Y’all don’t bother me right now. I am very busy dancing on the table tossing glitter around and blasting Honky Tonk Woman (my holy song) on every speaker in the house.
It’s a federal felony.
There will be a pardon. I assure you of that. But, first we dance.
UPDATED
I went ahead and broke open a bottle of wine. It’s only 10:00 am Texas time but ya gotta celebrate when ya gotta celebrate.
Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
I just opened a magnum of Schadenfreude and would be glad to share on this joyous occasion.
1Bannon and also A federal judge DISMISSES President Trump’s second attempt to block Manhattan DA Vance’s probe and UPHOLDS the prosecutor’s subpoena.

That made my morning! Plus, a judge threw out the Orange Moron’s suit to keep his taxes from the NY DA! Bring it on!
3Can there be a pardon before a conviction?
4The actual complaint…

Y’all have very strong stomachs! First two things that came to my mind: hope the team that cuffed him were wearing full HAZMAT gear, and sincere pity for any and all having to share a cell with Bannon.
But yes, let’s dance and hopefully to the tune of a little birdie named Steve singing to the SDNY for ‘special favors.’
Any songwriters among the creative folks at the WMDBS? Speaking of happier notes and times, both First Lady and President Obama spoke for 19 minutes. Was that a coincidence, or one of Joe’s inside jokes like betting them they could not “say it all” under twenty minutes Thing is a campaign song is needed. A song for the future that unites us, ignites us, and keeps us focused on the work ahead. If you will, a positive protest song. But be fair – the title should be 19 minutes.
6Like Christmas in August: Bannon then Trump’s tax returns and then a final convention night tonight. Let’s go!!
7One of the commenters on WAPO theorized that trump released the DoJ hounds on Bannon, because Bannon has spoken ill of trump.
8It’s rare for me to start drinking at 9:30am, but that bottle of el cheapo champagne from Sam’s is flowing free.
Gawd how I would have loved to have been the officer to handcuff Bannon and move him to the open rear door of a marked police car. As I may have said once or twice back in the day, “Dude, you may be the rap, but you won’t beat the ride.”
9break out the 2 buck chuck…
10Almost lunchtime in Florida JJ.
That means edibles are ok.
No need to wait.
11@frank #10: Around here, 2 buck chuck is up to 3 bucks. This occasion deserves better, though. Whatever ya got, drink up!
12Holy crap! I just looked up Timothy Shea because I thought his name sounded familiar. Wiki says he has been the acting administrator for the DEA since May, 2020. Could this be the same guy? Probably not…
13It is indeed a joyful day! As the venerable Andrew Weismann said, “ Note two things about the Bannon indictment. 1. it explains why Trump-Barr removed US Attorney Berman so precipitously. 2. SDNY made case not with FBI, but Postal Inspectors and internal SDNY agents. Open question: did SDNY seek approval for charges from Barr (wd not need to)?”
14One more thing, Bannon, indicted today on charges of defrauding donors, chaired the advisory board of We Build the Wall other board members include:
Erik Prince
Kris Kobach
Curt Schilling
Tom Tancredo
Sheriff David Clarke
May the “joy” Continue to flow down hill!
15Also glad to finally see Brian Kolfage busted.
He’s been doing scams for years and, when he founded We Build the Wall, thought he finally hit pay dirt.
16I will toast you all with my morning coffee.
17It may well be that this trial will not occur until after Trump is out of the WH. That means no Trumpian pardon. These slugs are headed for the hoosegow big time! Including the would be pardoner! I love that judge who ruled the taxes have to be divulged!
18Speaking of toast…
“President Trump has not been involved with Steve Bannon since the campaign and the early part of the Administration, and he does not know the people involved with this project.
I wouldn’t count on that pardon.
19If Trump wants us to believe mail-in voting is rife with fraud, he needs to add – – only if you vote for Trump on your ballot, then you can you be sure there’s going to be fraud.
I don’t believe even Nixon self-destructed in such a blaze of inglorious doom.
20Striped pajamas will be a fashion upgrade for Bannon.
21I need a score card.
I tuned into the news as they were reporting the story this afternoon. And I coulda sworn the announcer said “Barr.”
After I picked my teeth up off the floor, I paid closer attention and, no, it was “Bannon” after all.
Maybe it wasn’t so much needing a checklist as it was wishful thinking. After all, Bannon is a has-been but Barr is still very busy dismantling our democracy.
