The fuck: “The victim, now 21, told KyCIR that for years she had considered Johnson to be a “second dad.” She became close with his daughter, Sarah, and familiar with the boozy weekend parties Johnson would throw at the “Pope’s House” — the fellowship hall next to the Heart of Fire Church. Those parties, KyCIR reported, featured scantily clad women, body shots and costumes.”

Does the Bible forbid scantily clad women at a pool party?

The Bible doesn’t explicitly forbid, nor does it need to forbid, many things that are just common sense to its adherents because Torah (and it would be true about many other religions as well) is not just about specific religious laws but about mandating higher levels of ethical, moral, and spiritual conduct: It would be technically acceptable to eat kosher food like a glutton, get drunk or to be constantly having sex with ones wife during the time that she is not menstruating.

Clearly, women, especially hot women are a distraction. Ever been to a university library and you see passionate geeks studying fervently, only to be interrupted by the sight of a pretty female sitting nearby or sifting through the shelves?

Dan Johnson was the self proclaimed Pope of the Heart of Fire Church. This so called church held weekly parties Those parties included alcohol and scantily clad women. Bikers frequently attended and there was sometimes a tattoo parlor. The church had been cited three times since 2008 for unlicensed alcohol sales. It is after one of those parties that a drunk Johnson is accused of molesting a 17 year friend of his daughter.
Johnson claimed he had been a White House chaplain, worked with the United Nations, created “safe zones” in Los Angles during the Rodney King riots and was visiting the World Trade center on 9/11 where he ministered to the injured and dying. There is no independent evidence any of those claims are true.
Johnson was also a big Trump supporter and got elected to the Kentucky legislature in 2016.
Johnson is quite clearly a con man and habitual liar. In this case, I believe the woman.

Deep State is crying uncle and telling folks enough is enough on the sexual harassment angle. Heh, in classic CIA fashion the blow-back has been 10 times worse than what they have actually accomplished.
Obviously this guy is almost certainly outside the Deep State, but by having him “kill himself” over sex allegations, it gives cover for media to slow-down and deep-six all the salacious reporting.
Also, with Mueller’s investigation /also/ blowing-back on them, they have their hands more than full. They don’t need the distraction that they lose “one of theirs” at a key juncture in those proceedings.

Sane people commit suicides when they are falsely accused. The reason is that it is impossible to prove that you are innocent if someone else’s testimony is allowed as evidence. So, it looks like almost a proof that he is innocent.

People who are unquestionably guilty sometimes kill themselves too. For example, Aaron Hernandez and Ariel Castro.

“passing entitlement reform”
Which really is the code word for privatizing Social Security and Medicare. The tactic is simple, first they cut taxes, which leads to deficits. Next, they will have a crisis and a pretext they can use to justify privatizing Social Security.
If Paul Ryan pulls it off, he will lose his congressional seat (which is why he wants to retire,) but the lobbyists will take care of him for the rest of his life.

Probably depends on the specifics of the plan and Lion’s skill as an investor. As I understand it his personal portfolio hasn’t done too well. Social Security is flawed but any replacement is likely to be worse perhaps much worse.

There is no way to really “privatize” Social Security because there is no way to handle the transition costs to a new, privatized system. The best that could be done is have a private add on to Social Security, like the Thrift Savings Plan, and let people contribute to that for retirement. Otherwise, when the system goes broke in 2034, it will have to be patched up.

Yes but it should have been privatized. Basic compound interest from the markets would have more than made up for the stupid way its setup where it simply redistributes money without earning interest. Compared to a normal return on investment everyone’s Social Security payroll cut has been pissed away into oblivion.
Otherwise, when the system goes broke in 2034, it will have to be patched up.
It should be dealt with by means testing the hell out of it.

Hmmm…
Maybe we should think on the margin here.
Isn’t it possible that this “suicide” is actually a murder? The allegation of sexual impropriety is a cover for a way to actually stage a murder as a suicide. Are we going to see more of this process used against Republican politicians, especially Trump supporters?
