I spent ALL of last evening with McCrapee.

Step 1 - consolidate licenses (because some came with computers). Easy, but took a while

Step 2 - all existing licenses were expired, so needed to download new versions (can't just change the license). Download outage. May be 24 hours. 

Step 3 - tried to get a refund and replace with AVG, but the subscription was paid for too long ago

Step 4 = download outage ended. Had to REMOVE and reinstall on 4 computers

Step 5 - Two computers would not remove McCrappee. One did on a reinstall; the other took their removal tool

And after something like 3 hours, I have the systems working safely again.

And when the McCrappee renewal comes up, I'm taking my business elsewhere

I totally support this. That software might have been okay in the 90's, but they absolutely haven't kept up with the technology.

Did you catch this? Among all the executive orders that have gone out to get rid of DEI in the government, Trump got rid of one more thing: Affirmative Action. 

I think Trump put in more work in the first three days of his presidency than Biden did for the entirety of his term.

And then there's this

"The Justice Department is directing its federal prosecutors to investigate any state or local officials who stand in the way of beefed-up enforcement of immigration laws under the Trump administration, according to a memo to the entire workforce obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday."

Egads! The RULE OF LAW EXISTS AGAIN!

Here's a question: how much money have all the various countries given to Ukraine to fight their war? I ask because in a story on which Canadian provincial premier is actually working with the Trump administration also mentioned that Canada gave $20 billion to Ukraine. I'm wondering if there is a web page that tracks all the donations that have come in.

Welcome to the returning member of the circular firing squad: Steve Bannon. "Here we are, seven years later, and history is repeating itself. Bannon is attacking MAGA insiders, using vitriolic invectives to score political points. It’s the same as before; only the names have changed."

I've never listened to Bannon, so I have no intention of starting now.

The UK Is Lost: You Know Who's to Blame for Those Little Dead Girls in Southport?

If you said "Amazon," give yourself a gold star. Not the police or social system that was warned about this guy multiple times and did nothing.

Trump 'misrepresented' Hunter Biden laptop letter, John Brennan complains after losing security clearance

Says the man who misrepresented and covered up the laptop.

Boohoo... Brennan should be looking at charges, you know election interference, perjury.

These people push a belief that cursed objects (guns, knives, narwhal tusks, whatever) cause people to do evil things.

This is literally a belief in voodoo.

And these same types will then turn around and yell, "trust #TheScience!!!".

Trump did the one EO I was really hoping for.... 

President Donald J. Trump signs an Executive Order for Combating Human Trafficking and Online Child Exploitation in the United States, at the White House Summit on Human Trafficking in honor of the 20th Anniversary of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 Friday, Jan. 31, 2020, in the East Room of the White House.

Reply to vxbush in 11:

How do you get a laid off DEI worker off your front step?

Pay them for the pizza!

What is the most common phrase uttered by a laid off DEI worker?

Do you want fries with that?

Tell them where the free handouts are downtown.
