The longest-serving Democratic member of the Federal Election Commission, expected to take over as chair in four months, and her top staffer are behind an anti-Trump and anti-GOP crusade, according to a new report from a critic.

In a series of blog posts, the Republican National Lawyers Association questioned the fairness of Commissioner Ellen Weintraub and her counsel, Tom Moore, and compared the attacks on Trump to the bias FBI officials showed to President Trump.

  Wow. Forget the other stuff. THIS tweet is some champion-class psychological projection. Who are we talking about here? https://t.co/3RqSgNzI4t

"All this political jousting indicates one thing: that Commissioner Weintraub started off with a clear bias against Donald Trump, his lawyer, and his administration," said one of the postings from RNLA Executive Director Michael Thielen.

Weintraub, he noted, has been harshly critical of Trump and his staff, including outgoing Chief Counsel Don McGahn, a former FEC commissioner. In the past, she has been criticized for supporting efforts to regulate conservative websites like the Drudge Report.

  Remember those claims of voter fraud in 2016? After @MESecOfState Matt Dunlap sued to get the files of the presidential commission he was frozen out of, all he found was a “Halloween ghost story.” https://t.co/vzCC6l6M01

  — Ellen L Weintraub (@EllenLWeintraub) August 4, 2018

In his first post, Thielen said that Weintraub’s anti-Trump bias is “pale by comparison” to the criticism leveled by former FBI official Peter Strozk. He cited her writings and tweets as evidence.

In a second, the Republican Lawyer blog turned to her counsel, Moore, giving him credit for the Twitter account “alt_FEC,” one of several “alt” sites that were created inside federal agencies to challenge the Republican administration after Trump’s election. Alt_FEC describes itself as “The unofficial #Resistance team of the U.S. Federal Election Commission.”

Hill reporter Rudy Takala identified Moore as one behind the alt_FEC account, said the blog.

That account has ripped Fox News, even suggesting that cable companies cancel carrying the channel.

  Here’s a question. The more people watch #FoxNews, the less well-informed they are about basic facts. Arguably, FOX is tearing at the fabric of our democracy. They have a 1st Amendment right to exist, but not to be carried by cable companies. So: Why do cable companies carry it? https://t.co/0Ttqvrl5EQ

It is unclear why Twitter allows anonymous "alt" sites run by federal agency critics of the president and his administration.

Neither Weintraub nor Moore responded to an email request for comment on the RNLA report.

Thielen asked in his second post, “How can Commissioner Weintraub's office be viewed as fair, neutral, impartial when such nasty ad hominem attacks at President Trump are being published by her personal staff? It simply cannot."

In that report, several anti-Trump tweets were cited. The account has described Trump as nasty and deranged. It has also backed proposals from Weintraub.

“Since President Trump took office, Weintraub's personal staff has been tweeting almost daily invective about President Trump and Republicans on the Twitter account altFEC, self-described as ‘The unofficial Resistance team of the U.S. Federal Election Commission.’ ‘Resistance’ means resistance to the Trump Administration,” wrote Thielen.

[Wow! Make this washable Valentine plate with scrapbook paper by using dishwasher safe Mod Podge!]

You can knock me over with a feather. Well, almost.

I recently learned that there is a special Mod Podge. One that make craft projects dishwasher safe!

Imagine that!

So of course I had to give it a try. Of course!

Since it is so close to Valentine’s Day, I decided to make a Valentine plate — a plate that I can use to serve up yummy Valentine cookies!

Here’s what you’ll need for this project:

-   A plain glass plate from the dollar store
-   Valentine scrapbook paper
-   Special Mod Podge (it has a blue label and says that it is dishwasher safe)
-   Foam brush
-   Waxed paper

[Here are the supplies that you'll need.]

First, spread some Mod Podge on the back of the plate. When you have a good coat on it, put the plate upside down on a piece of waxed paper.

[Spread Mod Podge on the back of the plate.]

Then, spread some Mod Podge on the FRONT side of the scrapbook paper. Yup, you read that right. Put it on the side with the design on it.

Place the front side of the paper to the back side of the plate. (This is so the pattern of the paper can be seen.)

Gently press the paper to the plate. Because the plate is curved, you will get some wrinkles in the paper. You can either accept the wrinkles or you could make some cuts into the paper to make it lay flat.

I didn’t care about the wrinkles. They weren’t obvious. I suppose if the pattern on the paper wasn’t so ‘busy’ that wrinkles might be more noticeable.

[Put the front of the scrap book paper on the back side of the plate.]

Let the plate dry 2-3 hours. When it is dry, cut the excess paper off.

[Wow! Make this washable Valentine plate with scrapbook paper by using dishwasher safe Mod Podge!]

Ta da! You’re almost finished.

Apply 2-3 more coats of Mod Podge making sure that you wait 2-3 hours between applications. Also, make sure that the edges of the paper is glued snugly down to the plate. It would be horrid to have water get under an unglued spot and ruin the paper on your lovely Valentine plate.

[Here's the finished plate.]

Isn’t that plate a cutie?

[Here's the finished plate full of cookies.]

When I use it to serve sugar cookies, everything looks so delicious — both the plate and the cookies!

[Yum! I love sugar cookies!]

The label on the Mod Podge said to wait 28 days before washing the item in the dishwasher. Twenty-eight days?!?

Of course I couldn’t wait that long to use it. So, I’m just using it with food that won’t really get the plate dirty. I’ll just wipe off the plate with a damp wash cloth until the 28 days are past.

Now let’s think about this craft for a moment. You could make a plate for any holiday — St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

It would be fun to do a birthday plate that you used for your grandchildren’s birthday.

Your granddaughters could use a small salad plate and a fun scrapbook paper to make a dish to hold jewelry. She could put it on a glass for a special drinking glass at your house. She could put it on the outside of a vase for flowers. She could put it on a tray that you get from a thrift store for a snazzy serving tray.

The possibilities are endless!

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about dishwashers?

answer: A dishwasher-safe  Mod Podge exists. It shows that scrapbook paper can be adhered to a dishwasher clean glass plate using dishwasher-safe Mod Podge. The instructions are to spread the coating need to attach the paper to the glass, next, place the paper over the glass, then sprinkle some Mod Podge on the glass side of the paper. Lastly, let the coating dry for two to three hours.

text: This is not clear and it is also unnecessary since it doesn't answer the question

refinement: A dishwasher-safe  Mod Podge exists. Lastly, let the coating dry for two to three hours.

text: Does not adequately answer the question.

refinement: A dishwasher-safe  Mod Podge exists. It has a blue label that says that it is dishwasher safe. You have to wait 28 days before washing the item that you have made in the dishwasher.

answer: Mod Podge make items dishwasher safe. They're not completely safe from leaks from water, so the instruction is that 28 days have to pass before dishwashing the plate. Otherwise, the plate can be used but it is advised to soak it in water for a long time.

text: Mod Podge doesn't make an item dishwasher safe.

refinement: Mod Podge exists that is dishwasher safe. They're not completely safe from leaks from water, so the instruction is that 28 days have to pass before dishwashing the plate. Otherwise, the plate can be used but it is advised to soak it in water for a long time.

text: This doesn't make much sense.

refinement: A dishwasher-safe  Mod Podge exists. It has a blue label that says that it is dishwasher safe. You have to wait 28 days before washing the item that you have made in the dishwasher.

answer: The text indicates that the Mod Podge used in this project is dishwasher safe. Meaning, the paper on the finished plate can be washed in the dishwasher without risk of damage.

answer: The product used in the tutorial is a dishwasher safe version. Crafts that use regular Mod Podge cannot be cleaned in the dishwasher, but this version of Mod Podge changes that. Still, 28 days have to pass after applying the Mod Podge before it can be safely put in the dishwasher.

answer: The text indicates that there is a special Mod Podge available that is safe for use in a dishwasher. It also indicates that products made with this special Mod Podge can be used to serve food and can also be cleaned in a dishwasher.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize what the text says about uses for dishwasher safe Mod Podge.

answer: The dishwasher safe Mod Podge is good for crafting projects like creating a Valentine plate. Projects like this can be used for many different occasions, such as St. Patrick's Day, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. One potential use is for making a stylish serving tray. The dishwasher safe Mod Podge makes projects easy to clean. The craft must be allowed to dry for at least 2-3 hours between coats of Mod Podge before washing in the dishwasher.

answer: The text discusses how dishwasher safe Mod Podge can be used to create a washable Valentine plate with scrapbook paper. The Mod Podge can be used to glue the paper to a glass plate, and can be applied multiple times to ensure adhesion. The Mod Podge can also be used to personalize almost any type of project. Throughout the process, dishes should be cleaned with a damp cloth to ensure they remain clean.

answer: The text tells how to use dishwasher safe Mod Podge to make a washable Valentine plate from scratch. It features a lot of messy steps because it uses Mod Podge that's not dishwasher safe. Author only uses it for a Valentine plate because it's about Valentine's Day, understood. Step by step instructions are given by the author. This text doesn't mention many other uses for dishwasher safe Mod Podge, but the image of the DIY plate suggests it can be used to hold a host of other things, like birthdays, St. Patrick's Day, Halloween, etc. Apparently dishes and vases are considered. Makes sense because dishwasher-safe Mod Podge is safe to use with food, and also because it's washable.

answer: The text describes how to make a Valentine's Day-themed scrapbook plate. It suggests themed plates could be made for other holidays, including St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and birthdays. Other potential uses are crafts for grandchildren including a jewelry dish, a special drinking glass, a flower case, or a serving tray.

[Edward St John Neale, British Chargé d'Affaires in Japan in 1864] [Lieutenant-Colonel Neale in 1863] [Franco-Anglo-Japanese conference on the French ship _Sémiramis_, 2 July 1863, following the Namamugi incident
_Forefront:_ French interpreter Blekman, Japanese interpreter.
_Background (from left to right):_ Three Japanese governors of Yokohama, Duchesne de Bellecourt, _Daimyō_ Sakai-Hida-no-Kami, Colonel Neale (British representative in Japan), Admiral Jaurès, Admiral Kuper ] [Colonel Neale led the Bombardment of Kagoshima, on board the flagship _Euralyus_ in August 1863.]

EDWARD ST. JOHN NEALE (1812–1866) was a British Lieutenant-Colonel and Diplomat who was active in Asia in the 1860s. He was the Chargé d'affaires of Great Britain in Japan in 1862–1863. Neale, who had been stationed in Beijing from 1860 as Secretary of the Legation following the settlement of the Second Opium War,[1] was transferred to Japan in March 1862, when Rutherford Alcock went home on leave. Alcock returned to Japan in 1864 (to be replaced by Sir Harry Parkes as British Minister in Japan in 1865).

Actions in Japan

Following the murder of Charles Lennox Richardson in September 1862, Neale exercised great caution in his response to the Japanese authorities, earning the furious opprobrium of the Western community in Yokohama, who called for immediate retribution. He was eventually vindicated by the British Government and appointed CB in 1863 for his coolness.[2] In March 1863, the Emperor of Japan issued the Order to expel barbarians, which led Neale to issue an ultimatum to the Japanese government, which was on the brink of starting a war with foreign powers in order to return to the isolation policy.[3] Neale was extremely vocal when the Bakufu, under pressure from the Emperor, was finally forced to issue a declaration promulgating the end of relations with foreigners. The order was forwarded to foreign legations by Ogasawara Zusho no Kami on 24 June 1863.[4] Lieutenant-Colonel Neale, responded in very strong terms, equating the move with a declaration of war:

A few days later, on 2 July 1863, Colonel Neale led the negotiations for the reparations following the 1862 Namamugi incident, in which foreigners were attacked and one killed by a party from Satsuma,[5] The failure of Satsuma to apologize and pay for reparations led to the Bombardment of Kagoshima by the Royal Navy in August 1863, in which Neale participated on board the flagship _Euralyus_.[6]

Modern appraisal

Neale recently received a rather mixed review in the 2004 book by Cortazzi on the relations between Japan and Great Britain:

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does the text say about the actions in Japan?

answer: In Japan, Colonel Edward St. John Neale was the Chargé d'affaires for Great Britain in 1862-1863 and led the negotiations surrounding the consequences of the Namamugi incident. He also participated in the Bombardment of Kagoshima. The review of his actions was mixed, but he generally showed coolness under pressure and was considered to have exercised great caution when faced with difficult circumstances.

text: Missing the part about Neale issuing an ultimatum.

refinement: In Japan, Colonel Edward St. John Neale was the Chargé d'affaires for Great Britain in 1862-1863 and led the negotiations surrounding the consequences of the Namamugi incident. He also participated in the Bombardment of Kagoshima. When the Emperor of Japan issued the Order to expel barbarians (foreigners), Neale responded in strong terms, equating the move with a declaration of war. He issued an ultimatum to the Japanese government that was on the brink of war with foreign powers.

answer: Edward St. John Neale exercised great caution in his response to the Japanese authorities, earning the furious opprobrium of the Western community in Yokohama. Despite this, he was vindicated by the British Government, was promoted to the rank of Major, and was appointed CB, for his coolness. After a heated dispute between the Daimyo Sakai-Hida-no-Kami and the British Legation over the death of Charles Lennox Richardson, who was murdered by a band of drunken Satsuma samurai, the Emperor of Japan issued the Order to expel barbarians. Neale issued an ultimatum to the Japanese government and when it was not met, began negotiations for reparations for the Namamugi incident. He also took part in negotiations over the reparations following the Namamugi incident on July 2, 1863. A few days later, on July 2, 1863, Neale led the negotiations for the reparations despite the failure of Satsuma to apologize and pay compensation. In what was called the Bombardment of Kagoshima in the August of the same year, Neale participated on board the flagship, Euralyus.

James Vardy of Leicester City celebrates the team's Premier League win with his children.
 Laurence Griffiths/Getty Images
Sportswear giant Puma — the official kit supplier of shock Premier League winners Leicester City — is tripling its shirt production for the team after this season's line sold out, according to Bloomberg.

Puma made 25,000 shirts for the 2015/16 season, but they have been sold out "for months."

A spokesperson for Puma didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.

Anticipating continued high demand from a wave of new fans, it intends to make 90,000 shirts for the next season.

Leicester City's website recently unveiled the new kit designs, set to debut next season.

Bloomberg added that Puma had no bonus contract with Leicester because when their agreement was signed four years ago nobody expected the team to win the Premiership.

Manchester United currently has the biggest kit agreement in the Premiership — a 10-year deal with Adidas reportedly worth £750 million ($1.1 billion).

Another Premier League team, Chelsea, recently agreed to end its Adidas kit deal six years early. It was supposed to last until 2023, but will instead finish after next season.

Puma is struggling to value Leicester following its 5000/1 Premier League win, Bloomberg added, particularly with the new global audience it will enjoy in the next Champions League. It cites sports analyst Repucon, which estimates Leicester's TV viewership has risen 23% in the UK and 70% in the US.

>Everything is silent but the wind. An empty bus stop is across the street. The faded green metal of the shelter is rusted, and the glass has long since been graffitied. Trash is overflowing a nearby wastebin. A young man, thinly built sporting a tattered leather jacket, red beanie, and jeans comes into view. He is smoking a cigarette.

>Cut to close up view on his grey eyes - you see them flick upwards, you can see he is vigilant and aware of his surroundings at all times. He blinks.

>The sun is bright overhead. He solemnly approaches the bench and stands in the shade, leaning with his back against the shelter. Hands in his pockets, he glances left.

>A lone stranger is staggering down the sidewalk across the street. His movements suggest psychosis. Jagged hand movements and reactions to imaginary surroundings, he is clearly under the influence of reality altering chemicals.

>A bird chips in a nearby tree. the branch sways in the breeze.

>Cut back to main character, light smoke curls around his face as he exhales. his eyes are trailing the stranger, face completely blank. He blinks.

>The bus driver is clearly frustrated. His face is screwed up in brewing emotion. Eyes watery, face red and bushy eyebrows angrily clenched down. In the back of a bus a baby is crying, cell phones are going off, noise is building up. One of the passengers is becoming aggressive and is about to cause a commotion with another. The driver is glancing in his mirror.

>The staggering stranger, is reacting violently to nothing. His movements are erratic. He steps into the street. There is froth at his mouth, eyes dilated. Incapable of forming words, he moans and blurts incoherently.

>The main character glances right.

>A young adult female is driving her car. She is listening to loud pop music, her hair is in her face as she dances in her seat. She glances down at her radio console, which has a glare coming off it from the sun's reflection.

>Close up of her gas gauge, it is rising. She is still looking at her radio, changing the channel. Her elbow bumps her coffee and it spills. She gasps and makes a desperate attempt at saving her drink.

>Cut to main character. He glances left. The bus is approaching. He starts to finish his cigarette.

>The bus driver yells at the passenger. Threatening to kick him off the bus at the next stop. The passenger raises his voice. The baby is wailing.

>The young woman reaches for the cup, hot liquid pouring all over the interior of her car. She is looking down at the mess. Her music is is still blaring loud.

>The raving madman is seen for a fraction of a second in her windshield. The music volume, combined with her speedy distracted driving, she hits him hard.

>The bird takes flight.

>From main character's point of view, time is in slow motion. The stranger impacts the car and his limbs splay out at an inhuman angle. His flesh ricochets off the metal car. This bag of fleeting mortality lands in the path of the bus. About 6 feet in front of and to the left of the main character. His face is a bloody mess and the left leg is shattered in many places. A bloody pool forming around his mangled body.

>The bus driver has his head turned. Attention towards the back of his bus. He hits the brakes a little harder than he usually would to spite the standing passenger that was making his day shit and yells at him to get off the bus.

>As stranger gurgles blood in the road, the bus drives over his head. Brains splatter on the driver's side wheel. The bus barely feels a bump as it rolls to a stop. The door to the bus opens and a man storms off in the same direction the bus was heading without looking back.

>Main character takes one last puff of his cigarette, flicks it then steps onto the bus.

>Cut to black.

title: flicks his cigarette, and steps into the bus.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize the primary source of tension in the story.

answer: The primary source of tension in the story is the risky situation created by the mentally unstable man in the street and the reckless driver who doesn't notice him in time. The main character watches this incident, knowing the outcome will not be good.

answer: A man, looking in a mess of distress, wanders into a traffic center. The story branches out to include the palette of characters who will come to be affected by his presence. The main character is a man who witnesses the panorama in its entirety, as the man in question is hit by a vehicle, and this impact has a sort of domino effect on other drivers, including a bus driver. Everyone plays a role in the scene-even a wailing baby.

answer: The primary source of tension in the story is the confrontation between a mentally unstable stranger and a speeding car, who together cause the death of the man. The tension lies in the main character's witnessing of the event that unfolds and his reaction.

answer: The tension, specifically within the first two scenes, surrounds the presence of an imagined threat. The main character is constantly alert and vigilant when he realizes that a nearby person that is possibly threatening him. Distracting factors have a big role in whether or not the main character is calm or alert. These distractions start happening consistently near the end of the story, and this tension escalates into a do or die situation. This seems to be the direction of the ending, which could be that the man will be shot due to the chaotic situation they've all been immersed into.

refinement: The narrator watches a man staggering down the sidewalk, and notices that the drivers of a bus and a car are both distracted. The man wanders into the road and is killed.

answer: The primary source of tension in the story are all the near-miss moments before the accident. The young man notices the psychotic stranger who's about to set off and he makes sure he's on the bench in the shade, while casing out the red-haired woman and keeping track of the bus. There's more activity going on that should have caught the attention of the main character, like the driver eyeing the passenger about to start a commotion. It's also clear that tension mounts when the man appearing in the all the people's peripheries blur their vision and seem to be attracting their attention, or affect the behavior in some way.
