Comment on C&L's Sat Nite Chiller Theater: Scarlett Street (1945)

On Fox News Monday evening, Sen. Ted 'Cancún' Cruz continued to debase himself by criticizing the MSNBC Morning Joe team in a lewd manner. This was in response to Joe and Mika's admittedly disastrous visit to Mar-A-Gofundme to talk to Donald Trump after the election. Ted Cruz was Trump's final opponent in the 2016 Republican primary race and was subjected to horrific attacks by Trump against both Cruz's wife and father. Who is kissing what? HANNITY: and then it goes further.

Jane Mayer of the New Yorker appeared on the Rachel Maddow show last night to talk about the bombshell story about Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth, and she dropped this little tidbit.

They gathered gleefully at a Virginia resort to hammer home their new strategy: Obstruct, obstruct, obstruct! And it worked, by golly. The Republicans were pumped because they saw a path out of the political wilderness.

Interesting discussion with Brianna Keilar and Rep. Dan Goldman yesterday about the Hunter Biden pardon and what drove it. Notice that Goldman is not cosplaying indignation about Biden going ahead with the pardon, as some shameless Democrats did. Instead, he pointed out that the nomination of Kash Patel was a red flag.
