Last night as I lay in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought, “Where the hell is my ceiling?"
You should send them a nasty email.

Honestly, I always assumed the 'happy holidays' thing was because Thanksgiving is right next door to Christmas and they were winding both into one greeting.
When the sky above us fell
We descended into hell
Into kingdom come
I'm not a practicing Christian and I still say Merry Christmas. Many of my friends are like me atheists, or Jewish or Muslim and they'll say Merry Christmas or similar too. I've never heard a single person in real life (as opposed to the deluded rantings of the Daily Heil or American Internet ramblings) object to referencing the most well known cultural holiday of the year.
That'd be like avoiding wishing people a Happy New Year as they might use another calendar. Even my Chinese friends ha e been happy to celebrate New Years Eve.
Sensible if people were being offended. Do you know real people who really are offended and why?
Nobody I know in the real world are offended by civilities like Merry Christmas. Over here its extremist loons of the sort who read the Daily Heil ('OMG they're banning Christmas') or the Grauniad ('others may be offended so lets not do this') who seem to be the only issue. If people stopped assuming others take offence and then fitting that into their agenda then that would be an improvement.
When has that ever stopped large corporations? The very possibility that someone somewhere might get offended is usually enough to get some executive a heart attack.

The new GOP.

Same as the old GOP, only more overt.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
In some ways, yes. But the old GOP would probably call someone saying that about the FBI a traitor.

Lewk, remember when you cared about such things?

No, Lewk, bitching about one person isn't the same as calling for a "purge" of the FBI.

Did you watch the clip? He took pains to say there were a great many good folks at the agency but that the ones that put ends before means should go. Do you think every FBI agent that deliberately mishandled a political investigation should be purged from the FBI ranks? Its a simple question - if there is no wrong doing then obviously no one should be purged. But its rather shocking (especially coming from you) that a law enforcement agency shouldn't even be investigated and bad apples not removed.
What's shocking is that representatives of a party that can't acknowledge the overwhelming evidence of severe problems in the police are now instead fixating on imagined problems in the FBI purely out of a desire to curry favour with the worst POTUS in modern memory and retain the idiot vote. Anyone who buys your lame excuse is about as bright as the people who buy the "vaccine safety" ploy.

Mueller is reportedly zeroing in on the Trump campaign's data operation — and the RNC

Shits about to get real nasty.
"In a field where an overlooked bug could cost millions, you want people who will speak their minds, even if they’re sometimes obnoxious about it."
"Facebook said in September that about 25% of the ads purchased by Russians during the election "were geographically targeted," though many analysts have said they find it difficult to believe that foreign entities would have had the kind of granular knowledge of American politics necessary to target specific demographics and voting precincts."
Really? They had access to the DNC info and the Secretary of State's laptop (highly likely).
The FBI has congressional oversight. And they don't just report to 'the federal government', but are held accountable by elected officials that serve on special committees and subcommittees. You've got a weird way of putting things into binary categories. As if "Police" are only accountable at the state level?

We've reached stage 3 of the Narcissist's Prayer:
That didn’t happen.
And if it did happen, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was that bad, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is a big deal, that’s not my fault.
And if it was my fault, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did mean it…
You deserved it.

Such an embarrassment

This is the morning that just keeps giving
Trump fires all members of HIV/AIDS council without explanation

and to add some filler:
Pence's inaction, under the guise of "morals" contributed to an HIV outbreak in Indiana
The terms vulnerable and transgender are both off limits for the CDC
Trump thinks/claims that all Hatians have AIDs
"In a field where an overlooked bug could cost millions, you want people who will speak their minds, even if they’re sometimes obnoxious about it."
Your link doesn't work and I couldn't find any other news outlet reporting this, despite the fact that it should be rather big news.
