  1. Bail bondsmen loan money to allow people out of jail, but keep maybe 10 to 20% of the bail as interest. This applies even if you win your case.

  2. In addition to the robbery by Trump appointed cabinet heads, a major concern of mine is the driving highly skilled and experienced merit employees of these organizations to leave, either retire or otherwise. This will be hard to re-establish once we get them out. We will be losing both considerable hardwon expertise and institutional history. Even rehiring under a new administration, the structure of the organizations have been disrupted so the integration of activities will take more time to re-establish than simply rehiring many who have not retired. An additional factor is that the outside consultants, including scientists and engineers, that had prepared the responses to the regulations have found that market drying up. I am referring to those preparing the technical plans by which the regulated parties organize their business and actions to comply with the law (not the litigation trying to avoid it). These professionals have invested considerable time and money in their training and have to move on to other things. Once we start enforcing regulations again, these consulting companies will certainly scramble to provide the services again, but with lesser expertise than previously. When new regulations are promulgated (or enforced), there is a period of “seat-or-the-pants” efforts while a standard of practice is worked out between regulators and regulated parties. With new regulators unfamiliar with the regulations they are enforcing, this period could last a year or two. During this awkward period, some activities are approved that should not be (though not as bad as nonenforcement) and some overkill is forced on the regulated industries that costs them more money than would be strictly necessary.

  3. Cenk, the teacher in Utah did not “take Trump’s advice.” That incident happened in 2014.
    Suggest not getting your news from tweets.

  4. Please don’t make shows shorter when John is on, or have him starting on the first hour. I love when John is on, and I think he and Cenk play well together.

    1. Hour one was 75 min, about 15 min longer then usual. Thus, hour 2 (because they have a schedule/time constraint) is about 15 min shorter then usual. It has nothing to do with who is on.

  5. I’m just waiting for the Trump family to play their “Trump Card” – letting their polluting powers combine to summon Captain Pollution! We’re going to need to find Whoopi Goldberg & Levar Burton if we want to have a chance (plus a a white boy, a Russian, an Asian, and a South American!).

    PS- Every time I want to be mad at John for not being Ana he uses his manly wiles on me! TWO shirt buttons undone, it’s not fair!!!

    PPS- Does this mean we’re not doing the “Dinesh D’Souza is a Scumbucket” story?! =(
