I recommend the administration watch the movie Traffic until this scene sinks in - at this point we're well past the second letter. www.youtube.com/watch?v=N96a...

Given most of his days are made up of "executive" time, this will be . . . amazing. The fact that the funeral comes after two major heads of state meetings will push him to the limit. I don't see how he manages it all, even if he naps in the car.

I think the idea was that "this baby pretty much runs itself" and that the SecDef need only not gut the DOD's ranks of excellent talent to keep things on track. Of course, instead he went on a partisan firing spree and blocked promotions. Had he just been sleeping he would have "run" it far better.

“I think there’s a sense . . . that maybe our strategy didn’t factor in the Strait of Hormuz or [Iran’s] ability to be willing to hit their neighbors. I think there was some miscalculations maybe,” the senator said. Battle of the Somme plan great, but for machine guns. thehill.com/homenews/sen...

For those who are rank apologists for Nixon, have we zeroed on on what "kind" of plumbers though?

Question - what role does the DOJ have in policing "civil" contempt if the judge imposes it. To avoid daily fines the DOJ would have to seek and receive - at least - a stay from a higher court. There's a reason the DOJ fought so hard to stay contempt in the Boasberg matter (at the DC Circuit), no?

Putting the style back in stylus.TM

That's a thin reed upon which to rest your argument.

It's been a long time since I saw it. Credits where it's due.

Those who forget the meanings of acronyms are doomed to repeat them.

We would also have accepted "locked down" replies.

This could become the 21st Century's "I only buy Playboy for the articles." Married men, though, will both need to explain the sudden appearance of OnlyFans charges on the Visa bill and saying "it's only for the Marmots" will itself require a quick explanation that this is not as bad as it sounds.

Exactly "how" did the guy who was forced to bug out of Afghanistan because of Trump's ridiculous move to get out of that conflict end up depleting the stockpiles. The guy who took on a regional power (Iran) for 5 months, for no good reason, perhaps though . . .

2 of 2 (film guy here), mind blowing trivia follows. The Monkees' producers were Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider. Rafelson went on to direct films like Five Easy Pieces and The King of Marvin Gardens, while Schneider produced Easy Rider and The Last Picture Show.

Monkees Trivia (you likely know the first but not the second one here). 1 of 2. Mike Nesmith's mother, Bette Nesmith Graham, invented Liquid Paper — the white correction fluid used for typos on paper documents. Sold the co. to Gilette for $47.5 million. When she died in 1980 he became very wealthy.

The song - Me & Magdalena. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ffru...

I grew up when they were an (admittedly distant rerun) thing. I was shocked when a music service ran a song I had never heard and I loved it . . . then I looked up "who" made it. My mind was blown as it was from a 2016 Monkees album. As a fan of Billy Bragg, Black Sabbath and AC/DC, I was shook.

Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, and Katharine Hepburn arrive at London Airport in July 1951, after filming on location in Africa for THE AFRICAN QUEEN.

The ghost of Dick Cheney right now.

Remember when the hated leader of (then New Amsterdam) tried to rally its inhabitants to fight the invading British and . . . well, they all ignored him and it came to be know as New York. Those vibes.
