Roger Stone and Holocaust Denier Chuck C. Johnson: Peas in a Putrid Pod

Stone threatens to sue Twitter
Weird • Views: 51,321

Long time Donald Trump crony Roger Stone was permanently banned from Twitter yesterday after a series of ugly, threatening and racist tweets directed at CNN hosts.

When I heard the news, I noted that even though Stone loves to bash Holocaust denier Chuck C. Johnson, in reality they could be clones of each other:

Now both Roger and Chuck are permanently suspended from Twitter. And I also noted that right wing hate spewers always freak out when they lose their Twitter accounts because they realize how important the social network is to their nasty agenda:

ReplyReply w/ Quote

Well, today we see another way in which Roger Stone and Chuck C. Johnson (who is NOT ME) are peas in a putrid pod: like Chuck, Stone is now threatening to sue Twitter.

Longtime Trump associate Roger Stone Jr. said he will sue Twitter in response to the company banning him from the platform.

“I have retained one of the best telecommunications lawyers in the country and will be bringing a legal action against Twitter over the suspension of my account,” he told TheWrap. “The battle for free speech has just begun.”

Anyone want to bet this “lawsuit” never materializes?

OT here, but that windstorm that roared through the Czech Republic did some damage. Quite a bit, actually.

Train service between Prague and eastern parts of the country is cut off. At least 300,000 households are without power. And you can see from video and photos on this page that the Czech Republic took something of a hit. ceskatelevize.cz

Highest recorded winds were in Sněžka, in the north of the country, which is up in the mountains - gust of 180 km/h.

Anyway, back to your regular program. :)

Wow. I was whining about just under 120 kph winds tearing the roof off my temporary garage a couple of weeks ago. That’s nothing compared to 180 kph.

You can see from this photo of Prague Main Train Station that part of the roof got torn off.

Pretty serious. One of my friends here, she just her power restored about 20 minutes ago. Another friend of mine is at her parents, up in the mountains…..I asked her how things were and she said she was afraid to go outside for fear she’d get blown away.

Tides are more or less uniform, they play fair…all boats go up or down the same amount no matter how big they are

The economy is an unfair tide lifting some boats more and some less based on their size and other influences

This doesn’t even get into that fact that other boats (or the tide Masters) are actively and aggressively trying to sink yours

The rising tide metaphor, I usually respond to with ‘ok, so what happens when you can’t afford a fucking boat? And the ones who own the boats tell you that you deserve to drown because you couldn’t afford one?”

Yikes. Something came through northern Germany last night too. Flooded the Fischmarkt and power is out at my office next door.

And apparently the new Elbphilharmonie (massively over schedule and budget, national butt of jokes, finally finished a year ago) flooded, when their floodgates failed. (insert rolling eyes gif here…)

That German TV series I posted about, Babylon Berlin…..it looks like Netflix has picked it up. Article doesn’t say when they’ll start streaming it though.

Netflix had already secured “Babylon Berlin” for the U.S. and Australia and New Zealand. Sky has it in Germany, Italy, and the U.K. Beta Film said it has sold the show into 60 territories.

The series is a landmark in German-language drama in terms of its $47 million budget and its ambition. The first episodes will premiere in Cannes, at Mipcom, next week. Two eight-part seasons have been greenlit.

So NYT finally acknowledges the Mueller indictments…almost 2 days later and in an article that appears on their website’s main page on the journalistic equivalent of below the fold. Their frontpage article? A question about whether New York is prepared for another Hurricane Sandy, while the Trump article appears below one about the planned cuts to 401Ks appearing in the GOP “tax reform” bill.

Particularly galling is that a year ago this weekend, they dedicated the front page to Comey’s October Surprise letter to Congress.

Priorities.

I get the Sandy coverage. It’s pretty important especially in the NYC metro area. Lots done, but a lot more that needs to be done.

But there are ways to keep a story above the fold with headlines, column inches, and prioritizing. The Times is giving cover to Trump - on purpose or incidentally - and he is deserving of neither.

Same way that 40 days out from Maria and the Times can’t be bothered to report above the fold about the massive failures of the admin to restore basic services to Puerto Rico.

It’s the same kind of depraved indifference Trump shows.

I get that it’s big local news to New Yorkers about prep for another Sandy, but that’s something that should at best be below the fold and more likely buried in the local section of paper. That it takes up front center of the paper while the Trump article is relegated to the sideline and nothing written about PR on the front page at all despite growing revelations about Whitefish smacks of a paper that is invested heavily in the future of a Trump admin.

What should make things interesting to watch is if Whitefish tries to impose a “severance fee” for PREPA canceling the contract, whether PREPA pays that “fee,” and if Whitefish tries to drag them to court over failure to do so.

Who the fuck is writing this and why the fuck is anyone listening to Christie? Because Trump’s entire campaign is under investigation, which means he’s under investigation.

There are Congressional investigations. The FBI. Mueller. And there’s intel community evidence gathering.

Mueller’s looking at everything everyone did during the campaign and looking at obstruction of justice and all the rest. Trump included.

I’m married to a die-hard Dodgers fan. My 12 year-old is just as bad. He has a (very creepy) Clayton Kershaw Fathead in his room. Dodgers stuff everywhere. It’s their father-son thing, just like it was for my husband and his father. They may be ready to throttle each other, but all stops for baseball.

My father-in-law died at almost exactly this time last year. I woke up this morning and thought, “They’re going to the World Series tonight. That man’s shade will haunt me for 40 years if I don’t make them go.” I told my protesting husband, “This is not optional. He left you a little money for EXACTLY times like this. No debate.”

Get on Stub Hub. Someone was selling their seats for less than the other seats are going for, by a lot. Got them. My husband and son are going. I have genuinely never seen them so excited about ANYTHING.

Life is short. I adored my father-in-law. This game is on him.

Yep, he’s an unreal pitcher. I don’t pay much attention to teams my husband isn’t coaching…I only have so much mental bandwidth for sports in one lifetime…but you cannot live in my house and not absorb some Dodgers baseball by osmosis.

re: #82 BlueGrl21

I’m married to a die-hard Dodgers fan. My 12 year-old is just as bad. He has a (very creepy) Clayton Kershaw Fathead in his room. Dodgers stuff everywhere. It’s their father-son thing, just like it was for my husband and his father. They may be ready to throttle each other, but all stops for baseball.

My father-in-law died at almost exactly this time last year. I woke up this morning and thought, “They’re going to the World Series tonight. That man’s shade will haunt me for 40 years if I don’t make them go.” I told my protesting husband, “This is not optional. He left you a little money for EXACTLY times like this. No debate.”

Get on Stub Hub. Someone was selling their seats for less than the other seats are going for, by a lot. Got them. My husband and son are going. I have genuinely never seen them so excited about ANYTHING.

Life is short. I adored my father-in-law. This game is on him.

This rocks!

Except they didn’t, as the company lacked the license for export. Not to mention the US is a net importer of uranium, so the idea that we “sold off 20% of America’s uranium” is horseshit.

So their viewers might actually believe that the indictments they’re hearing in the news are aimed at the Clintons, considering how soon they came after the GOP valiantly started their “investigations.”

We’d never put up with an American Putin for long, and Trump is not nearly as capable as Putin.

The wingnut talking points are pretty clear: Mueller’s investigation is based upon lies and so he must resign, the lies were fabricated by Hillary (with help from the Russians) and thus prove her guilt, and any “serious” investigation will involve indictments for her and any connected to her (including Obama, Lynch, Jarrett, etc). That if the wingnuts wake up tomorrow to Flynn, Manafort, Kushner, or even Donny himself in cuffs, then “the fix is in” and the Democrats are engaging in a coup.

So in order to save the Republic, we must initiate a counter-coup?

From a legal perspective, going after the “small fry” for sure-kill charges makes perfect sense because if gives you leverage to make a deal for a “bigger fish.” But that’s when you have the full support of your superiors, which it is clear Mueller does not and has not had since he was appointed. He has to deal with the reality that Trump may very well throw caution to the wind and pardon his buddies in the hopes they’ll clam up and stop the investigations in their tracks. So my hope is that the reports of multiple indictments are true and the charges include state-level charges, which would make it impossible for Trump to pardon them in toto.

Tiefer, for one, said that though all the facts aren’t out yet, it’s clear something “went very wrong” with the way the contract was awarded.

**shrugs**. The problem with these talking points is that the vast majority of Americans don’t like trust. Hence, his historically low approval ratings. No one except Trump’s shrinking White bigot base are going to believe any of those ridiculous talking points especially as Mueller’s indictments begin to add up and his investigation findings are released.

Some interesting points here, including speculation that Mueller’s indictment could be part of an international action.

He takes this seriously as he should be. I’m glad we have Mueller on the case.

Yashar is steadily becoming Chris Cillizza.

I unfollowed him, after he got insulting and abusive with me when I tried to argue that the propaganda that Trump’s iPhone “has no web browser” had to be bullshit. Which I still believe, by the way.

He’s always leaned to the right, but it’s getting ridiculous now. Lecturing Ted Lieu about being civil to Sarah Sanders, give me a fucking break. No. Just no.

The recent praise he’s gotten seems to have gone to his head.

True. Perhaps replace Chris Hayes.

Nah, I vote replace Chris Matthews. But I’d love to see Joy in the evening line-up.

I’m going to get CL’d, but he was a fundraiser for Hillary 2008 & worked for Gavin Newsome.

She and Ari Melber seem to be the ‘Go To’ folks to cover others’ days off. But, yeah. Joy deserves a primetime show. But whose? Brian Williams? I’d rather trade him for an earlier repeat of Chris Hayes, who’s on at 5PM here, and not repeated until midnight.
