Our long time friend Deb T is in the hospital with the flu. She’s sick enough to be in the hospital but well enough to play on the internet machine.
First she wanted me to see this:
That just makes me proud to be a Democrat. Democrats have some room for improvement in the gender department but poor Republicans have a long road to go with a short time to get there.
And, next, it turns out that the “young intern” who participated in the Jim Acosta event ain’t so young nor is she an intern.
I mean, if you can’t trust the Trump White House, who can you trust?
And last but holy crap certainly not least is Don Blankenship, the CEO of Massey Coal Company who killed 29 miners by blatantly violating the Mine Safety Act. He spent a year in prison and was fined $250,000. After that, he decided he was just perfect for politics and ran for Senate from West Virginia. He lost.
Burger, who was finally caught in sent to prison at 89 years old, was killed by another mobster within days of arriving. Yeah, gotta be a deep state thing.
Okay, so everybody is in the tea reading business today, so I’ll jump in.
Face it, Trump’s behavior has been particularly weird. No show at Veterans Day events? He loves that stuff because he thinks they’ll give him a surprise parade.
Then a friend of a friend (Bruce Lindner) laid this out beautifully.
• Fox News’ Twitter feed is usually very prolific. They tend to tweet maybe 20-25 tweets per day. Until last Thursday. Not a single tweet in 5 days from Mr. Murdoch’s evil empire.
.
• The same with Wikileaks. No tweets in 5 days.
.
• Matt Drudge, Republican gossipmonger extraordinaire, has scrubbed his entire Twitter page. It’s a blank canvas this morning… as blank as Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ dance card.
.
• Jerome Corsi, co-architect of the Swift Boat Vets for “Truth,” and chief birther during the early Obama years, announced yesterday that he expects Robert Mueller to indict him. His BFF and fellow nutcase, Roger Stone, has gone unusually silent.
.
• Michael Cohen, Trump’s one-time “fixer” lawyer, took the train into Washington yesterday accompanied by his lawyer. They went directly to the Special Counsel’s Office, where one assumes, they weren’t there to discuss sports and the weather.
A year ago, a lawsuit against Woodfill’s law partner, former state representative and raging anti-gay crusader Paul Pressler, was dismissed. It involved child molestation.
Folks in the know are guessing this is some sort of stealing money deal. Woodfill is a giant supporter of Ted Cruz.
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.
