Hey, take a look at how great you are!  We only have 10 counties left and we are only 9 donors away from having 100 donors.  That’s something grand.  Glen says to tell you that he’s starting to put his clothes back on for the dance.

Enjoy your weekend!

Okay, so Jim Jordan is still running for Speaker of the House despite outcries from members of the Ohio State Wrestling team.

Jordan was formerly the chairman of the conservative Freedom Caucus. In his letter, he advocated for the repeal of Obamacare, welfare reform, and increased border security. Jordan was formerly an assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State University, where allegations of sexual abuse by a team doctor have come to light. Several former OSU athletes said Jordan knew about the abuse and did nothing.

Hummmm ….

Do they not remember the very conservative Dennis Hastert who was hand-picked by Tom DeLay to become speaker of the house?  He was also a wrestling coach.

Ya know, it seems to me that Republicans have enough sex scandals right now.  I cannot image why they are rallying around more.

So, and I know this will come as a surprise, Trump has decided the best way to counter his own damn voice on a recording is to call Michael Cohen a weakling and a traitor.  Yep, that old name calling defense.

Wait, wait.  He’s Trump’s lawyer. Trump picked him. That alone makes Cohen one of “the best people.”

In other news, Slate wrote that Trump’s ratings are “in the toilet.”

Okay, so here’s my question?  What metaphor do we have to come up with next week when he does something even worse?  Maybe like … if a toilet had a personal toilet of its own, that’s where Trump’s popularity would be?

I’m voting for “a snake’s belly in a wagon rut.”

Disgraced and Scandalized Texas Congressman Blake Farenthold is on the loose, Honey.

I’m not saying that I will post pictures of him every day on here until we meet our goal for Ballot By Mail Applications, but I am saying that if begging doesn’t work, I am not above threatening.

Check out our friends at Twitter:

Farenthold, I want my $84,000 back, dammit.

Thanks to TaTa for the heads up.

8:30 pm Texas Time — CNN is breaking and NBC confirms that Cohen is willing to tell Mueller that Trump knew about the meeting with the Russians at Trump Tower prior to the meeting.  It appear that Cohen was told about the meeting by Trump, Jr.

My theory is that the leaks are coming from Trump’s lawyers who are releasing it to try to control it.

By the way, there’s a meeting of the National Security Council about election interference tomorrow at the White House. Trump is slated to lead the meeting.

More to come ….

Hey have a little lookie right here at the Wall Street Journal!

Allen Weisselberg, the CEO of Trump’s company who was mentioned in the Trump/Cohen recorded phone call, has gotten a subpoena to testify before the federal grand jury.

Of note:

This is gonna be fun, y’all.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
