From the land of career criminal Joe “not competent to stand trial” Biden it’s time for another current events roundup courtesy of Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog.
CONGRESS: THE CIA INTERFERED WITH THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND AIDED THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN. Tell us something we didn’t already know.
FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION RECORDS REVEAL THAT THE DEMOCRAT NATIONAL COMMITTEE HAS FUNNELED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO LAW FIRMS INVOLVED IN PERSECUTING OPPOSITION LEADER TRUMP. We have become the kind of country so many of our grandparents fled from.
ANTI-TRUMP PERSECUTOR JACK SMITH ADMITS TO EVEN MORE GOVERNMENT TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE AT MAR-A-LAGO. Jack Smith, looking nothing at all like a stalker and rapist, leads what may be the most corrupt and tainted “prosecution” in history.
CNN IMPLEMENTING A 1-2 MINUTE DELAY FOR TONIGHT’S PRESIDENTIAL “DEBATE.” An additional way for them to prop up Joe Biden by deciding what President Trump is allowed to say.
CNN’S PRESIDENTIAL “DEBATE” HOSTS FOR TONIGHT HAVE HISTORY OF COMPARING TRUMP TO HITLER, PLUS MORE. More HERE. I have no idea why President Trump and his people were stupid enough to okay the conditions Biden demanded for this. These days presidential debates – even in more sedate times – have become virtually meaningless. No matter what happens, both sides claim that their candidate won and that the other side lied.

FEBRUARY 1st – At Drake’s Farm near Metuchen, New Jersey. In reaction to British losses throughout January as part of what some have called the Forage War, British General William Erskine sought to lure American forces into a trap.
AUGUST 1919 RETURN – From January of 1910 to July of 1917, James Larkin Pearson’s monthly Fool-Killer had been published, with his revival of the violent folk figure doing his ages-old job of bashing political and societal fools. In April 1917 America entered World War One and by July Pearson felt that a unified front for wartime was appropriate.
In August of 1919, nine months after the end of the war, Pearson changed the name back to The Fool-Killer and resumed the hard-hitting political satire. That month’s targeted fools included:
LEADSLINGERS BLACK FLAG RUM – This is a terrific spiced rum that I find much better than Captain Morgan and other brands. It’s only 80 proof, so for Balladeer’s Blog regulars who prefer stronger rums read below. 


THE SWAMP FOX (1959-1961) – With the 4th of July fast approaching, it’s past time for a seasonal post. The Swamp Fox is a piece of Forgotten Television that ran sporadically on Walt Disney’s programs. Eight episodes were produced over two years with Leslie Nielsen in the lead role and each one filled a 1-hour time slot.
Marion and his men knew the South Carolina swamplands like the proverbial backs of their hands and could strike the British then disappear deep into the swamps, foiling any pursuit. Obviously, as a television production The Swamp Fox featured a very romanticized version of Marion and his escapades.
TELEVISION SPY (1939) – I’ve been reminiscing recently, what with Balladeer’s Blog’s 14th Anniversary just having passed a few days ago. I was reflecting on my long-ago review of the hilariously bad 1935 movie Murder by Television, which starred Bela Lugosi in a dual role. 


FEVER DREAM – From State Farm Arena in Georgia came this game between the INDIANA FEVER (7-10) and their hosts the ATLANTA DREAM (6-8).
BATTLE IN SIN CITY – The LAS VEGAS ACES (8-6) welcomed the CONNECTICUT SUN (13-2) to Michelob Ultra Arena.
This weekend’s escapist, light-hearted superhero post from Balladeer’s Blog will look at some of the stories Marvel Comics created around the licensed I.P. of Micronauts toys.
BARON KARZA – The evil, black-armored Baron Karza was a very impressive villain, despite being one of the most blatant Darth Vader ripoffs this side of Japan’s Swords of the Space Ark movies.
SPACE GLIDER ARCTURUS RANN – The leader of the Micronauts. Rann was the very first Micronaut (the Microverse’s version of Astronauts), who was placed in suspended animation and sent out in a spaceship called The Endeavor on a 1,000-year mission of exploration throughout the Microverse.
