Amigo I’m gonna walk over to the Pirate Bar today. I love this stupid heat. It used to better IMO, they got rid of the Abita & the bar stools which really sucks. But it’s one of my favorite places. And I think you’re right in general on this. I’ll see y’all next football season on the FFT bored, maybe if I re-up for FF for a 26th (!) season. Gotta get one more trophy though.

Unfortunately I thought this was going to be something else entirely.

No, my buddy was proudly making this argument in the 80s. I had to listen to a lot of Prince not mention his protégés. I was first introduced to him with 1999 but he was already known for Controversy & Dirty Mind.

Elly May was a Miss New Orleans? Did not know that. Also won Miss Baton Rouge. She was a Louisiana girl.

Thanks, great stuff, interesting. I had an old friend who passed away recently, he railed for years about how Prince was a musical genius. He used to argue with another guy we knew who was a huge Metallica fan & at first we thought he was crazy but he came to be proved right. As an aside Prince’s family I think on both sides but definitely his dad’s were Louisiana people. IIRC his father who was a jazz musician couldn’t get work in New Orleans (or he just hated it here) because of the segregation thing so he headed up north to Minny. Anyway cool video, that was indeed one of the all time great rock solos.

Ok that was pretty funny…

>>Many are now asking how you can support Carol and also Mr. Trump. “I voted for Donald Trump, and so did practically everyone here,” said Vanessa Cowart, a friend of Ms. Hui from church. “But no one voted to deport moms. We were all under the impression we were just getting rid of the gangs, the people who came here in droves.”<< Mizzou town thought Trump meant he was only going after bad guys.

One of Epstein’s earliest accusers Maria Farmer is suing the federal government for not acting on her reports.

Musk gutting huge swaths of government without direct presidential approval seems relevant. No doubt that’s how all this really ends, with some disaster caused by lack of staffing or funding & Trump claiming Musk did it without his permission.

Fair question, there’s likely a similar memo from his early weeks as president. Likely chief of staff & his staff secretary. But I agree people should know.

Trump’s own White House first week he took office granted auto pen authority to chief of staff Susie Wiles & staff secretary William Scharff for all matters. Biden likely had something similar as did other presidents. Though Wiles just had her phone hacked which is pretty scary & unprecedented.

Who runs Trump’s? He also uses it, like every President since at least Clinton.

>>As Elon Musk became one of Donald J. Trump’s closest allies last year, leading raucous rallies and donating about $275 million to help him win the presidency, he was also using drugs far more intensely than previously known, according to people familiar with his activities. Mr. Musk’s drug consumption went well beyond occasional use. He told people he was taking so much ketamine, a powerful anesthetic, that it was affecting his bladder, a known effect of chronic use. He took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms. And he traveled with a daily medication box that held about 20 pills, including ones with the markings of the stimulant Adderall, according to a photo of the box and people who have seen it.<< >>The White House did not respond to questions about whether it had asked Mr. Musk to take drug tests. As a large government contractor, his aerospace firm, SpaceX, must maintain a drug-free work force and administers random drug tests to its employees. But Mr. Musk has received advance warning of the tests, according to people close to the process.<< >> Mr. Musk had been using ketamine often, sometimes daily, and mixing it with other drugs, according to people familiar with his consumption. The line between medical use and recreation was blurry, troubling some people close to him. He also took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms at private gatherings across the United States and in at least one other country, according to those who attended the events.<< Musk’s drug use even greater than thought.

The President's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, had her phone hacked. - Wiles was using her private cell phone for White House business. More golden competence.

My point exactly, same guy doing the deep dive on the Trump foot licking hoax also wrote the piece on Biden's secret politburo.
