She declined formally to transmit the articles to the Senate on Wednesday evening after the House voted to impeach President Donald Trump.

 

Unfortunately for them, the Senate can act, regardless — and would vote to acquit.

 

That’s because the Constitution is absolutely clear about the Senate’s authority. Article I, Section 3 says: “The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.”

 

That is all.

 

The Chief Justice presides over a trial involving the president, but the Senate makes the rules. And the Senate is controlled by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who regards what the House has done with contempt.

 

You’re in Cocaine Mitch’s court, now.

Second Chinese national busted for illegally entering Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort

 

A Chinese national was arrested Wednesday for illegally entering President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Florida and refusing to leave — the second time a person from China was arrested for trespassing on the property this year, reports said.

 

Jing Lu, 56, was ordered off the property by the club’s private security officers, but she returned to take photos and the club called police to arrest her, according to The Palm Beach Post.

 

When Palm Beach County police arrived to arrest the woman, it was discovered that she had an expired visa.

 

Lu was charged with loitering and prowling. She was being held Wednesday night at the Palm Beach County jail.

 

Trump, who is expected to travel to the resort with his family for the holidays, was heading to Michigan for a campaign rally on Wednesday as the US House voted to impeach him.

 

The arrest comes after an April incident when Secret Service agents busted a woman carrying a pair of Chinese passports and a thumb drive at the resort.

 

Yujing Zhang, 32, was trying to gain access to an event advertised on Chinese-language social media by Li “Cindy” Yang, the South Florida massage parlor entrepreneur who operated a consulting business selling access to President Trump and his family, the Miami Herald reported.

 

There was no indication on Wednesday night that the two incidents were connected.

Luka Magnotta doc ‘Don’t F–k With Cats’ too ‘disturbing’ for Netflix viewers

 

A new documentary on Netflix has left viewers shaken by the subject’s inhumane, murderous behavior and the film’s graphic nature.

 

The three-part series “Don’t F–k With Cats,” which debuted Wednesday, chronicles the story of amateur sleuths who spent time hunting an internet killer named Luka Magnotta, a Canadian man who was captured in 2012 in Berlin after a worldwide manhunt. Then just 29, he murdered a lover with an ice pick, dismembered his body and allegedly ate parts of the victim’s corpse before shipping a hand and a foot to Canadian political offices.

 

But what seems to disturb viewers most — and is a nod to the documentary’s blatant title — are videos made by Magnotta and posted online in 2010. One video, titled “1 boy 2 kittens,” depicts him killing kittens by putting them in plastic bags and suffocating them by sucking out air using a vacuum cleaner; another shows him feeding other kittens to a python.

 

Netflix viewers took to Twitter using a hashtag The Post can’t publish — because it uses the full expletive in the title — to describe the movie as “brutal.”

 

“I’ve never seen something so disturbing in all my life and I’ve watched some tough crime documentaries. what a sick individual,” one person wrote. Shocked people flooded Twitter with a deluge of superlatives, ranging from “horrific” to “f–king crazy,” and “upsetting” to “shocking.”

 

One Twitter user cautioned viewers to “BE WARNED before watching. I had to close my eyes & I almost threw up & I can handle watching a lot.” Another tweeter said to avoid seeing the program if you’re “triggered” by animal abuse, adding: “Didn’t realize what kind of show it was so I played a trailer — turned it off after few seconds and started crying.” And yet another viewer offered that “some of those images are going to take a long time to leave my head.”

 

Other viewers were disturbed that portions of the animal abuse videos were shown at all in the film. “I’m kind of angry at Netflix for using real footage of the kittens killed by that motherf–ker,” posted Twitter user @SilenceSaturne. “It was so unnecessary.”

 

Another person said they “had instant regrets” when they started watching. “It just took me 17 minutes to come to the complete realization and just … stop,” @rocketslifting posted.

 

One Twitter commenter had a vengeful reaction to the cat killer, saying the documentary is “genuinely the most f–ked up thing I’ve ever watched. Would happily slowly torture this guy til I’m satisfied he’s suffered enough like the cats he killed.”

 

To that end, Magnotta, now 37, was sentenced to life in prison in 2014. Three years later, he got engaged to a fellow inmate he met on a dating website for prisoners and got married the same year.

Top U.S., Russian Military Leaders Meet to Improve Mutual Communication

 

Today's meeting was the first time Army Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Russian Army Gen. Valery Gerasimov, chief of the General Staff, have met face to face. The two military leaders have spoken by phone since Milley took office in October to avoid conflicts in military operations and risks of miscalculations.

 

The two military leaders discussed Syria, strategic stability and a variety of operational and strategic issues to enhance deconfliction and improve understanding to reduce risk, Joint Staff spokesperson Air Force Col. DeDe S. Halfhill said in a written statement issued after the meeting.

 

The meeting is the latest in a series that began in February 2017 in Baku, Azerbaijan, between then-Joint Chiefs Chairman Marine Corps Gen. Joe Dunford and Gerasimov. Before that, U.S. and Russian military leaders had not met since early 2014 – before Russia illegally annexed Crimea and intervened in eastern Ukraine. Other meetings have occurred in Turkey, Finland and Austria. This is the first such meeting in Switzerland.

 

The need for communication among nations in conflict areas is especially keen in Syria. In 2015, Turkey shot down a Russian fighter jet that strayed into Turkish airspace from Syria. The battlespace in Syria is jumbled, with Turkey operating independently, Russian troops working with Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces, and U.S. forces operating through indigenous forces against a resurgence of ISIS. Because the chances of a miscalculation in Syria are high, the U.S.-Russia meetings aim to reduce the risk.

 

The military leaders have more to discuss. On Dec. 16, U.S. Coast Guard officials protested that a Russian spy ship was operating in an unsafe manner off the coast of South Carolina. Also, the U.S. destroyer USS Ross was tailed by a Russian ship after it entered the Black Sea. There have been incidents of Russian aircraft buzzing ships and crowding U.S. planes.

 

The U.S. National Defense Strategy sees Russia as trying to reshape the international order. Milley addressed this during his confirmation hearing in July. We are living in a period of great power competition within a very complex and dynamic security environment, he said. ''My parents' … generation … fought to establish an international order that has prevented great power war for over seven decades, and it's currently under the most stress since the end of the Cold War.

 

From East Asia to the Middle East to Eastern Europe, authoritarian actors are testing the limits of the international system and seeking regional dominance while challenging international norms and undermining U.S. interest, he continued. Our goal should be to sustain great power peace that has existed since World War II and deal firmly with all of those who might challenge us.

 

The meeting in Bern, Switzerland, is not an effort to return the U.S.-Russia relationship to normal, U.S. officials stressed, noting that Russian actions in Ukraine, Georgia, Syria and Libya have brought condemnation to Russia and that Russian efforts to divide NATO and its actions to undermine democratic elections are worrisome.

 

U.S. officials stressed that the United States does not coordinate actions with Russia. Rather, they explained, the meeting is an effort to ensure that communications remain open. Officials pointed out that even during the height of the Cold War, U. S. officials communicated with Soviet Union leaders.

 

The military leaders did not discuss political or policy issues, officials said, adding that the meeting is limited to the military sphere between two military professionals and that the discussions between Milley and Gerasimov are confidential.

Science journal @nature published a paper on 'quantum supremacy:' supercomputers processing in 200 secs what a normal computer would process in 10,000 yrs.

 

They've since published a letter signed by 13 academics criticising their use of "violent language"

Instead of ‘supremacy’ use ‘quantum advantage’

 

 

We take issue with the use of ‘supremacy’ when referring to quantum computers that can out-calculate even the fastest supercomputers (F. Arute et al. Nature 574, 505–510; 2019). We consider it irresponsible to override the historical context of this descriptor, which risks sustaining divisions in race, gender and class. We call for the community to use ‘quantum advantage’ instead.

 

The community claims that quantum supremacy is a technical term with a specified meaning. However, any technical justification for this descriptor could get swamped as it enters the public arena after the intense media coverage of the past few months.

 

In our view, ‘supremacy’ has overtones of violence, neocolonialism and racism through its association with ‘white supremacy’. Inherently violent language has crept into other branches of science as well — in human and robotic spaceflight, for example, terms such as ‘conquest’, ‘colonization’ and ‘settlement’ evoke the terra nullius arguments of settler colonialism and must be contextualized against ongoing issues of neocolonialism.

 

Instead, quantum computing should be an open arena and an inspiration for a new generation of scientists.
