Texas Senator John Cornyn wants you to forget that Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s life began before 2008.

This is just seeping Trumpism and Republican denial of reality.

Democrats are demanding to see the records of Kavanaugh’s entire tenure in the Bush White House. Republicans don’t want you to see it.  However …

Based on the standard set during the confirmation process for Justice Elena Kagan, who served in the White House Counsel’s Office under President Bill Clinton, McGahn told senators that Kavanaugh’s documents from his time in the counsel’s office would, too, be relevant, according to the official.

As they say, what’s good for the Kegan is good for Kavanaugh.

Now, I’m not saying there was any hanky-panky that happened under the expert guidance of President Bush, but …. oh wait, that is exactly what I’m saying.

What manner of shenanigans did Kavanaugh do while serving under Bush? And, why does John Cornyn want to cover it up?  Cornyn wants us to forget it ever happened.

Look, I wasn’t born yesterday. However, it appears that Kavanaugh was.

Thanks to all for the heads up.

Okay, it’s that time again.

Toni Wallace

I need you to give me some money to help elderly Democrats in Texas vote by mail.  I need you to adopt a orphan county so Beto can beat Ted Cruz and Mike Collier can beat Dan Patrick. And so a gorgeous and brilliant young woman named Toni Wallace can become the first African American judge elected in Fort Bend County since reconstruction.

Please.  Pretty please.

Well crap, it finally, oh dear Lord finally, appears that the Republican congress has found the wherewithal to talk.

It’s over the $12 billion farm bail out.

Oh, they are throwing themselves an adorable little fit.  Listen too some of this:

“This is becoming more and more like a Soviet type of economy here: Commissars deciding who’s going to be granted waivers, commissars in the administration figuring out how they’re going to sprinkle around benefits,” said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.). “I’m very exasperated. This is serious.”

“Taxpayers are going to be asked to initial checks to farmers in lieu of having a trade policy that actually opens and expands more markets. There isn’t anything about this that anybody should like,” said Sen. John Thune of South Dakota, the No. 3 GOP leader.

Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) said Trump is giving farmers “golden crutches,” while Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) said “this bailout compounds bad policy with more bad policy.” Toomey and GOP Sens. Jeff Flake of Arizona and Bob Corker of Tennessee said their legislation to tie the president’s hands on tariffs should pick up new steam now that the Trump administration is distorting the market.

Now cut this out and hang this on your refrigerator because come pickin’ time, every one of these guys will support the bailout because it’s an enormous gift to farmers right before the mid term elections.

Big hat, no cattle.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

I have a question, if the Republican Administration can cut entire sections of a press conference out of the public record, can we cut that same Republican Administration out of the history books?

Asking for a country.

The damn attorney general of the United damn States of America was giving a speech this morning to a hoard of white trust fund high school students at the Turning Point USA’s High School Leadership Summit.

Fortunately the students didn’t wear the white golf shirt and carry tiki torches.  At least that I am aware of, but they probably have those things in their closet just in case.

Here’s what happened:

Then chants of “Lock her up” broke out.

“Lock her up,” Sessions said, chuckling at the brief interruption from the audience as the chant then grew louder.

First off, this is Jeff Sessions.  He was not chuckling. He was giggling.

He’s the attorney general of the United States of America.  What the hell is wrong with him?

The very best people, my sweet patootie!

Some of you guys expressed interest in attending the Alex Jones hearing in Austin.  Mr. Jones is contending that he has a First Amendment right to put people’s lives in danger.

Little Bubba put out the following press release:

I am writing with a news tip on an event you may be interested in covering. I am the attorney for a group of Sandy Hook parents who have sued Austin resident Alex Jones and his company InfoWars for defamation in Travis County, Texas. On August 1^st, the court will hold its first hearing in the case.

The lawsuit alleges that Mr. Jones repeatedly claimed the Sandy Hook shooting was fake and that the parents were actors. The case has just begun, and Mr. Jones has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, citing his First Amendment rights. In the hearing, the judge will hear arguments on whether the case should proceed.

On the following day, August 2^nd, the court will hold a hearing on a similar motion to dismiss filed by Mr. Jones in another defamation lawsuit brought my law firm, in which an innocent young man in Massachusetts was falsely identified by InfoWars as the gunman who killed 17 people at Parkland High School in Florida.

The hearings will be held at the Travis County Courthouse, 1000 Guadalupe Street, Austin, Texas 78701. The specific courtroom will be shown on the information screens in the lobby shortly before the hearing. The hearing is open to public, but be aware that video recording requires prior notice to the court.
