SAYS THAT MCCAIN WAS NO HERO. MCCAIN WAS CAPTURED. HE WAS WEAK. HE DID NOT ESCAPE HIS ENEMIES, BUT WAITED UNTIL THE US GOVERNMENT WAS ABLE TO BRING HIM HOME. COMPARE THAT TO DONALD TRUMP, WHO ATTENDED SCHOOLS WHILE IN THE UNITED STATES, WAITING TO SERVE HIS COUNTRY HONORABLY, UNTIL THE DAY HE BECAME PRESIDENT OF OUR COUNTRY, VOWING TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020 (UNLESS THAT TRAITOR MUELLER USES UNFAIR MEANS TO HAVE TRUMP IMPEACHED. GO, TRUMP!!!! ------ ------ Trump Triples Down on Bizarre Attacks Against ‘Evil’ John McCain, Complains ‘He Was Horrible’ People Helen Murphy,People Fri, Mar 22 10:58 AM PDT After a weekend tweet-storm and a Wednesday speech, President Donald Trump again attacked the late Arizona Sen. John McCain in an interview with Fox Business Network that aired Friday morning. Trump told Maria Bartiromo that his recent criticisms of the politician — including falsely mocking McCain as “last in his class” at the Naval Academy — stem from the fact that the president believes McCain was motivated by “evil” intent when he gave the FBI an as-yet-unconfirmed dossier about Trump’s alleged connection with the Russian government. (According to the New York Times, federal authorities already had a copy of the dossier when McCain brought it to them.) As CNN explains, the so-called “Steele dossier” was written by British intelligence officer Christopher Steele and alleges a “widespread conspiracy of collusion” between the president and the Russian government. Both Trump and the Kremlin deny the claims and some details of the dossier have not been verified, though many have “held up over time” or “proved to be partially true,” according to CNN. Trump said Friday the dossier “was a fake, it was a fraud” and that McCain passed it to the FBI “for very evil purposes. That’s not good.” The president also brought up McCain’s dramatic last-second 2017 vote against efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act, essentially dooming the Republicans’ years-long campaign against it. RELATED: John McCain’s Ultra-Private Daughter Bridget Tweets Directly to Trump Over His Attacks — ‘You Are a Child’ “The other thing: He [McCain] voted against repeal and replace,” the president said. “Now he’s been campaigning for years for repeal and replace. I’m not a fan. After all this time — think of this, repeal and replace — we would’ve had great health care.” When asked why he continued to attack McCain even though the senator died in August from brain cancer at the age of 81, Trump said it was because the press kept bringing up the subject — even though Trump himself mentioned McCain again, unprompted, in a Twitter spree this weekend and again at speech in Ohio. “He was horrible, what he did with repeal and replace,” Trump said. “What he did to the Republican Party and to the nation and to sick people that could have had great healthcare was not good.” “I’m not a fan of John McCain, and that’s fine,” the president finished. President Donald Trump (left) and Sen. John McCain | SHAWN THEW/EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock; Mustafa Ozturk/Anadolu Agency/Getty Trump’s animosity about the late senator traces back years but returned to view over the weekend, when he accused McCain of leaking the aforementioned dossier. (Amid his flurry of tweets over several days, Trump also attacked Saturday Night Live and the husband of one of his top advisers.) Trump falsely claimed in his tweets that McCain graduated last in his class at the United States Naval Academy. “Spreading the fake and totally discredited dossier ‘is, unfortunately, a very dark stain against John McCain.’ Ken Starr, Former Independent Counsel. He had far worse ‘stains’ than this, including thumbs down on repeal and replace after years of campaigning to repeal and replace!” Trump wrote on Saturday. McCain’s daughters Meghan and Bridget weren’t shy in their response to the president. During Monday’s episode of The View, Meghan, 34, and the rest of her co-hosts discussed Trump’s tweets over the weekend. After sitting quietly for the first part of the conversation, Meghan spoke up and slammed Trump for spending his weekend speaking poorly of her late father, whom she referred to as a “great man.” “[Trump] spends his weekend obsessing over great men because — he knows it and I know it and all of you know it — he will never be a great man,” she stated. “My father was his kryptonite in life, he’s his kryptonite in death.” On Thursday, McCain’s ultra-private daughter Bridget tweeted at the president directly. “Everyone doesn’t have to agree with my dad or like him, but I do ask you to be decent and respectful,” wrote Bridget, 27. “If you can’t do those two things, be mindful. We only said goodbye to him almost 7 months ago.” In a second tweet, Bridget went on the offensive, casting the president’s fixation on her father as part of his broader narcissism and poor impulse control. “Even if you were invited to my dad’s funeral, you would have only wanted to be there for the credit and not for any condolences,” she wrote. “Unfortunately, you could not be counted on to be courteous, as you are a child in the most important role the world knows.” This week, Trump also bizarrely complained that “didn’t get a thank you” for approving McCain’s funeral. Speaking at a White House event at an Ohio tank manufacturing facility on Wednesday, Trump claimed he did not receive proper gratitude on behalf of McCain’s loved ones after “approving” the senator’s funeral service — which he did not attend — on Sept. 1. It’s unclear what Trump meant as presidential approval was not required for any of the McCain memorials. But he was likely referring to his authorization of the use of a military plane to transport McCain’s body to Washington, D.C. “I endorsed him at his request and I gave him the kind of funeral he wanted, which as president I had to approve,” Trump said at the event. He then reiterated his comments from a day earlier, telling the crowd, “I don’t care about this … I didn’t get a thank you. That’s okay. We sent him on the way. But I wasn’t a fan of John McCain.” RELATED: Donald Trump Claims He ‘Didn’t Get a Thank You’ for ‘Approving’ John McCain’s Funeral Amid Attacks Trump’s bad blood with McCain started as early as 1999 when Trump questioned whether or not the senator was a war hero during a 60 Minutes interview. McCain was a prisoner of war in North Vietnam for more than five years. The former Navy pilot previously told PEOPLE that he survived thanks to his “faith in God, faith in my fellow prisoners and faith in my country.” But on 60 Minutes, Trump, who received a deferment from the military draft, was openly derisive. “He was captured … Does being captured make you a hero?” he said of McCain. “I don’t know. I’m not sure.” Trump’s comment resurfaced during the 2016 Republican presidential primary. This time, Trump doubled down. “He’s not a war hero,” Trump said at the Family Leadership Summit in Iowa in July 2015. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” Trump and McCain would continue to go head-to-head up until the senator’s death. In his final letter, shared after he died, McCain expressed his gratitude for his accomplished life and the importance of sticking to American ideals despite “present difficulties.” McCain’s letter mentioned “tribal rivalries” and “[hiding] behind walls rather than [tearing] them down” — seemingly subtle shots at Trump’s resistance to foreign alliances and immigration and his inflammatory racial rhetoric. On Thursday, Meghan said on The View that Trump’s continued fuming was draining for her family. “I don’t expect decency and compassion from the Trump family,” she said. “I do want to thank the American public for all the decency and compassion that they have given us. Do not feel sorry for our family.” She instead urged viewers to “do something good out of all this toxicity,” such as support wounded veterans. | |

I've read your review of the site, and thought the review was excellent: fair, balanced, with many fine and detailed pros, cons, bottom line points. The webmaster of the site was offended by the review. Implied it was fake news, and biased. Any review is slightly biased, by the writer's own beliefs. But you made every effort to make the review fair and impartial, with detailed reasons for the review. Far beyond what most reviews show. Just a suggestion: I suggest making this a PU poll, where you will get more public responses from the PU members. Write it however you want: For example (just an example: write whatever you want)- The mbaya site review of Asian Sex Diary was fair: -Agree. With comments. -Disagree. With comments. -The webmaster response was fair: Agree. With reasons. -The webmaster response was disrespectful. Agree. With reasons. -The webmaster should be banned from the PU site. Agree. With reasons. -The webmaster should not be banned from the PU site: Agree. With reasons. | |

I visited NYC in the 1970s a couple of times. I live in LA County, which is spread out over a wide area, with a large population, NYC downtown reminded me of an ant hill, with the streets clogged with people. The prices were high, compared to California prices. The pizza was delicious, but that was my best impression of the place. I saw the Statue of Liberty, took the NYC harbor cruise, visited some of the museums. Think I went to the main library, which was huge., Too many people live there. Always hurrying. And rude or aggressive. Interesting to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. England was a better vacation spot, and the prices were much cheaper. | |

PRESIDENT TRUMP, THE BRAVEST, MOST HONEST, AND DECENT PRESIDENT THE UNITED STATES HAS EVER HAD, CONFESSES THAT JOHN MCCAIN, WHO IS NOW DEAD, WAS A TRAITOR TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, AND A TRAITOR TO PRESIDENT TRUMP HIMSELF. AND YET, PRESIDENT TRUMP ALLOWED MCCAIN TO BE BURIED WITH HONORS, BECAUSE TRUMP IS THE KIND OF MAN WHO FORGIVES HIS ENEMIES. -------- -------- AP FACT CHECK: Trump pins woes in Russia probe on McCain Associated Press HOPE YEN, CALVIN WOODWARD and ERIC TUCKER,Associated Press 3 hours ago WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's slam on Sen. John McCain flips reality on its head when it comes to who gave veterans the option to see a private doctor at public expense. He also pins some of his woes in the Russia investigation on a distorted account of the late senator's actions in the matter. Trump overstates McCain's role in aiding the FBI with a false chronology on when the senator provided a so-called "dossier" that detailed many salacious but unconfirmed details about Trump and his aides. The president also got his history wrong on veterans. "McCain didn't get the job done for our great vets," Trump said. "I got it done." Actually, McCain got it done. Trump routinely takes full credit for enacting the Choice program, suggesting he had fulfilled a campaign promise to provide private-sector care for veterans while ignoring the fact that it was signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2014. This time, his boast came as part of a broad-brush denunciation of McCain, the senator from Arizona, Vietnam war naval aviator and tortured prisoner of war who died in August of brain cancer. A look at the claims: TRUMP: "John McCain received a fake and phony dossier. Did you hear about the dossier? It was paid for by Crooked Hillary Clinton. Right? And John McCain got it. He got it. And what did he do? He didn't call me. He turned it over to the FBI, hoping to put me in jeopardy." — remarks Wednesday at an Army tank factory in Lima, Ohio . TRUMP: "So it was indeed (just proven in court papers) 'last in his class' (Annapolis) John McCain that sent the Fake Dossier to the FBI and Media hoping to have it printed BEFORE the Election. He & the Dems, working together, failed (as usual)." — tweet Sunday. THE FACTS: Trump's chronology is incorrect. McCain did not present then-FBI Director James Comey with a copy of the memos compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele until December 2016, according to a deposition from a McCain associate, David Kramer. FBI officials had access to Steele's research on Trump before the election, as they referenced it as part of an application for a secret search warrant of Trump associate Carter Page. Trump often claims falsely that special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe is based on the dossier. That probe is examining Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and possible coordination with the Trump campaign. The FBI's investigation actually began months before it received the dossier of anti-Trump research financed by the Democratic Party and Clinton's campaign. The FBI probe's origins were based on other evidence — not the existence of the dossier. There is no evidence that McCain provided the dossier to the news media. And while McCain famously racked up demerits and earned poor grades at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, he ultimately graduated fifth from the bottom of his 1958 class, not last. ___ TRUMP: "The vets were on my side because I got the job done. I got Choice, and I got accountability. ... For many decades, they couldn't get it done. It was never done. I got it. Five months ago, I got it done. Choice." — remarks in Ohio. THE FACTS: What Trump got done was an expansion of the program achieved by McCain and Sen. Bernie Sanders, most prominent among the lawmakers who advanced the legislation signed by Obama. McCain was a co-sponsor of the 2014 legislation to overhaul the Department of Veterans Affairs following a scandal at VA's medical center in Phoenix, where some veterans died while waiting months for appointments for medical care. He was a key negotiator for the legislation establishing the Veterans Choice program, working with Sanders, the co-author of the bill. Sanders was then chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee. McCain didn't rest after the law was enacted. He fought to expand the program and achieved that, too, in his last months. Congress approved the expansion in May and Trump signed the legislation in June. It's named after three veterans who served in Congress. One of them is McCain. It's called the John S. McCain III, Daniel K. Akaka, and Samuel R. Johnson VA Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks Act of 2018. ___ TRUMP: "Instead of waiting in line for two days, two weeks, two months, people waiting on line — they're not very sick, by the time they see a doctor, they are terminally ill — we give them Choice. If you have to wait for any extended period of time, you go outside, you go to a local doctor, we pay the bill, you get yourself better, go home to your family — and we got it passed. We got it done." — remarks in Ohio. THE FACTS: As he does routinely, Trump exaggerated what's been accomplished with his expansion. Veterans still must wait for weeks before they can get private care outside the VA system. The program currently allows veterans to see doctors outside VA if they must wait more than 30 days for an appointment or drive more than 40 miles (65 kilometers) to a VA facility. Under new rules to take effect in June, veterans are to have that option for a private doctor if their VA wait is only 20 days (28 for specialty care) or their drive is only 30 minutes. But the expanded Choice eligibility may do little to provide immediate help. That's because veterans often must wait even longer for an appointment in the private sector. Last year, then-Secretary David Shulkin said VA care is "often 40 percent better in terms of wait times" compared with the private sector. In 2018, 34 percent of all VA appointments were with outside physicians, down from 36 percent in 2017. The VA also must resolve long-term financing because of congressional budget caps after the White House opposed new money to pay for the program. As a result, lawmakers could be forced later this year to limit the program or slash core VA or other domestic programs. Also key to the program's success is an overhaul of VA's electronic medical records to allow seamless sharing of medical records with private physicians, a process expected to take up to 10 years. VA Secretary Robert Wilkie has said full implementation of the expanded Choice program is "years" away. ___ HuffPost George Conway Reveals Why Donald Trump 'Couldn't Be Allowed' To Talk To Robert Mueller HuffPost Lee Moran,HuffPost 8 hours ago George Conway risked reigniting his Twitter feud that’s been raging with Donald Trump this week as he offered an explanation Thursday as to why the president hadn’t spoken to special counsel Robert Mueller as part of his Russia investigation. Conway claimed that a lawyer for Trump told him the president “couldn’t be allowed” to talk to Mueller because “he’d lie his ass off.” The conservative attorney, who is married to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, doubled down in other posts on his suggestion that Trump is mentally unfit for office. He also bashed him for lying “even when it makes no sense to lie” and said “the two keys to understanding Trump” were his “narcissism and compulsive prevarication.” Trump was the “worst kind of dumb,” he added. Trump has fired back at Conway’s earlier attacks, calling him the “husband from hell” and a “stone cold LOSER,” but has yet to respond to the latest tweets. Check out Conway’s posts here: This article originally appeared on HuffPost. | |

Maybe I'm being nit-picking. But if you follow the PU site closely, you will find errors creeping in. It's probably a software issue. For example, on the PU home page, Top Users Last 7 Days The reported figures are in error. Did anyone teach the PU computer how to count? (Joke). Today, 2019-03-19, the reported figures for marcdc1 and exotics4me are both 4 points for 2 reviews in the last 7 days. Wrong. Count back for the last 7 days, and each of them submitted 1 review, and received 2 points. A minor quibble. No big thing. But someone should examine the software running the site, and fix the bugs. End of rant. | |

My guess is that you didn't select to check the email notifications boxes, so you would not have been sent emails for when your reviews were accepted, or replied to, or for other matters. No big thing. But I suspect that the person running software for the PU site is letting grinches into to the system, and the system at PU is not running as smoothly as it used to. No big thing. But I used to get a confirming email when a review was accepted, or replied to. Those boxes are still checked at the Account Preferences paqe. But the preferences checked are not being obeyed by the computer system (a software problem, unless the computer hardware system is messed up, as well). And that's why Freddie can't post an avatar to the PU site: Because the software engineer (or whatever he/she is called) is not handling the system software properly: he/she either lacks knowledge or experience of running a web site software. | |
