i thought that lyingweaselcounsel's name seemed familiar. so i looked it up. and, forsooth, it was. here is a picture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wi..."Purpura is a condition of red or purple discolored spots on the skin that do not blanch on applying pressure. The spots are caused by bleeding underneath the skin secondary to platelet disorders, vascular disorders, coagulation disorders, or other causes." see? doesn't know enough to act like a real lawyer. but is actually a real disease. [thank you petunia cat who also posted about this but before i did but I didn't know because i didn't read all the comments before i found this extremely tasteful picture of the soul of the trumpenheimer administration's soul.]

it's a play on a Billy Crystal bit where he says his daughter asks him off the cuff if Paul McCartney did anything before he was Wings...he goes into old man Yiddish character to say--**cough, cough** come here and let me tell you about the **cough* goddamn *cough* Beatles...And I often use the same sort of shtick talking to millennials when I reflect back on the "goddamn 1980's" (or 70's depending on the point I'm trying to make)

I heard that the issue of privilege around presidents is cloudy and judges like to see that the petitioning side has at least gone through all the tedious motions in an orderly way to get what information it needs. And then in court, they take seriously the right of that side to the information they're asking for. And that is the reason probably Nadler has submitted to having Hicks talk in private and Trump jr talk in private on limited subjects. I will say I'm so enraged that I unsubcribed in a rage from all my Democratic Party appeals-- esp the super-smarmy ones supposedly from Nancy P begging me and telling me all is lost. I'm so frustrated at the holdup, but I guess Nadler and those guys are dealing with it the best they can in the face of some sort of criminal mania.

There is a movie coming out where this guy is the only one in the world who remembers the beatles and he plays their songs and everyone thinks he is a genius, looks funny. There is a scene where they keep saying, "No, Hey Dude" is much better!: Hahahah

Ted Lieu was about my favorite part of the hearing. I couldn't stop smiling, such a relief after gritting my teeth and growling through Gaetz and Jordan and the other blithering airheads from the right.
