TSB: The end of the world was supposed to be the 23rd but "experts" say it has only been postponed: send donations now!! And now even Hillary Clinton has figured out Puerto Rico is a catastrophe! gwb exerpt:

But of course, even leaving the island is a process fraught with difficulty.
With the island’s main airport still crippled, Gonzalez Cancel said he needed to secure a special waiver from authorities to obtain the medical evacuation flight for baby Gabriellyz. Travelers at the airport on Sunday were told that passengers who do not already have tickets may not be able to secure flights out until October 4.
With the situation on the island set to get worse before it gets better, some – Hillary Clinton among them – are calling on President Donald Trump to send the navy to Puerto Rico to help with the recovery effort. The devastation caused by Maria is similar to that wrought by hurricanes Katrina, Harvey and Irma, Reuters noted. But Puerto Rico’s remoteness and fragile infrastructure have made the logistics of organizing a disaster response very challenging.
Dr. Gonzalez Cancel also said the island needs the military to help with its recovery effort.

TSB: It's fun to see Trump give the NFL a gentle shove down the hill after they are already imploding. Most of the games aren't worth watching but I wouldn't miss a chance to check out the COWBOYS & GIRLS playing anyone. I just have a great time rooting for whoemsoever they are playing. Same with the over the hill PACKERS. Who knows, somebody might burn a pile of jerseys. And now Puerto Rico is a cash only economy so no sense robbing the grocery store, just wait til the store closes and knock off whoever comes out last with the cash. gwb

Puerto Rico is doing a lot better in reality than you would think from reading all the endless social media about how Trump isn't doing anything. I checked the island tabloid, El Vocero, today and read about the military flights bringing supplies into the airport, the 15 helos brought in to get supplies to towns still cut off by road, the daily ration of 2 MREs and 4 bottles of water the National Guard is giving out to whoever needs it as well as thousands of tents, cots, and generators, the barges that have arrived with 15,000 food vans, the gasoline supplies that have gotten almost 200 gas stations refilled, the Caribbean FEMA response that the PR Governor appreciates, the FAA techs that will have the airport repaired and opened for commercial flights tomorrow, and on and on. By the time Trump goes down to hand out meals in a tent, the emergency response will be pretty well in hand.

More on PR: I saw a tweet from some tourist waiting at the airport who is complaining that the conditions are miserably hot. "It's inhumane." Like he thinks someone did this to him. Hey pal, you chose to vacation in the Caribbean during hurricane season; nobody did this to you, it's just that hot normally. You'll get used it it. I lived ther in a little house with no AC for two years, and never really minded.

TSB: FBI Arrests Several NCAA Coaches Amid Broad Crackdown On College Basketball Corruption: "WHAT HAPPENED"?? I can't believe these coaches are taking kickbacks from NIKE etc after forcing their players to wear certain apparel..that's racis.

I'll bet Hillary thought about calling for this in her campaign but was talked out of it by senior advisors who thought going after Putin was more important.

TSB: NFL Posts Job Ad For "Crisis Communications Strategist" To Advise League Executives
North Korea Said To Seek Help From Republicans "To Figure Out Trump"
In what may be the most bizarre development of the day, the WaPo reports that in their ongoing feud with President Trump, the North Korean government has quietly sought the help of an unlikely counterparty: Republicans. "Their No. 1 concern is Trump. They can’t figure him out."
Big demand for crisis PR specialists? I wonder who got that job investigating alien invasions? gwb

TSB: You know you are living in an Oligarchy when a story like this is completely suppressed by the main stream media: Massive Hack At Deloitte: Entire Internal Email System Compromised, Client Emails Exposed

The 3rd largest accounting firm in the world which advises hundreds of large corporations on cybersecurity had it's email system hacked by criminals and did not notify ANYBODY for over a year!! A back door to Microsoft's Cloud was used and theoretically the criminals gained access to all of those corporations' emails going back for the past s or 6 years. ike Equifax - high-end cybersecurity advice to some of the world’s biggest banks, multinational companies, media enterprises, pharmaceutical firms and government agencies. Here the Guardian reports that Deloitte clients "across all of these sectors had material in the company email system that was breached. The companies include household names as well as US government departments."

So far, six of Deloitte’s clients have been told their information was “impacted” by the hack. Deloitte’s internal review into the incident is ongoing.

The hacker compromised the firm’s global email server through an “administrator’s account” that, in theory, gave them privileged, unrestricted “access to all areas”.
Embarrassingly, the administrator level hack required only a single password and did not have “two-step“ verification, much like Deloitte and other companies strongly urge everyone to do. (Once again, total spectrum dominance bites back and the response of the government and press is ..... "crickets" gwb)
