He is going to be swatting at multiple lawsuits and criminal charges for the next few years…that is if he can find a lawyer stupid enough to represent him.
Don’t look now but the Covid beta variant is gaining a foothold on the European continent–
"The beta variant currently accounts for about 7% of virus samples in Spain, 6% in South Africa, 4% in France, and just 0.1% in the United States. In comparison, the United States, the delta variant accounts for about 83% of Covid-19 cases.
Nonetheless, experts have said that when compared to earlier variants of the coronavirus, the mutations on the beta variant make it more transmissible, with greater antibody resistance."
Run, Ginger! Run!

The Modern Confederates are such fucking snowflakes.
When they aren’t armed and totally outnumber their opponents.

What’s remarkable to me is how often they assume far greater support than they actually have, because they live in a media bubble that doesn’t tell them how much in the minority they actually are.

I sometimes try to imagine what this country’s political discourse and landscape would be right now if Ted Kennedy hadn’t supported allowing Rupert Murdoch, then a foreigner, a waiver so that he could own TV in addition to his American print media holdings.

My doctor told me in March that he hadn’t yet gotten the vaccine, taking abundant time to explain that he was waiting for more data or some such nonsense. And he’d convinced his staff to not get it too, including a young assistant with two little kids. Last week I got a recorded call from him that both he and his assistant have covid, that they were exposed 9 days earlier. Two days later he was admitted to the hospital (he’s in his early fifties). I don’t know if he’s still alive or on a ventilator. His assistant was also very sick, though I don’t know if she ended up in the hospital. Assuming it was the delta variant, can you imagine how many of his patients he exposed before he got sick? He must have been very contagious for at least a few days. If I were one of his patients who come down with covid after being exposed to him I would seriously consider a malpractice suit. I haven’t seen him since March, and I will never see him again because I’ve found a new doctor, thank you very much. I feel bad for his assistant, but find my well of sympathy quite dry when it comes to him.

The next time those clowns try to do that protesters should blast this instead of the whistle!
Nancy Pelosi is quite a instigator… running for her life while at the same time responsible for the violent Capital attack that was trying to kill her. An incredible feat.

This “Tantric Sex” thing seems to me to be part of that Hindoo idolatry. How come her Christian constituents find that acceptable?

Actually what I’m fucking saying is convict him of one of the many serious crimes he’s already committed. Very amusing observation, though.

Always thought there was a certain adolescent histrionic quality to most of it. He’s the Michael Bay of opera.
Because most hands have 5 fingers!

I grew up on classical music, have tons of records from my dad, some operas have very great moments, most don’t.
I think my formative years were more formative than I care to realize.

How does COVID do that? ; - )
I understand evolution and mutation, but this seems an awful like they’re smarter than us!
To convict, you need a jury ready to listen with an open mind. Think about how long it took to bring Medgar Evers’ killer to justice, mostly because juries wouldn’t convict.
We need to convict everyone in Trump’s circle. He’s unlikely to defend them and we need to make it clear to the next batch of evil henchmen that they’re going down if they commit crimes. Taking down Trump would be really nice, but it’s a gamble, even with the most water-tight case.
