Here’s the Video Donald Trump Worried Would Be Used in a Campaign Ad (TIME Magazine)

The thing that struck me when I watched this was how much Trump rambled.

I’ve had to testify under oath. Paraphrasing, the best advice I ever got was, “Answer the question honestly. Answer what was asked. No more and no less.”

Trump’s lawyer jumps in once at the Serta question and cautions Trump about confidential information (I guess she can’t tell him not to talk so much), and for a few seconds Trump confines himself to yes and no answers, but then he returns to unnecessary embellishment and self-aggrandizement in his answers.

He Just. Can’t. Resist.

Here’s the Video Donald Trump Worried Would Be Used in a Campaign Ad

by Tessa Berenson (@tcberenson),Sept. 30, 2016

“Trump gave [this June 16, 2016] deposition in … connection with a lawsuit he filed in 2015 after chef Geoffrey Zakarian pulled out of plans to open a restaurant in Trump’s new D.C. hotel.” ~ Tessa Berenson (Video from POLITICO.COM) CLICK ON THE ARTICLE TO SEE THE VIDEO.

A video was released Friday of Donald Trump testifying under oath about his inflammatory rhetoric about Hispanics and immigrants, despite his lawyers’ arguments that it could be used in a campaign ad.

Trump gave the deposition in June in connection with a lawsuit he filed in 2015 after chef Geoffrey Zakarian pulled out of plans to open a restaurant in Trump’s new D.C. hotel. A D.C. Superior Court judge ruled the release of the video Thursday after Trump’s lawyers requested it stayed sealed over fears the content could be subject to “partisan editing,” Politico reports.

[First posted on November 12, 2013 by ThinkwingRadio]

I know you’ve all seen it, this 2 second clip of black and white film taken on D-day; June 6^th, 1944. You’ve probably watched it so many times that it’s just background to the bigger story of the invasion, and that’s certainly how this quick piece of film is used; 2 seconds of film showing G.I.s storming the beach. I’m not even sure which beach.

VIDEO: The ‘Real’ Andy Kaufman, Interviewed By Seth Schultz At ‘Pip’s Comedy Club’ in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn

1 Reply

Have you ever seen Andy Kaufman as ‘himself’? Really?

Most of us have never seen the ‘real’ Andy Kaufman without his personas for him to hide behind. Here in this rare video, he’s being interviewed by Seth Schultz, son of Pip’s Comedy Club then-owner and founder George Schultz, after doing nearly two hours on stage in front of an unhappy audience, and he’s clearly exhausted and ‘put out’ by the experience. At the time this video was shot, Pip’s (in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn) was the oldest and one of the most important comedy clubs in America.

This video is taken from a longer article entitled, “Marty Schultz, 58, Owner Of Pips Comedy Club, Passes Away In Las Vegas“ (By Ned Berke on October 10, 2013) published in SheepsheadBites.com. The date of the video is not specified.

“Here’s an interview Seth did with friend Andy Kaufman. Beginning at the 3:00-minute mark, Kaufman is talking about Pips, Seth and George, and Sheepshead Bay in general. This interview was the material Jim Carrey studied for his role in Man on the Moon.”

Rand Paul and Rachel Maddow Revisited: An early visit to the philosophical underpinning of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act

1 Reply

There’s been a national discussion about the so-called Religious Freedom Restoration Act signed into law in Indiana and pending in Arkansas.

What is interesting to me, and which has not to my knowledge been mentioned elsewhere, is that I have heard the logic used to defend and justify this law, and the ‘need’ for it, before. It was not well articulated, but you can hear the underpinnings of the reasoning there.

I first heard them almost 5 years ago.

It was in a famous – some might say notorious – interview that Rand Paul gave to Rachel Maddow when he announced his candidacy for the Senate seat from Kentucky. You can see and hear it here: Rachel Maddow’s interview with Rand Paul, 05/19/10 @ 10:10 PM—Updated 11/07/13 08:56 AM

This interview led to a commentary on my third-ever radio show.

2010-MAY-24: Welcome to the Mike Honig Show: Thinkwing Radio ™

It’s hard to do a really topical show when it runs only once a week, but I’m going to start a little differently today, because I want to talk about the Rand Paul controversy, what I think it’s really about, and what I think it means.

[On May 19, 2010,] I was watching when Rachel Maddow asked Rand Paul the question about the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and whether he could support that today. Continue reading →

Elizabeth Warren to Citigroup: “…Dodd-Frank isn’t perfect. It should have broken you into pieces!” [VIDEO, @ 6m10s]

Partial transcript* starting at 5m25s:

Democrats don’t like Wall Street bailouts. Republicans don’t like Wall Street bailouts. The American people are disgusted by Wall Street bailouts

And yet here we are, five years after Dodd-Frank with Congress on the verge of ramming through a provision that would do nothing for the middle class, do nothing for community banks, do nothing but raise the risk that taxpayers will have to bail out the biggest banks once again…

So let me say this to anyone who is listening at Citi[group]. I agree with you Dodd-Frank isn’t perfect. It should have broken you into pieces!

If this Congress is going to open up Dodd-Frank in the months ahead, then let’s open it up to get tougher, not to create more bailout opportunities. If we’re going to open up Dodd-Frank, let’s open it up so that once and for all we end too big to fail and I mean really end it, not just say that we did.

Instead of passing laws that create new bailout opportunities for too big to fail banks, let’s pass… something… that would help break up these giant banks.

A century ago Teddy Roosevelt was America’s Trust-Buster. He went after the giant trusts and monopolies in this country, and a lot of people talk about how those trusts deserved to be broken up because they had too much economic power. But Teddy Roosevelt said we should break them up because they had too much political power. Teddy Roosevelt said break them up because all that concentrated power threatens the very foundations of our democratic system.

And now we’re watching as Congress passes yet another provision that was written by lobbyists for the biggest recipient of bailout money in the history of this country. And its attached to a bill that needs to pass or else the entire federal government will grind to a halt.

Think about that kind of power. If a financial institution has become so big and so powerful that it can hold the entire country hostage. That alone is reason enough to break them up.

Enough is enough.

Enough is enough with Wall Street insiders getting key position after key position and the kind of cronyism that we have seen in the executive branch. Enough is enough with Citigroup passing 11th hour deregulatory provisions that nobody takes ownership over but everybody will come to regret. Enough is enough

Washington already works really well for the billionaires and the big corporations and the lawyers and the lobbyists.

But what about the families who lost their homes or their jobs or their retirement savings the last time Citigroup bet big on derivatives and lost? What about the families who are living paycheck to paycheck and saw their tax dollars go to bail out Citi just 6 years ago?

We were sent here to fight for those families. It is time, it is past time, for Washington to start working for them!
