I guess this is current events, in any case it's too wacky not to share.

A guy I was in ROTC with turns out to be pretty fash. Now, this is not surprising and all of us have served with people who we wouldn't be surprised to at least see using the hard "r" on facebook up to being arrested on January 6th.

I was not expecting to know someone who is about to be appointed Attorney General by our "Trump except dumber and a country bumpkin" governor.

quote:

Last year, Bailey was named the governor’s general counsel, considered the second ranking position in the office after chief of staff. His previous jobs in the administration were as deputy general counsel for the governor and general counsel for the Missouri Department of Corrections.

According to the governor’s office, Bailey has eight years of legal experience, including working as an assistant prosecuting attorney in Warren County and as an assistant attorney general.

He has never held elected office.

Uh huh.

quote:

During his tenure with Parson, Bailey has kept a relatively low public profile. His closest brush with headlines came after records revealed he helped craft talking points the governor’s office used to advocate for the criminal prosecution of a journalist who uncovered a security problem in a state website.

That effort by the governor’s office was widely panned, and the Cole County prosecutor declined to file any charges against the journalist.

gently caress you Bailey. You were cool once. Or at least, fine to hang out with and drink cheap beer and shoot cheap guns with.

Axios got it from a court filing by his PDs to limit pretrial publicity.

And an article on dad from Daily Beast

quote:

Brink, who has appeared in such films as My MILF Boss 8, I Wanna Get Titty hosed, and Latina Slut Academy, told CBS 8, “You know Mormons don’t do gay. We don’t do gay. There’s no gays in the Mormon church. We don’t do gay.” (The Mormon Church has confirmed that Aldrich was a member but had not been active in some time.)
