Peaky Blinders (Netflix) - 17 days ago

While doing due diligence before ending my decade long Netflix billing, I came across this N/F original. A Brit production, it seemed a cross of Sopranos, Roma life with a bit of every other street gang series spanning decades and woven with political context that resonates today. Six seasons, of which I've binged five heading toward six. I'd give it a 'should see before quitting N/F'

While he may not have planned it, he did set the table. Bibi seems to be, not unlike Trump, a man without a soul both destined for adjoining rooms, if such things exist, in an afterlife - if such a thing exists.

Re: Jill Stein announces she will seek the Green Party nomination - 22 days ago

There's a bigger problem with your own appeal to the electorate if one or two minor candidates are enough to cause a defeat. The flaws in our electoral system and willingness to exploit them are becoming a larger issue than I've seen in my lifetime. Not sure given the polarization it's even fixable.

Re: Potential government shutdown and "moderate" House Republicans - 22 days ago

A governance issue that normally is dealt with one time is now becoming weaponized to both keep it alive in the press and allow a continuing flow of fundraising dollars. A small right wing sliver of elected officials have gamed the system in heretofore unseen ways. All allowed because the shrinking middle of GOP elected officials has proven to have no principal, ethic or backbone until they r

There's may be few positives that arise from election campaigns but seeing DeSantis exposed for the empty suit he is may turn out to be the highlight of this primary season. Not sure he will even stand for another elected office following this debacle of a campaign.
