I guess I need to get to the library more often. One of my choir members works there, and she has said nothing of the fun.

The most recent activity I remember hearing about was the presentation on African American composers, which I sadly missed. Not quite as interesting as the sex den book group.

Hey looky what just popped up for me on FoxNews.
Fox News wrote:Marjorie Taylor Greene is an idiot. She is trying to wreck the GOP
Rep Marjorie Taylor Green needs to be clear about what's really at stake in 2024
By Liz Peek - Fox News
:snippity:
Greene, who was elected by a total of 170,162 voters in 2022 in a district that the Cook Report rates R+22, doesn’t like any of it and would rather burn down the House, metaphorically speaking, than work towards the greater good. The greater good, unless she and her fellow discontents in Congress have forgotten, is defeating Joe Biden in November.

I mean, it would be hysterical if after all the accusations about who was an undercover Fed, it turns out after all this time...

And justice shall be done.

I blame the judge. Why do I need to know that one of the jurors is an oncologist, or that two of them are attorneys? Today he told the media to use common sense. Yeah, that's what Jesse Watters is all about, is using common sense. Jeazess H. Kreist. I am disgust.

Aren't the prospective jurors questioned in open court? Anyone in the room can write down these details and make them public.

Am I wrong?

Attending his trial is "cruel and unusual punishment?" As if.

One might think that if tfg is too old and decrepit to sit in a courtroom, he is probably too old and decrepit to serve as president.

It would seem.

The cruel and unusual punishment is making him sit there and listen to what people really think of him. If he needs so much sunshine and exercise perhaps he should stick to what he does best - cheating at golf. If he can't handle this how's he going to deal with sitting in a 6x8 jail cell?

Clearly, then, we could improve his situation by stashing him in Gitmo for the duration of the trial, right?

Yes, because Gitmo prisoners have access to limos and security details and billionaire lifestyles.

STFU Jesse.

i scrolled by something the other day that bemoaned how this poor nearly 80-year-old man was being treated. When he's a victim, he's frail elderly. When he's candidate, he's a robust and youthful powerhouse.

“Alice laughed. 'There's no use trying,' she said. 'One can't believe impossible things.'

I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. 'When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. There goes the shawl again!”
― Lewis Carroll
Biden opponents claim he's decrepit and stupid on the one hand, and cagey brilliant on the other hand. He's too dumb to organize a piss-up in a brewery on the one hand, but he is able to run the deep state illuminati world wide conspiracy on the other.

If you can't keep those comprehend those dichotomies you just haven't had enough practice.

So far, the only legal *experts* I've heard complaining about how badly this is going for the prosecution and there's no case, has been on Fox unless it happened and I missed it. All the talking legal heads on CNN and MSNBC say pecker was a great witness.

As for the news about the elector indictments in AZ, has anyone even heard a mention of it on Fox? I don't have them on 24/7, but I haven't heard mention of it. Liddle Eric gave Bartiromo a good opening to ask about Christina Bobb indictment and does that pose problems for her serving as head of voting ethics or whatever her title is. Of course, Bartiromo blew past that opportunity.

Dunno about the TV side, but I did a run-by of focksnews.com today, and there was no mention on the front page, the politics page, or in the responses to a search for "arizona".

Sometimes something shows up a day or two after the fact (when they get their stories straight).

I saw a clip of a 20 second segment on one of their “straight” news programs. I think that’s been it though.
