The as-yet-unstoppable force of the Trump presidency and the as-yet-immovable object of Special Counsel Robert Mueller ’s Russia investigation came a little closer to each other Tuesday night. A meeting between Trump and Mueller has long loomed as a potential inflection point for the investigation, and the Washington Post reports that Mueller brought up the possibility of subpoenaing the president to testify before a grand jury during a meeting with his legal team in March. Trump responded Wednesday morning by continuing to criticize the investigation, tweeting that it is a “setup & trap,” echoing language used in a Fox News segment that aired Tuesday night. There was no Collusion (it is a Hoax) and there is no Obstruction of Justice (that is a setup & trap). What there is is Negotiations going on with North Korea over Nuclear War, Negotiations going on with China over Trade Deficits, Negotiations on NAFTA, and much more. Witch Hunt! — Donald J.

‘Sheriff Joe’ Arpaio Simply Cannot Stop Losing Elections
Joe Arpaio , the former sheriff of Arizona ’s Maricopa County, lost a race for mayor of Fountain Hills on Wednesday. Arpaio’s defeat at the hands of two-term incumbent Ginny Dickey marks the fourth consecutive loss at the polls for the Trump-loving 90-year-old, dating back to his ouster as sheriff of the state’s most populous county in 2016, in part due to his abusive immigration tactics that have resulted in at least $100 million in taxpayer-funded legal bills . Arpaio has yet to concede the race, though, and may pursue a legal challenge, according to the Associated Press. “I’m not a lawyer. I just want a little information,” Arpaio said. “In today’s environment, a large percentage of the people are not happy with the way the [election] system was working.” Besides being a “birther, ” Arpaio as sheriff refused to follow a judge’s order to stop racially profiling immigrants through traffic stops. After losing his reelection bid in 2016 and being convicted of contempt … [Read more...] about ‘Sheriff Joe’ Arpaio Simply Cannot Stop Losing Elections
Why Mike Pence’s Praise of Joe Arpaio Shouldn’t Come as a Surprise
The White House is continuing to lean on the new tax bill as the keystone accomplishment of Trump’s presidency, and on Tuesday, Vice President Mike Pence was in Tempe, Arizona, to detail how the cuts will benefit the state’s residents. In attendance was former Maricopa County Sheriff and convicted criminal Joe Arpaio, one of the Trump administration’s most stalwart supporters – and, last August, a recipient of a presidential pardon. “I just found out when I was walking through the door that we were going to be joined by another favorite,” Pence said after taking the stage. “A tireless champion of strong borders and the rule of law who has spent a lifetime in law enforcement: Sheriff Joe Arpaio, I’m honored to have you here.” The crowd erupted. “I’m honored to have you here.” Vice President Mike Pence recognizes ex-sheriff Joe Arpaio during a tax policy event in Arizona, calling Arpaio a “tireless champion of strong borders and the rule of law.” pic.twitter.com/tzmS3sKPnN — … [Read more...] about Why Mike Pence’s Praise of Joe Arpaio Shouldn’t Come as a Surprise
David Ellefson on Megadeth Firing: ‘You Find Out Who Your Friends Are… When the Shit Hits the Fan’
Over a year after David Ellefson was dismissed from Megadeth following an online scandal involving sexually explicit text messages, the bassist spoke about his sudden departure in a new interview. “You find out who your friends are and you find out who your friends aren’t pretty fucking quick when the shit hits the fan,” Ellefson told Real Music With Gary Stuckey ( via Blabbermouth ). “‘Cause everybody wants to be around you when you’re picking up your Grammy.” He added, “Look, life is… You’re never on top all the time. Your life ebbs and flows, your career ebbs and flows — all of that. I’ve been fortunate enough to be a career musician and I’ve had to go with the ebbs and flows of the good, the bad and the otherwise, sometimes from within, sometimes from without.” Megadeth announced they were “ officially parting ways ” with their founding bassist Ellefson in May 2021 after sexually explicit messages involving the bassist and an allegedly underage fan leaked on the … [Read more...] about David Ellefson on Megadeth Firing: ‘You Find Out Who Your Friends Are… When the Shit Hits the Fan’

Elvis Costello Reunites With Rusty, Announces 10-Show NYC Residency on ‘Fallon’
Elvis Costello announced a 10-show New York City residency and reunited with his short-lived teenage band Rusty Wednesday on The Tonight Show . Performing alongside Allan Mayes — who played in Rusty with Costello when the two were teenagers over 50 years ago — Costello delivered a cover of Nick Lowe’s “Surrender to the Rhythm,” off their recent reunion LP Rusty: The Resurrection of Rust . The rocker also talked about the reemergence of Rusty a half-century later during an interview with Jimmy Fallon; the then-Declan MacManus played in the folk duo starting in 1971 after he moved to Liverpool. “We played for about a year together,” Costello said. “We’ve been going our different ways since.” “Allan rang me up and said ‘It’s been 50 years since we started our partnership.’ We would play everywhere in Liverpool, where they would let us, and a few places where they wouldn’t let us,” Costello added, telling Mayes, “Let’s make the record we would have made if they let us … [Read more...] about Elvis Costello Reunites With Rusty, Announces 10-Show NYC Residency on ‘Fallon’

Projects from Aditya Assarat, Wang Qi, Le Bao And Jailed Myanmar Producer Ma Aeint In Busan’s Asian Project Market Line-up
Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) has announced the 29 projects selected for this year’s Asian Project Market (APM), a core strand of the festival’s industry activities, including new works from Thailand’s Aditya Assarat, China’s Wang Qi, Vietnam’s Le Bao and Myanmar’s Maung Sun, whose producer Ma Aeint is currently in prison in Yangon. Ma Aeint, who previously produced Maung Sun’s award-winning Money Has Four Legs , was recently sentenced to three years in jail with hard labour by Myanmar’s military junta, which took over the country in a brutal coup in early 2021. She was accused of “causing fear, spreading fake news or agitating against government employees”. She is attached as a producer to Maung Sun’s new project, Future Laobans , described as a drama about the “international dimension of organized crime.” Assarat, an award-winning Thai director ( Hi-so , Wonderful Town ), is returning to feature-length directing after focusing on producing, … [Read more...] about Projects from Aditya Assarat, Wang Qi, Le Bao And Jailed Myanmar Producer Ma Aeint In Busan’s Asian Project Market Line-up
