Russ Solomon Passed Away!

Russ Solomon passed away.
Tower Records was an iconic music company founded by Russ Solomon in the 1960s. He turned his local record store into a business that spawns across the United States.

He passed away last weekend.

He passed away at the age of 92.

Solomon started his record store business in Sacramento and then decided to branch it out to the Bay area.

He began Tower Records in San Francisco out of a 5,000-square-foot storefront. He turned a profit and decided to expand in Los Angeles.

For years, Tower Records was the spot where you could find rare albums, hot releases and the newest CDs.

It was around 2006, when Tower Records had experienced turmoil. After Walmart, Best Buy and F.Y.E. took control of the music retail business, Tower Records took a nosedive.

The company had filed for bankruptcy and liquidation. The company went out of business and left a legacy.

Solomon was not deterred. He returned back to his roots. He opened up store in his old business. He gave up on the business after three years. He decided to retire to the life of art and volunteer work.

According to the Sacramento Bee, Solomon died while drinking whiskey and watching the Academy Awards after just commented negatively on someone's at the ceremonies' fashion choice.

Ushered Out!

Usher and his wife Grace Miguel split.

Usher's brief marriage Grace Miguel is over.

The two announced a separation. The R&B star faces a #MeToo moment after three women came forth with allegations that he knowingly spread herpes.

Kind of ironic for the iconic star who pretty much lived a squeaky clean image.

Miguel was Usher's personal manager and tour planner.

Usher is also leaving Los Angeles. He put the house he and Grace shared on the market.

The singer had faced the wrath of a fan who accused him of having unprotected sex knowing he had a dangerous disease.

Usher was then married to Tameka Foster who is the mother of two of his children.

Usher's wife is cougar. I didn't know that she was 10 years older than Usher.

She still looks pretty damn hot for a 40 something model and business mogul.

Usher Raymond III, is a singer, producer, actor, dancer, model and business mogul. He is signed to Epic Records and is a protege of Jermanie Durpi, the founder of So So Def.


It's Looking Pretty Stormy!

Stormy is suing the Donald.
The non disclosure agreement was broken and now Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels is spilling tea.

She is suing Donald J. Trump for not signing the hush agreement.

She and her attorney filed it in Los Angeles Superior Court. The lawsuit specifically Trump and his personal attorney Michael Cohen have not signed the NDA regarding an affair that happened in 2006.

Trump allegedly cheated on Melania when she was pregnant with Barron. Daniels disclosed the affair during the campaign and the Trump team paid her off to keep her from being an October Surprise.

This is one of the three women who said Trump had an affair with it. He also has 24 accusers who said sexual abuse and discrimination.
Stormy Daniels and Jimmy Kimmel and their display puppets. 

Cohen was pretty pissed Trump stiffed him on that $130,000 he personally paid to her under an alias.

He pretty much told the junk food media that a payment to this woman happened.

Daniels who went to Jimmy Kimmel was trying her hardest to not spill the beans. But she did somewhat give hints to what happened.

Drunk Dial!

Sam Nunberg is drunk dialing. Former Trump campaign adviser under fire.
The real Russia collusion is Hillary Clinton's payment of a dossier that said that Donald J. Trump hired two hookers that peed on his bed. That phony fake Steele dossier. This is the word vomit of Sean "Softball" Hannity, the country's most annoying and condescending agitator in the junk food media.


The right wing is bonkers. Trump is under fire and the right rather you speak about Clinton.

The junk food media was talking about the interviews with former Trump campaign adviser Sam Nunberg.
Roger Stone is up to his old tricks again.
Nunberg spilled tea and now the infamous Republican trickster Roger Stone is calling him and the junk food media out.

Just for the record, I chose to ignore it.

Until now.



Nunberg said that he will avoid Robert Mueller and the investigation. That raised eyebrows.

Until now. He said that he will cooperate with the investigation.

Roger Stone who is banned from social media. He had decided to defend his talk with the alleged Russian leaker Guccifer 2.O and Julian Assange.

Gary Cohn Fired Out The Cannon!

When it came to tariffs, Gary Cohn didn't want to ride with Trump. So Trump dropped his ass off.
Donald J. Trump's top economic adviser Gary Cohn is out. This comes as no surprise, that Trump's threats to start a trade war angered Cohn. Trump didn't see eye to eye with Cohn. So he fired him out the cannon.

However many pointed out that Cohn wasn't able to leave the White House after Trump made numerous remarks involving racial matters.

Cohn was not happy with Trump during last year's infamous Charlottesville riots. A white extremist murdered Heather Heyer and the inept leader said the violence was started from both sides and some of the pro-white protesters were "very fine people."

Cohn said that Trump was wrong for saying that.

It took Trump's threats to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum to rile Cohen up.

Trump has seen a whole lot of people depart during his first year in office.

It seems to be an ongoing issue with the departure of Cohn.

Cohn was a top level banking executive at Goldman Sachs.

The departure will hurt the stock market.

Also breaking was the idiot Kellyanne Conway. She was in violation of the Hatch act.

She was found in violation of the Hatch Act by promoting failed pedophile Roy Moore on national television. As a federal employee, Conway should have stayed away from outright endorsing a candidate.

Conway also broke the rules when she promoted Ivanka Trump's clothing line.

Trump is also prepared to hire John Bolton to replace H.R. McMaster, the current National Security Adviser. The move sparks concern among Republicans and Democrats.

Bolton, a recess appointed former U.N. ambassador is often saying rhetoric that comes off as racist and he is war hungry.

Cohn leaving also shows that Trump's best people aren't really the best.

Beto O'Rourke: Ted Cruz, Don't Expect An Easy Ride!

Beto O'Rourke vows to visit each county of Texas in his bid to win the U.S. senator Ted Cruz's seat.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-TX) has a challenge ahead of him. How can he beat a Republican in the state of Texas?

The El Paso lawmaker is hoping Texans would oust the controversial Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).

So far, I believe that Texas is considered SAFE for the Republicans. However, the fundraising for the Democrat is high and it's outpaced Cruz who is hoping that he can win a second term.

Democrats have an early advantage in early voting this primary session and it has spooked Republicans.

With issues like gun violence on the front lines, Cruz and Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) both expressed "thoughts and prayers" to the victims of Parkland, Florida, Sutherland Springs, Las Vegas, and every other mass shooting since. They continue have offered nothing but more loose gun laws and taken millions from the NRA.
A challenge ahead for Ted Cruz.
O'Rouke had made it clear that he wants no lobbyist money or campaign funds from shadowy groups. He also is encouraging that voters request paper ballots and easy access to the polls.

Cruz who became a darling of the Tea Party movement in 2012 won the election. Since he became a senator, he spent most of his time grandstanding and also getting on Barack Obama's nerves. He was a big feature on Fox News and even tried and failed running for president.

He was the first Republican in the 21st Century to have picked a running mate while running for the nomination. He picked failed candidate Carly Fiorina as his running mate and their bid as a team lasted only seven days.

He truly is an embarrassment to the state of Texas. If Beto can turn this into a race, I'll be willing to change my prediction.

Thad Cochran Out!

Mississippi Republican senator Thad Cochran leaves another potential pickup for Democrat.
Another Republican is planning on a hasty exit. This is Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) and he is citing his failing health.

"I intend to fulfill my responsibilities and commitments to the people of Mississippi and the Senate through the completion of the 2018 appropriations cycle, after which I will formally retire from the U.S. Senate."

At least he, Sens. Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Bob Corker (R-TN), Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and John McCain (R-AZ) can enjoy their government paid health insurance.

The old fart who managed to survive a vicious primary fight back in 2014 says he is out on April 1. That puts it squarely on Easter.

Now a special election is going to be held for the remaining term.

Cochran has been a supporter of Donald J. Trump and supported his tax law, the attempts at repealing the AffordableCare Act.

Cochran also faced a challenger who was crazy as shit.

Chris McDaniel, a far right former state representative is going to run for the seat.

Hopefully, the Democrats can line up a candidate capable of turning a Republican stronghold of Mississippi blue.

I have faith in the Democrats.

With Trump's dismal ratings and his ongoing self inflicted wounds, the chances of a Blue Wave could be happening.

Have patience.

Whoever wins the seat will serve the remainder of his term until election 2020.

Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) is running for reelection and has a potential to be usurped as well.
