Well…there has been rampant speculation since the Saudis gave Jared Kushner 2 billion dollars for an “investment” opportunity a few months back…was it a quid pro quo for all of the protection that he gave MBS for the murder of Khashoggi? Was it buying silence from both he and his FIL? With the revelation of the list of the documents that were seized from the idiot trump from his tacky golf club, it was found that he had in his possession a list of payroll records for US spies around the world…yep, the idiot had a list of spies and their compensation and lots of other info about them…and how much do you want to bet that the Saudis bought the document for their buddy Putin? Why else would they give 2 billion dollars to someone with no investment experience at all? Now, this is just another reason for the house to start up an investigation of just how and why jared got the Saudi money….and if idiot boy really did sell that document to them, it is a pure case of treason against the US and it is one of the most serious crimes that you can do…and you know the penalty for that…I wonder if they will find the Saudi ambassador’s fingerprints on that one? trump needs to be arrested today and let the traitor sit and rot in jail until his trial…and then be put away for the rest of his life…geez…
It’s still raining…
Well…here it is at 12:15pm and it is still raining out here and we just had a couple of rumbles of thunder…the radar still shows a couple more hours of rain but I may be able to get out on the bike around 3 or so but I’m debating if I should….it is still only about 60 out here and I had to put socks and long pants on…I was just freezing for a while but it’s better now…I did get the stove and the kitchen sinks cleaned this morning and now I’m just waiting for the ManU match to start in 15 minutes and I’m going to get comfy on the couch and watch it if they don’t suck like they did the last match….not sure if I’m going to do any other work today…probably not…man, it’s raining hard enough that I can hear it…pretty cool…I will say, as I have, that taking it easy is harder than it looks…I’m getting antsy to do something but I hope that passes….
The reasons keep changing, just to make the words rhyme…
Well…it’s been so damn funny to hear the idiot trump’s enablers trying out all of the reasons why they say he isn’t guilty of multiple felonies after the FBI raided his tacky golf club…and now they have settled on a wild lie that trump set up a “blanket declassification” for any top secret papers that he took to his quarters in the WH…which really isn’t a thing at all…there are procedures that have to be followed for declassification and they didn’t follow one of them so, in reality, none of the stuff found was declassified…but, that doesn’t matter anyway since the laws that were broken don’t even mention whether the papers are classified or not..it doesn’t matter, what matters is that he took them and didn’t give them back when asked…and for every page they found, it’s a 10 year sentence…so arrest this prick already…and while you’re at it, get the finger printing of the papers and boxes done asap and the arrest anyone else who handled these documents since just doing that is against the law, too…oh, and one last thing…from the laughing and joking happening on Russian state tv, they already have copies of the stuff that idiot boy took…and that right there is treason and you know what the penalty is for that…the Rosenbergs were hung for giving Russia state secrets…geez…oh, and the title of this one is from a Joe Walsh song…wanted to give credit where it’s due..
August 13th
Well…don’t feel like talking about my crappy sleep today so I won’t…it’s raining out there right now and the radar looks like it’s going to be raining for a few hours so I have a Saturday morning to just sit here, have coffee, and watch some soccer…I think this is probably only the second or third time this has happened all summer and it may even be that elusive day off the bike I’ve been contemplating for a couple of months now….and that means I need to find something else to do and I think cleaning the kitchen should be it…I’ve let the stove get pretty ugly and the sinks need a cleanup, too so I’ll get to that after I read some news and have more coffee…had an okay day yesterday but didn’t do much other than ride…I did see lot of sailboats coming out of the channel on the second ride yesterday and that was pretty cool…must have been 30 of them and they appeared to be all of the same class so it was some kind of organized sail….the lake must have turned over again Thursday night since the water was a good 10 degrees colder than it was Thursday and I just couldn’t force myself to swim in it after having it so nice all week…so it was a short day at the beach and that was a good thing for my skin with not having any sunscreen on by choice….I think I’m as tanned as I’ve been in a long time but I’m still pretty white and that makes me laugh a bit….think I’ve reached my peak tan that I can expect but there are still two weeks left in the summer so who knows? Not much to do today…just going to relax for a while and read the news as I wait for the first soccer match to start…and I’ll be back for a couple of these later….don’t have much else to do….more later….
It’s the espionage act…
Well…now we know what the idiot trump is being investigated for and why the warrant for his tacky golf club…it’s the espionage act…three laws actually…18 usc 793, 2071, and 1519…three damn serious charges that should put him in jail for years…and the first one is a slam dunk since it covers the”willful or grossly negligent removal of information related to national defense…and finding boxes of this information unlocked in his damn golf club makes this an easy case to make…and the 2071 statute deals with the concealment or removal of documents and 1519 deals with the destruction of alteration or falsification of documents that are part of a federal investigation…and idiot boy has done them all…and let’s remember that Reality Winner took one page of this type of documents and is doing 5 years for that one page…so with the boxes and boxes found, trump could be looking at being in jail for the rest of his life…yay! Couldn’t happen to a bigger asshole….geez…now just indict the prick already and let’s see a perp walk….now!
Can’t wait for 3 pm…
Well…damn, I can’t wait for 3 pm and the release of the search warrant and supporting materials for the idiot trump’s tacky golf club…so far, idiot boy hasn’t sued to stop the release and I’m not sure how that would work…I mean, did John Gotti get to sue to stop the release of any of the warrants used to search his house? I think there really can only be two reasons the idiot stole 25 boxes of classified material…the first is to make money off it since he is the most amoral, venal person in the US who only saw profit for him when he was installed as president…or, he was going to use them to trade to get him out of any indictment that he knows is coming…why else do you steal nuclear secrets? He can’t even pronounce the word nuclear correctly and I’m sure he didn’t read any of them since it’s been well reported that he doesn’t read…and the big problem here is two fold…he had some of country’s biggest secrets stored in an unlocked closet in his spy riddled club and I’m sure that every damn one of them has already been photographed by those spies and he doesn’t understand that is enough to make them essentially worthless now…but that isn’t the point…the point is that doing what he did is a felony for every page that he took and he finally is going to pay for this bullshit and I hope for his whole damn life…I’ll be back to comment here after I see the documents….more later…
August 12th
Well…damn, it’s August 12 and it’s only 51 degrees out there…can’t remember it being that cold in August before and I am glad I closed this place up before bed last night…and I think I may have helped the sleep deficit I’ve been experiencing with not getting out of bed until 6:46 this morning and only getting up once….I have pain in my right side this morning and I wonder how I may have hurt it….cripes now I’m hurting myself sleeping? That’s what you younger folks have to look forward to…sounds like fun, huh? Had an okay day yesterday but didn’t get much done but making potato salad and going out to the beach and I didn’t have sunscreen on so had to use aloe last night with the burn I got on my face and scalp…it’s not that bad but just tight and I don’t want it to peel….I did use the bug spray I bought to keep the biting flies away at the beach yesterday…those damn little things were making it uncomfortable but the Off deep woods seems like it works but keeping it in the cooler might not be a good idea…damn, that goes on cold but it has a nice smell….it looks like I’m not going to get enough tomatoes to make a batch of salsa this year or to spread them around the neighborhood and I can’t figure that out…have never had so few of them since I’ve had a garden and I’m not sure if it’s something I did or if it’s just chance….will have to figure that out over the winter….not much to do today…getting a late start since it is already after 7:30 but I am not motivated to get going right now…maybe by 8 but who knows? I do have to cook some chicken thighs later today and I am going to make tacos over the weekend to use some of the tomatoes I do have….and I am looking forward to making pickles as soon as the cukes are ready but that will be another week I think….more later….
Merrick Garland’s mic drop moment…
Well…if you saw or read the news since the serving of the warrant on the idiot trump’s tacky golf course, the right has been going on and on and on if the search warrant was legal, why doesn’t the DOJ release it and the list of things seized…they must be covering something up…so today, Merrick Garland gave a press conference saying that he has petitioned a judge to allow him to release the warrant that will list all of the laws that were broken and the things that were to be seized…and he has given idiot boy til tomorrow at 3 pm to file a motion with the judge why it shouldn’t be or it will be released…something that trump could have done himself since he has copies of both but he knows that he will really look like a criminal if it is. All I can say is well played, Garland…he is calling all of the bullshit that has come out of the right since the warrant was executed…so what do you say now, fox news? I may have been wrong about Garland and my bitching that he and the doj were not doing enough to hold the criminal trump accountable…and I will say it…I was wrong…Garland is doing exactly what the doj should always do…following the evidence wherever it leads no matter who it leads to…good job….
A train of Model A’s
Well…when I was out at the beach today and had just gotten settled in my chair enjoying the sun and water, I looked up just in time to see a train of Model A’s go by…those are old Fords that were made in the 1930’s and these were all restored better than new…and it looked like there was one of every body style including a 32 Victoria that I had a model of when I was a kid…there was even one body style I had never seen that had an actual steamer trunk for a trunk so it may have been another make they were so far away I couldn’t be sure…but still pretty cool to see….
440 fifths…
Well…normally, when you hear 440 fifths you think that someone is going to have a hell of a party or there was a booze hijacking somewhere…but no, that’s not what this is about…that is how many times the idiot trump took the fifth in a deposition yesterday on his fraudulent activity where he inflated the worth of his properties to get loans and the deflated them when it came time to pay taxes on the property….this is a common activity that idiot boy has engaged in since his daddy gifted him with 400 million dollars when he died…now, I’m the first person to say that using your constitutional rights is the right of any American and in a criminal court, it can’t be construed to mean the person is guilty….but, in a civil court, taking the fifth can be highlighted as the person having a “consciousness of guilt” that can be used against them…so I guess his lawyers thought it was better to plead the fifth than to expose him to perjury charges since idiot boy lies as much as he breathes….and that put’s him in the lead of time the fifth was taken as the investigation of his companies continues…doubling the number of times his kids did it….so, I hope James does bring another civil suit against this criminal asshole and finally puts him away…it’s race to see who does it and my money is on the prosecutor in Georgia investigating voter fraud there…someone get him…geez…
