  1. Dolla Dolla Bills Y'all! 

    Everything online of course is with a grain of salt but it has been all but confirmed at a minimum that some donors had given up on Gundy and are likely back in the fold. How much? Who knows. I'm surprised NWA with all its business interests just aren't there yet with football NIL. I think its true based solely on their outcomes.

    Mike Johnson's reaction would indicate they haven't finished anything and fully expected this to be kicked back to the House. 

    These aren't very smart people.

    Only a portion of gop voters are that stupid. The rest are just fucking liars and accept that their party, each and every one of them, is incapable of truth.

    Johnson is not happy at all. He’s lost control, and Trump by proxy.  He was trying to blame Schumer, but he’s rattled it went straight to the floor and was voted on.

     

    How many times does it need to be said that they are the fucking majority? Blaming the minority leader is such dishonest bullshit.

    My first instinct was that Trump's 180 meant that the GOP had finished scrubbing the Epstein info in such a way that it wouldn't hurt any of them and it would hurt prominent Dems.  But you may be right that they don't intend to let any of it come out anyway.

    Either way, or both, it is definitely all about optics ahead of the mid-terms.  It's also deflecting from their ongoing efforts to gerrymander the mid-terms.

    And coming soon, war porn to rile up the base and some more bullshit positive economic news.

    They're going to tell enough lies to get as close as they can to enough votes to retain Congress, then they're going to steal the rest.

    I’m pretty sure the bill says to release all “non classified” portions of the file so they’ll just classify all the republican stuff.

  5. Remember when "I was for it before I was against it" ended a campaign? I guess "I was against it before I was for it" is different. Gop voters are literally the most gullible people on earth. Even back then all they needed was a stupid soundbite like "flip flopper" to win elections. Now a gop candidate can literally rape children and win over a brown woman who some people thought laughed a little oddly.

    That's the other 30 percent. The hard-core base thats so racist they don't care if they lose their jobs or if trump is a pedophile. 

    About 70 percent also want the deportations and hate the gays and trans, but they want the Epstein files and cheaper groceries more.

    All of this was done after last year's election, and elections are the only way to see if they care or not. All we've had is a small off year election early this month and trump got destroyed in it everywhere from New Jersey to a couple of house seats in Mississippi. 

    We won't know for sure whether they care or not until next November, provided trump is too incompetent to rig it. It's all reading the tea leaves until then, but if this last election is any indication that 70 percent number is probably close to reality. 

    Man I just can't agree with those numbers. We'll need to wait for the midterms to see if there's any movement but I maintain that immigration and transpanic will be the overwheliming winner. I don't think Mamdani winning means much other than NYC is quite liberal and Cuomo is a huge piece of shit.

    I liked the show, didn’t like the ending.

    I’m not familiar with Harjo. Is a super tidy, cheery ending his style? All the bad guys die. Donald does the right thing. The Natives get their land back. Samantha marries a man that makes her happy. Lee bonds with his daughter. Feels like a Harjo dream board more than an actual ending. Does he write solo without notes like Sheridan?

    I like how the show came full circle. Hangout show to murder mystery back to hangout show.

    Felt like a love letter to Tulsa. I can respect that. 
     

    One Dinklage episode was a bit of a letdown. It was by far the strongest episode. It’s a great show that everybody is talking about with Dinklage in 5-6 episodes. I think it’ll end up being a modest hit for FX. Dinklage should get nominated for an Emmy in the guest star category, and Hawke should get nominated for staring role. Especially if it’s in the limited series grouping. 
     

     

    I liked the Betty Jo karaoke at the very end. She's not a good person but also complex. 

    Spoiler

    If you watched Rez Dogs, then yes, Harjo does appear to have a knack for cheesy happy endings. The only part of the ending that felt a little off was the idea that Donald was really that far out of the loop and that the fact that he's actually Pearl's father is just left hanging out there as though it wouldn't become a major scandal at some point.

    Isn’t Stitt a Cherokee or Choctaw?

     

    surlin is an outlier in the Hollywood trade in that he’s not looking for endless sequels.  He ended Rez Dogs when he decided he had finished telling the story he wanted to tell.  Me as the consumer wanted to watch those kids grow up over the next ten years and get more insight into tribal society.  So in this case we don’t know if he’s one and done or looking to start shooting his next story with these characters.  

    Yes, he's a card carrying Cherokee. I've never bothered to research the truth but the allegation is that his ancestors were also white (or mostly white) and bought their way into the tribe. Plenty of white people also married into tribes and received allotments and were placed individually on the rolls of varoius tribes. He's nevertheless been at war with the tribes for most of his tenure which is fucking absurd. Markwayne Mullin is also a card carrying Cherokee. He's not as hostile but hasn't pushed back too much on Stitt. He's also the one who referred to the Trail of Tears as a "voluntary march." There is some history there he might have been referring to but his characterization is still insulting.

    Lol no it’s not it’s trans and Mexicans. He can do literally anything as long as he brings up trans and Mexicans. They only cared about Epstein as a way to call democrats pedophiles. He already said he’s exonerated and the files only have democrats and they believe him so they’ll totally be fine when blondie seals them and promises to bring down the liberal pedo ring with charges…in two weeks.

    CNN, MSNOW showing the Epstein victims speaking before House vote. Fox? Discussions on ICE and Trans. 

    I’m gonna keep saying it because I am unquestionably correct.

    It didn't really move the needle for the MAGA base.  It may have been just a tester from Trump to see what reaction the move might provoke, as he considers giving her a pardon.

    He literally said the words that he was considering a pardon and it did nothing.
