If Trump could force a justice to leave, I'd expect someone like Breyer to be pushed out, a left winger.

There are meditation audios with subliminal messages. Those messages can be good, indifferent or bad.
I think meditation that gets the qi flowing, maybe the same as kundalini, is a good thing. Some kinds of meditation, like TM, seemed to be a mixed bag.
I never understood why D-Wave systems is talking about creating a consciousness. Where is their evidence?
What they are doing is creating a system whereby a number of qubits (electron spins) can be forced to find a configuration conforming to a set of constraints. Thus the system automatically produces the solution to the question: what configuration conforms to these constraints?
That's what quantum computing is, as I understand it. If you can encode your problem that way (and prime number problems can be so encoded, so goodbye to prime number encryption) then you can get a solution in very little time, that might have taken years or more with the step by step method of traditional computing.
But that doesn't mean it's a consciousness.
That Muslim psychiatrist that shot up the military base a few years ago surely knew he wouldn't have a long medical career after it. So, yeah, it's not impossible.
Q said that if one of {RR, RM} is dirty, the other is too. I am pretty well convinced they are both dirty, rather than clean.
I think she's an important figure going forward.
(1) Pelosi welcomed her as a young woman coming to Congress. She will be protected and groomed for a big career by the Dems.
(2) Primaries followed by automatic general elections are how important people are inserted. Hillary was inserted that way, so was Obama in their runs for Senate.
(3) further to (2), these tend to happen in big Dem cities, NY and Chicago.
(4) the primary is used because it's easy to swing. Turnout was 3%. The voting machines could have been rigged to give Ocasio enough votes to win there.
(5) as noted by someone else, she's acting like a player. Right after winning she said she would not go to the DC Women's March event this weekend. She's running to the center, the winning formula.
(6) A Puerto Rican in NYC will do well. More PR'ans will be moving from the island to NYC because they cannot or will not recover from last year's hurricane. Easier to move to NYC.
I made a logic error in (3). Since Hillary and Obama started in the Senate, they were running statewide in guaranteed Dem states (NY and IL) where the Dem candidate always wins. Ocasio just ran in one district in NYC, also a likely guaranteed Dem district.
