The Second Woman has become semi-obscure for a number of reasons, but Glenn Erickson of CineSavant submits that the movie has been resurrected in decent shape.

So who loves #ExecutiveSuite?! I loved it the first time I saw it umpteen years ago, and I think itβs grown on me ever since. #TCMParty
Me too.!!!
Itβs such a charming film :) #TCMParty
Show up and show out. Keep asking Republicans about lawless ICE agents and Trump's plans for concentration-camp warehouses. Make them own the policies that they were so eager to impose and which have done (and continue to do) so much harm.
Exactly. They want to desperately retreat in this messaging fight. Imperative for Dems to double down even more - especially wrt to DHS funding fight. If the Trump regime is not engaging in "mass deportation" than claw back the ICE/CBP money and transfer it to other departments in DHS (for now).
"That supreme hubris is now breaking up on the shoals of Trumpβs malevolence and incompetence on tariffs, his undisguised white nationalist brutality on immigration, and his sociopathic warmongering amid an obvious lack of any real war rationale."
@gregsargent.bsky.social has been on it.
Cooked.βοΈ
"The advice signals a recalibration by the White House β and reflects growing concern among some Republicans that Democrats are successfully framing Trump's immigration policy as overly sweeping and indiscriminate."
A little late to distance themselves from President Miller. Damage is done.
Political cartoon featuring Donold Drumpf looking into a vehicle rear-view mirror to see the Epstein Files (portrayed as a T-Rex) with the words at the bottom of the mirror stating "OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR."
I wish justice would finally do the right thing and I hope this hounds him for the rest of his days. π€
Happy Monday everyone!! π€£

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβfar higher than the Pentagonβs publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
Right?! πππ
I know! The mid century obsession with circular eating establishments is so funny - I love it - and I miss it. There are just no creatively shaped buildings anymore
I think youβre right re: the art. π But I was intrigued by the three tables on the state of CA - maybe that means they had three locations, north, central and south? π€
The Columbia University 1988 yearbook entry and black and white entry and photograph for Neil Gorsuch: Neil Gorsuch Political Science Editor, Founder, "The Federalist Paper," Phi Gamma Delta βThe illegal we do immediately, the unconstitutional takes a little longer.β β Henry Kissinger August 29, 1967 [Gorsuch's birthday]
Tellingly, future Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch chose to include this βjokeββwhich Kissinger made so frequently that it was cited in the Congressional Record in 1973 in opposition to his nomination as secretary of stateβas part of his undergraduate entry in Columbia Universityβs 1988 yearbook.
An excerpt from the official minutes of a meeting at the Turkish foreign minister's office in Ankara, Turkey, on Monday March 10, 1975, from 5:20-6:30 p.m. The subjects were "aid cut-off" and "Cyprus." Esenbel: "The Europeans should find ways to meet quick needs: for example, the Air Force needs spare parts. For other items that they can't find in the stocks, maybe you could make a deal with the Dutch or others to send it here. [US Ambassador William B.] Macomber: "That is illegal." Kissinger: βBefore the Freedom of Information Act, I used to say at meetings, βThe illegal we do immediately; the unconstitutional takes a little longer.' [laughter] But since the Freedom of Information Act, I'm afraid to say things like that. We'll make a major effort.β
Today in 1975, during a meeting with Turkeyβs Foreign Minister Melih Esenbel in his office in Ankara, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said candidly, βBefore the Freedom of Information Act, I used to say at meetings, βThe illegal we do immediately; the unconstitutional takes a little longer.ββ
We all know Trump is a coward, but the one thing that I think spooks him the most isn't his bad polling numbers, it's when the markets begin to crash and his billionaire donors start yelling at him.
He can't scream "fake news" at that.

This is Boulder Opal stone from Australia.

A type of gemstone that combines a host rock, usually ironstone or sandstone, and a precious opal. As the rock is forming, a silica compound containing water penetrates the rock, and deposits opal in the cracks.
Among those allegations was that #Epstein took photos of her posing nude and tried to extort her mother to keep the images secret. Her mother couldn't afford what was demanded by Epstein, the allegations said, and she stole $22,000 from her real estate firm

Part of my disgust and disdain for so many people in this country is that that they are so easily duped. All that fuck has to do is call some egregious bill the βSAVE AMERICAβ act and the stupids rush to vote against their own interests, while accusing us of not wanting to βsave Americaβ.
It's horrible that we have a President that does so much horrific things to the American people and pledges his allegiance to foreign leadership
and nobody can do anything about it, horrific!!
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

Itβs surprising how often Iβve thought of this bit during the Dump regime, the first time and this time. It often seems to be a perfect fit for the bs that goes on.
General Franco is still dead!
