And Newsom points his finger at the feds.  Predictable.

Not sure where you see that.

But note you say nothing about Trump's repeating his idiotic order that we sweep the forest floors of leaves to prevent fires.
Neither Trump nor kiid have any conception of the point of National Forests. Not to mention, the scale of the job in a state like California.

The scale of the job would be outrageous of course.  There is also the not small point that decomposing organic matter is essential food for the plants living there, there are insects and animals living on the forest floor that would get swept up in this absurd operation, not to mention smaller scale plants that are equally essential to the life of the trees and wildlife...


Well.  It is reassuring, at least to me, that the plants and wildlife were well fed as they were incinerated.

The National Forests might burn, so lets take them down.

REDSTATEWARD logic...

What about all the Federal Aid being given to Florida communities that build up despite the risks of hurricanes and flooding. 

Think Trump would ever threaten to withhold it until they limit that development?  What do you think REDSTATEWARD?  Would make a shitload more sense then sweeping through the National Forest with giant rakes.

Why does Smokey Bear say to clean your campsite before departing?

Maybe the Finnish leader can tell us.

Jesus Christ.  You are as dumb as Trump.

Because you might have left smoldering embers, which can reignite later.

Because you might have left trash, which is bad for the environment as well as making the site less useful to the next campers.

Because you might have left human food, which encourages bears and other critters to look at human campsites as food sources.

What the fuck is wrong with you?!

I disagree.

Many of his adherents are slower than he is. He. at least, knows he is conning them. They seem not to.

On the issue of a new pilot for a television show...

Writing the television show would be easy, then you hire writers and let them help. It could start out with a movie producer and a scientist talking on a train where the idea of "NOCTURNAL" is thrown out there. Then you do the tests, etc, and meet the characters from the show, and then after you have met the characters then the characters come together as a team and they save a family whom were held hostage in Venezuela and they go in and they save the family. So, right there is the pilot. Then when you have money you hire writers to keep the show going. 

And I will do like Aaron Spelling and I will hire the most beautiful women on television. I will have great writers with beautiful women. I like to work with women directors too, women make great directors, so I am sure many episodes will be done with female directors. I will get women to help to write the show too. I will provide a lot of opportunities for women. And I will pay everyone well, I will treat people the way I would want to be treated.

Salute,

Tony V.

You want to get hired or not on the basis of how attractive you are physically?!

Trump is 100% ignorant--of this there is no doubt. You can hear it every time he goes off script and tries to expound on any subject. Morronic...
There is nothing for a moderately intelligent person to do but to roll one's eyes and think "This is the President of the United States???
What really concerns me now is how delusional he is becoming. For most of his life he has been only moderately delusional--generally just changing some small details here and there if the story he was trying to sell didn't match up with reality of it-as opposed to the reality he had of it in his own mind. But for the length of his presidency he has become worse and worse--facilitated by the media who seldom hold him to task after one of these guffaws. And with the more he sees himself getting away with, the larger the lie he trys to sell...black is white, up is is down...spoken directly to the American public right on tape. And they appear to swallow it...or for the most part offer no objections. It must be what they themselves want to hear--or least it's something that is too much trouble to argue with.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Aaron Spelling always hired Playboy Playmates, he hired Barbi Benton a lot, and other Playmates. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbi_Benton

But of course you want people who care enough about their careers to get training, and to study. So, I would be hiring people who are coming out of the acting schools and stuff, I want to hire local talent, and create local opportunities.

And many of the beautiful women who Aaron Spelling hired turned out to be great people, along with being beautiful. One example was Farrah Fawcett.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farrah_Fawcett 

It takes more than just beauty to make it in Hollywood. You have to be beautiful, plus you need to care enough to study and get training. Then on top of that, you need that special magic, like Audrey Hepburn, Audrey had that magic. Some women have magic. That is what I am looking for when I produce, I want women who have that magic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audrey_Hepburn

One star just died, Diana Rigg, she had that special magic. She had beauty, plus she had that special magic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Rigg 

And I want to hire Mahlagha Jaberi so that I can meet her. She is a Persian model who lives in San Diego. I want to hire her. She has over two million fans on Instagram. I am friends with her on Facebook. She is 30 years old and single. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahlagha_Jaberi

But, the first part is to get the money, so I need to get the funding for the research, and I will use some of the money from the research to pay for the pilot.

If Hugh Hefner was still alive I could just take the project to Hef, but Hef is gone now. Hef liked me. 

And of course I still have my movie script that is ready to go, it is all complete. I want Ariana Grande for my movie.

Salute,

Tony V.
