- Yes, Fani Willis had a relationship with a member of her team. Okay. So how does that negate anything put forth in the indictment against Trump and the other co-conspirators? Oh, right: it doesn’t.
- This round of Donald Trump lawyer interviews will put Orly Taitz and Carl Lazlo at the defense team.
- No way in hell Nikki Haley should concede at any point prior to the convention. Make Donald spend money to beat back her campaign purely out of anger and spite. Haley staying in the race enrages Trump, which can only lead to good things.
- I have a great deal of enthusiasm for scientific advancements through groundbreaking experimentation, particularly within the medical field, but if that step for science means chips manufactured by Elon Musk get implanted in people’s brains, I get worried. The man is a supervillain in the making and yes, I think he would fuck with people just because he could.
- If you’re listening to Phil Collins’ “In the Air Tonight,” you’re either going to an ‘80s party or you’re planning on killing someone.
- Hey, Taylor Swift conspiracy addicts: The Powers That Be could have assured the audience for the Super Bowl just by debuting new commercials featuring the singer or having her perform at halftime. Stop turning a horse into a zebra. You sound more foolish-er.
- Biden’s response against Iranian-backed groups–hammering dozens of targets–sent the signal to Iran that (1) we know where you are and (2) we were measured this time, Tehran, but if you don’t control your proxies, we know where you are.
- I’m not shocked The Messenger collapsed, but I was taken aback by how quickly it disintegrated. I guess paying for biased polls isn’t good for business.
- I was shocked, on the other hand, by the January jobs report. It was far more than I expected. Lost in the report: upward revisions of the previous two months totaling an additional 126,000 jobs–closer to what the original forecasts for the January jobs report predicted, not the 353,000 where it came in. And don’t overlook the 4.5% year-over-year wage increase.
- MAGAts if the Chiefs win: “Well, of course! We told you!” … if the 49ers win: “Well, of course! It would’ve looked too planned if Taylor’s team won!” Amazing how fixated they are on a league they’ve supposedly boycotted since 2016.
- Crossword puzzles cannot be done in black ink. Pencil is fine if you need, but colored ink must be used on a print puzzle, not black. And no, you don’t get the same satisfaction with an online crossword.
- Alina Habba’s law career was nothing; she was barely above those who advertise at 3 a.m. She has new life as a Trump expert, which requires no demonstrated knowledge, education or experience. Within two weeks, she’ll be on TeeVee telling us why polling is wrong because voters in Super Tuesday states really hate Bidenomics.
- Take a moment and be thankful Bill Clinton was in charge during the preparation of Y2K bug fix, not Shrub or the nectarine narcissist. We’d have been launched to the age before air travel had they been in charge.
- Many times when I’m folding the clothes from the dryer I find myself humming a Don Henley song.
- Happy Black History Month! Do something more than watch Glory: go to a local African American heritage museum. Support a local Black restauranteur. Find an independent bookshop featuring Black authors. And if you don’t have those available in your area, commit yourself to finally reading that biography of Harriett Tubman or the history of the Tuskegee experiments. Take a little-known moment of Black history to encourage people ignorant of it to learn about it, like Republicans.
- Remember the good ol’ days, when Donald Trump used to promise to pay everyone else’s legal bills at his rallies?
- Spend the time to chop the garlic. Yes, you could use the stuff in the jar, but there’s something satisfying about smashing and chopping garlic. The bottled stuff is fine–I have one in my fridge for when I’m lazy–but it lacks the fresh flavor. Chopped fresh garlic is therapeutic to prep and delicious in meals.
