Trump Shooting

"Where could the shooter have possibly gotten the idea that guns solve problems?"

“Elon Musk, Bill Ackman, and other right-leaning executives officially endorsed Trump after an assassination attempt”

You really think this is surprising? This was expected. Trump wants that ring kissed and they want those tax cuts.

Quid pro quo is okay, SCOTUS said so!

Most of my friends know that I volunteer with my county Democratic Party. Nevertheless, EVERY TIME they get some bad news - like today’s dismissal of Trump’s classified documents case - they literally tell me to “talk them off the ledge” as they panic over a second Trump term. Frankly, I’m sick of it. If they don’t want to volunteer, they can donate to candidates up and down the ballot. Action is our ONLY recourse. I’m as aggrieved as anyone but freaking out is not the answer.

So, yeah. The assassination attempt will change nothing.

The media articles today reminded me of the Jo Cox murder. A rightwing goon killed this UK MP in broad daylight while shouting "Britain first" in the run-up to the vote.
When this happened, I thought this was it. This was the signal to end the bitter division sowed by the Leave campaign. For one day, this was true. The very next day, they continued with their divisive campaigns, and the UK was embroiled in paralyzing infightings for several years.

Further toward absolutism and neoserfdom. No wonder eLOL is such a fanboi.

What's the going rate for a judge these days? Should I get multiple bids? I couldn't find any posted on Craigslist.

Today sees the release of Curzon Film's six-disc Collection of the mighty, mesmerising works of Peter Strickland, one of my very favourite filmmakers. This includes 5 features, 23 shorts & loads of extras. Truly honoured to have contributed a booklet essay.
