Getting worried about Hickey's History of Rock in 500 Songs. Four hours to talk about Gram Parsons and the Byrds' break-up seems excessive. I didn't hear anything in the four episodes to convince me that Parsons (or Chris Hillman, or Gene Parsons) was that influential. Maybe it was a roundabout way to talk about Emmylou Harris for a bit?
hey people! it looks like i'll be going to Madison next week, and am wondering if y'all could recommend a place (places) to eat at? perhaps an Indian or Thai (or Indonesian if you have one)? Or i guess anyplace, that is particularly good? thanx!
A British judge has thrown out DJT's lawsuit over the Steele Dossier ruling that TFG must pay the legal costs of the trial - $383,000 because Steele's company did not publish the dossier.
Meanwhile, back home in NYC, Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan ruled that Trump must pay the $83.3 million judgment to Jeanie Carroll by Monday, or post a bond or assets as collateral against the judgment while appealing a jury’s verdict in January that as president he defamed her after she accused him in 2019 of rape.
Also, according to NY AG Latisha James, the $454 million now owed to the state for fraudulent business activity goes up $87,500 every day that cash, bond, or titles to clean property are not submitted.
If Biden wins, apparatchiks who believe the same things that Gadfly believes will use all powers of the government, from the IRS to the FBI to the NSA to the courts to ruin political opponents. He might even be one of them.
I thought that Sen. Katie Britt’s Republican rebuttal was an interesting speech. I saw some comments afterward about the strong emotional undercurrent to her delivery, with one person comparing it to those pleading SPCA ads and another person wondering if she had even been screen tested and adding that it will probably be SNL’s cold open this week. But then I thought about it a while and realized that those men and I were not the target audience for the speech. With which persuadable group is Trump the weakest? Soccer moms, the suburban women who were tired of Trump’s boorishness and drama, and hoped that voting for Biden would bring a return to normalcy. That was not what they got, of course, and Sen. Britt’s kitchen table speech allowed her to speak to them woman to woman, mom to mom, about the troubles that Biden’s policies have inflicted on our nation. I think with that group, it may have been an effective speech, and that she could be an effective surrogate for Trump in talking to women’s groups.
Here's a take on Trump v Anderson I've encountered: states have authority to enforce 14th Amendment Section 3 disqualification of candidates for federal office because the 10th Amendment already gives them jurisdiction over other qualifications for federal office such as the age requirement and the citizenship requirement. Thoughts?
I guess that unless there is some Trump outrage of the day the commentariat has nothing to say.
It rained all day here yesterday. It was miserable. I had lunch with an old friend. A die hard socialist. Neither he or his wife, a lifelong Marxist, are going to vote for Biden. If they're that disillusioned I can imagine that there are other left leaning voters that are going to vote Republican.
Who here has thier concealed carry permit? Is it worth the effort?

OK. I won't make fun of Ol' Joe for having to get shot up to make it through the 9pm EST SOTU.
I usually head to bed at 8pm CST. Trying to stay up to watch the shit show
I'm conceding the early bedtime. That's it though. Fuck him on all the rest.
Biden's entrance looks like a farewell celebration.

Katie Britt has the va va voom. Would eat the fruit in her kitchen.
President Biden spent much of his speech denouncing rulings of the US Supreme Court.
Lincoln Riley.
Whoever that is...

gadfly LOVES lawfare....unless it happens to his beloved Progressives.
If Biden wins, apparatchiks who believe the same things that Gadfly believes will use all powers of the government, from the IRS to the FBI to the NSA to the courts to ruin political opponents. He might even be one of them.
Biden finally addressing the infrastructure problem. Agrees to spend millions ... in Gaza.
