KEY WEST LOU / MANHATTAN D.A. BRAGG TELLS JIM JORDAN AND THE HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS DON’T SCREW WITH MY CRIMINAL CASE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP

Jim Jordan and his MAGA controlled Judiciary Committee have been defecating on the law by bringing all kinds of baseless hearings against Democrats, Biden, in support of Trump, etc.  Manhattan District Attorney Bragg has had enough. He has put his foot down and said no more.

Bragg filed a federal lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee for interference in Bragg’s criminal case against Donald Trump.

Proper action by Bragg in my opinion. Congressional MAGA Republicans think they can do whatever they want. The law does not work that way. Bragg’s federal lawsuit asks the Court to enjoin Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee from interfering with a New York State criminal action.

Jordan and the Committee’s conduct from my perspective is unheard of. I believe Bragg’s move will be successful.

Chris Christie suspended his campaign for the 2024 Republican nomination. Sad. I have watched Christie’s career over the years. He calls them as he sees them. Straight forward. I do not always agree with him. However do respect his honesty, boldness and frankness.

Christie has been on Trump’s ass throughout this campaign. Properly so. He considers Trump not the man for the job, “unfit” the term he uses. He is one of the few major Republicans to be so forthcoming.

Christie made a right on observation last night: “Anyone who is unwilling to say (Trump) is unfit to be Presidnet of the United States, is unfit themselves to be President of the United States.”

Today’s podcast is 6 years old. Title: Conquest, War, Famine and Death, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Ron DeSantis has been lost along the way in the Republican Presidential Primary. His own doing. He is incompetent as well as a failed image of the Trump he tries to be. His book banning legislation has not served him well. It has turned out to be an all encompassing tool. One school district has banned the dictionary.

The Escambia County School District removed over 2,800 books from library shelves as they begin a review process to determine if they are “inappropriate” for students. Included were The American Heritage Children’s Dictionary, Webster’s Dictionary for Students, and the Merriam-Webster’s Elementary Dictionary.

Such crazies! Such waste of time and money!

I clearly recall my grammar school years were spent with a thick red dictionary by my side at home. I needed it and used it constantly. I have no recollection of ever having  learned a “dirty word or thought” from its use.

A significant day in Key West history. January 11, 1829. The four owners of the island of Key West, John Simonton, Pardon Greene, John Whitehead, and John Fleming, signed an agreement regarding the division of the island. They split the island in four equal parts.

This day in 2010 was the second coldest ever for the Keys. Key West was 42 degrees, Marathon 39, and Key Largo 35. I was here. I remember the day well.

My yesterday began with a Monkey Smoothie fix in the morning. Napped and watched a couple of old movies on the TV in the afternoon.

Last night the best! Fred Klein has returned. I introduced him to Brady’s Irish Pub. Typical of most, it was the Italian chicken parmesan special he found appealing. He enjoyed the entire meal!

Fred fell in love with the place. He did disappoint me in one regard. He was more impressed with Brady’s than Carola.

We had a great time! Introduced him to Carola. of course. Then Tony and his wife Candy. Tony a fisherman by day. Candy at one time lived in Kingston, N.Y. We talked about snow in northern New York. She had a photo sent her a couple of days ago showing a friend’s home in Kingston buried in snow. We both agreed, better them than us. I do not care if I never see snow again.

Fred needs no one to introduce him. He is gregarious. Spoke to everyone around him.

Carola took a picture of us which I show here. Fred is a proud Syracuse graduate also. Note the shirt he wore last night. Fred will be joining me saturday at noon at Jack Flats for the North Carolina game.

 

 

Syracuse beat Boston College last night 69-59. A wild game! Syracuse led by 19 late in the first half. Boston College fought back to take the lead in the second half. Syracuse ended up winning the game on a 20-9 run.

Syracuse star Judah Mintz did not play. He was benched by Coach Adrian Autrey for a rule violation. He will play saturday against North Carolina, however.

The day ahead a bit busy for me. First my Monkey Smoothie fix. Then a haircut with Lori. Followed by a manicure with Tammy.

It’s a tough life!

Enjoy your day!
