The subject of today will be Tulsi Gabbard, of Hawaii.  But first, a couple of other Trump developments. That MAGA vs Elon Musk civil war on immigration .  Was never a real issue anyway, for the new Trump administration will target  undocumented  immigrants.  Elon Musk and his techie friends only want to continue to have access to  documented immigrants , those science and engineering products from other countries, something Trump supports.  The heel in most of this is that odious Laura Loomer. You win some, you lose some.  Trump learned today that the  federal appeals court rejected his 2023 appeal regarding the sexually abused and defamed E. Jean Carroll .  In a  77-page ruling , the 3-judge panel said Carroll should get the $5 million previously granted.  And oh, by the way, there is that  other New York jury judgement this year  ordering Trump to pay Carroll $83 million for continuing to insult her.  So does ...

I yesterday posted on the Trials and Tribulations of Donald Trump.  Inserted was the following: Four years ago,  Donald Trump was up to 18 women who have accused him of varying inappropriate sexual behavior .  EIGHTEEN!!!  Click on that link to read the details and see their photo.  E. Jean has been coy about what she will do with the $88.3 million she will eventually get.  She is now 80 years old.  Not much time to do much with those funds when they become available.  One sure way to seriously bedevil Trump would be to someday soon announce that most this money will be provided to those women who need legal assistance to similarly go after Trump and his billions. Oh, an update, I found a  2023 article indicating that this number was not 18, but 26.   One of them was Ivana Trump, mother of Don Jr., Eric and Ivanka. I thought the repercussions from his failed attempted coup on 6January2021 would be his ultimate downfall.  Could well ...

  The   trials and tribulation of Donald Trump   continue this week: Last week he was found liable for $83.3 million in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case.  And, by the way, that $5 million awarded to her had to be paid, and will be held by the state pending appeal.  The same will occur this time too, which means that Trump will need to sell something to meet that need.  I might add a  thing or two about Carroll . There is a  photo of Trump and Carroll (circled) in the 1980's  when she was in her 40's.  She was then writing for Saturday Night Live.  She looked pretty attractive. She has been twice divorced, the second one in 1990. In the mid-90's she was host and producer of the Ask E. Jean television series aired on NBC's American's Talking, the predecessor to MSNBC.  She won a CableACE Award in 1995. The incident occurred around 1995, or 1996. Carroll was one of 13 women who accused CBS Corporation executive Les Moonves of s...
