From last I remembered, he was dating some figure skater or other. Last year, or two years ago, I remember seeing some woman in his box. The only thing is Kei's teeth (which he should follow Andy Murray's example and get fixed), otherwise, he'd be fine. Besides that, money tends to make people more attractive and with all his endorsements, Kei has plenty of that. Also, attractiveness is fairly subjective.

People know that Kei got married, right?

Okay, correction: according to what I am reading, the hack still involves more non-governmental than governmental agencies. So, there's that. What's still cause for concern is just how many of these non-governmental agencies could have links to government agencies and departments, in the form of contract work, like Solar Winds, etc. and could provide a virtual 'back-door' to certain agencies and departments within government. And Big Mouth in the White House has had absolutely nothing to say about any of this. Typical.

It is probably the most expansive hack of the government's data ever. At this rate, the hacking episodes in 2015 don't compare since it affected mostly private companies. I read about this a few days ago and even then the report warned that they had not even begun to scratch the surface, especially in terms of how much data could have been accessed.

Although I can definitely understand the wariness of fans of the show, having people who have a close connection to the show, is, at least, promising. If Dark Shadows can return with many iterations, so can AMC. Most importantly, I wonder if the soap blogs will keep an open mind, or will they preemptively savage the concept, like the last time? I guess I should have checked out the Primetime thread first, lol. Ouch!

After Buttigeig was chosen for Transportation Secretary, I knew Biden would go with Haaland. The argument that Haaland has never run a department of that size as a means of eliminating her for contention for Secretary of the Interior fades away with the appointment of Buttigeig. Biden truly is trying to demonstrate a willingness to incorporate the various constituencies and interests within the Democratic party, a delicate balance, for sure.

Sorry, I left out the crucial word "not" in my previous post. Alan suggested (or someone in the chat, I don't remember) that Fulton wouldn't be up for such an event.

This is a bit concerning but from all reports, the vaccine does not contain eggs, unlike previous vaccines for flu, etc. so hopefully there will be rare instances of this type of allergic reaction happening.

I would love it if Hastings, Prinz and Fulton could do a livestream via Zoom or Skype but Alan had previously intimated that Fulton might NOT be up to this, which also seems rather convenient for Alan since we know how averse he is toward any type of candor in which uncomfortable truths are told and anybody who has followed Fulton since the show's cancellation knows how deeply disrespected she felt during the final years of the show. I suspect that there would be some comparisons made between the show's early years and its final years and it might not be pretty, which Alan likely wants to avoid at all costs.

Did he actually read any of those intelligence reports? Does informal adviser Ivanka and low-level clearance Jared have access to meaningful intelligence? It is not just Trump and his spawn involved, in some cases, it is also family members, like some of his siblings, as well as a cousin. SDNY operates at a different level than the feds, who were/are toothless. If SDNY can put John "The Teflon Don" (a man Trump wishes he were), Bernie Madoff and El Chapo behind bars, they have the capacity to jail Trump. It is a question of to what degree that would be.

Thought that I had posted about this news item way back when, but I guess not. Needless to say, this man is vile beyond imagination.

Which is why I've been saying that NYC is coming for Trump. Although AG James' case is a civil, not criminal one, if she finds any evidence of criminal activity (of which there is a good chance), she can present that evidence to DA Vance, who is conducting a criminal investigation. Also, this is yet another reason that I roll my eyes at talk about him running in 2024. Aside from the obvious aspect that had he had any true intention of running in four years, he wouldn't be trying so hard to cling to the office now (he'd simply pull a Vlad, go away while installing someone to do his bidding, while trying to stage a comeback but all indications point to someone who is desperately trying to stave off debt ( remember that $450 million?) and more lawsuits and possible jail time.

I have been following her (Dr. Corbett) for several months on social media.

People can be so exasperating sometimes. Unless the child's health is dire (in which case, a carefully planned socially distanced "visit" to Santa would have to be arranged), there is no morally justifiable reason for parents and their children to gather in this way.

Colleen Zeno would make a good Margo Lynley, role that was originally played by Lauren Kozlow. If the show has any interest in reviving the character, which could help revamp the in Eric Forrester character by providing some interest.

Some of these EC voting scenes are quite touching to see.

Sandra Lindsay is the name of the nurse.

Honestly, I hope that neither has ever been on any of Biden's list for any position in a Biden administration, let alone a cabinet pick. I can see a faction of moderates trying to put in a word for Cuomo as an 'appeasement pick' of sorts, trying to claim that Cuomo would be a good 'sell' to Republicans, with most of the Democrats who would be opposed to Cuomo ensconced in the House, out of reach of a vote in the Senate. Joe's transition team has been pretty decent at vetting candidates, so I am going to take your word and chalk the Cuomo talk as a whisper campaign by his supporters.

Welp, Joe can scratch Cuomo off that short-list for AG, it would appear.

Just last year, I wondered whether Kumiko would make an appearance in the series sometime in the future.

Not to mention, at least three civil suits in progress, possibly more. The criminal case because it carries the possibility of jail time, obviously gets more media attention.

Funny enough, I am not surprised. If you look back, almost a decade ago at the Tea Party and their mouthpieces, on CNBC, etc. railing in front of the TV cameras from the trading floor of the NYSE, and how they conducted themselves throughout the Obama administration's years, you would likely have seen this coming. Trump has accelerated what was already in action. Hopefully, what many of us have been predicting will happen will also come to pass- the split and unraveling of the GOP, perhaps into obsolescence.

A harbinger of things to come for a private citizen Trump? A reminder that his "pardon power" is useless for anything except federal cases, which this is not.
