This time last year I had two FBI agents show up at my front door - no trouble it had to do wiith ....something else. Incredibly impressive. One made Captain America look,like a wimp.

The Trump boys don't strike me as being very sharp. I'm sure Donnie Jr. was a presumptuous ass.

My office entryway was under camera surveillance 24/7. Most of the agents were really super guys. We'd see each other in the building all the time and were cordial in passing--to the point of making joke with each other sometimes.

On 9/11 our entire building went on a lockdown (as did all buildings containing "potential targets" I was told later.) My husband was trying to get into the building to me and there were armed guards there blocking access. One of the armed guards was one of the field agents from down the hall, and he recognized Kevin from the video surveillance. He asked my husband "doesn't your wife work at the Pro Bono Center?" Kevin said "Yes, I just want to take her home." The agent said he understood completely, let him in, and told him to make sure we let him know when we left...

As we left that agent made a comment to me that he was glad he'd seen me with my husband in the hallway every day so he was able to let him in.

There were a couple other times during the four years I worked in that building when I got to see those guys at work, and they were mostly impressive.

The douchebag loser of the other douchebag loser? It is like that old Bob Newhart show where the brothers had the same names.
