Trying To Get Himself Arrested

 We've all heard this:


"(Magistrate Judge Moxila) Upadhyaya told the former president that "the most important condition of release is not committing any new crimes while on release, which could lead to him being detained and could add to the sentence he may eventually face," according to NPR. "She told Trump that it is a crime to 'influence a juror or try to threaten or bribe a witness or retaliate against anyone' connected to the case. Trump said he understands.


Trump has repeatedly attawcked prosecutors and judges in his growing number of legal cases."


In the very few days since then, Trump has deliberately engaged in increasingly harsh attacks on these government employees.  It is absolutely clear to me, given what we know about him, that he is attempting to force the Judge's hand to place him in custody.  He thinks this will be a tremendous boon to his lying claims that he is an innocent person being persecuted by would-be Democratic dictators.  And at the rate he is going, I believe that, within a week, the Judge will indeed have to make good on her very justified conditions for his release.  Trump wants nothing more than to escalate his mob's fury, and this is the best way to do it right now.


And by the way, I have seen so many articles, from people that should know better, after every one of Trump's sick outbursts, pushing various versions of the "Boy, is he running scared now" line.  I believe this is totally wrong.  I think he believes he and his 70 million thug followers have the government and the other 270 million of us quaking at the thought of what will happen if he steals the Presidency again, and is having a great time working to destroy everything that is left of the American dream, still convinced that he will triumph in the end.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
