Politics: The Threat of Domestic Terrorists

Do not think for a moment that in today’s day and age that more secure borders are certain to keep out the terrorists. A lot of the terrible terrorists of this country are already here and have spent their whole lives in this country.

 

That’s why I’m talking about domestic terrorists. It is sad that many people refuse to admit that they exist or are a terrible problem. Some even think that it is wrong to call them out. Is it because of how white they are? You don’t want to admit that white people are a problem? Or you don’t want to admit that sometimes when it comes to admitting the problems that are currently within our country, that you have to look within at what’s already there.

 

Domestic terrorists have done more harm to our country in terms of causing people’s deaths than foreign terrorists have. One should condemn these people as they are just as likely to do terrible things like misuse religion to fit their own needs like ISIS would. We should fear those who would commit mass shootings against us or do vehicle ramming attacks. We can’t let people slide just because they aren’t from here. It even says so in the constitution. We need to defend our country from any threat, foreign or DOMESTIC.

Politics: Trump ISN’T Popular

You have probably heard tons of places the same sort of poll that never says the whole story. People love to point out the polls that show that Trump is popular among Republicans. It seems that anything and everything supports the belief that Trump is popular then, right? Wrong!

 

Trump is not, has not been, and never will be popular. You can’t say that of the only president in US history that had a negative approval ratings for his entire administration. People love to talk smack about Biden’s low approval ratings, but he had a positive one when he started out. When people try to claim that Trump is popular, it is only among the wrong. It is certainly not among liberals and it isn’t even among independents, the people that ultimately decide things.

 

So when you hear con servatives try to tell you that every controversy that the insurrectionist brings is helping him, know that people still hate him. It doesn’t matter if he gets money as it turns out that controversies in the Democratic Party, such as the censuring of Adam Schiff, also give them money, so it doesn’t matter as much since it affects both parties. That is what you should ultimately remember at all times. Trump isn’t popular, no matter what “right” winged or actual news sources tell you.

Politics: Stop Calling Them White Nationalists

The term is white supremacist, okay? I don’t know why the media keeps calling these people white nationalists instead of white supremacists. White nationalist sounds too nice and seems to misimply the patriotism these people feel that they have. They don’t represent this country in any way that we feel we would want others to think of this country. While it is one of many problems with this country that those people exist, I hate that they are called what seems like a nicer name that they don’t deserve. It’s like how people say Capitol attack instead of storming of the capitol. Those people should only be known as white supremacist.

Politics: No, Liberals aren’t Helping Trump

Why do people think that liberals are helping Trump? I just don’t see it. It seems that if people try to hold Trump accountable for his many crimes, people think that this helps him. You can look at all of the polling where it only has Republicans talking about Trump. But that is never going to tell you the whole story. Trump isn’t going to magically go away. And if we don’t try to hold him accountable, the fate of the world would suffer as a result. I don’t see how making sure that someone gets punished for their wrongdoing helps them.

Politics: Modern Day Confederates

It will forever be absurd that people will defend the belief that we need confederate statues or other things like that. But while it will never make sense to celebrate the people that rebelled against the country, this post is not about the confederates of the past, a post planned for later. This post is about the ones that exist nowadays.

 

Who are the modern day confederates? They are many. Mostly, they are those who stormed the capitol. Why would they be celebrated? They shouldn’t be. But we have a traitor who was killed while she committed insurrection and is treated as a martyr instead of a lesson. People who did this terrible thing are referred to as patriots by themselves and others.

 

Why are they loved by the wrong? There are various reasons. But you’d think that the party that loves to point out how they were on the correct side during the Civil War (and rarely, if ever, since) wouldn’t side with insurrectionists. But they shamelessly do.

Politics: Yes, Trump Can be Punished

I keep hearing this ridiculous thing from time to time. Apparently, people think that because nothing against Trump has stuck yet, he will never be punished. This is ludicrous. I mean, really? There has yet to be a criminal trial involving Trump that I’m familiar with. He faces federal charges, state charges from New York and Georgia. He could yet go to jail. And yet people think that nothing is ever going to happen to him? Please.

Politics: Race Baiting

While I have covered topics like this before, I might as well do a post on the fact that more and more, Republicans like to race bait. They talk about securing our borders when most of those who say that have no jurisdiction over the border whatsoever. You would have to live in the states of New Mexico, Texas, Arizonia, or California to have jurisdiction over the border. If you don’t, then you are simply race baiting. There are plenty of other ways that this happens as well. But I thought that I would make it clear in this blog post.

Cast Update 7-7-2023

Today is when the hiatus of this blog finally ends and I will return with updates of it every Friday for the near future until something changes outside of whatever unusual things might happen. I was suddenly sick last week so I couldn’t bring this blog back then. I have not yet written the post explaining why I was on hiatus. But since I never explained the first hiatus of this blog, then I might as well share that post first.

 

http://adamdeckercsicyber.blogspot.com/2023/01/tech-explaining-blogging-hiatus.html

 

Here’s a paragraph worth putting in multiple blogs. I’m going to share two of these that need sharing and this is the one that needs done first. You see, even though a lot of time has passed for me to potentially see movies and other things like that for these cast updates, I haven’t seen a lot of them just yet. I’m hoping to at some point, but am unsure how or when I’ll have the time. It will hopefully happen at some point in time so bear with me as you might be glad just to have posts back at all, even though projects still haven’t been watched.

 

Tea Leoni: She will be in a project called Endangered, which will be a movie. There are no other things that I see her in right now besides that. I don’t know when they finished filming the show, but you’d think that those who are still doing projects will have stuff right now to do (if that makes sense).

 

Endangered: This is a movie about the lives of threatened species. We’ll see what role she has in it. The website I’m checking makes it seem like she’ll be lending her voice to it so maybe it will be some sort of documentary. The release date is unknown now.

 

Bebe Neuwirth: She’s had a recurring bit on Blue Bloods and may show up on it from time to time. There are other minor things that she has done. It appears that she will be in a new movie called Julia. She will also be in something new called Teenage Euthanasia. I hope to see what I can of this. Two more things that she is in are Frasier: Revival and Captian Fall. It is nice to see her doing things.

 

Julia: This is a show about Julia Child, the chef. It is available now on HBO Max. It first became available on 3-31-2022. There is a trailer for this that I will talk about. I might not care about missing the show even if I’m coming to like some cooking shows.

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZBacZqwbCA

 

Thoughts on trailer: This looks way more interesting than I ever would have thought that it might be. Who would have thought that a woman would need to overcome cooking stereotypes? It seems like there is a lot more going on here than might need to be, but there isn’t much else to say about this. I doubt that I’ll be able to see it without borrowing this from my sister’s family for a moment, but it could be fine regardless of it I wind up seeing it in the future or not.

 

Teenage Euthanasia: Considering how the title talks about assisted suicide, one can be a bit unsure how this could turn into a good story. But the plot is more complicated than that and hard to sum up easily. The show is out now. There is a trailer for this:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6T8HAs-5oX4

 

Thoughts on trailer: So this looks strange, but I was already expecting it. I guess that it is far too grim for even FOX by featuring mature content that not even that network would allow. I’m glad that the trailer explains a lot about the series, but I’m not upset that I’m going to be missing any of this in the end.

 

Frasier: Revival: This is best described as a revival of the show Frasier which I never saw for no good reason (lack of interest, I guess?). It is set to air in 2023. I don’t know what else there is to say about it yet and am unsure how or if I’ll see the original.

 

Captian Fall: This is set to start airing on July 28, 2023. It will be a Netflix show. While there is a trailer for it, I don’t have time to talk about it in this month’s cast update. I hope to next month. It is about a person who becames unwittingly part of a cartel and will be the fall guy in case something goes wrong.

 

Geoffrey Arend: He will be in a project called Physical, a TV show. I’m glad that he could find something at long last. Hopefully, he’ll do a bunch more things all worth keeping track of in this blog and worth watching as well if I can see them at all.

 

Physical: This is a TV show, but too much about this is unknown at this point in time. It is out now on Apple TV. It also has a trailer that I will be talking some about. It is a very new thing and imdb isn’t revealing much about it now as a result. But we’ll find out more about this over time.

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQTFdslwJYo

 

Thoughts on trailer: I’m not entirely sure what to make of this. It doesn’t seem that bad, but it doesn’t seem anywhere close to good either. It is going for something maybe a bit different, but I can’t really get behind it that much. I was never one for the 80s as I wasn't even born yet and really only get stuff out of it from when I see The Goldbergs. It doesn’t seem all that interesting to me really.

 

Kathrine Herzer: She hasn’t been doing much since the show ended or now, it seems. Maybe she is going back to a more normal life. Not all the child actors or actresses continue into the field when they get older as they want to do other things in life. Remember the people from Shining Time Station?

 

Evan Roe: Again, this person has not been doing much after the show ended. I guess it hasn’t been over long enough or a lot of these people just haven’t found a new job yet, at least in the Hollywood industry. You’d think that the filming would have ended long enough ago, but maybe not. While he is mentioned as in the cast for A Man in Full, which also stars Jon Michael Hill from my Elementary blog and William Jackson Harper from my CSI: Cyber blog, all three of those people are mentioned as only appearing in one episode thus far.

 

A Man in Full: There is no release date or trailer for this yet. It is about a mogul who has to defend his failing empire from those seeking to gain from his failure. This is set to be a miniseries. I’ll find out where later. It could be good, but the plot seems overused.

 

Tim Daly: The time has come to say what this man is finally doing after Madam Secretary as he finally has something new in the works now. He is set to be in The Game, a TV show. He is also now in Finestkind. That’s it for now.

 

The Game: This is a TV series about black culture and how it regards to football. It could be good and is a continuation of CW show from a while ago that also aired on BET. This is available now on Paramount+. I am not currently planning on watching it.

 

Finestkind: I’m guessing that this is a movie or supposed to be. It has a release time frame of September of 2023. It is about two brothers finding themselves trapped in issues with organized crime people. There is no trailer yet.

 

Zeljko Ivanek: He is finally set to be in something called Now and Then, which is a TV show. Maybe we’ll see more of his acting in the future or maybe we won’t. Another thing that he will be in is Let the Right One in. He’s also in The Walking Dead: Dead City.

 

Now and Then: This is a TV series about a group of Hispanic friends meeting again years after one of them is found dead. It is available now. It is on Apple TV+. It could be good, but it doesn’t sound original. There is a trailer for this now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfyk7tbtTN4

 

Thoughts on trailer: Well, this looks like it could be interesting and also complicated in different ways. It seems to focus too much on clichés, although I couldn’t guess who might be guilty in the end of anything (it might be all of them). I don’t think that I’ll miss much by not being able to see it, even if some of this could be good.

 

Let the Right One in: This doesn’t have a trailer yet. This is out now. This is a vampire drama that I believe is based on an existing movie that was also already remade into a movie before, albeit much earlier and too soon after the old one was just out from what I understand of it. Here’s another one. There is a trailer for this now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_abIA--OY3Y

 

Thoughts on trailer: Well, I’m fine without this. While there have been a few horror movies that I have liked to an extent, this doesn’t look like one of them, although it is a TV show and not a movie. But that’s not the point exactly. It seems obvious and dumb so I’ll be better off without it.

 

The Walking Dead: Dead City: This is a continuation of The Walking Dead focusing on the character of Negan. I’m going to include some overlap with my blogs on Madam Secretary and The Good Wife as they both have actors in this show. It is currently available.

 

Erich Bergen: He’s also not doing much yet as of the show ending. After appearing in some episodes of the final season of Bull, I’ll have to wait to see what else he is up to in the future after this. I can only hope that he does more in the future.

 

Patina Miller: She is the narrator of a show called Word Party. That’s all that she’s doing for now. I think that she’s a mother so that may affect how much work she’ll be able to do. We’ll see what goes on in her life and I hope she can do something I can watch. She’s also set to be in the upcoming project of Into the Woods. That’s about it.

 

Word Party: This is a Netflix kids show that is available now. Patina is the narrator of it. I don’t know much about it. I doubt that I will be able to see it in the future. This show is about teaching others how to talk and learning simple things like that.

 

Into the Woods: This has no plot yet. What I’m unsure of is if this is a remake of the movie Into the Woods or, perhaps, a live musical version of this. It would seem kind of early in my mind to remake the movie. Anyways, it has no release date or trailer yet.

 

Wallis Currie-Wood: She has done very little outside of the show. Maybe she will do something more in Hollywood or maybe not. It will be hard to understand some of why I’m not seeing much in terms of what the cast is doing in the future unless or until more time passes.

 

Keith Carradine: He has two projects in the works. One is called Sallywood. The other one is called The Daylong Brothers. We’ll see what happens between those and anything else that he does. I look forward to hopefully seeing these films at some point in time. Maybe more will happen in the future. He’s also in the new season of Fear the Walking Dead. He is in is the TV show Accused. Two more things that he is in are They Listen and Rabbit Ears: Annie Oakley.

 

Sallywood: This movie romantic in some way, but I don’t know if it’s a comedy or not. It is about a man who moves to Hollywood and becomes a woman’s personal assistant. There will be more to it than that. It has an unknown release date at this time.

 

The Daylong Brothers: This has an unknown release date at this time. It is about three brothers who try to get revenge on their father for selling their souls. This could be interesting, even if I don’t really like to watch horror films. But this could just be normal supernatural.

 

Fear the Walking Dead: This is an AMC show that is a spin-off of the original Walking Dead. At first, it was a prequel set at the start of the zombie outbreak. Now, it is set sometime later during the same time frame as the original. I don’t know when or if I’ll be able to see this, but will include this in the updates for as long as Keith is in it.

 

Accused: I can’t quite tell what this is about, although I hope to have more explained in the future. It is a FOX show that is on hiatus. I don’t know how much there is to mention in something like this since a lot has changed about it in the present by now.

 

Review: Accused: Show Description- If I understand the premise of this correctly, we see the story of someone on trial, the events leading up to it, and what the end result is. Behind the Scenes- This seems to be an anthology show and I have no idea if this even has the same cast from episode to episode. It might at some point star Keith Carradine from Madam Secretary. My Thoughts- This show is all kinds of terrible in many ways. It doesn’t spend enough time in the courtroom, which is not a problem on its own, but seeks to take away why we are there in the end. It also seems to support the idea of vigilante justice instead of, you know, calling the police to make sure that a crime does not happen. I give it one out of five stars. Long Term Prospects- It was renewed for a second season. Where to Find- Currently on hiatus

 

They Listen: This is currently set for release in 2024. It is unknown what plot is has right now to the general public as that is being kept under wrap. We’ll see how soon they will reveal information about it.

 

Rabbit Ears: Annie Oakley: This is based on the true story of this woman. It seems to be animated, I guess. It is a short and for the family. It has an unknown release date at this point in time.

 

Sebastian Arcelus: He is set to be in the movie Into the Woods. That’s all that I can see for him at this point in time. But I’m going to talk about something. I want to say whatever dumb things I feel that I have to in order to make these paragraphs a certain length after all.

 

Into the Woods: This has no plot yet. What I’m unsure of is if this is a remake of the movie Into the Woods or, perhaps, a live musical version of this. It would seem kind of early in my mind to remake the movie. Anyways, it has no release date or trailer yet.

 

Sara Ramirez: We’ll see what else she might do in the future. It could be a lot or not much at all. One source is now saying that her show, And Just Like That, is returning for a season 2 after all. Other than that role, I don’t see anything mentioned of hers for now.

 

Kevin Rahm: There isn’t much to talk about for him right now. Maybe I’ll see more of him in the future or maybe not. It is hard to tell for sure what all might be covered in these blogs of mine or what all what stay there whether it is outdated or not.

 

Barbara Hall: I will see what future, if any, she might have in the TV or movie industry. You’d think that she’d be doing something at some point or another, but maybe she won’t be at least for a while. I guess that I’ll keep her in the updates since only death would get rid of someone.
