Start the week with this current events roundup courtesy of Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog.
UNDER PRESIDENT TRUMP’S POLICIES WAGES ARE RISING FASTER THAN INFLATION. The greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.
EVEN UNHINGED VLAD PUTIN ADMITS THAT TRUMP IS BRINGING AN END TO THE WAR BETWEEN RUSSIA AND UKRAINE. President Trump’s comments HERE.
IN PORTLAND, THE DEMOCRATS’ BROWNSHIRTS CALLED ANTIFA COMMIT ASSAULTS AND MAKE THREATS. Same ol’ same ol’ for the party of endless violence.
INDICTMENT COMES DOWN ON THE TEXAS WOMAN FOR ATTEMPTED ARSON AT REPUBLICAN PARTY OFFICE. The Democrat war on the rest of the country continues.
SENATOR TUBERVILLE POINTS OUT THAT THE DEMOCRATS DEIFY (AS IN WORSHIP) VIOLENCE. Their adoration of Luigi Mangione is just one example of many.
HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES TECH COORDINATOR FURTHER EXPLAINS HOW PRESIDENT TRUMP’S MOVES CAN SAVE PEOPLE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON PRESCRIPTION DRUG COSTS. Did someone call Trump the greatest president for the working class and the poor during their lifetime? Continue reading
THE HUNTRESS (2000-2001) – This Forgotten Television series is appropriate for Mother’s Day. Annette O’Toole and Jordana Spiro starred in what was basically a continuation of the Steve McQueen movie The Hunter. McQueen depicted the real-life bounty hunter Ralph “Papa” Thorson. 
This actually happened and was covered in the True Crime book Deadly Games, written by Christopher Keane, who had also written The Hunter, on which the Steve McQueen film was based. 
THE HUNTRESS – This telefilm aired March 7th, 2000 with Annette O’Toole portraying Dottie Thorson and Aleksa Paladino playing Brandi Thorson. Paladino would be replaced by Jordana Spiro for the subsequent series. Craig T. Nelson played Ralph Thorson before his murder. 
Balladeer’s Blog is the site for Independent voters, but there is no denying that in recent years it’s been the Democrats who have been dividing the nation with their hatred and violence. Here in 2020 Democrats have expanded their violence – including killing more and more frequently – to the level of an all-out war on the rest of us. 
DEMOCRATS CONTINUE THEIR WAR ON THE POLICE – Patrick Lynch, head of the largest Police Union in the U.S. pulled no punches in the way that Democrats have turned the streets into battle zones.

SALTARELLA 
THE BRAIN (1962) – Freddie Francis directed this black & white film, which was the third movie adaptation of Curt Siodmak’s science fiction novel Donovan’s Brain. The characters’ names were changed and the sci fi elements were mixed with detective story elements this time around. 
Corrie and Shears discover that Max Holt is the only one of the airplane passengers still clinging to life, but just barely, and has no hope of survival. Corrie browbeats Shears into helping him get Holt’s body back to their lab, where they remove his brain to see how long they can keep it alive in one of their fish aquarium containers filled with life-preserving fluids and equipment.
THE FOURTEEN-YEAR POKER GAME – This legendary poker game in all likelihood never really happened but has come to embody the early 20th Century wildness of Thurmond, WV. During America’s coal boom Thurmond attracted the wealthy including mine and railroad tycoons. It became such a hub of gambling, drinking, prostitution and partying that it’s been called the Las Vegas of its era. 
A RECIPE FOR SEDUCTION (2020) – This 15-minute short was put together by KFC and Lifetime Television in what deserves to be recognized for the intentional comedy that it is! Yes, it would be even funnier if it wasn’t trying to be, but too many reviewers apparently miss the point. 
MARIO LOPEZ plays a hunkified COLONEL HARLAN SANDERS of KFC fame. One look at the way he’s made up should have alerted grumpy critics to the fact that this thing is not to be taken seriously! Hell, his makeup is just a few adjustments away from making him a hunkified Orville Redenbacher, but we’ll never get to see THAT parody because of how badly misunderstood A Recipe for Seduction was. 
COMMAND aka CAVALRY COMMAND – In the post-Civil War American southwest a cavalry captain and his young lieutenant clash over issues of command. Meanwhile, a conflict with Native Americans rages. Starring Everett Sloane and Ben Cooper.
