YouTube video by MSNBC Lawrence: With Trump's shutdown ending, Dems are closer than ever to forcing Epstein files release

There were several mentions of Lawrence O'Donnell's piece this morning.

For those who haven't heard it:

(It's 18 minutes. Wait until after Mama's show!)

That said, congratulations to USC.

Uh... Minor criticism:

The first line of the fight song is:

"Go, U Northwestern, break right through that line!"

Go Cats!

I have known both all my life.

How have I never combined the two before?

It also does not appear to be designed for anyone who didn't like Friends.

I've never seen more than 5 minutes of a single episode. This video suggests that was a good move...

"Water dump "?

Well, I guess water is the essence of wetness...

Hearing Chris recite the Green Acres theme song and then get into Eva Gabor character has set my week off right!

Happy Monday to all the show staff and all the StephHeads!

In yellow because of Russian prostitutes?

Posts claim photo shows Trump, Epstein and Bondi. They're almost right The original image, taken in 1997, shows the two men with Belgian model Ingrid Seynhaeve.

As others have said, it's Belgian model Ingrid Seynhaeve.

Snopes traced it to a Getty Images photo.

You're welcome!

We're all in this together. 🙂

Picturing Chris wearing a propeller beanie... And now I'm picturing Chris as an extremely ripped version of Captain Horatio Huffenpuff on the Beanie and Cecil show.

Hi, Leonard.

I'm not officially connected to the show, but I'm watching now on freespeech.org/live-tv/

Please note it usually starts with audio muted. Click the play arrow in the center of the screen, and then around either the top or bottom border click the "speaker with an X" icon to unmute.

Their lead singer left after that disastrous concert in Virginia Beach. They've reformed the band as Monotonous Dreck.

That doesn't identify the distribution network inside the US, and hence is useless.

Not to mention that it eliminates any possibility of identifying a buyer or tracing the distribution network within the US.

They're trying to eliminate ants on the sidewalk by stomping on each one instead of following them to a nest. 3 down, a million more to go.

Craig was holding out for Cupid in February?

Regarding changing out-of-office messages to political messages - that would violate HR and IT policy at most major corporations. If an inappropriate message were found, IT could change it to a generic message, otherwise hands off.

It's a firing offense at some.

Is it a form of defamation?

That picture just dropped a cherry on top of the whipped cream of my evening.
(And it's Monday, not Sundae!)

Please know that all of you are loved by an extremely large family.

Technically I don't think Kimmel did apologize, but HE SAID NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR!

He did explain his earlier statements in context, acknowledged that he understood how people could easily take offense.

After the shooting his first public response was compassion to the Kirk family.

Thru and thru.

(I'll be here all week, folks!)

Added: Apparently the documentary cameraman filming Trump's amazing visit was filming from the moving escalator and accidentally backed into the stop button.

So much winning.

I heard one (unverified) account this morning claiming that a member of White House staff pressed the emergency stop button on the escalator to give him a talking point.

If true, this may be subject to civil or criminal penalty, as the UN is partially subject to NYC law. (Any attorneys comment?)

Mama, if you are HR, please DO NOT SMOKE!

None of us are quite ready to see another HR Puffin' Steph right now.

Put it in full context.

He wanted the assassin to be someone who is not a resident of Utah, because that would have been a less painful reality.

I do not think he intended this as a smear against all immigrants.

(Full disclosure, I know nothing about him or his political views.)

I wonder whether Theodore Geisel was familiar with Simmen's study...

It sounds very reminiscent of The Sneetches...

I believe "Limestone+" means someone sold him cement blocks...

Yeah, but they managed to sneak in $8T of taxes on the rest of us...

Regarding the clip you played just before the Politics Girl intro. The speaker said everyone got something at first from the first Trump "tax cut".

This is incorrect. As an Illinois homeowner, the immediate impact of the tax cut was a $7k increase in my annual tax bill.

Is it my imagination, or did Pam Bondi (in the clip you played around hour 2:15) just put out a call for graffiti artists to swarm DC?

As an old Honeymooners fan, I confess this plays much better than the original.
