The View from Lady Lake

Sunday, August 14, 2022

Donald Trump demanded that the FBI return to him any attorney-client material they seized from Mar-a-Lago during the raid on Monday. 'Oh great! It has just been learned that the FBI, in its now famous raid of Mar-a-Lago, took boxes of privileged 'attorney-client' material, and also 'executive' privileged material, which they knowingly should not have taken,' the former president lamented on Truth Social, referencing a recent Fox News report. He said that the FBI should consider his post on the alternative social media site his formal request that the documents be returned to his Palm Beach estate.

Florida Woman gives a new meaning to the word 'despicable'. Holy shit...

TITUSVILLE, Fla. – A Florida sheriff went on Facebook and berated a animal cruelty suspect as a “despicable excuse for a human being” after she was charged with drowning her Chihuahua.

The 32-year-old woman was already in the Brevard County jail on charges she stabbed a 68-year-old man when police were given video of her allegedly walking into a pool and holding the tiny dog underwater. Sheriff Wayne Ivey posted a Facebook video in which he described the abuse and made his thoughts clear about the crime. “There is a special place in hell for this woman. Until she gets there, she's going to rot in our jail,” Ivey said.

He showed a brief portion of the video, but said it was too graphic to show in its entirety. After drowning the dog, she slammed it down on the concrete patio, then put its body in a chair inside the home for several days, at one point holding it up during a social media post, Ivey said.

“This woman, if I hear as much that she has a pet rock, I will lose my crap,” he said.

While the woman was already in the jail, Ivey had her brought outside so he could walk her back in to be booked on the animal cruelty charges.

As he, Ivey and an animal cruelty investigator walked her back into the jail, Ivey says to her, “Usually when I’m walking people in, I have something to say to them. I’m disgusted by you. You’re looking all sad and stuff. How do you think that dog felt when you were holding it under the water?”

Watching Liz Cheney crash and burn is fun...

The three-term congresswoman - a sheep in wolf's clothing if ever there was one - may lose her seat in Tuesday’s Republican primary election in Wyoming, the most watched congressional primary of the year. Opinion polls show Cheney trailing Harriet Hageman, conservative lawyer and Trump’s choice, and defeat for the 'clarion voice' of the January 6 panel will, in many eyes, make her a martyr for Democrats. Good for her. Fuck her and fuck them, too..

It will also signal a tectonic shift in Wyoming, the least populated state in America and one of the most devoutly Republican. Its most consequential political figure is Dick Cheney, vice-president under George W Bush and father of Liz. Last week, in cowboy hat, fleece and gruff tones, he recorded a campaign video for her, excoriating Trump as a “coward” and saying there has never been anyone who is a “greater threat to our republic”.

Victory for Hageman would therefore be widely interpreted as a repudiation of Wyoming’s most venerable political dynasty, evidence that the state Republican party no longer belongs to the Cheneys but to Trump. That would reflect a final national pivot away from the Bush era establishment to the “Make America Great Again” movement – from old school conservatism to far-right populism - and a move in the right (no pun intended) direction after two years of stupidity and failure.
