Once upon a time Up the Creek used to have a Sunday night gig with the open spots sandwiched in the middle. There would be an opening 20 from a pro act, and then the open spots, another interval , another 20 set and another interval and then the closer. Malcolm Harder used to kind of set up the open spots for failure and part of the entertainment was watching the new acts get booed off. I didn't get booed off but knowing Malcolm's modus operandi, I kind of sat at the back antisocially until it was time to go on. So without any ammunition from casual conversation, Malcolm introduced me as "some bloke at the back who I know nothing about, probably a peadophile". I went on, there were a few heckles. I went over them. It was okay. However, Malcolm's over the top defamatory introduction stayed with me and I found it amusing so I put it on my CV for a while until someone said "Take that off. Some people won't take it as a joke and peado stuff is something no one ever forgives anyone for." Sage advice. I did. But it made me wonder if Trump has finally done something the public will never forgive him for - I'm not saying he actually did anything but it's interesting that the Epstein files are a subject that Republican Congressmen and Senators finally seems willing to break ranks for. Of course MTG has been breaking ranks for a long time over Israel (I did not have her on my anti-Zionist bingo card) and other issues... But it's a bit of a shock that such a close Trump acolyte is prepared to go this far. After all, it wouldn't be the first time Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct... Meanwhile, I read that in Georgia the state level RICO prosecution for January 6th crimes is still ongoing with a new prosecutor being brought in to replace F Willis... Perhaps he hasn't evaded justice (and a constitutional crisis) after all...
