As usual, this will be a very
long blog post full of a whole lot of details that you may or may not deem
important in any way, shape, or form. I do wonder if some people come here for
reasons other than the show that I blog about. I talk about politics, sports,
and various other things in this blog of mine. You may not care at all about
Madam Secretary. I’ll find out more this summer when I do the political posts.
Know that as usual, I’ll write in all caps when the important part begins.
Well, by the time you are
reading this, Eric Greitens will have resigned from being governor of Missouri
and Republican Mike Parson will now be the governor. I’m only pointing out the
party because in the state of Missouri, the governor and lieutenant governor
are elected on separate ballots meaning that there can be a governor of one
party with the lieutenant governor being of another party. I don’t know what
happens to the office of lieutenant governor if it becomes vacant. Perhaps
there would be no one in that office until the next election. But who else
would be in line of succession? Or would there instead be a special election to
fill the vacancy? I guess that we’ll see in the future.
I’m not sure if I like the new
national anthem policy for the NFL, but I know that they are just doing what
they need to in order to get good ratings for their programs. Honestly, I’d be
okay without the NFL being shown on all these networks where they frequently
mess up TV for me. I’d have to do more research into what exactly Colin was doing
before he was taking a knee. He might have just remained sitting. This new
policy seems to be doing what he originally was doing in the first place. Of
course, I still don’t know what they would do if a bunch of star athletes were
to kneel at the anthem. Would they really fire all of them? It seems dumb that
people are so offended by the thing.
Donald Trump wants to pardon
Rod Blagojevich. That is a terrible idea. Rod deserves his jail time. And I’m
not sure if people understand fully what all Rod did. It wasn’t just that he
tried to sell a senate seat. He did way more than that. Indeed, the
investigation into him went as far back at 2006, long before Obama was even
running for president.
I think that Rod is now
disbarred as a lawyer and he can’t run for a statewide office in Illinois
again. Sadly, he can still run for federal office, although I’m not sure how a
pardon could change things. Still, if he ran in the bluest district in
Illinois, he’d lose spectacularly to any Republican who challenged him. And
that’s provided he wins the primary. Still, I don’t know if he’d run in
Colorado since that is where he is in jail. I do worry for that state. If they
legalized pot, they may do more dumb things like voting for him if he ran for
office there.
It
was on Friday, June 08, 2018 that I finally rolled Survivor: Borneo for the
first time and watched the first episode of the season entitled The Marooning.
I am telling you about this in a different font for reasons that are a bit OCD
of mine. As long as it remains on the list, you’ll get updates like this. I
wonder what Brick Hecht would think of this font. It is Calligraph421 BT. The
number for this choice is 5 at the moment.
It seems that every time you
think Trump can’t do anything worse than he already has, then he does something
worse. Remember when people with preexisting conditions weren’t allowed to get
health care coverage because of it? Well, Trump wants to get rid of that
coverage. And he doesn’t want to do it until after the midterm elections. This may
just be a ploy to hope that people will keep Republican’ts in power to ensure
that he doesn’t do anything. Still, the audacity of this man is unnerving.
Getting to the list of shows
that I watch from, know that NCIS season one is done and is replaced by the
second season of NCIS. That’s not much of a change, but I should get to more in
the future if and when they hopefully happen. It can be hard to stay caught up.
Now you might be wondering
since you are always hearing, even now, about Hilary Clinton’s emails that are
missing. Then there are ironic parts such as Trump having missing emails. But
what could be even more ironic than that? Remember how James Comey was
investigating the email scandal? Well, what if he had misused his own emails?
Well, he does. He broke the same rules, using personal emails for the
government business he was doing. Hilary’s reaction to this news, “but my
emails,” was how she has now won twitter forever.
If and when I can do all of
the research that I want to do for missing emails of people who aren’t Hilary
Clinton, I will do a special political post about it so that you can be
informed. And I will have all of the links that back up the information that I
have. Google Romney missing emails if you want to find out more information
about just one of them.
Something that worries me
excessively is the power of judges in this country. You might know more of the
story if you know what the word bork means. You may remember how the
Republican’ts refused to do confirmation hearings on Merrick Garland. But,
sadly, he was hardly alone in terms of being a judge appointed by Obama that
was never seated. There were all these vacancies occurring during the Obama
administration that were not filled during his tenor that should have been.
Ultimately, Trump wound up filling these vacancies with different judges that
are largely conservative in their leanings. There are a lot of them that he put
on various courts throughout the country. And Republican’ts actually think this
is his accomplishment alone when they had blocked the judges that should have
been confirmed already before he took office. It’s highly ironic that there is
all this unfairness going on with judges. All we can hope is that they can
still be impartial despite their life tenor and political ideology.
This leads into something
quite terrible: the only true moderate that was still on the Supreme Court,
Anthony Kennedy, has now retired from it. He did this at the goading of Trump.
This should be illegal since he shouldn’t be coaxed into retiring by someone
under investigation. And to dump a whole ton of salt into the world, he didn’t
leave the court until after he gave conservatives victories such as allowing
voter suppression to happen in Ohio. Anthony is now dead to me, in a way. I’ll
get to more of the issues with the vacancy and who was appointed later.
Something that we should worry
about in the future is that the Russians might try to interfere in the 2018
midterm elections. In fact, there is already evidence that they have tried to
do this already. I might talk more about this later in this post or other posts
including special posts that you may have already seen before the season
premiere. But I did find a video of The Russian Dancing Men which I’m sharing
now as a reminder of what could happen or is already happening with that
country and what should be our way of voting that they shouldn’t be messing
with.
With all of Trump’s negative
treatment of the media, news, press, and whatever else you would call it, you
might wonder what it would take for him to say something good about
journalists. Well, there was a shooting at a newspaper called The Capital which
left people dead. Trump talked about what a horrible thing it was for them to
be shot. While he could have remained silent on the case, I still think that it
was really bad that this is what it took for him to say something good about
journalists. It was also a fleeting effort since he went right back to
attacking them later.
Ever since Trump came up with
a terrible idea to pardon Rod Blagojevich (something he, thankfully, has not
yet done and hopefully never will), it made me think some about where he is
now, specifically, the state where he is serving his jail sentence. That state
is Colorado. That makes me wonder or even worry about that state once he gets
out of jail with established residency. You would think that they should be
like Illinois where convicted felons are not allowed to hold statewide office
(but, sadly, not any federal office), which would probably be a moot point if
he were pardoned.
The point is, I might wind up
caring more about Colorado and certain elections with it. In case I do, what
are the important elections in Colorado? They have elections for governor in
midterms and elections for senators are class 2 and class 3.
It used to be that after a
heated political discussion of some sort, I would update my sort of blog at the
website at Barack Obama.com (which I know is not a validly typed link).This is
no longer the case since I think that they got rid of whatever I had written
there. But sometimes they have me thinking and I think that I should post
anything about what’s going on in the world according to the crazies or others
that I often talk to. You see, there is a Pocahontas slur going around
regarding Senator Elizabeth Warren. I do not know why people think it is okay
to call her that. And why do they do it? There is no proof that she does not
have Native American heritage and I don’t understand why it’s such a big deal.
This makes me hope that any write-in ballots for Pocahontas are counted towards
her.
I have been told something and
now wonder: do I assume the worst? I’m not even sure what it means when people
said that might apply to me. If I have assumed the worst, you would find it
seen better in this blog than any other one. Have I done that? What do you
think people would mean by thinking that about me? And haven’t I only thought
bad things about people who are bad?
Regarding more of the
conversations that I have with the people I might call crazies in some way, one
has to wonder why they have three Democrats listed as the three stooges. Maxine
Waters is one of them, although I don’t know who that is or why people care.
But I thought that I could think of some Republican versions of the three
stooges. They are currently Trump, Rudy Giuliani, and Mitch McConnell with
people subject to change. I had thought of who to put in the middle section for
a while, but I think that he fits most for now.
Can abortion be overturned? We
hear about this from both sides of the aisle as they both want you to believe
that it can happen. What they don’t seem to realize or will admit is that it
can’t actually just be thrown out. It is here to stay. The pro-choice people
seem to not realize this and neither do the pro-life people. I would love for
it to be overturned, but that ain’t happening.
Some pundits may think that
the investigations into Trump might be lasting too long. But many people don’t
seem to realize that a lot of long investigations into presidents have
happened. Some have been much longer than the one that Robert Mueller is
currently doing. Whitewater, a scandal that happened during the Clinton
administration, lasted much longer than the Russia investigation.
If I’ve ever mentioned who I
thought was the worst Democratic incumbent in the country, it would be the
Illinois speaker of house named Mike Madigan. There are many ads against him in
this election, even though I don’t live in his district. Why waste money like
that? But I do know that there are now rumors of sexual harassment by him.
Only, they are just that, rumors. I haven’t found any links that prove that
anyone ever claimed to be sexually harassed by him. I don’t like him and never
will. But this seems even more unlikely than someone making up accusations
because people are now making up that people made up allegations about him.
While it could have happened with some people that he knew or people that
worked for him, it seems unlikely in my mind that it’s the case.
There was a Tennessee ad
airing multiple times in Illinois. My TV only covers two counties in that
state. Why would they spend money on putting ads here? Plus, a Trump
endorsement means to me that I shouldn’t vote for him. I don’t know what all happened
and if Randy Boyd or whoever it was won the primary for governor in that state.
I just know that I only saw positive ads for him and they weren’t what I would
want to see to vote for someone like him.
Now it wouldn’t be a largely
political blog of mine with minor mentions of a TV show called Madam Secretary
without me mentioning Brett Kavanaugh and mentioning various links about him.
I’ll get to the allegations against him later in the post. First, let’s talk
about how he once supported the Clinton impeachment because Republicans still
have to make them relevant.
While there are various
connections he has or could have on the Supreme Court, one of the ones we
should worry about most is the one where he spent time being classmates with
current justice Neil Gorsuch or Trump’s other nominee to the Supreme Court. I
wonder just how many people could have a link to Neil Gorsuch that Trump wants
to put on the court.
What’s interesting about Brett
is that he has had a history with the Supreme Court before. He once had argued
a case before the Supreme Court, also during the Clinton era in a case against
him. He ended up losing the case 6-3. I don’t know who decided this case that
is still on the court.
Perhaps the article that he is
most well known for writing is one where he wrote all sorts of things that he
is now criticized for. He thinks that current presidents should be protected
from being prosecuted. This is a hypocritical position to have since he argued
in favor of Bill Clinton’s impeachment. All we can think of as why this isn’t a
bad thing to have someone like this on the court is that there are eight other
justices who can overrule his opinions. That’s provided, of course, that
there’s enough people on the court throughout a tenure that he hopefully
doesn’t get.
There might be a good thing
about him. Then again, it might just be more of a reason why Republican’ts
fucked up in the past. Brett served on the same circuit as Merrick Garland. And
they voted together a lot of the time. How much? 93%. This makes me wonder just
how different the 7% is. It is possible that the borking of Merrick Garland
didn’t prevent a moderate from being on the court. It could have prevented a
conservative judge from being on the court. These conservative victories that
happened in 2018 could have still happened with Merrick Garland on the court.
Other links that I found to
other people and Brett is a connection to Elena Kagan, a justice that Obama put
on the Supreme Court. He would sub as a professor for her. A connection to a
liberal justice might be a good thing in some cases. He also has a connection
to Anthony Kennedy, having once served as a clerk under him. Now I’m going to
talk about other things before getting back to him.
В выпуске «Добрый сын»
времени, который был опубликован 12 июня 2017 года, он рассказывает о Джареде
Кушнере и его роли в российском расследовании. Статья начинается на странице
24. Джаред хотел начать общение с Россией частным образом. Со всеми проблемами,
с которыми столкнулся отец Джареда Чарльз, можно подумать, что Джаред умнее не
попасть в ту же ловушку. Существует также немного юмористическое, где
упоминается, что их адрес был 666 Пятой авеню. Но важная часть того, как
микротрассирование некоторых людей происходило как российскими оперативниками,
так и людьми в кампании Трампа. Но вопрос все еще остается: они работали
вместе?
I honestly forget or don’t
know who the old sponsor of the NFL was in terms of pizza chains. I think that
it was Papa Johns, but they bowed out. What I do know is that as of this year, Pizza
Hut is sponsoring the NFL. I’m glad for this and didn’t need another reason to
like Pizza Hut. It’s my favorite of all of the pizza places that I go to or
have had.
It
was on Sunday, July 29, 2018 that I rolled number 5 again and got to watch the
second episode of the first season of Survivor called The Generation Gap. This
affects my TV blog is that it is now on Sundays instead of Saturdays for the
near future and it means that the cheats that I use sometimes to update a blog
will remain in my TV blog and not move back to this one.
This is the first blog that I
created because I had dreamt about it. It had happened under rules that I do
not think could happen again. But I had also once dreamt about having a blog
about Bob’s Burgers. How would a blog like that start? Well, there are
different ways it could happen now in the future. I do not know just how long
this blog will be sharing Mondays with other blogs. But if it shares one with
more than just my TV blog, it could join the rotation of what could be blogged
about. It can also be updated should a planned new episode of this show not air
due to sports delays. I do not know what will happen yet, but I will share a
link to any new blog that I create in the future.
I had a dream about Scott
Walker where he was accused of sexual misconduct in some way. I hope that it
doesn’t happen in reality unless such a terrible thing actually happened. But
it does make you wonder if there is a potential curse that could happen. We saw
Eric Grietens resign and not even after the whole sexual problems that might have
happened. If something does happen with Scott Walker, one can only assume that
there will be problems with Eric Holcomb later and, hopefully, Bruce Rauner.
The thought of a 3D printed
gun including blue prints for it were actually brought up in a sixth season
episode of The Good Wife. I wrote about it in a blog post, the link of which
I’ll post here. I didn’t do that good of a recap and I also know that they
didn’t do as good an episode of it that they could. All I can hope is that The
Good Fight does a better episode about it in the future.
Last football season, I had
talked about the various teams in football that I root for and the teams that
were tied with other teams. Now that I have finally looked back at the next
game that these people had played, I can break these ties. The Titans and Chiefs
were tied for third and fourth. The Chiefs will win this tie making them third
and the Titans fourth. As for the fifth and sixth tie between the Colts and the
Broncos, it is the Broncos that win and become team five.
It
was on Monday, August 13, 2018 that I rolled the number 5 again and got to
watch the third episode of the first season of Survivor called Quest for Food.
This affects my TV blog again and will now have to be updated every Monday and
Sunday until Sundays can be phased out at the end of the month. We’ll see if
anything else changes if I roll an option on either Sunday or Monday and I will
not be able to update that blog as a result.
While it might be mean to
refer to some people as crazies, sometimes there is no better way of saying it
than that. ISIS is not defeated and people think that it is and that Trump
caused it to happen. There is no evidence that Trump, or anyone else for that
matter, defeated ISIS. If you ever hear about them in the news, then you know
that they would not be taking credit for bad things if they didn’t exist
anymore. Does that make sense? Why would the news I watch keep telling me that ISIS is claiming credit for bad things that happen in the world if they truly are defeated?
Charmed season 3 is done and I
replaced it with the fourth season of that show. This shouldn’t be a thing that
I have to point out, but I’m watching the original Charmed as the new Charmed
will be on in the near future on the CW.
It
was on Monday, August 27, 2018 that I rolled the number 5 again and got to
watch the fourth episode of the first season of Survivor called Too Little Too
Late? This actually messed up a lot of what I would have otherwise been doing
in other blogs of mine. Since my TV blog was on Mondays with updates, this now
means that I’ll have to update a different blog then. That blog happens to be
this blog as you should know by now. This will confuse things as you might
expect. I will explain more into that in other posts. Sorry if this doesn’t
make a lot of sense.
I should do a quick update
into Rams versus Chargers season, where I talk about which of the two teams is
doing better. I’ll try to do it at least once a post if I can and have time to
do the research. Know that I will not be able to be as up to date as I’d like
to be sometime and this post will only contain information into week three of
the regular season. The teams were tied in the preseason with two wins and two
loses. The Rams have three wins in the regular season while the Chargers just
have one. And while they played each other in the preseason last year with the
opposite results, the Rams won their game against the Chargers in the head to head
match-up this year.
Another change in the list is
that mystery choice #3 is now mystery choice #4. As usual, you will have to
read my Good Wife blog to know what the change is. There was yet another change
when I finished with the recorded shows on tape and replaced it by Invader Zim.
This means that Survivor is now number 6 on the list of things to watch.
When it comes to the governors
that I care about, I should mention when they started their terms in office. Bruce
Rauner of Illinois started on January 12, 2015. Mike Parsons of Missouri
started on June 1, 2018. Matt Bevin of Kentucky started on December 8, 2015.
Eric Holcomb of Indiana started on January 9, 2017. Kim Reynolds of Iowa
started on May 24, 2017. Scott Walker of Wisconsin started on January 3, 2011.
Eric Grietens, should he have been on this list still, had started on January
9, 2017.
While I posted a poll on my
twitter handle a while ago about which of the three states with elections for
senate I should do a special post on, I knew that I did this knowing that I
might not get to any of these posts in the future. If you read my Elementary
blog after the primaries in Missouri, Indiana, and Iowa, you would have seen
spoiler segments that were actually about the elections there that I cared
about. But it does make you wonder which of the elections in the post I should
cover. There are pros and cons to each of them.
Just to be clear, I’m talking
about the senate elections in Missouri, Indiana, and Wisconsin. The pros of
doing one for Missouri is that I live close to it so I would know more about
what is going on, it seems like the next one in line to do anyways, and focuses
on issues that I really care about. The cons are that I do not need to do
anything special in Missouri since I can’t have a beef with a governor who is
no longer in office like I do with Eric Holcomb and Scott Walker, leaving me
with no reason to keep that spot open in this blog and it might just be better
to do a simple post in a normal post anyways.
The pros of doing a special
post for Wisconsin are that it would make sense to do it next having just done
one for the governor race there and my extra interest in Wisconsin this year.
The cons are that it does not seem like I should do it next and my interest in
Wisconsin this year doesn’t relate to senate race as much as it does to the
governor race. The pros of doing one of Indiana is that I’ll want to do a post
for that state on their governor race two years from now, it could prove to be
a more pivotal race than others, and I want to keep track of races from this
state for relatives of mine. The cons are that I don’t have to get caught up on
that for a while and I might be okay with either candidate winning. I will look
at the poll results, but might not even have the opportunity or need to do any
of them and may just have to wait for what happens starting in the next post.
By now, you probably know
about the anonymous op-ed about the formerly secret resistance inside the Trump
administration. I found this article so I thought that I would share it here in
case you want to read for yourself all about the story in question.
I have more thoughts on Brett
Kavanaugh now that it is later in the process and we know more about him than
we were wanting to. I saw on the PBS Newshour that 54% of Republicans who think
that if the allegations are true about him, he should still be confirmed to the
Supreme Court. Many are offering defense of him with some going as far as
saying every man tried to take advantage of women in high school and we should
all be okay with it. But the main article about the first person who accused
him is mentioned here. Sexual assault is very serious so here’s a story about
it.
Something that’s important to
keep track of is John McCain’s senate seat. I don’t know enough about special
elections. What I do know is that his vacancy was before the 2018 elections, he
is a class three senator, meaning that his seat isn’t up for its regular
election until 2022, and the special election won’t be until 2020. I’m not sure
that I like that it is delayed. I wish that it could take place sometime in
2019 as a regular election then. We’ll see if this seat not being brought into
play affects the election or not. But I have the feeling that the Republican
reaction to Brett Kavanaugh could spark backlash to that party in the upcoming
midterms. Look at the polls if you don't believe me.
A facebook friend of mine
whose an extended family member of mine has started posting many political
limericks on a regular basis. I’m going to start doing it in this blog, unless
I hear objections to it. I wonder if I can come up with enough in every regular
post. Sorry if the scheme regarding the length of each line does not fit
properly. Let’s come up with something now.
There once was a man named
Brett
Whose life might have become a
wreck
Arguments could be feckless
But a confirmation would be
reckless
A rejection would be the best bet
Trump just can’t handle how he
failed with the natural disaster of Hurricane Maria. His response then and now
is quite terrible. He’s lucky that people in that place can’t vote. But they
can move to a state where they can. He’s questioning the numbers of deaths that
happened as if it can’t be real. He likes to question facts and his pathetic
supporters buy it up like they always do.
If you read or read (those are
two different words, just pronounce them differently) my Elementary blog, you
would know that I would keep up all the movie updates of what is on a list of
stuff that I watch and I will put the updates in this blog until that show
returns. Let’s get to the two lists that I started with and I’ll explain more
as I go along.
Saturday movies are Absolute
Power, Finding Nemo, grade school graduation DVD, I am Sam, The Return of
Jafar, and Titanic. Sunday movies are Back to the Future part 3, Celtic Woman:
A New Journey, home videos, Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark), The Lord
of the Rings: The Return of the King, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
There was a Trump story about
an affair of his that the National Enquirer wanted to run, but he did all that
he could to stop the story from running. Here’s the thing that made his efforts
pointless: that isn’t a real news organization and you’d think that someone
against fake news would know that. It possible that the National Enquirer has
made lies more than Trump has, which is saying something. Very little of their
stories are actually true so that if the story had run, no one would have
believed it due to the very unreliable source running the story. And the
kicker? The story is actually true this time.
Hurricane Florence had hit
North Carolina, among other areas, which made me wonder if there would be an
effect on the Carolina Panthers, but they will be able to play where they
normally want to unlike the Saints back in 2005. I don’t know if any sports
team has had a long term time away from home other than the New Orleans
basketball team. What I do know if that the Panthers are now my 15th
favorite team in football and may be used to break any ties between the
hurricane teams from last season which are numbers 10-13. Since California has
droughts and wildfires, it’s a shame that hurricanes don’t hit the west coast
and give them much needed rain.
Before I continue with the
movie updates, I should inform you that I have done some movie watching outside
of the main lists. Not all of the watching was or got to be completed. Thus, I
will be adding some part of an incomplete series to the list at certain points
randomly.
Now as for the changes in the
lists, I am Sam is now Minions and Back to the Future part 3 is now The Bourne
Legacy. I was waiting until there was a change on the Sunday list and something
was taken off with something not part of a series. Thus, as I will be getting
to shortly, there is now a Friday list.
Switching back to my TV
watching list, Farscape season 3 is now Moonlight: the complete series. What
makes this addition to the list interesting is that I have a YouTube channel
now and I will be reviewing that show on that channel on various Fridays and
other, potential videos will come later.
What is the Friday list of
movies? They are Courageous, Enchanted, Fireproof, Jason Bourne, Monsters Inc,
and Rain Man. What’s interesting is that Courageous probably shouldn’t be on
this list and normally is not on any list. I often watch it on Father’s Day
given its theme. This is only the second time that I have put it on the list
due to being busy on Father’s Day and not having time to watch it as a result.
If you thought that worrying
about just the Russians trying to attack us was bad, it seems like we might
also have to worry about Chinese election hacks in the future. Of course, this
is one of many things that Trump has said without any evidence to back it up.
So we might not have anything to worry about from that front. I’ll see if any
news source says that it is a real threat or not.
Regarding that poll on twitter
that I did about which of the three senate elections I should do a post on, the
results were inclusive as no one voted in it. Worse, if you google my name and
twitter, my account does not show up on the first page of results (although it
was on the second). I’ve decided not to do a poll on a different format and
will just decide what to do and might not even have to worry about doing
another special post about it until after the election anyways.
If there’s any good that the
nightmare of Brett Kavanaugh brings to people, it’s that those in the satire
business know how to address things. If you saw the live hearings, then you
will know how accurate this sketch is. Also, I know from How I Met Your Mother
that the devil’s triangle refers to a three-way with two men and one woman. His
accuser mentions that another man was there when the attempted rape against her
happened. But if you need a good laugh out of all of this mess, watch this
video and I hope that you can enjoy it. I hope that Bad Lip Reading does something about it.
Going back to changes on the movie list, Rain Man is now Rush Hour 2 and The Return of Jafar is now Power Rangers:
Lightspeed Rescue VHS of the first three episodes of the season edited together
in a movie like format, hence the reason I watch it as a movie. I was not able
to watch a movie on Sunday.
It
was on Tuesday, October 2, 2018 that I rolled the number 6 and got to watch the
Survivor: Borneo episode Pulling Your Own Weight. This is the fifth episode of
the season. There’s not much else to say other than that it could take me a
long time to watch this all.
There were problems with the
website of Ben Sasse when I went to send him an email. I like to send him more
emails than I might others because he put me on a list I never signed up for
and now get his emails that I wasn’t interested. They added a layer to make
sure that bots don’t get through. You might have seen this type of thing on
other websites. There’s this weird looking thing in the picture where you have
to find the numbers in it and if you’re a bot, then you wouldn’t be able to
make sense of it.
What could the problem be
then? Well, the picture never loaded when I went there to send him an email.
When I refreshed the page, it still wouldn’t load and only that stupid icon was
there. This means that I couldn’t send him an email and neither could anyone
else. This better have been a mistake or glitch. The fact that this would
happen at all is shady enough. It is very suspicious that this happened around
the time of a highly controversial nominee to the Supreme Court. But I guess
that I wouldn’t be able to contact him (via email at least) to tell him about
the problem.
Lindsey Graham has many,
terrible partisan issues that I’m not sure that he understands. I think that he
is now worthy of the bottom 10 that I have. I might mention this in a later
post. The bottom 10 is the list of who I think are the 10 worst politicians who
are incumbent office holders. It does not have to have 10 people, but that is
the maximum that I put on there.
Why is Lindsey such a terrible
person? Well, if you haven’t seen video of his hyper partisan way of saying his
support of Brett Kavanaugh. Lindsey seems like an angry white men and we have
far too many of those in office or being appointed to the Supreme Court. He
seems like he supports everyone who the president appoints to the Supreme
Court, but I know that he didn’t support Merrick Garland.
There is too much hypocrisy by
Republican’ts that they must have forgotten that Merrick was ever nominated to
the court. Lindsey even made a bad comment about the woman who first came
forward and accused Brett of sexual assault. What I need to do here is post a
link to two villains from The Flash that accurately represent what
Republican’ts are like regarding if they are in charge or not.
On
Saturday, October 6, 2018, I rolled the number 6 again and got to watch the
sixth episode of the season entitled Udder Revenge. This actually delays when I
normally would have posted my CSI: Cyber blog by just a day. But it should
matter too much.
The fate of Brett Kavanaugh is
that he was confirmed to the Supreme Court with only 50 yes votes. The only
people who got less votes were back when the senate less than that 100 members.
I just cannot fathom why people think that him being on the court would be a
good idea and why they feel that he should be on it. A lot of people felt that
the accusations were lies. I saw a woman on the local news who said that she
never reported her rape to the police and is glad about that decision. This is
the world we live in. We should not be proud of it. According to PBS, 54% of
Republicans feel that if the allegations against him are true, he should still
be on the court. What the fuck? There’s a good song that sums up my whole
feelings about this.
I’ve decided that this will be
the last paragraph of this particular post that will be political. I’ve written
more than I’ve needed to in this post. Now I will wait until other posts to do
more about some subjects that I covered here and others that I’ll cover later. This
is a really long post and very little about this will end up being the episode
in question, but I will add a part before the important part. Now you might
want to know just how long politics in this country have been terrible. Well, I
have here some exclusive footage from 1776 where the founding fathers are just
like the angry white men of today.
To me, it seems odd that
Elizabeth is wanting to run for president at this point in the show. I have the
feeling that Hollywood will come up with a bunch of great women presidents
before we have one of ourselves in reality. Maybe there will be a time jump in
the show. Let’s do the time warp again! Just a jump to the left, then
unintelligible lyrics, is what I always hear when listening to that song. But I
will wait and see what happens in the end.
Before I get to the football
games before primetime, I should get to the last movie watching update that I
will include in this post. Rush Hour 2 is now Pocahontas. The grade school
gradation is now high school graduation. And a home video is watched and
replaced by another home video. There should not be any more updates until the
next post.
I tune into FOX and they are
airing the Rams/Seahawks game. The Rams are losing. They have 24 points to the
Seahawks 31 points. I’ll have to check my CBS affiliates. One is showing the
local news. I check the other one and they are showing the CBS Weekend News.
Thus, the only game that is on in my region is on FOX. I’ll have to check the
score during 60 Minutes.
Going back to the game, the
Rams now have 30 points. They haven’t lost yet during the regular season, but
it could happen in the future. I watch the cold open of 60 Minutes, although I
miss part of it because I was into the game. The Rams are still losing, so
we’ll see what happens.
After the first story, I check
the game again or try to, but the game isn’t on as commercials are on. The
second story then happens. I see that the Rams have 33 points later while the
Seahawks have the same number of points. This means that the Rams are now
winning. I get supper ready during this time and while I miss the end of the
game, I learn that the final score is Rams: 33, Seahawks: 31. The Rams are on
quite a winning streak. We’ll see if this lasts. Now after 12 pages largely
unrelated to this show, let’s get to the point of it by finally talking about the show in question.
THE IMPORTANT PART BEGINS NOW!
Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with Stevie at the
white house telling people that her mother is running late for the meeting. Conrad
and Russell are doing an amusing anecdote to people. There is some random lady
who at the white house when it seems like some sort of bomb went off for some
odd reason. We then go back to a week earlier in the timeline. Why do shows
often not start on time?
The McCords are having fun on
Martha’s Vineyard. Conrad and Russell are there too. Elizabeth has told people
that she is running for president and they need to make the announcement
official. There is some sort of situation in India. There is violence against
citizens against Indians. Russell, as usual, does not want to rush into
decisions. A vacation is news, which makes sense. Remember when Obama was
criticized for being on vacation once a storm hit Louisiana?
Who is Adele and why is Stevie
working for her? Was there a time jump that we all missed? I do not know who
this probably new character is that Stevie is talking to. Russell talks about
it. From earlier, it seems that Elizabeth wants to make sure she rightfully
condemns the wrongs going on in India. This woman that Stevie is working for
seems just like the boss from The Devil Wears Prada. Mutually assured
destruction is still the nuclear policy going forward on India. That sounds
like a bad idea. There are some seemingly minor issues with Elizabeth and
Henry.
Henry is then on a sort of
show maybe of some sort. He has arguments with the person and it seems that
people agree with what is going on. Elizabeth gets a call from a person and
they no longer want to do the nuclear deal because of what Henry did on this
show.
In segment two, Elizabeth
talks about what happened on the show and how she seeks to still advance with
the deal. She then tells Henry about what happened. Will he have to apologize
for it? He feels that it might be considered false and thus, not wanting to do
it. Jay, I think (he looks like Blake and I have a bit of a hard time telling
them apart) is talking to someone about the situation. Elizabeth had people at
her house in order to try to figure out a solution to what is going on.
In segment three, Russell gets
an update about the protests that seem recent. Stevie might have been out at a
job interview. It turns out that she was offered a job and is considering it.
We then get to some sort of meeting that the main team is doing. Elizabeth
later talks with Russell. Elizabeth and Henry then argue some over recent
events and making sure that they are on the same page. Stevie wants to make
sure that she is respected. Elizabeth is late for what is going on and we get
back to the beginning of the show when the bombing happened. She is forcefully
taken away from it for her own safety.
In segment four, we get to
people after the blast. But what happened? And who did it? And why? What is
going on? It seems that the woman from earlier, June, is hurt. Stevie passes
out. There was a lot of blood lost. Henry is there and is worried. Russell and
Conrad are okay. Conrad talks to Elizabeth about what is going on. They go
after suspected bad guys. We then see her at a hospital. Elizabeth and Henry
then apologize for the fighting. Elizabeth thinks that white nationalists
supremacists (I prefer the second word) might be behind the attack in question.
In segment five, Stevie is
doing well according to the doctor, nurse, surgeon, or whoever it was that was
talking to her. They talk to her and they are very worried about what is going
on. Russell then winds up calling someone to inform them that June is dead. I
still don’t know who she was supposed to be. It was an emotional scene to do,
I’m sure. Elizabeth then gets in a room
with various people who appear to all be real, former secretaries of states. I
wonder why they weren’t credited in advance. I almost wasn’t sure that this was
happening in this episode. Who is the guy, though? They need to make sure that
the country is still united over the attack. The deal then happens.
Elizabeth talks on TV. She
wants to make sure that she is attacking the right person. She also wants to
make sure that people know the difference between nationalism and true
patriotism. I like the speech that she is giving, even though it is hard to
summarize it all. I wish that the leaders of the current world would be like
this. Oops. I said I was done with politics. But this is the way that
politicians of today should be like, but often aren’t.
On the next Madam Secretary, it
turns out that the terrorist attack is just the beginning. Well, they do need a
plot for this season now, don’t they? It is hard to make sense of what little
was revealed in it as they always seem to make promos nowadays too vague. But
it is good to be back blogging about the show and now my facebook friends can
see these regular posts. Know that for now, you will not know whether these
posts will be on Mondays or Tuesdays. If it is one day regularly in the future,
I will let you know for sure. Look out for other blogs on Mondays and hopefully
there won’t be any issues with this being later than it should be. For now,
this is Adam Decker, signing off.
