CUBA – Various torture techniques have become controversial over the years for prisoners incarcerated at Guantanamo Bay’s (Gitmo) famous prison. Waterboarding, electric shock and other methods have been criticized for being inhumane.
As of today, President Trump has authorized what many feel could be the most sinister torture method ever used at the facility. All prisoners, regardless of their crimes, will have to endure listening to Hillary Clinton recite her endless list of excuses for losing the 2016 election from the audiobook version of her latest literary flop, What Happened.
The audiobook version of What Happened clocks in at 16 Hours and 50 minutes, which means that prisoners are subjected to her screeching for all hours of the day, except when sleeping.
“Like a voice from the shadows, she haunts my darkest nightmares.” – an unnamed detainee
Every prisoner has pleaded with guards and prison officials to only make them read the book instead. Hearing Hillary’s voice in your own head as you read What Happened is horrifying enough, but having to actually listen to her drone on for hours on end is unbearable. Prison guards are equipped with ear plugs and headphones to block out Hillary’s voice when the recording is played. Some Senate Democrats, and even Bernie Sanders, have petitioned the White House to back away from the new torture plan. Minority leader Chuck Schumer said the book was one thing, but that “listening to the audio version is clearly a violation of the cruel and unusual punishment clause.”
Intel reports from the Middle East confirm that when a number of ISIS militants received word of the new torture method, they dropped their weapons and fled the battlefield.
No general theme, just a mishmash of the state of things today.

THIS REMINDED ME OF THE TIME NAVY SEAL SNIPERS TOOK OUT 3 SOMALI PIRATES WITH 3 SIMULTANEOUS HEAD SHOTS FROM THE DECK OF A PITCHING BOAT
This reminds me of an NCIS episode in which Gibbs takes out a wise-mouthed terrorist just before he’s about to kill DiNozzo, McGee and Ziva. Gibbs is on a mountain top at least a mile away with a high-powered rifle, and he puts a bullet right through the bad guy’s forehead.
The British Special Air Service marksman turned one of the most hated terrorists in Syria into a fireball by using a Barett .50-caliber rifle to strike a fuel tank affixed to the jihadi’s back, the UK’s Daily Star reported Sunday.
The pack exploded, killing the sadistic terrorist and three of his flunkies, who were supposed to film the execution, last month, the paper said.
Phillips 66 Uses Jones Act Waiver to Book Foreign Tanker as U.S.-Flagged ‘Armada’ Heads for Florida OBAMA WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO HURT THE PEOPLE OF THE GULF STATES AFTER THE BP OIL SPILL… BIG DIFFERENCE
Phillips 66 has taken advantage of the U.S. Department of Homeland Securities’ temporary Jones Act waiver applying to tankers in response to fuel shortages in the southeast United States in the wake of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, Argus Media reported Thursday.
The foreign charter comes as an “armada” of at least 26 U.S.-flagged vessels carrying millions of gallons of fuel and other refined products head for Florida, the American Maritime Partnership said.

A divided U.S. Supreme Court reinstated disputed congressional and state voting maps in Texas, blocking two lower court rulings that said the Republican-backed district lines were the product of racial discrimination.
The orders issued Tuesday evening make it likely the disputed districts will be used in 2018, as they were with some small variations for the three previous elections. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan dissented.

Kyle Smith at National Review calls it “a Biblically-infused version of torture porn”that“may be the most vile and contemptible motion picture ever released by one of the major Hollywood studios.”
“Mother is the kind of film that makes you want to walk out, demand your money back, then file for a restraining order that would forbid the director from coming within 500 miles of any filmmaking equipment again. The following groups of people should take care to avoid Mother at all cost: pregnant women, those with nervous constitutions or heart conditions, and anyone who happens to be burdened with good taste.”

Actually, that song is the theme song for an overnight sports talk show on the weekends. It could also apply to the annual Hollywood elitist orgy of backslapping, self-congratulating, republican bashing, mutual masturbation party. I can’t remember ever wasting my time to watch these vacuous juveniles who think being paid obscene sums of money to say lines someone else has written makes them our moral and intellectual superiors.
As viscerally as they despised George W. Bush, they thought he was an uneducated, warmongering moron, and relished the fact that he never hit back. Trump is different because he used to be one of them… or so they thought. Granted, he has an immense ego. If I had billions of dollars I might too. But they hate him now because he does not engage in groupthink along with them. Keep in mind a large percentage of these Hollywood types never finished high school, because they were chasing their dream of stardom and riches.
Let me state that I think Stephen Colbert is a nasty little bedwetting punk who was probably bullied in school for being a sneaky little tattletale jackass. Then he has the good fortune to get hooked up with a popular TV show and now he can behave like the obnoxious boor that he really is. He promised beforehand to be a dick last night and he delivered.
Emmys Go Political in First Minute: Colbert’s Opener Has Trump Treason, ‘Confederate’ Jokes — and Male Handmaids
“Even treason’s better on TV,” host Stephen Colbert sings as an image of Trump and Putin flashes on screen He pointed out that Emmy voters handed out repeated awards to Bryan Cranston for playing drug kingpin Walter White on “Breaking Bad” — and said Trump was “Walter Whiter.”
The opening climaxed with former White House spokesman Sean Spicer joking about the crowd size of the event — parodying his own comments about Trump’s inauguration crowd size. http://www.thewrap.com/emmys-political-stephen-colbert-confedereate-global-warming/
Politics center stage as ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ sweeps Emmys NBC’s long-running comedy sketch show “Saturday Night Live” went into Emmys week with 22 nominations — the joint-highest total alongside “Westworld” — after a year of mercilessly spoofing the new commander-in-chief.
Its haul of five Creative Arts statuettes included outstanding guest actress in a comedy series for Melissa McCarthy, whose “Unhinged Spicey” take on Sean Spicer came to embody early criticism of the administration.
Alec Baldwin took home best supporting actor in a comedy for his Trump impersonation.
“I suppose I should say at long last, Mr President, here is your Emmy,” he joked, in a dig at Trump’s oft-stated annoyance at never having won a statuette for NBC reality show “The Apprentice” or its celebrity spin-off. https://www.yahoo.com/news/stars-flock-emmys-televisions-big-night-172234021.html

Issa Rae is the creator and star of HBO’s ‘Insecure‘ and when asked from the red carpet on Sunday who she was rooting for to win Emmy awards, she responded, “I’m rooting for everybody black! I am!”
Controversy about race is nothing new to award shows. in 2016 a hashtag on social media #OscarsSoWhite was trending after the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced its 2016 Oscar nominees. Only white actors and actresses were chosen for the top coveted categories for the second year in a row.
Hillcrest abortion clinic has FINALLY been shut down.
In the past six years, the clinic was cited four times for health and safety violations that included everything from failing to maintain proper medical credentials to maintaining supplies that were 13 years old. Hillcrest also performed a number of abortions without having a nurse present and failed to perform mandated criminal background checks on staff.
The latest inspection yielded 44 PAGES of violations which the clinic failed to correct by the August 31st deadline. It doesn’t look like they have any plans to reopen, since they had the gas cut off for non-payment and the Pennsylvania Department of Health website now lists the dump as “closed.”
Until the Satanic Temple got involved, Planned Parenthood was down to one abortion clinic in Missouri. Now they’ve got a second and reportedly have two more on the way, all thanks to the Satanic Temple’s assistance.The latest move by the Satanic Temple is to sue for unrestricted access to abortion in Missouri based on “religious freedom.”
Trump’s disapproval numbers are running at around 56%, while his approval numbers are around 39%. But, Legal Insurrection, Politico, and Victor David Hanson all seem to agree that Democrats would be naive to assume this means they’re going to win big in the midterms.
For one thing, his numbers haven’t changed since he was inaugurated. That’s unusual. Most presidents get a honeymoon period when folks are giving the new guy the benefit of the doubt.
For another, privately done research shows the so-called “resistance” may be backfiring. Hanson writes:
“There is a populist and growing resistanceto the Orwellian idea that free speech is hate speech, that equality of opportunity is defined only by equality of result, and that identity politics determines the degree of government-mandated penance and reparations. …The quiet resistance is far larger than the loud Resistanceand far more revolutionary. Its nature is still not fully understood by the elite Left.”
