Jessica Walter, the award-winning actress whose career spanned six decades, passed away in her sleep at home in New York City on Wednesday, March 24. She was 80.
Walter’s career included everything from a standout turn in Clint Eastwood’s directorial debut, Play Misty for Me, to The Flamingo Kid and her Emmy-nominated turns on Trapper John M..D. and Streets of San Francisco. For her performance as Lucille Bluth in Arrested Development, Walter earned yet another Emmy nomination and two SAG nominations.

Walter won an Emmy starring in Amy Prentiss, an Ironside spinoff in the mid-1970s about a young San Francisco police detective. She also voiced Malory Archer on FXX’s animated series Archer.
Walter served as 2nd National Vice President of the Screen Actors Guild, and was an elected member of the SAG Board of Directors for over a decade.
As news of her passing spread, Walter’s Arrested co-stars and many others began to weigh in, with co-star David Cross calling her “an absolutely brilliant actress and amazing talent.” See those tributes here.
Walter began her career in her hometown of New York City where she appeared in numerous Broadway productions including Advise and Consent, Neil Simon’s Rumors, A Severed Head, Nightlife and Photo Finish, for which she earned the Clarence Derwent Award for Most Promising Newcomer.
Also on stage, Walter worked at New York’s Playwright’s Horizons and the Los Angeles Theater Center, where she starred in Tartuffe opposite the late Ron Leibman, her Emmy- and Tony-winning husband. She also starred in the Broadway revival of Anything Goes, which picked up several Tony Awards.
Walter is survived by daughter Brooke Bowman, who is SVP Drama Programming at Fox Entertainment, and grandson Micah Heymann.
Bowman said in a statement: “It is with a heavy heart that I confirm the passing of my beloved mom Jessica. A working actor for over six decades, her greatest pleasure was bringing joy to others through her storytelling both on screen and off. While her legacy will live on through her body of work, she will also be remembered by many for her wit, class and overall joie de vivre.”

You notice that Black people are being treated with lengthy bids in the iron college for minor crimes while white insurrectionists are begging to be released to go on vacation in Mexico.
Let's use that Midland, Texas flower shop worker who participated in the Jan. 6 insurrection which lead to five people killed, hundreds of people injured and millions of dollars of damages. These folks were treated with respect and dignity whereas Black people celebrating spring break in Florida are being arrested and threatened with lengthy bids in the iron college.
It fucking annoys me that white people are treated much differently than Blacks when they're arrested.
An Indiana man who recently moved to Florida is facing a five year bid for playing his music too loud.
The city of Miami Beach issued a curfew to curb the unruly behavior and the possibility of spreading the coronavirus. The coronavirus has been out of control in Florida and many expect the state to spark another outbreak.
The issues in South Beach include people jumping on vehicles, others shattering glass, vandalizing property, trespassing, blocking roadways and smoking weed (marijuana) in public.
Yet the few arrest reports from Sunday night show the law singled out one black man for the whole ordeal. They decided to charge Javon Washington, 30 known as Jae Murder for inciting a riot.
Washington who lived in Hammond. Indiana is a Chicago-based entertainer found the arrest to be pretty petty to say at least.
They confiscated his speaker, handcuffed him, hauled him away and hit him with a handful of charges: violating a noise ordinance but also four felonies -- resisting arrest without violence, breaching the peace, violating curfew and inciting a riot. The inciting a riot is a third degree felony which could place him in the iron college for five years.
He said it was a small speaker, a $20 dollar flea market used device.
Miami Beach issued a mandatory off the streets curfew the second night of an unruly spring break.
"Literally, he was playing music and they arrested him," the man, who would only give his first name of Kevin, said.
Asked to explain what Washington did to urge people to jump on cars, trespass and fuel the mayhem, Miami Beach Police spokesman Ernesto Rodriguez said the arrest form speaks for itself. The closest Washington's arrest form comes to an explanation is when police say that "officers observed the defendant enticing the crowd with music from speakers."
Miami Beach police have made more than 1,000 arrests since spring break throngs began spilling into the city in early February, a reaction from law enforcement and city political leadership that some Black leaders have criticized as excessive. But Washington's music-driven charges stand out in the dozens of rolling street parties and clashes in the city over the last few months.
It came on the second night of the curfew and only a few hours after city commissioners gathered for an emergency meeting following a Saturday night of chaos on South Beach that again put one of the world's most popular tourist meccas under an unwanted international spotlight.
In early February, the city already had implemented an emergency order that criminalizes some items that most other times are part of the typical tourist kit: backpacks, coolers and speakers. They're all banned on the beach east of Ocean Drive. It's an order that is usually enforced only during "high impact" weekends like spring break and Memorial Day and that draw mostly young, mostly Black crowds.
Only one other person was charged with inciting a riot on Sunday night. That arrest came an hour later and several blocks east inside the Entertainment District, which had been placed under the curfew. According to the arrest report, it had nothing to do with police concerns about music and a large crowd was not involved.
Quamier Nantambu Johnson, 25, was charged after police said he and two friends became abusive and aggressive towards two Miami Gardens police officers helping Beach police enforce the curfew near Collins Avenue and Ninth Street just before 10:30 p.m. Sunday.
According to his arrest report, as Johnson and two friends passed by, he cursed and insulted an officer. When the officer told him to tamp it down and to leave the area because it was after curfew, police said Johnson threatened to harm the officer. Johnson was eventually taken into custody and charged with threatening the officer, resisting without violence, weed possession and inciting a riot.
Johnson, who as of Friday had been released from jail, could not be reached for comment.
Both incitement arrests came as police were pressed into more hands-on action by city leaders who viewed videotape of the bedlam that broke out Saturday, a night earlier, with cops firing pepper balls into crowds that had overturned tables at restaurants and damaged cars and had fights. Even the iconic Clevelander South Beach bar and hotel was forced to shut down.
This year's spring break has generated plenty of controversy and finger-pointing about what or who is to blame for crowd-control problems — from cheap airfare and pandemic boredom bringing a flood of tourists, to police tactics and city policies that some critics see as biased against Black visitors, to the come-on-down-to-Florida message of Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Earlier this week, Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber — who has called for a total reform of the city's Entertainment District — said the measures were necessary for public safety.
Florida is open for business.
"There has been gun play, open brawling and other hazards. And all that in the midst of a pandemic where mask usage and physical distancing seems like an afterthought, if that," Gelber said in a video message. "So we have to implement measures we would prefer not to deploy, but must."
Stephen Hunter Johnson, chair of Miami-Dade County's Black Affairs Advisory Board, believes one group is getting too much of the blame.
"There's an undertone in that somehow all Black people are responsible for the actions of a few people who happen to be Black," Johnson said. "I just don't want the unnecessary scapegoating of Black people."
For others, like Washington, the concern is personal — that the pressure on police to do something about wild weekends produced excessive charges that could cost them work or even wind up putting them in prison.
Washington, for one thing, was charged with breaking curfew — even though the street corner where police took him into custody was west of the Entertainment District boundaries where curfew was imposed. Interim city manager Raul J. Aguila admitted as much but said it was up to the Miami-Dade State Attorney "to determine the prosecution of those charges."
Washington said he moved to Miami from Indiana to further his music career and had gone to South Beach to promote himself and hand out fliers. He acknowledged a past criminal record, saying he had two previous felonies, one a robbery when he was 17 in Chicago.
But now, he said he is scrambling to make a living while pursuing a rap career. He posts his music on SoundCloud like many hopeful artists but said he made his first Miami appearance on stage in December. For now, he said he works multiple jobs, including running food at a Miami restaurant and house painting. An incitement charge, he said, could derail all that. He's already spent several nights in jail from the arrest.
"I don't want the charge on my record," he said. "It would really hurt me a lot."
There was an incident where two men were arrested for drugging and raping a woman.
There was an incident where a man was accused of groping an older woman.
Each of these incidents were reported in the junk food media.

It's over for Sharon Osbourne's hosting duties over at The Talk. After two weeks of discussion, CBS Studios has decided to fire Osbourne out the cannon. Osbourne is the co-founder of the CBS daytime talk show along with actress Sara Gilbert.
The decision came after she made inappropriate remarks in regards to Sheryl Underwood and Duchess Meghan. The allegations of disrespect towards Gilbert as well as former co-hosts Holly Robinson Peete, Julie Chen and Leah Remini also came to light.
The news comes two weeks after controversy over an on-air confrontation between Osbourne and one of her co-hosts, as well as allegations that she had made racist and homophobic remarks about her colleagues in the past.
"The events of the March 10 broadcast were upsetting to everyone involved, including the audience watching at home. As part of our review, we concluded that Sharon's behavior toward her co-hosts during the March 10 episode did not align with our values for a respectful workplace," CBS said in a statement released to CNN. "We also did not find any evidence that CBS executives orchestrated the discussion or blindsided any of the hosts."
CNN has reached out to a representative for Osbourne for comment.
In the episode at the center of the controversy, Osbourne had an intense debate with fellow co-host Sheryl Underwood after the latter questioned Osbourne's support of her longtime friend, Piers Morgan.
Morgan left his job on ITV's "Good Morning Britain" after allegations that negative comments he made following Prince Harry and Meghan's interview with media mogul Oprah Winfrey were rooted in racism.
Osbourne demanded Underwood present instances of when Morgan had been racist and was visibly upset during the exchange.
Osbourne later tweeted an apology, saying she "panicked," "felt blindsided" and then "got defensive" during her conversation with Underwood.
Following the episode, CBS announced an internal review would take place and the show went on a temporary production hiatus.
Major shakeup on The Talk. Sharon Osbourne finds the end of her time at the longtime daytime show.
Shortly thereafter, in a story written by journalist Yashar Ali, former "Talk" co-host Leah Remini, who spoke on the record in the piece, and a number of unnamed sources, accused Osbourne of using racist and homophobic language in the past when speaking about her colleagues.
CNN did not independently verify the claims, but a spokesperson for Remini confirmed the accuracy of her statements, as reported by Ali to CNN and declined further comment.
Osbourne's spokesperson Howard Bragman disputed the allegations.
"The only thing worse than a disgruntled former employee is a disgruntled former talk show host," he said in a statement to CNN. "For 11 years Sharon has been kind, collegial and friendly with her hosts as evidenced by throwing them parties, inviting them to her home in the UK and other gestures of kindness too many to name. Sharon is disappointed but unfazed and hardly surprised by the lies, the recasting of history and the bitterness coming out at this moment."
Before the allegations went public, Osbourne spoke to "Entertainment Tonight" and insisted she is not racist. She also said she had attempted to apologize to Underwood, whom she considered a friend, to no avail.
"I am not a racist and if you can't have a go at your friend who happens to be Black, does that make me racist because I said certain things to my friend, but I said them on camera?" Osbourne said. "I will keep on apologizing to Sheryl, even if I decide not to go back, I will still keep apologizing to Sheryl."
Osbourne was the only remaining original cast member of "The Talk," which debuted in 2010.
In its statement Friday, CBS also said: "During this week's hiatus, we are coordinating workshops, listening sessions and training about equity, inclusion and cultural awareness for the hosts, producers and crew. Going forward, we are identifying plans to enhance the producing staff and producing procedures to better serve the hosts, the production and, ultimately, our viewers."

The 100 day challenge by President Joe Biden is being ignored by the white nationalist Republican governors. Over 20 states all led by Republican governors are deciding to end their mask mandates despite the five new variants of the coronavirus.
Yes.... We're all getting tired of wearing masks in public and in places of businesses. The coronavirus is not going away anytime soon. However, if we take this seriously, we could finally end the pandemic.
Indiana, West Virginia, Arizona, Iowa, North Dakota, South Carolina, Wyoming, Alabama, Oklahoma, Utah, Montana, Connecticut and Arkansas are moving forward to ending their mask mandates.
The white nationalist Republican governors and one Democrat are defying the Centers for Disease Control's advice on how to safely conduct the coronavirus pandemic.
The risk is too great for us to be 100% back to normal. I would understand that we can be at 50% or 60% but just abandoning the mask mandate and social distancing is just plain stupid.
Folks, the coronavirus has killed over 550,000 Americans. We're heading into a populations equal of Milwaukee, Baltimore, Atlanta, Tampa and Fresno.
I'm tired of wearing the face mask too but damn I'm not risking my health or my family's health because of politics.
The coronavirus hasn't went away. It's still here and Republicans continue to make it more difficult to stop it because of their stupid principles.
Many lawmakers in the Republican House and Senate will likely get vaccinated. They'll do it when there's no cameras present. I mean Washed Up 45 and Melania Trump got the vaccine shots despite the former saying that he used hydroxychloroquine (which was proven to be a lie). The former president used Regeneron's monoclonal, dexamethasone and remdesivir (when he got it in October).
President Joe Biden is urging Americans to take the vaccine to prevent the spread.
Republicans don't trust him. They trust the noise of Washed Up 45, Tucker Carlson, Mark Levin, the dead corpse of Rush Limbaugh and Sean "Softball" Hannity.
The vaccine holdouts makes it harder for us to get pass this pandemic.
Former presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama have confirmed to Biden that they will pledge assistance to helping Americans get vaccinated.
Please do your part and maintain social distancing and facial masks. Save a life, please!

Dominion Voting Systems is officially suing Fox News as a part of its $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit.
This lawsuit includes the following characters: Mike Lindell,the My Pillow Guy, Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, L. Lin Wood and Michael Flynn, Sr.
Washed Up 45's campaign has relentlessly spread misinformation about the election. It led to the company getting death threats. It also played a huge role in the insurrection on Jan. 6.
So on Friday, Dominion filed a federal lawsuit against Fox, arguing the far-right cable network falsely claimed in an effort boost ratings that the voting company had rigged the 2020 elections.
It's the first defamation suit filed against a media outlet by the voting company, which was a target of misleading, false and bizarre claims spread by Washed Up 45 and his cronies in the aftermath of his lost ot Joe Biden. Those claims helped spur the insurrection which led to the U.S. Capitol being under siege. The siege led to Washed Up 45 being impeached for the second time.
Dominion argues that Fox amplified inaccurate assertions that Dominion altered votes, "sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes, severely injuring Dominion in the process."
"The truth matters. Lies have consequences,: the lawsuit states. "Fox sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes, severely injuring Dominion in the process. If this case does not rise to the level of defamation by a broadcaster then nothing does."
Even before Dominion's lawsuit on Friday, Fox News had already filed four motions to dismiss other legal action against its coverage. And anchor Eric Shawn interviewed a Dominion spokesperson on air in November.
"Fox News Media is proud of our 2020 election coverage, which stands in the highest tradition of American journalism, and we will vigorously defend against this baseless lawsuit in court," it said in a statement on Friday.
There was no known widespread fraud in the 2020 election, a fact that a range of election officials across the country — and even Washed Up 45’s attorney general, William Barr — have confirmed. Republican governors in Arizona and Georgia, key battleground states crucial to Biden’s victory, also vouched for the integrity of the elections in their states. Nearly all the legal challenges from Washed Up 45 and his allies were dismissed by judges, including two tossed by the Supreme Court, which has three of his nominated justices.
Still, some Fox News employees elevated false charges that Dominion had changed votes through algorithms in its voting machines that had been created in Venezuela to rig elections for the late dictator Hugo Chavez. On-air personalities brought on Washed Up 45's allies Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani, who spread the claims, and then amplified those claims on Fox News' massive social media platforms.
Dominion said in the lawsuit that it tried repeatedly to set the record straight but was ignored by Fox News.
Sean "Softball" Hannity is toxic.
The company argues that Fox News, a network that features several far-right personalities, pushed the false claims to explain away the former president’s loss. The cable giant lost viewers after the election and was seen by Washed Up 45 and some supporters as not being supportive enough of the Republican.
Attorneys for Dominion said Fox News' behavior differs greatly from that of other media outlets that reported on the claims.
"This was a conscious, knowing business decision to endorse and repeat and broadcast these lies in order to keep its viewership," said attorney Justin Nelson, of Susman Godfrey.
Though Dominion serves 28 states, until the 2020 election it had been largely unknown outside the election community. It is now widely targeted in conservative circles, seen by millions of people as one of the main villains in a fictional tale in which Democrats nationwide conspired to steal votes from Washed Up 45, the lawsuit said.
Dominion’s employees, from its software engineers to its founder, have been harassed. Some received death threats. And the company has suffered “enormous and irreparable economic harm,” lawyers said.
One employee, Eric Coomer, told the AP he had to go into hiding over death threats because of the false claims. He has sued the 2020 campaign, conservative media columnists and conservative media outlets Newsmax and One America News Network.
Dominion has also sued Giuliani, Powell and the CEO of Minnesota-based MyPillow over the claims. A rival technology company, Smartmatic USA, also sued Fox News over election claims for a similar sum of money. Unlike Dominion, Smartmatic’s participation in the 2020 election was restricted to Los Angeles County.
Dominion lawyers said they have not yet filed lawsuits against specific media personalities at Fox News but the door remains open. Some at Fox News knew the claims were false but their comments were drowned out, lawyers said.
“The buck stops with Fox on this,” attorney Stephen Shackelford said. “Fox chose to put this on all of its many platforms. They rebroadcast, republished it on social media and other places.”
The suit was filed in Delaware, where both companies are incorporated, though Fox News is headquartered in New York and Dominion is based in Denver.

It appears we're going through another Coffeegate "scandal."
The loyal opposition to President Joe Biden is coming at the Vice President, Kamala Harris with some of the most asinine topics. They're worked up over the vice president not saluting the military.
Harris is a civilian and public servant who works under the Biden administration. Her role is to be the ambassador on behalf of the president. She is the President of the Senate, who cast deciding votes for either the Democrats or Republicans when there's a tie.
When she is acting on behalf of the president, she does not (I repeat) does not have to salute the military.
But Fox News made such a stink about it. It led to a brief controversy and also Fox News not being questioned by the president on Thursday.
DISGRACEFUL: @VP Kamala Harris refuses to salute the honor guard at the steps of the aircraft. It is a clear demonstration of her dislike for those in uniform, both law-enforcement and military. pic.twitter.com/7QFHzamnt7
Fox published on Tuesday, attacking the vice president for "appearing to break with precedent and failing to salute the honor guard when boarding Air Force Two."
Fox made a point that former Vice President Mike Pence and President Joe Biden, regularly saluted the honor guard.
However, military experts were quick to fact-check the far-right network, pointing out that Harris is not in the chain of command and is therefore not required to salute.
The Commander in Chief returns salutes as a matter of courtesy (a practice started by Reagan), but the VP is a civilian who is not in the chain of command. It would be incorrect for her to salute anyone, and @FoxNews knows this. If other VPs did it, it was incorrect. https://t.co/62tcIOK5c3
Tom Nichols, a professor at the U.S. Naval War College corrected the report, saying it would be "incorrect" for her to salute and saying Fox "knows this."
Sean "Softball" Hannity also picked up the exaggerated angle for his own platform, writing an article titled: "Kamala Harris does not salute members of the military when boarding Air Force Two."
"The VP is not in the chain of command and even the president saluting isn't technically a thing and something adopted relatively recently," Military.com congressional reporter Steve Beynon insisted.

You notice that Republicans and conservative principles are not popular. Matter of fact, no Republican has ever won an election with the poplar vote.
White nationalist Republican governor Brian Kemp vows to keep Georgia in the hands of Republicans and hopes he can win back the good graces of Washed Up 45.
Today, President Joe Biden slammed the decision for the state to pass a voter law that many consider a desperate attempt to create voter suppression.
So on Thursday, Republicans passed a partisan voter law. Kemp signed into law a sweeping Republican-sponsored overhaul of state elections that includes new restrictions on voting by mail and greater legislative control over how elections are run.
Democrats and voting rights groups say the law will disproportionately disenfranchise voters of color. It is one of a wave of GOP-backed election bills introduced in states around the country after former President Donald Trump stoked false claims that fraud led to his 2020 election defeat.
Biden called such GOP efforts "un-American" and "sick" during a news conference Thursday. And a group of voter mobilization groups filed a lawsuit late Thursday in federal court in Atlanta challenging the new law.
The Republican changes to voting law in Georgia follows record-breaking turnout that led to Democratic victories in the presidential contest and two U.S. Senate runoffs in the once reliably red state.
"After the November election last year, I knew, like so many of you, that significant reforms to our state elections were needed," said Kemp, who drew Trump's ire after certifying Biden's victory in Georgia.
Kemp signed the bill less than two hours after it cleared the Georgia General Assembly. The state House approved it 100-75, before the state Senate quickly agreed to House changes, 34-20. Republicans supported it, with Democrats opposed.
At his first news conference, Biden harshly criticized Republican moves to limit voting rights and vowed to do all he could with allies to stop the effort.
"The Republican voters I know find this despicable, Republican voters, the folks outside this White House. I’m not talking about the elected officials. I’m talking about voters," Biden said.
In Georgia, Democratic state Senate Minority Leader Gloria Butler called the efforts by Republicans "voter suppression tactics."
"We are witnessing right now a massive and unabashed assault on voting rights unlike anything we've seen since the Jim Crow era," Butler added.
As Kemp delivered his remarks he was interrupted by a commotion before a livestream of the event cut out.
Park Cannon, a Georgia state lawmaker was arrested after protesting Kemp's signing of this controversial law.
Democratic state Rep. Park Cannon, who is Black, was arrested by Capitol police amid a protest after knocking on the door of the governor's office during his remarks.
Video captured by a bystander shows Cannon, who is handcuffed with her arms behind her back, being forcibly removed from the Capitol by two officers, one on each arm. She says "where are you taking me?" and "stop" as she is taken from the building.
Cannon was charged with felony obstruction of law enforcement, punishable by 1 to 5 years in prison, and with disrupting a session of the General Assembly. She was being held at the Fulton County jail, said an email from a Georgia State Patrol spokesperson, Lieut. W. Mark Riley.
It wasn't immediately known if Cannon had a lawyer who could comment.
The Georgia law requires a photo ID in order to vote absentee by mail, after more than 1.3 million Georgia voters used that option during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also cuts the time people have to request an absentee ballot and limits where ballot drop boxes can be placed and when they can be accessed.
Democratic Rep. Rhonda Burnough said the bill is based on lies told by Republicans after November's election.
"Georgians turned out in record-breaking numbers because they could access the ballot," Burnough said. "Lies upon lies were told about our elections in response, and now this bill is before us built on those same lies."
Republican Rep. Jan Jones said the provisions cutting the time people have to request an absentee ballot are meant to "increase the likelihood of a voter's vote being cast successfully," after concerns were raised about mail ballots not being received in time to be counted.
One of the biggest changes gives the GOP-controlled legislature more control over election administration. That has raised alarms about potential greater partisan influence.
The law replaces the elected secretary of state as the chair of the state election board with a new appointee of the legislature after Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger rebuffed Trump’s attempts to overturn Georgia's election results. It also allows the board to remove and replace county election officials deemed to be underperforming.
That provision is widely seen as something that could be used to target Fulton County, a Democratic stronghold covering most of Atlanta, which came under fire after long lines plagued summertime primary elections.
Republican Rep. Barry Fleming, a driving force in crafting the law, said that provision would only be a "temporary fix, so to speak, that ends and the control is turned back over to the locals after the problems are resolved."
The law also reduces the timeframe in which runoff elections are held, including the amount of early voting for runoffs. And it bars outside groups from handing out food or water to people in line to vote.
The law does not contain some of the more contentious proposals floated by Republicans earlier, including limits on early voting on Sundays, a popular day for Black churchgoers to vote in "souls to the polls" events. It instead mandates two Saturdays of early voting ahead of general elections, when only one had been mandatory, and leaves two Sundays as optional.
A lawsuit filed late Thursday in the U.S. District Court in Atlanta by three groups — New Georgia Project, Black Voters Matter Fund and Rise — challenged key provisions of the new law and said they violated the Voting Rights Act. There was no immediate response from Georgia officials.

The president does his first press conference. The culture warriors are complaining about President Joe Biden not holding an unscripted press conference.
Do people even care if the president holds a press conference?
I believe that the far-right is obsessed with trivial things. It's not like we had a president who was unprepared to address the nation in the wake of a crisis. I mean didn't the last one told us to inject bleach to stop the coronavirus?
So today's press conference will be Biden's first.
After 65 days and lots of whining from the likes of Sean "Softball" Hannity and the ilk of Fox News, Biden will address the issues of in the country.
Biden will tout his American Rescue Plan. He will address the massive COVID-19 relief package being passed by Congress. He will talk about Americans getting vaccinated and wearing masks. He will address the need to establish another pandemic response team to prepare for new variants.
Biden will address the comment about Russia. He called the federation leader Vladimir Putin a killer and vows to investigate the bounties on the American troops, the meddling in the election and the SolarWinds hacking of our federal servers. He will also be getting a stupid question about Putin's challenge for a debate.
Biden will address China and the trade deals. The president had an envoy go to Alaska to meet with the Chinese delegation. The United States have also vowed to keep the Washed Up 45 sanctions on China for stealing data based on the coronavirus vaccines.
Biden will address North Korea. After the reclusive country tested ballistic missiles and continues to produce nuclear reactors, the president will try to seize on it.
Biden will address the unemployment crisis. The president will continue to push for legislation to starve off evictions and business closures due to the coronavirus.
Biden will address the failure at bipartisanship. The Republicans continue to refuse to work with Democrats on gun reform, immigration reform, voter reform and changing the filibuster in the Senate.
Two mass shootings have sparked intense discussion about gun reform. The Republicans and far-right will continue to attack the notion to do something about it. Biden will likely say he'll do executive action to curb gun violence.
Biden will address the Republicans and the far-right conspiracies about his health.
Wildcard questions would be something about that shyster Tara Reade. Or something about the Green New Deal. Something about his dogs, Major and Champ.
Will they ask a question about Dr. Jill Biden's continued role as a teacher and the First Lady of the United States?
Will they ask a question about Washed Up 45's criticisms and hints of running for president again?
Will they ask a question about states pushing for bans on transgender children playing sports according to their identified gender?
He will also address the roles he has for Vice President Kamala Harris. The vice president will be appointed to handle the migrant crisis.
Biden will be tested with the press. The president said that he wants to be held accountable for his actions. The president will stutter. He has a known stuttering issue and of course, the far-right will try to play keyboard doctor and keyboard prosecutor. So don't be surprised that Biden's press conference will be dissected by the agitators.

After the Ohio State Buckeyes devastating loss to Oral Roberts Golden Eagles, one of the Buckeyes players shares the negative reaction he gotten from fans and white extremists.
The Ohio State University Police have launched an investigation into the abusive and threatening messages aimed at him and his fellow teammates.
E.J. Liddell shared the nasty remarks on social media and it attracted national attention.
"I just wanted to use my voice a little bit," Liddell said on Wednesday. "I've been quiet about it, and I just keep pushing because I have pretty tough skin when it comes to criticism. But that wasn't constructive criticism --- it was just brutal, hard-core. Just didn't sit right with me.
Comments don’t get to me but I just wanna know why. I’ve never done anything to anyone in my life to be approached like this.
One of the rants from a troll said to Liddell is: "I hope you die."
"I still don't understand why anybody would come at me like that," the sophomore forward said. "I definitely haven't hurt anybody in my life like that for those words to be said about me."
Liddell said that 98% of the Buckeye Nation are supportive but the 2% of them are complete assholes.
Liddell said that folks need to chill out. It's the way of the game. Competition does have wins and losses.
The reason why these assholes were attacking the Buckeyes is because their loss busted their brackets.
The University of Illinois Fighting Illini forward Kofi Cockburn posted a screenshot of a racist Instagram message after the top-seeded Illini were upset by Loyola Chicago. Cockburn replied with the words: "I blame his parents."is.
The university said it was investigating.
They want college basketball stars to just shut up and ball. The very same folks who listen to the bullshit from white nationalist Karen, Laura Ingraham.
"A lot of athletes reached out to me and told me they were going through the same thing, and just have a tough skin and keep your head up," Liddell said. "[Perdue star] Trevion Williams said he's been getting things like that since his freshman year. And that's not OK."

There's Black Karens and Kens.
Young woman tells the junk food media that the man's actions were vile.
A young Asian American woman riding a Miami-Dade County Bus was called an "ugly ass chink" and a "Jap" by the Black extremist.
The unnamed Black extremist was on a bus berates a young Asian American woman over the mask mandate on the public transportation.
Reminder, Florida is the leading state for the highest number of coronavirus cases. It has 3.4 million confirmed cases and over 75,000 deaths. The state's governor Ron DeSantis is a bonafide idiot. He refuses to listen to the federal government's warnings about premature opening.
The young woman named, Lai, recorded the encounter on the bus.
"Mind you your goddamn business, Chinese lady. Ugly-ass chink," said the Black extremist.
Lai asked him why he has to be so disrespectful and racist towards her.
"I don't care about you peoples, man. Go to hell, dog. This America, Jap!"
He then proceeds to put his middle finger up to the camera and states: "Smile for this chink!"
The encounter didn't get violent but it was disturbing. She was shaken by the experience and feared the notion of her race would provoke a violent encounter.
The bus company will likely ban the Black extremist from riding.
Given that a white terrorist massacred eight people at Atlanta area massage parlors, Asian Americans are on high alert. Of those victims, six were Asian American women. The mass shootings in Atlanta and Boulder led to calls for gun reform.
Lai says: "I'm glad and lucky that it was only verbal harassment because a lot of things have happened to more vulnerable people. It's demoralizing. It's like they view you as subhuman. Like you don't belong, but I do belong. Diversity is what makes this country so strong, so for someone to say something like that it's honestly heartbreaking."
Are Black Republicans racist?
The image of the man was shared on social media. The bus company will likely ban him from riding due to him not wearing the mask properly and the racial tirade. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Department didn't respond to the issue because it wasn't a violent encounter.
The Black man will likely lose his job and go dark on social media.
Miami-Dade County mayor Daniella Levine Cava denounced the incident.
"Hate speech has no place in our community, period. We must stand together to condemn all forms of bigotry and hatred, as we confront the rise of violence against Asian Americans."
