Special
Prosecutor Muller has handed down at least two indictments we learn this
morning, though it isn’t getting a lot of air play. These were returned by a grand jury so it’s
official. One was campaign chairman Paul
Manifort. The other was of one time
administration guy Flynn. As National
Security advisor he’s in the position of a lot of sensitive information. Both
concern the Russian connection and people are naturally assuming these are two
of many to follow. As a liberal I’d just
like to see the news flooded with reports of court trials of these people and
hopefully a guilty verdict. Trump is
trying to make something out of the “discovery” that Hillary funded the
investigation of the “Russian Connection” with Russian hookers and golden
showers and all that. But Hillary only
picked up the baton from other Republicans.
And all of the information in this ‘investigation” is either fully verified
or unsubstantiated. Nothing in it has
been shown to be downright false. Now
there is a rumor that Trump teamed up with Julian Assange to find Hillary’s
missing E mails. Of course FOX news in
their twisted minds is good at making Hillary look bad. FOX would believe in space aliens if it
served the conservative cause. As to
this uranium story about Hillary arranging to sell Russia twenty percent of US
uranium reserves, no responsible journalist takes this story seriously. In other news this White Fish power company
out of Montana with just two employees (?) was given a “no bid” contract to
restore the power in Puerto Rico. There
is a lot of question of political scandal and apparently the interior secretary
is from Montana. They are paying people several
hundred dollars an hour to do the work.
I like to see employees treated well but something else is going on
here. And then we have this Blue
Mountain bank or finance agency or whatever - - and I guess they’re a hedge
fund. I’m not sure why they call them
that. But they are the vulture fund that
is squeezing every penny out of the citizens of Puerto Rico making them do
without vital services such as hospitals and schools. They buy up bonds and jack up the original
rates astronomically. I don’t see how
that’s legal. If you agree to pay at a
certain interest rate and time interval, how was a third party have a right to
change that? I need to Google “Blue Mountain”. It sounds like a bunch of hillbillies from
Kentucky. These are like Trump's primary support group.
We
have the Civil War in Spain now. Catalon
is a separate language and culture and these people are demanding respect. People are saying that these ethnic
independence movements will become more pervaisive as discontent with a central
government increases world wide. Of course
Scotland still wants to be independent and Scotland also voted to stay in the
European Union. I’ve heard of the
Catalon language but I didn’t know it was centered in Barcelona. Of course they had that vote two weeks ago
for independence but the military came and forcibly stopped the election. I know that Catalon is a separate
language. My Spanish teacher talked
about it in high school. Are these the
same people who pronounce a “z” as a “th” sound so every time they say the word
“azul” it comes off as “a-thul” like somebody hanging a lugy.
Trump
is suddenly concerned about the opeoid crisis, or however you spell it. That’s all well and good but does that mean
Trump wants to reform that law passed by congress to make it easier for the DEA
to go after doctor drug pushers? If you’re
a conspiracy person you have to be worried about Trump putting people in NASA
who are against “global warming” and will put a stop to weather reports from satellites
we launch which give us information on this.
We have no way of knowing what sort of deals with polluters President Trump
has actually made. Apparently Trump isn’t
so Paranoid that he’s not afraid to release the Kennedy Assassination
material. J Edger Hoover apparently sent a memo to LBJ
to the effect that it’s important for the American people to believe that Lee
Harvey Oswald acted alone. But a lot of
the assassination stuff revolves around FBI surveillance of Martin Luther
King. And there is a lot of CIA stuff
about tracking Oswald in Mexico City and in Moscow. Of course we know that Oswald was a member
of the “Fair Play for Cuba” committee.
Of course Bobby Kennedy always made public statements expressing total
confidence and supporting the Warren Commission Report. For whatever reason the Kennedy family has
always been secretive about this.
The
Houston Astros are up two games to one now and the Dodgers are officially
trailing in the Series so it’ll have to be at least a six game Series for the
Dodgers to win, and probably seven. The final score was 5 to 3 Houston and Dodger scoring was later in the game. I
think games six and seven are Tuesday and Wednesday if I count right. Last night in Houston the Dodgers ran into
some bad pitching with their starter who was having an off day and Houston
scored four runs. The Dodgers did better
after that holding Houston to only one more run. In the late innings Houston had a lot of men
on base that didn’t score. The crowd was
thunderous. The game ran a little past
nine o clock. Last night I started
watching at the bottom of the first inning.
Maybe I had a little network news on here and there. I got medication from Leah, and we are still
in a peanut butter and jelly drought which has been at least two seeks. While outside I heard “In Cars” playing on
Nancy’s radio. Alarm bells went off
because I had to check and confirm that song was on one of our rock
compilations. It turned out it wasn’t
despite an exhaustive search of the words “in cars”. I ran into other stuff. So I
added the track immediately and got rid of “Dun Ringel” by live Jethro
Tull. Otherwise I had on the tattoo lady
on KNBC a little and then there was some Bermuda Triangle thing on CBS
later. You don’t normally think of a
nice island being in the heart of the Bermuda Triangle.
