Random thoughts Friday, Volume XVIII

  • I can’t remember the last time a White House official had to say, “What the president actually meant to say was.…”  But I know it was during the last administration.
  • When the Trump political pyramid scam falls–and all pyramid scams eventually collapse–the one Republican who will be in position to take over is Liz Cheney.  She’s playing the long game.  (What?  You think she’s acting in the best interest of the country?  C’mon… she’s a Cheney.)
  • I completely concur with President Biden’s statement that we need a strong two-party system for our government to work.  There needs to be one caveat:  both of those parties must work in the best interests of not just their voters, but also the Constitution.  Right now, the GOP is operating only in the interest of keeping power, not for the good of the country.

  • “Trigger Happy TV” is one of the best, mindless, silly television shows ever.  
  • Mitch McConnell saying “100% of his focus” is on stopping the Biden Administration demonstrates how Republicans have never had any interest in governing.  All they want is to have everyone comply with their dictates.  
  • Listened to Preet Bharara’s podcast “Stay Tuned.”  Learned that one of the prosecutors in the Derek Chauvin trial, Jerry Blackwell, had never participated in a criminal trial before Chauvin case.  He’s a civil lawyer.  That was the first criminal case he ever participated in.  
  • The Matt Gaetz child trafficking case has fallen off the radar.  That’s not a good sign… for Gaetz.  It means federal investigators are operating as they should:  without an eye on politics.
  • Saying you shouldn’t care if your neighbor got a coronavirus vaccine because you’re healthy is like saying you shouldn’t care if the driver in oncoming traffic is drunk because you’re sober.  
  • Statistically, Mother’s Day is traditionally the day with the lowest crime rate in the United States, which begs the question:  just how many crimes do mothers commit?
  • The fact that there hasn’t been a large exodus of professional journalists from Fox News simply for airing scores of Tucker Carlson’s deadly lies on the coronavirus vaccines proves that there are no professional journalists at Fox News.
  • Favorite childhood cereals:  Lucky Charms, Count Chocula and Sugar Smacks.  And yes, they are SUGAR Smacks; screw this “Honey Smacks” rebranding.  Special recognition for Rice Krispies repurposing themselves into Rice Krispies Treats.  
  • Bill Barr needs to be brought in to a Congressional hearing and put under oath to explain his earlier testimony on Russian election interference and the Mueller report.  My guess:  he will take The Fifth.
  • Stay safe, everyone.  Don’t get hit by any 10-ton Chinese rockets falling from the sky.  And get vaccinated.
