Friday Stuff

Rachel Maddow tells us, along with Matt Zapotosky of the WaPo, about at least one intriguing staffer hired by Special Counsel Robert Mueller, along with the fact that the spotlight on Jared Kushner is getting bigger (Money laundering? Fraud? Other potential financial crimes? So much winning!)…

(Oh, and is it my imagination, but does Ivana Trump have some kind of a ‘60s Fellini-model thing going on with those shades? Just wondering…)…



…and with the first son-in-law in mind, I bring you the following from Bill Maher (NSFW - GREAT finish!)…



…and I guess the lesson here is that, if you’re pregnant in this country or know someone who is, live anywhere else except Texas (I’d like to tell them what they can do with that yellow rose)…


…and apparently based on this (probably as a distraction from the Russia stuff as opposed to just about any other reason), it looks like our AG, “Immunity Gnome” Jeff Sessions, is trying to declare “war on weed,” which I’m sure will eventually end up making the drug more plentiful somehow (that’s the way it usually goes)…


...and here’s an interesting bit of science I came across on plastic-eating worms who could save us all (CNN's Kristie Lu Stout talks to beekeeper/scientist Federica Bertocchini)……



…and apparently, PA’s own mistake of a U.S. House Rep Lou Barletta is all sooo scared to have a town hall now (here)…didn’t feel that way in 2010 when the Teahadists were all in people’s faces – oh, but that’s because they were carrying the proverbial water for Barletta and his party…I think this reminder from a few years ago should be provided as a response…



…and Lawrence O’Donnell did a good job here IMHO of putting together the recent mass shootings in this country (and yes, there were 2, let’s not forget, instead of just the one in Alexandria, VA which was horrific enough) – oh, and by the way



...and happy upcoming 75th birthday to Sir Paul!
