Everyone Failed Social Media : Except Mark Colvin
Everyone Failed Social Media : Except Mark Colvin
I knew Mark Colvin (and his kidney!) purely through Twitter! And sad at his loss. I did read some of his interview transcripts: a gentle questioner able to get a better answer! But in the maelstrom that is Twitter, he came across as funny, intelligent, curious, never ever patronising, clever and subtle, a joy to read. And his last tweet!! I think every one failed social media except for Mark…

October Goes (10/29/22)
This weekend lies right on the line that divides post-summer from pre-winter. Johnny Mercer knew that as he wrote what became the lyrics to the song “When October Goes.” After Johnny died, his widow Ginger discovered the poem and gave it to Barry Manilow to set to music. It describes perfectly this time of year, which John & Jessica are spending by the lake, in the Deluxe Cabin.

'90s MV of the day
youtube
Sunny Came Home by Shawn Colvin
Directed by Mark Seliger and Fred Woodward, released in 1997. The folk-rock hit was named Song of the Year and Record of the Year at the 1998 Grammys... which was a bit overshadowed by Wu-Tang Clan's Ol' Dirty Bastard protesting their Best Rap Album loss to Puff Daddy ("Wu-Tang is for the children...") while she was about to receive her award.

Jill Colvin, Colleen Long, and Lindsay Whitehurst at AP, via HuffPost:
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Donald Trump was the target Sunday of “what appears to be an attempted assassination” at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, the FBI said, just nine weeks after the Republican presidential nominee survived another attempt on his life. The former president said he was safe and well, and authorities held a man in custody. U.S. Secret Service agents posted a few holes up from where Trump was playing noticed the muzzle of an AK-style rifle sticking through the shrubbery that lines the course, roughly 400 yards away. An agent fired and the gunman dropped the rifle and fled in an SUV, leaving the firearm behind along with two backpacks, a scope used for aiming and a GoPro camera, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said. The man was later taken into custody in a neighboring county.
It was the latest jarring moment in a campaign year marked by unprecedented upheaval. On July 13, Trump was shot during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and a bullet grazed his ear. Eight days later, Democratic President Joe Biden withdrew from the race, giving way for Vice President Kamala Harris to become the party’s nominee. And it was sure to add to the questions about Secret Service protective operations after the agency’s admitted failures in preventing the attempted assassination of Trump this summer. In an email to supporters, Trump said: “There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” He wrote: “Nothing will slow me down. I will NEVER SURRENDER!”
He returned to Mar-a-Lago, his private club in Palm Beach where he lives, according to a person familiar with Trump’s movements who was not authorized to discuss them publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. It was not immediately clear whether the incident would affect his campaign schedule. He was set to speak from Florida about cryptocurrency live on Monday night on the social media site X for the launch of his sons’ crypto platform. He planned a town hall Tuesday in Flint, Michigan, with his former press secretary, Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, followed by a rally Wednesday on New York’s Long Island.
[...] The Florida golf course was partially shut down for Trump as he played, but there are several areas around the perimeter of the property where golfers are visible from the fence line. Secret Service agents and officers in golf carts and on ATVs generally secure the area several holes ahead and behind Trump when he plays. Agents also usually bring an armored vehicle onto the course to shelter Trump quickly should a threat arise. The Palm Beach County sheriff said the entire golf course would have been lined with law enforcement if Trump were the president, but because he is not, “security is limited to the areas that the Secret Service deems possible.”
Yesterday, Donald Trump was the target of an apparent assassination attempt at his Trump International Golf Club. This is the 2nd assassination attempt against him this campaign cycle, just over two months after the assassination attempt in Butler, PA.

Trump, on Biden’s 81st birthday, releases doctor’s note that says he’s in ‘excellent’ health
Tumblr media
NEW YORK (AP) — GOP front-runner Donald Trump marked President Joe Biden ‘s 81st birthday on Monday by releasing a letter from his physician that reports the former president is in “excellent” physical and mental health.
The letter posted on Trump’s social media platform contained no details to support its claims — measures like weight, blood pressure and cholesterol levels, or the results of any test. Dr. Bruce A. Aronwald, a New Jersey physician who says he has been Trump’s doctor since 2021 and most recently examined him in September, reported that Trump’s “physical exams were well within the normal range and his cognitive exams were exceptional.”
He added that Trump’s most recent lab results were “even more favorable than prior testing on some of the most significant parameters” thanks to recent weight loss he credited to “improved diet and continued daily physical exercise, while maintaining a rigorous schedule.”

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN
March 19, 2024
HEATHER COX RICHARDSON
MAR 20, 2024
In Florida, Kansas, Ohio, Illinois, and Arizona, Republican voters chose their presidential candidate today. The results highlight the weaknesses former president Trump is bringing to the 2024 presidential contest.
Trump, who is the only person still in the Republican race, won all five of today’s Republican races. But the results showed that his support is soft. Results are still coming in, but as I write this, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, who has suspended her campaign, received between 13% and 20% of the vote, Florida governor Ron DeSantis—who has also suspended his campaign—picked up votes, and “none of the names shown” got more than 5% in Kansas. 
Even in Ohio, where Trump’s preferred Senate candidate won, Trump received less than 80% of the Republican vote. After NBC News conducted an exit poll in Ohio, MSNBC producer Kyle Griffin reported that of Ohio Republican primary voters—who are typically the most committed party members—11% said they would vote for Biden in November and another 8% said they wouldn’t vote for either Trump or Biden.
Trump has money problems, too. This morning, Brian Schwartz of CNBC reported that while Trump has pushed Haley voters away, Biden’s team has courted both voters and Haley donors to help Biden defeat Trump. Schwartz said that at least a half dozen former Haley fundraisers have decided to help Biden. 
Aside from the Haley supporters who are moving to Biden, Trump’s campaign faces a money crunch. As Schwartz reported yesterday, small donors have slowed down their financial support for Trump considerably, possibly because of fatigue after 9 years of Trump’s supercharged fundraising pitches. Big donors have also been holding back funds out of concern that they will not go toward electing Republicans, but rather will be used to pay Trump’s legal fees.
On March 14, Trump’s people organized a new joint fundraising committee, called the Trump 47 Committee. It is designed to split the money it gets between state Republican parties, the Republican National Committee, and Trump’s Save America Political Action Committee (PAC). As Schwartz notes, Save America spent $24 million on Trump’s legal bills in the last six months of 2023.
While running for president is pricey, so is breaking the law. The former president continues to rail against the law that he must deposit either money or a bond to cover the court-ordered $454 million he owes in penalties, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, and interest, after he and the Trump Organization were found liable for fraud. “I would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices, and if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone. Does that make sense? WITCH HUNT. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” Trump posted on his social media channel. 
Lisa Mascaro, Mary Clare Jalonick, and Jill Colvin of the Associated Press wrote today that Trump is putting the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol at the heart of his presidential campaign, rewriting the five deaths and the destruction to claim that the rioters were “unbelievable patriots” whom he will pardon as soon as he takes office again. His new hires at the Republican National Committee to replace staff he fired are strengthening the idea that Biden stole the 2020 election. 
He’s being helped by loyalists in Congress who are trying to rewrite the history of that day to claim that Trump and the rioters have been persecuted by the Department of Justice. They are attacking the testimony of witnesses like Cassidy Hutchinson, former aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, about what she saw that day, although she testified under oath and they are not similarly bound to tell the truth. Trump has said former Wyoming representative Liz Cheney, a Republican who served as vice chair of the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol, “should go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee!” 
But while Trump’s supporters are willing to sing along to a recording of incarcerated participants in the riots singing their version of the national anthem—the song lyrics are credited to “Donald J. Trump and J6 Prison Choir”—the fact that more than 1,200 people have been charged for their actions that day and many of them have been sentenced to prison seems likely to dampen enthusiasm for trying something like that again. 
Today, former Trump advisor Peter Navarro also had to report to prison, in his case a federal prison in Miami, for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the January 6th committee for documents and testimony. Last September, a jury found Navarro guilty of contempt of Congress, rejecting his insistence that he didn’t have to answer to Congress because Trump had invoked executive privilege over their conversations about overturning the 2020 presidential election. 
Navarro vowed to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court, but a federal appeals court agreed with the verdict, and yesterday, for the Supreme Court, Chief Justice John Roberts rejected Navarro’s plea to stay his sentence. “I am pissed—that’s what I am feeling right now,” Navarro told reporters just before he reported to prison for his four-month sentence. 
Trump is also facing renewed scrutiny on his past behavior. With the election interference case in Manhattan heating up, Trump sought to block his former fixer Michael Cohen, adult film actress Stormy Daniels, and former model Karen McDougal from testifying. All of them say Trump paid to keep voters from hearing negative stories about him before the 2016 election. Judge Juan Merchan denied those motions.
And there was a surprise announcement today. Tomorrow, the House Oversight Committee will hold another hearing in the Republicans’ ongoing attempt to impeach President Joe Biden. Today the Democrats on the committee announced they have invited Lev Parnas as their witness. The Ukrainian-born Parnas was an associate of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani and was deeply involved in the effort to create dirt to smear Biden before the 2020 election. 
In 2022, Parnas was convicted of wire fraud, false statements, and breaking campaign finance laws by funneling money illegally to Trump and other Republican lawmakers. Since he broke with Giuliani, he has been eager to explain what happened and how. He will likely bring up stories that Trump would prefer that voters forget.
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, told reporters: “Lev Parnas can debunk the bogus claims at the heart of the impeachment probe and, in the process, explain how the GOP ended up in this degraded and embarrassing place.”

Today marks the 85th birthday of civil rights icon Claudette Colvin. At the age of 15, she refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man. This defiant act occurred nine months before Rosa Parks' similar action. It was only recently that her criminal record was finally expunged.

Farewell Funerals in Succession
The heirs to media mogul Waystar Royco bid their father farewell in this week's episode of Succession. A cavalcade of characters showed up for the funeral at New York City's St. Ignatius Loyola church, including Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), Shiv, and Connor.
Jeremy Strong's performance as Logan was exceptional, hitting the right notes of lows and highs. Here's a look back at his process leading up to the funeral and on the day itself. To know more about Farewell Funerals in Logan, visit the Farewell Funerals website or call 0404660974.
When someone passes away, the family must make a number of decisions that can be emotionally challenging. This is why pre-planning can help families avoid the burden of decision-making during a stressful time and ensure that their loved one’s wishes are fulfilled.
Funerals are recognized rituals for the finality of death and provide a space for surviving family and friends to begin their healing journey. They can also be a place to honor the deceased’s life and legacy.
In the penultimate episode of Succession, the opulent HBO drama bid farewell to its beloved patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox). The episode featured one of the series’ most memorable—and cringe-worthy—funeral scenes, as Kendall, Roman, Shiv, and Connor gave their eulogies in front of the gathered crowd. But not all of the eulogies were created equal. We graded the best and worst. Read more about this episode here.
Funerals can be overwhelming for those left behind, especially if they have to focus on planning and handling the details of their loved one's memorial service. That's why it's important to pre-plan, so the family members have peace of mind that their loved one's final wishes are taken care of and they can mourn without all the extra stress.
Logan Roy (Hugh Jackman) makes a surprise appearance at ATN, giving a saber-rattling speech in which he threatens to vanquish his rivals and reduce them to "f-jam smears on the highway." The episode's hauntingly ominous score by Nicholas Britell signals that things are about to go downhill quickly.
Back at Colvin Funeral Home, Regina Logan (Regina Benz), a licensed embalmer and funeral director, is busy prepping the body of Ewan Logan (James Cromwell). She had moved to Fayetteville to follow her son into the military, but her work in the industry keeps her here. Logan has embalmed more than 2,000 people in her two decades of experience, and she knows that proper preparation is the key to a successful outcome for every family.
Hundreds of people filed into the funeral home to pay their last respects -- or in many cases, their first. Lizzy Shelley touched countless lives in her short life, and she made an indelible mark on the community.
It's the penultimate episode of Succession and it's time for the Roys to say goodbye to their dearly departed father Logan (Brian Cox). And what better day to do so than the day after a gruelling election night?
Of course, that doesn't stop the siblings from going on a bit of an ego trip. Bonus heinousness points go to Roman (Kieran Culkin) for following Shiv's (Sarah Snook) pregnancy announcement with an all-too-on-brand joke about breastfeeding and masturbation. It's a good thing Logan wasn't there to hear it.
In the rarefied world of Succession, hardly a scene passes without a mention of money. Often, the sums are quite large. Connor torchers $100 million in his ill-fated presidential campaign, and the Roy siblings outmatch Logan in a bidding war for Pierce Global Media by offering $10 billion (which Logan gleefully chides them for "saying the biggest number, you fucking morons").
But when it comes to the funeral of Logan Roy — the father of Kendall, Shiv, Roman and Connor — it's a much more sombre affair. To know more about Farewell Funerals in Logan, visit the Farewell Funerals website or call 0404660974.
Even so, the scheming continues. Kendall tries to curry favor with Logan's widow Marcia, making an off-color remark about wanting to bed her. Roman encourages Kendall to use the occasion to curry favor with Mencken, while Greg greets Matsson and asks him to introduce him to Mencken. And despite the sombre atmosphere, the funeral mass itself is tumultuous. It's a moment that both Logan haters and fans alike will find hard to shake.
