"The Stormy Watch": Or, Just Another Day With The Gangsters Running Washington D.C.: UPDATE 05/05: SNL "Michael Cohen Wiretap Cold Open" Freaking Hilarious !



I just can't let this one go...and, there doesn't seem to be a great deal of coverage of the Stormy Daniels-Trump affair in the local Mexican press.  Plus, we need a lot of comic relief around here, especially after last month's total of executions in Tijuana at 207...which I will return to.

 Also, a quick update on Paris and Bob: we are tapering back the prednisone for Paris, she is now on one and a half pills only once a day instead of twice a day then next week she will be on one and a half pills every other day.  At that point and after the last week of pills, she returns to the VCA Eye Clinic. However, we did have another emergency.  Last weekend I baked a chicken for Paris and Bob. After it cooked, I took it out of the pan and put it on a plate on the counter.  When my back was turned for just a two seconds, she grabbed the chicken, I screamed, too late, she had devoured a drumstick. Mike rushed out of the shower while I was screaming and slipped.  He's okay. We took her into VCA for x-rays; luckily no splinters showed up. Other than that episode, she is improving.  Bob left his girlfriend he says, we didn't want to pry. The painting around here is going to take until doomsday to finish.

We all know Trump is a dirty old man, besides being a lunatic and a liar. Here are some of the best links and videos regarding the latest in the Stormy Daniels affair so far:

"The Syrian Performance" - And That Is Exactly What It Was...A Performance

courtesy The Intercept:  The Strike



Returning to Trump and attempting to take in the perspectives of "...the Syrian Performance" as all of you are, these are the best to date IMHO:


In plain English and an excellent report, leave it to Glenn Greenwald:

Oh my gosh, Jeffrey St. Clair covers the whole shebang - longish and worth the read:

Update 04/10 : Convinced this was a false flag and it is shameful how the US corporate media and the do-do heads of the Democratic Party including Queen Hillary saluted Trump.  Note the links in the comments section to Glenn Greenwald's report. See ya'll later, hopefully. I guess we were not paying attention to Noam either......


From Alternet to TruthDig....more reports below article:

Chomsky: If Trump Falters with Supporters, a 'Staged or Alleged' Terrorist Attack Could Follow


Here is a very early early link I found over on the Intercept  -  there are many, many more which followed this, justifiably questioning the true nature of the sarin attack and who was responsible - and despite Assad being an asshole, it was not him.
