Disgraceful and embarrassing.
What next? Pawn Stars tents? Cockfights? Midget tossing? Girls in bikinis wrestling in jello?
Maybe they’ll turn the South Lawn into a giant parking lot for gas-guzzling monster trucks and tote-the-note rust buckets. Warm watered-down beer on tap. Premium seating on stuffed brown suede sofas splitting apart. A metal spike hammered into the former rose garden to tether chained pit bulls.
When it comes to the orange ass-slob, nothing surprises nor shocks me anymore.
Fucking lowlife trailer trash. Yet another desecration of the office and shame of our nation.

“LADIES FIRST” ON NETFLIX (MY REVIEW)
Way back in junior high school, in 1975, I appeared in my very first stage play. Our drama teacher was Mr. Brewer–I still remember his name. He made a bold decision for us to perform If Boys Wore the Skirts: A Farce in One Act — by Anne Coulter Martens. It was a polemical play about self-identity and gender reversal. All males in the cast wore skirts and were in subservient roles. All females in the cast wore long pants and were in dominant roles. I played the school’s star football player. And yes–I wore a skirt onstage along with a football jersey. When we performed the play live in front of the entire school including students and teachers, there were hecklers and much laughter. But it was all great fun. The challenge of that unusual experience really made me enjoy theatre and musicals, which I did from then on until graduating from high school.

MY 25 PICKS FOR FAVORITE / BEST AND WORST WORLD WAR II MOVIES (RANKED)
This Memorial Day weekend, I’ve ranked my most (and least) favorite World War II movies.
Based on IMDB listings, there are roughly 6,000 films related to WW2, which stands above all other subjects as the most recycled historical event in movies.
Note that these are my “favorite” movies, which isn’t quite the same thing as the “greatest” movies — though there’s some obvious crossover. I based my #number# rankings on how many occasions I’ve seen the movie (in some cases, numerous times) and the chances I would want to watch it again. In some cases, a movie can be great but I also don’t want to see it a third or fourth time. Once is plenty enough. So, it’s all subjective, and admittedly inconsistent. Nonetheless, let’s take this occasion to remember the best and worst WW2 films.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS NOW OFFICIALLY DEAD
With the destruction of Rep. Massie in Kentucky tonight by Trump on his revenge campaign, the last whisper of GOP sanity has now been silenced
Whatever tattered scraps of consistency and decency that were still burrowed within the bloated malignancy of rotting red meat known as Republican Party USA officially died on Tuesday night.

A SHORT RANT ABOUT A LONG LINE — AND A QUICK QUESTION
A new restaurant recently opened that’s near me. It’s a counter-service, fast-food, takeout joint called “The Hat.”

“60 MINUTES”….YOUR TIME IS UP
For 50 years, CBS “60 Minutes” was my Sunday school. From the mid-1970s, up until just a few years ago, the familiar sound of a ticking stopwatch marked the end of one week–and the start of another. Program hosts — Reasoner, Bradley, Wallace, Safer, Rather and those who later filled investigative journalist duties that couldn’t possibly be equalled — were invited weekly into my living room, becoming de facto members of the family. While others attended church on Sundays, my religion was NFL football in the daytime and the legendary television news magazine in the evening then at the pinnacle of its popularity.

WOMEN RULE:
DID YOU KNOW THIS ABOUT NEVADA?
This past Saturday, I had the rare opportunity to spend the afternoon with Congresswoman Susie Lee. She’s been a member of the U.S. House of Representatives since the 2018 mid-term election. Rep. Lee represents most of the west side of Las Vegas, including my home district.

THREE CON DONNIE DEALS DIRTY
A weekly reminder ….. more false promises and outright lies coming up about a new peace deal in the next few days soon followed by the bait and switch by early next week.
Move over, street corner three-card Monte dealer. It’s Three-Con Donnie!
Why does anyone — especially supposedly intelligent investors in markets — fall for one bullshit lie…. after another bullshit lie… after another bullshit lie? You’re playing a shell game you can’t win.
Iran, not the United States, now holds most of the cards in this war. That includes home-field advantage and a majority of global public opinion. So, Trump is once again saying Iran “conceded” to several demands? Oh, really? Let’s hear it from Iran. I’d be paying attention to WHAT THEY DO, rather than what the idiot says or posts. Anything coming from Trump (or his cult orbit) is worthy of skepticism. Nothing Trump says about anything is credible. And, even if (or when) an agreement is signed, no one can trust that Trump will honor it, nor change his feeble distracted mind later.
There is nothing to negotiate at this point, and Iran knows it.
