...For much of his career, he had professional protectors. People who knew him, and those people protected him. For example, his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, kept the wolves away. Made deals, counter claimed law suits, paid off some and so on. But Cohen decided to take the penalties and when he gets out, he can live clean in his mind that he paid his debt to society. So Cohen told the truth. Yes, he committed crimes. And Michael is paying for those crimes.
...While Cohen was around, he protected Trump and kept him out of trouble. Cohen is not around. The crowd that he currently has does not have the expertise and experience that Mr. Cohen had/has.
... Now, Trump is in far deeper trouble, and he still thinks he can get away with it. He has broken the law before, and gotten away with it, so why not now?
... Now, he is up against a different foe. Trump is up against individuals who can prove that he has broken the law, for all to see in the court of public opinion. Actually, that has been proven if one looks at the "proof." Beyond the "public opinion" court, is the real law. He broke that too. It really is a question of time before the House of Representatives votes to impeach, and send the rest of show to the Senate.
...But the "proof" is already out there. Trump broke the law. And this time, there is hell to pay. Trump has never had, "hell to pay" in the past. This time is totally different. Pelosi and Schiff can wait as more crimes are exposed and more proof is shown. Pelosi and Schiff have a different loyalty than Trump. Their loyalty is to the "truth.", and because of that "loyalty to the truth", Trump doesn't have a chance in hell. All Trump knows is/are lies.

... Of course Donald Trump thinks he is "so smart". And Donald has so much business experience that makes him think he is even "smarter." Of course, Donald "thinks he is smart".
...Actually there are two truths that prove Donald is going down. A: Pelosi and Schiff have a lot more government experience than Dopey Donald. Therefore, they know a lot more about the business of the federal government than Dopey Donald could possibly imagine.
... B: Real smart people don't go blabbing all the time, and don't go around telling everyone that they are "smart." An example of "B" is our last President, Barack Obama. Obama is really smart and highly respected. One of the most respected individuals in the entire world. Does anyone remember Obama going around telling people, "I am smart"? I don't recall that one, do you?
...Being "smart" involves not blabbing all the time about everything. I think Dopey Donald does not pass that test. Does he? Donald Drump is going down. He has already fallen off the cliff in my opinion.

Yes, this is a "trick question"..and it is also sort of "fun question" If someone gets it, I will let you know.

What does Monument Valley in Utah have to do with modern films of the last 75 years?
..........hint: relates to animated films...

...Never had this problem before, but today I have it. I looked at pictures stored in Picassa before I went on the internet. Found the one I wanted to send, and then hit the section of Picasa that says "Email the picture" I filled in my email address, and then my correct password. ..All I got was "cannot access account information"..I have never had trouble sending my photos before, but today it doesn't seem to work.
Yes, I have sent them in the past with no trouble. But today, for some reason the system is not working..Any ideas at all?
... I retried the account at gmail, not from the picassa folder, but from the account itself without the picture, on the internet,.and email went through..Any ideas? Perhaps I am doing something wrong..I don't know what? It has worked before..Maybe my computer is screwed up...But, I you can read this email sent from Illinois to wherever DU machines are located, something must work..
...I do want to send the pictures in my Picasa folder. I got 2000 pictures from locations like Tokyo, Maine, Florida etc.etc.etc. Please help if you can. Thank you for any ideas at all..And thank you for the time you took in posting those ideas..

So, you and I are pissed to hell about Dodging Donnie. And Dodging Donnie thinks he can gat away with it. But Pelosi, Schumer and Schiff are also pissed. They don't use those words, but Nancy said it will "take time." Do you think she knows what she is doing? I do. And I think those three are more pissed then us. (hard to believe?) They will get him. I don't know how or when, but Dodging Donnie and his gang are coming down. James Bond, Wonder Woman, and the Lone Ranger are on the way. Dodging Donnie and the "Liar Gang" are coming down, one way or another. That is how this movie/show/drama ends.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

For nearly three years, President Trump’s critics have warned that there might come a point when we face a genuine constitutional crisis, one that threatens our very Democratic system. That constitutional crisis has arrived.

The White House has released an extraordinary letter from White House Counsel Pat Cipollone to congressional Democrats, a document that will live on in infamy from this day forward as evidence of how profoundly Trump corrupted the office of the president and everyone around him.

Despite the fact that it appears under the signature of the chief lawyer of the White House, the letter reads like some combination of a deeply misinformed seventh-grader’s social studies paper and a rant from Sean Hannity, randomly tossing around terms like “civil liberties” and “separation of powers” without any apparent understanding of what they mean. And when they can’t, they will then go to the courts.”

Boiled down to its essence, the letter asserts that Trump is beyond the reach of oversight, of impeachment and of any checks and balances from the legislative branch. Because he thinks Congress is not treating him “fairly” (the word “fair” appears eight times in the letter), Trump has decided that he can issue a blanket refusal to “participate in your partisan and unconstitutional inquiry.” All requests for documents and testimony will be rejected, and all subpoenas will be thrown in the trash.

To put this in context, there are regular disputes between Congress and the executive branch over particular subpoenas or other ways Congress exercises its oversight power.

“The executive rarely if ever is willing to give up everything Congress wants on the terms that Congress wants,” Professor Melissa Murray of New York University law school told me. But the usual procedure is that after some negotiation, “they reach some compromise that’s mutually acceptable. And when they can’t, they will then go to the courts.”

Last night, Monday Oct 7, I was at a party for a 3 month old baby. Very cute, but at the end of the evening the host played a video of me being on Candid Camera in 1964. Now that was 55 years ago. So I was a delivery boy and I went to an address, and saw a sign on a door that said "Nudist Convention Colony all entrants must be properly attired." I scratched my head and said, "Can I take off half my clothes.?.. And that was on coast to coast TV on a very popular show in 1964. ( And the host of last nights party went to a lot of trouble to get that video..believe me..)

What was strange for me, (I had seen that before) but how I looked when I was 18. A young, handsome, thin fellow delivering packages. I ain't the same now, but yes, I was on Candid Camera in 1964..

Nice story from Florida:

https://people.com/human-interest/sheriffs-deputy-delivers-baby-pulling-over-speeding-parents/

As a Florida sheriff’s deputy in law enforcement for nearly three decades, Robert Pounds has delivered plenty of speeding tickets over the years. But prior to this week, he’d never before delivered a baby.

Pounds put his many years of training to work early Tuesday when he helped deliver a baby girl on the side of the road after pulling her parents over for speeding

The deputy had noticed a car going 63 mph in a 45 mph zone on Airport-Pulling Road in Collier County, and conducted a traffic stop around 4:30 a.m., the Collier County Sheriff’s Department said in a Facebook post.

As footage from the dash-cam shows, the car’s driver, Wilfrid Jean-Louis, explained the situation, prompting Pounds, a father of three, to spring into action and helped deliver a baby girl

..All he had to do is shut up. He couldn't. Like all bullies, he thinks he is indestructible. He is not. He is going down and that is the truth. When? I don't know. How will it happen? I don't know. Maybe impeachment. Maybe resignation. Maybe some other way. It doesn't matter. He is going down. Watching this bully go down is invigorating. Trump is acting like he knows he is going down. That doesn't matter either. What matters is he has lost and is going down. We won, and the bully is going down.
