Stone’s Time In The Barrel?
So yesterday was all Manafort all the time. Today may very well be Roger Stone and Jerome Corsi. Jerome Corsi was a Soldier in the Stone Gang, senior enough to be trusted with a major continuing operation like disposing of stolen goods from a burglary but not a decision maker. Puzzled by my use of …

Sometimes, they’re not funny. Emantic Fitzgerald Bradford Jr. The Second Amendment is not for Black people. The Second Amendment states: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Why was the term “free State” used, rather …

Not Done Catching Up
I’m really surprised at the fact that both Seth and Stephen were all live last week. I kind of missed most of it as I was watching other things, but YouTube is good like that. IKEA has declared war on Stockmanns over sweeping forest broom tariffs! Honey, I suppressed myself! Traitor Pence

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chinatown.
Look, it’s been 44 years since it’s release so I trust I’m not “spoiling” things (Ilsa flies off with Victor and Blaine and Renault disappear into the fog while La Marseillaise swells in the background). The big reveal in Chinatown is that Katherine is Evelyn’s sister and her daughter. Ok, that says something about how …
