Naked City's "Tombstone for a Derelict" concludes where brilliant-but-warped Baldwin (Robt. Redford) freely admits to cops he & his friend killed 4 Derelicts while dressed as Nazis to draw attention to sad state of world. He's sent to Bellevue. Powerful conclusion w. a message. — PolitiTweet.org

Naked City's "Tombstone for a Derelict" has a priceless scene where Libby is put on hold by Adam when she calls just to say "goodnight"--from a telephone booth (remember them?) w. a long line of folks waiting. When she finally hangs up, the guy in line angrily yells "G'Night!" — PolitiTweet.org

John Lewis boycotted inaugurations of Geo. W. Bush in '01 & @realDonaldTrump in '17--both times because he sincerely felt the outcome was brought about under suspicious circumstances (Bush by Supreme Ct. ruling in FL recount & Trump by Russian interference in election). — PolitiTweet.org

It's hard to believe but John Lewis list his 1st bid for Congress back in 1977--when fellow Democrat Wyche Fowler clobbered him in runoff for Atlanta-based House seat & thus became the last white to represent a majority-black district anywhere in U.S. — PolitiTweet.org

Thinking about late John Lewis, & recalling how he was big upset winner of U.S. House nomination in '86 over the better-known & smoother State Sen. Julian Bond--who was hit last-minute charges (including from estranged wife Alice) of cocaine use. — PolitiTweet.org

Watching Naked City's "Tombstone For A Derelict" & got an excellent glimpse of the high-octane charisma of young Robt. Redford-leading 3 other young men to put on Nazi uniforms, commit murder to demonstrate society's ills. Very much a take on Leopold & Loeb. — PolitiTweet.org

As one who is frequently absent-minded, I embrace G.K. Chesterton's definition: "Absent-mindedness is not an absence of mind," he wrote, "but a presence of mind elsewhere." — PolitiTweet.org

What is particularly sad for Jeff Sessions is had he stayed in Senate rather than quit to be AG, 1)he'd be Judiciary Committee chmn . 2) he'd be Trump's "First Friend" in Senate, much as Sen. Paul Laxalt was to Reagan & 3)repeal & replacement of Affordable Care Act wld've passed. — PolitiTweet.org
