Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 Remember when, last year, it seemed as if every Friday was punctuated by some revelation about a scandal or indictment? It seems as if we may be back to those days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 Roger Stone was arrested this morning in Florida and charged in Mueller Investigation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 And those FBI agents were without pay. I guess at least they got to take the camera with them so they and we could have a moment to treasure... Stone is an odious man and has been for many years. He's everything wrong with the Republican Party of the last 4 decades. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 I wouldn't be surprised if one of those agents sold a tip to CNN. Trump doesn't think anything through so he doesn't seem to realize that he's turned this into a blood feud between him and law enforcement. They will come after him and his associates even harder now if they can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 The indictment is 24 pages. Stone will be appearing in court at around 11 a.m. today. https://www.justice.gov/file/1124706/download 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 The Michael Bennet speech @Roman posted at the top of the page is worth a watch, as Bennet, in his stumbling way, says what we all know (just how much this country is being left behind). It's the closest I've seen to Frank Capra type politics that I've seen in a very long time. The media will ignore this but I hope the Democratic Party will use the video to help get their message out. Being cute and adorable and "clapping back" is not enough - plain, honest speaking has to be included. Speaking of the media, I see that their new "cool conservative" Dan Crenshaw is pushing the line about how everyone is out to get Christians and poor Covington, poor Karen Pence, blah blah blah. Yet the media will continue to parade him as their forever friend and try to push his views of hate and bigotry as the ideal. I wonder if Lorne Michaels has any shame for making him a big part of SNL this season and helping to make him a popular public figure. Lorne Michaels has carried so much water for so many hatemongers that I guess any sense of shame left a long time ago, replaced by big fat checks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) Meanwhile, Mama Khan, along with everyone else who listens to all the kooks on YT, says they finally have enough evidence that Hillary is a pedophile and that the authorities are going to arrest her "any day now." If you really want proof that SNL isn't as good as it used to be, look no further than Dan Crenshaw and Donald Trump's appearances on the show. No way in hell would the original "Not Ready" crew have given them airtime, much less made them look all cute and cuddly. Was it you who said that this would be the breaking point for the shutdown, DD? If so, I think you may be right. I must say I, too, love how this looks like an episode of "C.S.I." or "Criminal Minds," with FBI agents (in flap jackets, no less) storming his residence in the dead of night like they are about to do a raid on a drug cartel.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 It sounds like something I would say, lol. IRL conversations I've had over the past week or so, I have mentioned that perhaps a strike/sick-out was the only way to force the issue. Seeing people in Depression-Era food lines apparently, wasn't enough to generate action so perhaps tangling up a business-class travelers connection to Silicon Valley or Davos might be the answer to ending this ridiculous shutdown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 EDT: Also, if the delays spread to the Atlanta airport, the chaos it will spur will dwarf what's going on at LaGuardia, Newark and Philly airports. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) If you want to track the flight delays, go to the National Airspace System Status (NASS) website. It tracks delays in real time and refreshes every five minutes. You can already see things starting to snowball.

Members DRW50 Posted January 25, 2019 Members Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) More propaganda from Netflix - they bought the film of JD Vance's life that Ron Howard is directing. JD Vance, if you are lucky enough to not know, is the guy the press made into their umpteenth special little conservative angel a few years ago, because growing up rural and poor, he understands how important it is to hate the right people, unlike those big city liberals (oh and people who are rural and poor are lazy and worthless...aside from him, of course, as he is now one of the rich and famous). I last saw him shilling for Justice I Love Beer and the Tiger Mom. Considering the messages of a number of Netflix shows, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the higher ups there are also fans. https://deadline.com/2019/01/netflix-hillbilly-elegy-ron-howard-movie-deal-40m-1202541118/ Edited January 25, 2019 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
