Trump acquittal and the war on domestic terrorism

 Does the second acquittal of Trump have any implications for the labs?


One could argue that if if Trump was impeached that it would be a full acknowledgement that domestic terrorism is the number one issue of the day and national security funding could have been dedicated to fighting the 2nd war on terror. Now it may be a harder sell that we have now entered a new war on terror.

Trump was impeached, he was not convicted.

For those that think he and his followers are domestic terrorists and that is the most pressing issue facing the country, it doesn't matter if he was convicted or not. For those people, Trump and his followers need to be rooted out, a guilty verdict would have been their "legal justification" to perform the witch trials. They can simply state that a few misguided Republican senators (meaning traitors themselves) were the impediment to the first step of the necessary purge.

As to what does it mean to the labs? Maybe they'll get the paperwork requiring that all those who wish to remain employed must now and forevermore vow to vote Democrat. That might satisfy the woke monster for a few months, but such a creature is never truly fully fed.

I can understand why 7:39 PM cannot sleep. Do you realize what you are saying? Have you gone down the conspiracy theory Q rabbit of hole of insanity? This country cannot go on until there is accountability. If you know anything about history you know that after ww2 there was an effort at deNizification, we need something like this now.

"Former FBI Director James Comey said in an interview published Thursday that the Republican Party must “be burned to the ground” before it can rebuild now that former President Trump's term in the Oval Office has ended. "

By the way he is not calling for an incitement to violence he is using burn down as a metaphor. By the way we know Trump and his minions is too stupid to know what a
metaphor is so that is why we know that when they say fight they mean actual violence.

But back to the questions of how is it relevant to the labs? Will domestic terrorism be a big part of the labs new mission, or is it same old same old.

Very scary perhaps one good thing that can come about from the insurrection is real gun control and a ban on assault weapons. Just imagine what would have happened on Jan 6th of those people where armed. We must make sure that this can never occur.

If we outlaw guns there won't be any more gun violence - See Chicago
If we stop nuclear testing no new nuclear weapons will be built - See North Korea

I am not sure what you are talking about since guns are not outlawed in Illinois or Indiana. I would also add that the violence in Chicago is complex and in part due in part to the racists history of the US. One of the reasons that is so much violence in Chicago is due to the heavy handed policing and to past and present racial profiling and over policing.

But I could have swore the party in power was the “good people”. I mean they have been there for a century. But wait, maybe they arent. Is that what you are saying?

I think I have a solution for Chicago and D.C. People are complaining of the presence of the National Guard in the capitol. Send them back home and replace them with the police from Chicago. The National Guard goes away taking their scary weapons with them. You bring in the Chicago police, but tell them to park their weapons in Nancy Peolosi's office. Now, Chicago is free from the heavy handed police, the National Guard is back home at their regular jobs and the sun will shine and the birds will sing. What could go wrong?

Chicago's gun laws are much more restrictive than Illinois' laws. And your reference to "the racists history of the US" tells me you are not a serious person, just another guilty white person who wants everyone to feel as guilty as you do. Sorry, not getting on that bus to nowhere.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
