I wish the young man a speedy and full recovery, as well as patience and strength to help his friends and family through this.

I just finished Black Earth Rising. An excellent combination of history, international law and mystery all tied into one package. Centers around Rwanda and the aftermath of the Tutsi genocide, not just immediately, but like decades later. John Goodman gives a good performance as the lead actor.

Wouldn't he be more of a liability than an asset?
As far as the Alamo v Wall thing, I think, Taj Nowall is pretty apropos for this situation.

Yeah you old lying senile bastard, wait until people miss 2 or 3 house payments in a row, then we'll see how much their bank or landlord will bend over and "work along".
Work along, what the fuck does that even mean. BITCH BETTER HAVE MY MONEY!
I am waiting for the stories to come in about trump tenants needing help and not getting it.

The staff could never find a home for Drew Kelson. He made some plays including the game-sealer against the buckeyes. at night. in the shoe. Zwick got fucking mangled on this play
Today, that would be a targeting call. Or at least looked at.
I am not sure if wasted means they were played out of position, underutilized, or for some reason the coaches and staff couldn't help the young man get his head on straight.
If the latter counts, then Ramonce Taylor needs consideration as well. That guy was electrifying.

What I think may happen first is Pelosi negotiating with republican senators on turning on trump before any impeachment starts. She could say "it's evident now there's a mountain of evidence coming in the Mueller report and the worst hasn't even become public yet. It's in your best interest to cut your losses now before it becomes an even bigger shit storm for you and for me to get that process started here are my demands".
Use her power to initiate impeachment as political leverage. It's not what would be best for the country but none of these shit fuck politicians care about that. It's only about getting reelected and gaining power to them
I think there are more than a handful of R senators complicit in all the Russia dealings. Money, election tampering, whatever, but they are tied to it.
They know the only hope for survival is for Trump to take the fall for it all. But Trump has all the goods on them, so if he goes down, they know they will as well.
I firmly believe Mueller has a lot of evidence on these clowns, enough to take them down too.
Getting rid of Trump only doesn't cure the problem. Even throwing him in jail won't do it.
A lot of senators have a feeling this is coming, that is why we had so many not seek re-election.
Mueller is investigating Russian involvement in the US political system, the poster boy is dotard, but there are others, and they are all going to fingered.
I really think his goal is to clear our government of all those who have compromised our country and its standards with regards to allowing Russian interference in return for favors from the Russians or others who work along the same shady lines, like Cambridge Analytica.
These people don't need to be allowed to slink away with no consequences. That only will encourage others to fill in their places. They need to be disgraced as Americans and pay for their mistakes, as do any who enabled them.

Yeah. That was a great series. Opened the door for a new genre of race related shows. Sanford was a classic, Good Times was it's antithesis. Something for everyone.
I got to remembering shows in this vein and thought of Chico and the Man. Completely had slipped my mind about Prinze killing himself, that's a sad Wiki to read, covering about how they had to continue the show and deal with his loss.

I am sorry, but why the fuck would anyone care what the russians think of the shelf life of our Supreme Court Justices?

Sex Education is pretty solid. It's got a little more depth than what I was expecting. Gillian Anderson does a good job.

This is one of those theories I want to believe but the realism in me says nothing comes of this. These guys aren’t idiots like Trump, they cover their ass.
We all know they’re up to their eyeballs in corrupt money but the problem is it’s not a crime they are liable for. They made it this way by design.
Agree, but maybe through all this their manipulations of the law, just like gerrymandering will be exposed and they will be held accountable for it. They might never serve time, but they could be ousted from office in real cleaning of the swamp that will include some serious campaign and election reform, as well as term limits. I honestly think Mueller has enough on them to expose some of this charlatanism. And hopefully everyone will be pissed enough to run them out of office too. Though, according to my own hypothesis, they won't be.

And they are multiplying. Ever notice how stupid people tend to be the ones having more kids?
Republicans are going nowhere. This crop may be done soon but there will be another crop after them and the R base will be happy to tell us how this new young group are trustworthy loyal Americans now that they’ve trained the swamp.
The key is education. Educate those new kids, give them a different, honest perspective against what they hear at home. This is why we no longer teach civics or government in HS anymore. This is why the GOP is trying to cripple public schools in favor of private (usually faith based) schools. It is not that these kids are stupid, they are just uneducated, and usually brainwashed, because their parents are from the same system.

Said it before: the biggest wild card is Congressional GOP leadership getting indicted and/or a RICO charges for money laundering rubles getting unsealed against the RNC. Did anyone forget about the Feds raiding Strategic Research Group in Maryland back in that pivotal Spring of ‘17? That raid was about organizational crime, not individual.
Anyone think Mitch McConnell getting perp walked won’t change the Senate tune ? It sounds unimaginable, but Trump isn’t alone in this. I’m convinced the conduct of GOP leadership is driven by fear of their complicit corruption being exposed more than fear of Dotard’s loyal base of suckers.
Expose that and it’s over.
This. I think McConnell, Graham, Cruz and others are mired in illegal campaign contributions and violations (Cambridge Analytic) and know there is a good chance they will be exposed. Their only chance is to hide behind the Trump scandal and hope that they can cut a side deal. The longer this can be drug out, the more exhausted people are going to be with it. They just want it over.
This whole thing is like a big bonfire, and Trump and his family/admin are tied to the center stake. The guilty GOP leadership are the rats hidden in the firewood. They are letting Mueller and team heap and heap more wood onto the pile. Then when the thing is lit, they hope to scurry out while no one is looking, and if a few people do notice, they will ignore them/let them go in order to concentrate on the main event, dotard and his admin. Maybe they are also hoping somehow the base will rescue the whole thing and form a circle around the pyre to prevent anyone from lighting it.
Fitting analogy for dotard's WITCH HUNT!

If Trump has nothing to worry about, why is he scared shitless?
He's not scared, he is angrily fighting to defend his honor and his country from the libs, deep state and fake news.
Oh wait, that is how Born to Run's brother (and my own) is ignoring the obvious.

I sure do dig those fucking recliners tho!
I know I am odd man out, but I don't care for the recliners. Maybe its just the ones at the theaters I use the most, but they aren't as comfortable as the seats they had before. It's a bit like changing a bucket seat for a bench seat to me. I'd rather sit upright than recline in the theater. Weird because i can watch TV all day in my recliner at home. Guess it's mainly how they recline that bugs me, where the support is.

Trump will never be held accountable. Unless “not being re-elected” is accountability to you. It isn’t to me. And even that is far from a certainty.
What Hugo says below is pretty much what i was thinking.
1 hour ago, Hugo Stiglitz said:There are things worse than prison for Trump. His worst fear is public humiliation and being exposed as a complete fraud.
That’s why he won’t release his tax returns and why he was furious when Obama humiliated him at the corespondents dinner.
It’s also why he demands loyalty. As long as he has powerful subordinates loyal to him, his worst nightmare of being reduced to the insignificance of your average criminal will never be realized.
The only powerful subordinates he has are powerful because of his position as POTUS right? Without that, and with exposure, seems a lot of those hangers on will keep a distance.
22 minutes ago, retread said:He started off as a reluctant president with the mind of a 10 year old. He may have other mental deficits associated with getting old. Plus he's a narcissist/psychopath. How do you explain any of his actions? It's a presidency run by Cheeto's amygdala.
He has come close to crossing a serious line before when he almost fired Mueller (McGahn talked him out of it). If he declares a natl emergency, to me it signals that he has chosen a much more dangerous course. Up to now, his presidency has been about killing time or running the clock out on Mueller. Now he's going on the offensive.
All he ever wanted was attention. He didn't want the office, but he the Russians saw a great tool in him to cause a lot of strife in our country. They would have continued to use him outside the office, but inside worked out better. They don't give a shit if he comes across to us as crazy, as long as he keeps everything in a state of agitated flux, so no one realizes what's going on behind the scenes.
And in his mind, his base and his Russian handlers are the only ones he feels have his back, and he has been working towards more authoritarian governance from day one. Since the American people are too stupid to realize his supreme intelligence, then he just has to force things, like giving us cod liver oil. And the russians keep feeding his narcissism.
I just don't know how things will happen if he declares a national emergency? Will it put imminent domain in place instead of arbitration for property? Does it bring in the Corps of Engineers to start building the thing next month? Troops to the border? I hear a lot about the national emergency move, but like he always does, he says something then walks it back, depending on response.
60 Years Ago Today, The Music Died
in Daily Texan
Posted
I always loved to hear Cary Swinney talk about fellow Lubbockite musician, Holly. He had heard a lot of stories from other musicians that never make it into print. This is his tribute to BH. From his "Martha" album.
Seventh of September
A tribute
It's the seventh of September
a visionary time
And I have come back from the future
I've come to see what once was mine
It's a solitary journey
when you're a ghost of rock-n-roll
And though my own hometown now claims me
they will never have my soul
So they gather in West Texas
you know, the place I chose to leave
Where they've encased my black rimmed glasses
I just stare in disbelief
You see for years I was forgotten
but now I am their favorite son
And on my birthday in September
they take the money and they run - see them run
I hear crickets in the evenin'
I wipe the sweat off of my brow
In a garage on thirty-seventh
it's an illusion to me now,
Ain't it funny how things happen?
I mean once you're dead 'n gone
Seems now everybody knew me - and loved me
young and old now sing my songs
And Santiago smells the money
I should've seen that all along
Her new alliances with commerce - her lawsuits
my songs... my songs
I was once a young musician
a song writer, so they say
And though an aeroplane did take me
it seems I never fade away - not fade away
