Anyone here have any experience? I was recently diagnosed and starting the journey.

It is back and working. I have been a member of both sites for many years. I appreciate all the Hooboy, Daddy and totallyoz have done. I have been reading the thread about what they moderators are going to do with the site now and it is a bit of mess. Why has oz not stepped up and helped in this situation?

Google’s ‘Project Nightingale’ Gathers Personal Health Data on Millions of Americans Search giant is amassing health records from Ascension facilities in 21 states; patients not yet informed Google is engaged with one of the country’s largest health-care systems to collect and crunch the detailed personal health information of millions of Americans across 21 states. The initiative, code-named “Project Nightingale,” appears to be the biggest in a series of efforts by Silicon Valley giants to gain access to personal health data and establish a toehold in the massive health-care industry. Amazon.com Inc., AMZN -0.80% Apple Inc. AAPL 0.79% and Microsoft Corp. are also aggressively pushing into health care, though they haven’t yet struck deals of this scope. Google began Project Nightingale in secret last year with St. Louis-based Ascension, the second-largest health system in the U.S., with the data sharing accelerating since summer, according to internal documents. The data involved in the initiative encompasses lab results, doctor diagnoses and hospitalization records, among other categories, and amounts to a complete health history, including patient names and dates of birth.

They don't know if she is serious or not, but that is what some of her people are saying.

No, no, no! Not Hillary again. She turns off so many people. A political insider just told me today that team Hillary has recently been quietly spreading the word that she may enter the 2020 race if Biden melts down.

He's the first candidate I've donated to this time. I hope he continues to do well.

I use Twitter mainly to follow politics, but I'm looking to add some eye candy accounts. Any recommendations?

Steve Bannon advised him. Surprised?

I'm sure Trump will get us on the right path ASAP.

I didn't use Google+, but hiding the breach is NOT a good look.

I wish I had kept a list of characters because there are so many to keep up with. This is they guy who left a suicide note that said, “NO FOUL PLAY WHATSOEVER”. He also mentioned Michael Flynn as well as Steve Bannon, Kellyanne Conway, and Sam Clovis in recruiting documents. In addition, he met with alt right troll Charles Johnson, has ties to Newt Gingrich, and worked to take down Bill Clinton with Troopergate. What a tangled web!

Bloody hell.

We finally found out what had the POTUS so upset over the weekend. It is Manafort Monday after all.

Well, well, well. Roger seems to be in a bit of trouble. Roger Stone Sought Information on Clinton from Assange, Emails Show Ex-Trump adviser urged intermediary to ask WikiLeaks for specific dates of rival candidate’s communications Former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone privately sought information he considered damaging to Hillary Clinton from WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during the 2016 presidential campaign, according to emails reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. The emails could raise new questions about Mr. Stone’s testimony before the House Intelligence Committee in September, in which he said he “merely wanted confirmation” from an acquaintance that Mr. Assange had information about Mrs. Clinton, according to a portion of the transcript that was made public. In a Sept. 18, 2016, message, Mr. Stone urged an acquaintance who knew Mr. Assange to ask the WikiLeaks founder for emails related to Mrs. Clinton’s alleged role in disrupting a purported Libyan peace deal in 2011 when she was secretary of state, referring to her by her initials. “Please ask Assange for any State or HRC e-mail from August 10 to August 30--particularly on August 20, 2011,” Mr. Stone wrote to Randy Credico, a New York radio personality who had interviewed Mr. Assange several weeks earlier. Mr. Stone, a longtime confidant of Mr. Trump, had no formal role in his campaign at the time.

Oh, I think I should add Jeff Sessions. He said he hasn't been interviewed yet, either.

I think he's a target. They save the best for last. Others that are probably targets and haven't been interviewed: Ivanka, Jared, Jr, and Eric.

I do think the chaos is intentional, but I wouldn't say that nothing has come of anything because there have been indictments, guilty pleas, and cooperating witnesses.

In addition, Republicans on the House Intel Committee (I'm looking at you dirty Devin Nunes) refused to issue subpoenas for Roger Stone's twitter DM's which include communications with WikiLeaks and Julian Assange (not that Roger has anything to hide).

I admit to having a "thing" for Roger Stone. He fascinates me. He's bad. He plays dirty. And I can't stop watching him. When he was banned from Twitter I was heartbroken. His meltdowns were epic. In his most recent interview he says that 8 of his associates have been interviewed by Muller, but the public only knew about of them. Roger seems to be a target, and I expect the Muller team to squeeze him as hard as they have Manafort.

RNC paid nearly half a million dollars to law firm representing Hope Hicks and others in Russia probes The Republican National Committee paid nearly half a million dollars to a law firm that represents former White House communications director Hope Hicks and others in the Russia investigations, according to a new federal filing. The RNC's $451,780 payment to Trout Cacheris & Janis adds to the mounting legal fees associated with the investigations by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III and several congressional committees of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign. Hicks hired Robert Trout, founder of the law firm, as her personal attorney in September, according to news reports. The report of the payments for legal and compliance services, contained in the Federal Election Commission report filed Sunday, is the first public disclosure of RNC payments to the law firm since Hicks hired Trout. Three lawyers at the firm represent people in addition to Hicks in the investigations by Mueller and the House and Senate intelligence committees, according to the firm's website. Hicks, who was one of President Trump's most trusted and loyal aides, was interviewed by Mueller and the House and Senate intelligence panels in early 2018.

I can't think of a person in Trump's immediate orbit that I don't think isn't involved in conspiring with other governments or helping to cover up.

Well, well, well! That was interesting. I wonder how many people have flipped at this point. 5? 10? more?

I'm beginning to think he may have flipped. Would he burn the house down if he didn't?
