- (1:29) SPECIAL COMMENT: As he sentenced the 1/6 defendant, Federal Judge Paul L. Friedman spoke clearly and on the record: “There are still people who believe the election was rigged. There are still people who support Donald Trump, though not many showed up at the court in Manhattan. We’ll see what happens here at THIS COURT WHEN THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT MOVES IN A FEW MONTHS, I SUSPECT.”
- What the … heck?
- Was Judge Paul L. Friedman ruminating? Surmising? Telling us things maybe he knows that we don’t? His comments were a warning that we are now in a time when January 6 Trumpian violence could easily be repeated with an eye towards 2024. Whatever they meant, they are the most intriguing yet made about Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation of The Defendant.
- Also Stephen Miller testified to Smith’s Grand Jury again (even though it was daytime), and Alvin Bragg clapped back at Jim Jordan and Trump’s other henchmen by suing to quash their subpoena for his records and his testimony.
- And maybe best of all, The Defendant told a credulous Tucker Carlson that as he was being arrested and processed last week, “They signed me in and I’ll tell you people were crying. People that work there. Professionally work there, that have no problems putting in murderers and they see everybody. It’s a tough, tough place and they were crying. They were actually crying. They said, ‘I’m sorry.’ “
- Well, look, it’s POSSIBLE. I mean if you or I had to listen to him in person, we’d probably burst into tears as well.

Which raises the question even louder: What did the GOP expect they’d get out of this?
BTW, I’m the one who nicknamed Bill Lee, because of this picture of him in drag that he doesn’t want anyone to see.
Come on, Keith. In Texas, newborns are old enough to legally drink. How else can you explain their voting patterns?

- (28:34) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Sammy, dumped by his family in December, is on the kill list tomorrow in New York.
- (29:56) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I basically have done no drinking since July 25, 1982, because that was the day I had as many as 40 beers in ONE DAY and still showed up on the air at radio at 5:30 the following morning and at CNN at 9:30. Do not try this at home, or anywhere else. It’s called “Functional Alcoholism”.
That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
