  • Hard News: Trump's Dummkopfs,

    While the fact that Trump probably doesn't pay any tax may have punctured the orange clown's campaign, now New York's attorney general has ordered Trump’s charitable foundation to suspend all fundraising immediately. The Trump foundation has been soliciting donations of more than $25,000 a year without being properly registered under New York law. No surprises there then.

    Of course there's also the little matter of Trump using funds from the Trust to pay his personal debts. Then there's that ongoing law suit against his dodgy "university" being pursued by same NY attorney general.

    Is this misogynistic, lying fraud really the best candidate the Republicans can come up with the fill the role of president?

  • Hard News: Trump's Dummkopfs,

    Trump has continued his attacks on former Miss Universe Alicia Machado. This time he’s issued a series of tweets between 3am – 5:30am, implying there is “a sex tape” involving Machado. Fact checkers say that’s a lie.

    The Trump Foundation which he uses a a personal piggy bank was never officially registered in New York State and has been operating illegally. That inspired this memorable quote from Prof. James J. Fishman, a professor at Pace University’s law school in NY.

    He’s a billionaire who acts like a thousandaire.

    And while Republican leaders such as Cruz have swallowed shit and ditched their integrity to endorse Trump, not all US conservatives are that weak and floppy. The Arizona Republic is a bastion of the Republican movement.

    For 126 years, the Republic has endorsed candidates for president of the United States. For 126 years, they’ve always been Republicans.

    This week the Republic broke tradition and officially endorsed Hillary Clinton. It’s worth reading the editorial for its concise description of Trump’s faults and marvel that this is coming from a far right publication.

  • Hard News: Dirty Politics,

    Worth recording in this thread... Colin Craig must pay Jordon Williams $1.3m for defamation.

    Williams' lawyer Peter McKnight reckons his client is "a lovely guy''. Based on that quote you'd have to assume that he's never read Nicky Hager's Dirty Politics.

    Coolest MSM line so far...

    She looked like she belonged on a banknote. He looked like he belonged in detention.

    The same story refers to Trump as a "terracotta grifter".

    Alas. The abilty to spray bile and walk away is a poor substitute for cogent argument.

  • Hard News: Housing NZ keeps digging the…,

    HNZ seem to be proud of the fact that they're actively targetting meth users rather than cooks. In someone's tiny corporate mind, a positive test, no matter how irrelevant, is viewed as some kind of win. Check out this HNZ response to an OIA request... (my bold).

    Our staff are also becoming more experienced in identifying methamphetamine use, and we are placing greater focus on identifying homes where methamphetamine is used, or has been used in the past, rather than manufactured.
