   Don’t forget that DJT’s buddy, Vladimir Putin, was a lifelong admirer of Josef Stalin! One of the most ruthless heads of state ever!

   I have never been to GA, but was glad when Biden won your state in 2020 (the first Democratic Presidential candidate to win the state since Bill Clinton in 1992) and when Rafael Warnock was elected the state’s first African American Senator. But that year was also when MTG was elected to the 14th Congressional District. I know that particular district is heavily gerrymandered, but my hope is that she gets defeated in November! She got kicked out of the Freedom Caucus as I recall, you have to be a piece of work when even that crew of fools doesn’t want you!

   Byte Dance (the company that owns TikTok) is already challenging this ban in court, which could drag on for quite some time. So, I’m not expecting TikTok to go away anytime soon. I do think that social media in general should have guardrails to protect personal data like the EU did in the nineties. The Djinn of social media is not likely to be squeezed back into the bottle anytime soon (if at all), but we can set up stronger ground rules for what is said online and how personal data is processed.

   DJT’s Hush money trial is just starting, and so far it’s a good show. I don’t know yet if he’ll finally be convicted but right now, I’m feeling pretty confident. If convicted, he could get federal prison but he’ll more likely get house arrest at Mar a Lago. His oversized ego will likely keep him in the race, but independent swing voters might be reluctant to vote for a convicted felon, but we’ll see.

   With oral arguments starting today in Trump’s NYC hush money trial, Trump might well end up with at least some convictions. That’s my hope anyway. If Trump is convicted in NYC (and perhaps in later cases in GA and DC), there is a good chance that Trump will get house arrest as opposed to federal prison. If such be the case, his oversized ego would likely keep him in the race. But independent swing voters (who essentially do the deciding in general elections) might be reluctant to vote for a convicted felon. But for now, my eye will be on the NYC court and how the trials go.

   I am with you on that one. In the 90’s and Aughts, Maher was a favorite of mine as far as satirists go. But just as Dennis Miller had become a total neocon, Maher has turned into a very snide individual! Not to mention an Islamaphobe and castigator of “wokeness”. Pretty sad.

   For all the talk about “Sleepy Joe”, Trump sure seems to have trouble staying awake during the setting up of the jury. Hopefully, he can stay somewhat alert when oral arguments start tomorrow!

    Gee, Lisa, I saw on the news yesterday evening that the Trump jury (12 regular jurors and 6 alternates) were seated and that they’ll be hearing oral arguments this coming Monday. Time will tell if Trump finally gets convicted of at least some of the charges laid against him. Or if the cases in GA and DC move faster as a result. But my hope is that Trump finally ends up with a conviction! I don’t expect Trump to go to jail as a result, he’s more likely to get house arrest at Mar a Lago IMOHO. If so, his oversized ego will likely keep him in the race (it’s pretty difficult to run from prison I believe). Independent swing voters might be reluctant to vote for a convicted felon though, but we’ll see.
