I always have thought when all those bands heard Appetite for Destruction the first time they must’ve all thought “well we’ve had a good run boys but we are fucked”

Same here. Glad she’s having fun, and keeping her distance from that crime family. (I wonder what she really thinks of Princess Vanky). Dodging them like she dodged Daddy’s gross kiss.

Moral of the story: if you can find a genuine old fashioned railroad trip, with proper first class staterooms and white linen restaurant car, and you assure your partner/spouse is with you, it’s a romantic, nostalgic excursion.

“Process crimes” is a rightwing talking point to make it all seem like jaywalking. Lying to the authorities/prosecutors/FBI, witness tampering, and obstruction of justice are still crimes.

They are both on vacation. Sigh.

Let’s just remember that it was Trump darling Kim’s regime that jailed and convicted American citizen Otto Warmbier on flimsy pretext, then tortured and beat the shit out of him for two years, delivering him eventually to his family in a vegetative state, beaten and broken, where he died days later.

The Washington Times is a venereal shitrag owned by a notorious weirdo cultist, Sun Myung Moon. People here and abroad get confused (purposefully?) by its respectable-sounding name, but it’s a stinking rightwing whorehouse. Welcome Scotty! You’ll fit right in. 

I agree completely.  Maher’s a smug bastard. I watch Real Time too, mostly because it’s current and not much else on a Friday night, and to see what wretched “conservative”’s ass Bill wants to kiss that night. 

I just read it in January, and then read the whole thing over again to savor it anew. There are TOO many great anecdotes to count, and he’s such a brilliant writer and storyteller. The whole chapter on Hudson Hawk’s filming is surreal. Your recommendation is spot on!

Have you been reading John Crace in the Guardian? His daily musings over the Maybot are really funny.  He calls her Leader In Name Only, or Lino- “hard to nail down, easy to walk over.” He’s aces. 

And who the fuck are all of those supposed college students behind him?

Thanks, I never tire of seeing Trixie on the far right of the picture.  Went from the nightclub to the funeral, with an eye out for husband #4.  Atta girl. 

Yeah, I suppose a prez has to sign off on it, but Trump acts like the Capitol rotunda was his own personal property he graciously allowed them to use or something. Thanklessly! Goddamn I hate this fucker.

Haha at the Graydon Carter aside. I mean I suspected he could be a vengeful bitch, but I’ve never heard anyone actually say so! :)

Tragic!   I understand one of them was little, and red, and much too fast. 

This is great reporting Anna, thank you. Just infuriating, I feel so bad for these kids exposed to such quackery.

Really interesting in the graphic that Jacinda Ardern covers the funeral costs for the 51 victims.

About Colmes (bless him) he was chosen not only to be a pinata, but also he resembled a nerd (nothing wrong with that) and was meant to represent liberals as ineffectual wimps, the better to portray Hannity as manly and assertive. Some comedian at the time noted that, “On Fox they like to beat up on a liberal, they…

Kremlin fan Glenn Greenwald has been tauntingly tweeting, “No impeachment? Oh, I thought Trump was in thrall to those scary Russians. If Trump was a puppet of Putin’s, wouldn’t the libs do everything in their power to remove him, hmmm?”

I used to notice that in the small print publishing info on the splash pages of DC comics when I was a kid. Vaguely sinister!
