And even if heā€™s completely incapable of admitting errors in judgement or showing Grace to others including a member of Congress he falsely smeared, Dreamers here through no fault of their own, or the former wives repeatedly beaten and verbally abused with pure cruelty by a friend he greatly admires.

Updated | Israeli police will recommend indicting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on corruption charges, the premier confirmed on Wednesday.

Netanyahu said he remained confident that he wonā€™t be prosecuted despite the coming recommendation from the head of police, Roni Alsheich.

Just hoping

Sorry, but isnā€™t this just another version of what people are saying about Porter? ā€œGood guy, bad decision.ā€ Of course, Kellyā€™s made a lot of bad decisions, starting with agreeing to work for Trump. Eventually those bad decisions define the person.

The person whose US election meddling actually had an impact on the outcomeā€¦

Kelly will be out by St. Patrickā€™s Day.

No, heā€™s not a good man, even if he tried to play one on TV for a while.

He has lost all my unearned respect I had for him, pretty much before this, but definitely now.

Edit and Iā€™m thinking now he was never a ā€œgood manā€.

ā€œIt means their human.ā€ Whose human is he referring to? Iā€™m confused. Oh ā€œIt means THEYā€™RE human.ā€ Come on TPM.

Nobody should be surprised ā€” Dear Leader believes that all racists and bigots like Nazis and KKKers are good people.

Itā€™s party line, now, folks.

The problem with spell check is that almost no one, myself included, checks anything closely if they donā€™t see anything underlined! I donā€™t see even a small percent of errors I have until someone likes something I write and then I take the time to rereadā€¦sometimes!

This really doesnā€™t sound like a ā€˜John Kelly Problemā€™ so much as it is a systems problem within the Republican power establishment.

Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets.

The provenance of that quote is a little fuzzy but I think it came from Demingā€¦

In any event, this guy rose up through a succession of Republican bosses that I am sure performed background checks and none of them cared. His is not an isolated case. Nor is the situation isolated to the White House. But it does seem to be an all too familiar story coming from Republican power centers.

I donā€™t want ā€œa good manā€ next to the asswipe with the button. I want someone who makes good decisions, including at least not lying in ways that can be disproven with a few minutes research.

Itā€™s seeming pretty clear Kelly knew this guy beat women but kept him on to shore up one flank against Ivanka and Jared. He knew about the photo and considered that the trip-wireā€”once itā€™s out heā€™s shocked, shocked to find out blah blah. Thatā€™s not a good manā€™s bad decision. Thatā€™s an amoral manā€™s decision, a hateful, authoritarian, bigoted man whoā€™s been behind a lot of this crap from when he was with Homeland Security. Heā€™s been outed for a while now. So thatā€™s enough of that.
