Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog offers up another current events roundup.
DEMOCRAT TERRORISM MOVES BEYOND TESLA OWNERS AND DEALERSHIPS TO ARSON AGAINST POLITICAL OPPONENTS’ OFFICES. More HERE. “Silence is consent” the Democrat fascists always tell us and their refusal to condemn this type of violence is deafening. Video HERE.
UNHINGED WAR CRIMINAL VLAD PUTIN FAFO – PRESIDENT TRUMP MOVES AGAINST HIM WITH TARIFFS AND MORE SANCTIONS. More HERE.
He added “I think the Democratic Party needs to use this moment of having been repudiated at the national level to figure out a creative and imaginative agenda for the 21st century that’s going to lift the fortunes of working people and the middle class all across this country.”
AUTO UNION CHIEF SETS DEMOCRATS STRAIGHT ABOUT TRUMP TARIFF BENEFITS. More HERE.
TRUMP CONTINUES CLEANING UP CORRUPTION AT THE DOJ. The Great Reformer soldiers on.
PRESIDENT TRUMP TAKES ON THE DEMOCRAT GRAFT FUNNELING OPERATIONS.
CONGRESS ACTING TO REIN IN THE DISTRICT JUDGES WHO ARE DRASTICALLY OVERREACHING. More HERE. And HERE. I will say again, these showboating, self-aggrandizing, partisan hacks need reined in for the sake of whoever is president from whichever political party.
SCHLICHTER CALLS IT RIGHT ON TRUMP’S IMPACT.
NEARLY EVERY JUDGE SHOWBOATING AGAINST TRUMP HAS A FAMILY MEMBER BEING PAID BY A DEMOCRAT NGO. More HERE. And HERE. Partisan Democrat judges are clearly destroying the long-lasting principle of judges recusing themselves from cases in which they or their families have a vested interest.
USAID SHUTTING DOWN AFTER TRUMP PREVAILS. More HERE. And HERE. Continue reading
IN THE MIDDLE 1980s/ WAY DOWN ON LEVEL 31 …
SERIAL: ATOM MAN VS SUPERMAN (1950) – Kirk Alyn starred as Superman with Lyle Talbot as his archenemy Lex Luthor. Especially laughable are the bits when Superman “flies” – an effect achieved by switching from live footage of Kirk Alyn to INSERTED CARTOON FOOTAGE of Superman flying. Think of the ‘Toons in Roger Rabbit interacting with the live characters & backgrounds and you have the idea. 
THE MOVIE: It! The Terror from Beyond Space is one of the consummate low budget schlockers of the 1950s. It embodies the “so bad it’s good” aesthetic that so many Movie Host shows have always reveled in. 
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME – The teams in this title tussle were the NOVA SOUTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY SHARKS and the CAL STATE AT DOMINGUEZ HILLS TOROS. Come Halftime the Toros had their opponents worried, leading them 42-38, but from there the Sharks came back to win the game 74-73. M.J. Iraldi’s 27 points led NSU in this Instant Classic. 
FIRST SEMIFINAL – The TRINITY (CT) BANTAMS faced the WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY CARDINALS. The Bantams had eked out a 33-31 edge at the Half. After the break Trinity College managed a bit more separation from the Cardinals for a 73-69 victory. Jarrel Okorougo led the Bantams with a Double Double of 15 points and 10 rebounds, while teammate Drew Lazarre logged a Double Double of his own with 11 points and 12 rebounds. 
MISS AMERICA
That night, during a violent thunderstorm, the fascinated Madeline snuck back to the laboratory to more closely examine the equipment. At one point a lightning bolt struck the lab and Madeline, destroying the equipment but granting her superpowers. Adopting the nom de guerre Miss America, she donned a costume and went into action.
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME – The last two teams standing in this tournament were the COLLEGE OF IDAHO COYOTES and the OKLAHOMA WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY EAGLES. The Coyotes eliminated all the suspense early on, leading Oklahoma Wesleyan 49-29 by Halftime. After the break the College of Idaho left the Eagles further behind for a 93-65 win. Samaje Morgan led the Yotes with 28 points. 
FINAL FOUR: FIRST BERTH – The CAL STATE AT DOMINGUEZ HILLS TOROS took the court against the WEST LIBERTY UNIVERSITY HILLTOPPERS. This was a tale of two Halves as the Hilltoppers were up 50-39 at the midpoint, following which the Toros rallied to win the game 86-84. Twenty-two points from David Cheatom led the way for CSU-Dominguez Hills. 
With a new year underway – 2017 C.E. – Balladeer’s Blog takes a look at some past predictions by “psychics” (LMAO) that turned out to be wildly off the mark.
— Private automobiles would be banned … by 1990. 
DAS BLAUE PALAIS (1972-1974) – This German science fiction series is criminally neglected. The title building is where scientists led by Louis Palm (Silvano Tranquilli) conduct interdisciplinary research and investigate unusual phenomena. 
Additional regulars included Lyne Chardonnet as Yvonne Boucher, Jean-Henri Chambois as Professor Manzini, Luminata Iacobescu as Sibilla Jacopescu and Dieter Laser as Enrico Polazzo. Rainer Erler wrote and directed every installment. 
ONE: THE GENIUS (October 15th, 1974) – The international group of scientists at the Blue Palace are pursuing their usual boundary-pushing research while periodically debating the ethics of various projects. 
MARIE WALCAMP (1894-1936) – Like her fellow silent film icons 
TEMPEST CODY – Marie was already getting above the title billing by the time her two-reel Tempest Cody western shorts came along in 1919. Tempest was a hard-riding, two-fisted, straight-shooting woman of the old west who was always on the side of right.
