Le Point aguiche avec sa Une consacrée « aux super-pouvoirs de la sieste », assortie d'une photo de plage et de mer translucide. En réalité, l'hebdomadaire nous parle surtout de notre quotidien surchargé, assorti d'un manque de sommeil chronique. Oui, la sieste est une solution, surtout « les siestes de 10 minutes, car elles ne laissent pas le temps au cerveau de plonger en sommeil profond et évitent ainsi au dormeur de souffrir d'une inertie au réveil ». « Pratiquées quotidiennement, elles jouent un rôle cardioprotecteur, chez les personnes en dette de sommeil. Elles ont aussi des effets positifs sur la mémoire ». Bref, pas besoin d'être sur une île déserte pour s'adonner à une petite sieste réparatrice. On en veut pour preuve ces quelques photos choisies par le Point, où l'on voit en gros plan, députés et ministres, bâillant ou même dormant profondément, sur les bancs de l'Assemblée nationale.L'été, ce n'est pas seulement la sieste, c'est aussi la caniculeLe Figaro Magazine nous propose « un petit guide de survie pour un été caniculaire car, nous dit-il, la généralisation des épisodes de canicule et de sécheresse dans notre pays implique des mutations profondes de notre comportement ». Exemple : l'alimentation. On nous conseille le « régime méditerranéen : tomates, brocolis, concombre, courgettes, œufs, poisson, volaille ». Côté activités, on évitera le sport lorsque la température dépasse les 35 degrés, à moins de s'hydrater abondamment, « jusqu'à 6 litres par jour ». « Sinon, poursuit Le Figaro Magazine, la solution la plus efficace pour lutter contre la chaleur, à la maison ou au bureau, reste la rénovation énergétique. Pour un résultat optimal, pas de secret, il faut isoler toutes les parois : murs, sols, toitures, combles, fenêtres, portes ». De quoi permettre de ne pas dépasser les 24°C à l'intérieur, lorsqu'il fait 35°C dehors.35 degrés, ce n'est toutefois pas ce qu'il y a de pire si l'on se tourne du côté de la Grèce, et notamment Athènes où l'on attend ce dimanche 23 juillet des températures allant jusqu'à 45 degrés. Aujourd'hui en France s'en fait l'écho, « en attendant que la canicule passe, les habitants restent cloîtrés ». « Moi, je prends quatre ou cinq douches par jour et je reste à la maison autant que je peux, rideaux tirés », raconte une habitante de la capitale. Pas de rénovation énergétique en vue : « User et abuser de la clim semble être une attitude bien ancrée chez soi, dans les centres commerciaux, mais aussi sur les terrasses ouvertes des restaurants. (...) La clim est l'option la moins verte, mais pour l'instant la plus efficace et la plus populaire », conclut Aujourd'hui en France.Un hommage aux basketteurs afro-américainsC'est M, le supplément du Monde, qui nous raconte « le long match pour l'égalité », de ceux qui « ont longtemps subi le racisme et la ségrégation, sans véritable soutien de leurs coéquipiers blancs ». Et l'un de ces anciens coéquipiers, Bob Cousy, 94 ans, exprime aujourd'hui des regrets, lorsqu'il pense à Bill Russell, « la légende indépassable des Celtics ». « Au soir de sa vie, l'ancien sportif regrette de ne pas avoir tenu la main, à l'époque, à ce coéquipier qui en aurait pourtant eu besoin ». Il se liera toutefois d'amitié avec un autre basketteur afro-américain, Chuck Cooper, à une époque où la ségrégation bat son plein. Un soir de 1952, lorsque les deux hommes se retrouvent « à la gare de Boston, devant des toilettes séparées entre hommes blancs et hommes de couleur, ils décident d'uriner sur les voies, en signe de protestation ». À cette époque, la National Basketball Association (NBA), n'est encore qu'une « ligue mineure, aux fondations fragiles (...) loin de ce qu'elle est devenue, un concentré d'Amérique et une marque planétaire ».Les succès de « Lady Jane »Jane Birkin, est décédée il y a tout juste une semaine. « Une incrédulité consternée a accueilli sa disparition, raconte Le Point, tant elle semblait nappée d'une immunité de jeunesse unissant plusieurs époques. » L'hebdomadaire égrène ses nombreux succès, musique, cinéma, et aussi sa manière d'être à la mode, décontractée. Par exemple, lorsqu'elle essaie une robe de velours chez Yves Saint Laurent, et qu'elle dit innocemment : « C'est comme un t-shirt, je peux la rouler dans ma valise. »Hommage également de L'Obs avec une Jane Birkin souriante sur une photo en noir et blanc en Une, « Bye Lady Jane ». Ses chansons, ses films, mais aussi un aspect moins connu de sa personnalité. Ses engagements. Aux côtés de Simone de Beauvoir et Simone Veil en faveur du droit à l'avortement, avec Robert Badinter pour l'abolition de la peine de mort, Birkin, nous dit L'Obs, « est contre toutes les guerres ». « Birkin, absolument, définitivement, est pour la liberté d'expression, sous toutes ses formes. »Le JDD toujours absent dans les kiosquesLes journalistes du Journal du dimanche poursuivent leur grève entamée le 22 juin, contre l'arrivée à la tête du journal de Geoffroy Lejeune, journaliste proche de l'extrême droite.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the January 6th Committee is a trojan-horse front for the Department of Justice to cast a wider net than a law enforcement agency is legally permitted to. This is unconstitutional as it violates the individual's Constitutional rights in a criminal proceeding. Earlier, Peter Navarro was held in contempt of Congress by the Congressional January 6th Committee. Navarro was indicted and immediately arrested at the airport and placed in handcuffs and leg irons for his political opposition to the committee's document request. Similarly, former Attorney General Eric Holder was held in contempt of Congress and was never arrested; clearly, there's a double standard. Democrats use Congress and its subpoena powers in the legislative branch to work as an apanage of law enforcement agencies in the executive branch. Then, some who advocate for judicial review reject the notion that then VP Mike Pence lacked the authority to send the electoral college votes back to their respective states. The constitution specifically points out that it is the state legislatures that decide and to ignore that would be a violation of the federal Constitution. Democrats repeatedly violated state legislatures in the 2020 election and the Supreme Court of the United States did nothing about it. Later, Candidate Dave McCormick conceded the PA Senate primary race after a recount and a lawsuit he filed on bad advice from his lawyer Chuck Cooper. It's critical that counter-culture Democrats be stopped in the midterms. The reason the culture is rotting is because the American Marxists are focused on destroying Americanism. They destroy the culture to seize more power and expand their ruling class which seeks political power above anything else. Afterward, tyrannically tinkering with the law for the sake of defending crimes and punishing the law creates a permanent place for plunder in society. In time the misery and corrosiveness of the American Marxists' utopian cause will rot the culture if not checked. Finally, Biden and Putin speak the same language and the economy is tanking while Biden keeps blaming Russia. They claim that fossil fuels must be replaced by electricity, yet electricity requires fossil fuels. Democrats will lie and blame others every step of the way.  Learn more about your ad choices.

A witch, a squirrel, and soon a mom, this actress opens up about climbing the ranks since she was a teenager, and shares the joys and challenges that have accompanied some of her most notable roles.  Lilli Cooper is an actress and singer who made her Broadway debut at age 16 in the original Broadway cast of Spring Awakening, originating the role of Martha Bessell, and recently earned a Tony Award nomination for her role in Tootsie on Broadway. Lilli's other stage credits include the Elphaba standby for the North American tour, Australian tour, and Broadway productions of Wicked, originating the role of Sandy Cheeks in the Broadway production of Spongebob Squarepants, and playing Hélène Kuragina in the American Repertory Theatre production of Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812. She has numerous TV and film credits, including The Good Fight, Bull, Elementary, Instinct, The Post, Dynasty, and Indoor Boys. Coming up next, Lilli will debut a brand new solo show at 54 Below at the end of July.  Growing up in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in midtown New York City, and with two actors for parents, Broadway and the arts were ingrained in Lilli and her brothers at a young age. When she was 15 and a student at LaGuardia High School, an agent took notice of Lilli and opened the door to her first professional audition and Broadway credit - Spring Awakening.  Lilli opens up about the triumphs and challenges of landing Spring Awakening while still in high school, pointing out that while she didn't really have a support system at school for being a working actor at that age, she luckily had that support at home with her family. She also reflects on the profound experience that was being in a musical about teenagers while being a teenager herself. Looking back on originating the role of Sandy Cheeks in Spongebob, Lilli tells us how she first heard about the project, and why it was such a magical process. And she also shares her feelings regarding her Tony Award nomination for her role in Tootsie, and why she struggles at the same time she celebrates.  In this episode, we talk about:  Developing her solo show for 54 Below while pregnant Singing in concert with her father, Chuck Cooper, and Seth Rudetsky Life as a standby for Elphaba  Booking Spongebob Squarepants with college friend Ethan Slater Hopes for major cultural shifts within the theatre industry Connect with Lilli: IG: @lilcoopz Twitter: @LilliCooper Connect with The Theatre Podcast: Support us on Patreon: Patreon.com/TheTheatrePodcast Twitter & Instagram: @theatre_podcast Facebook.com/OfficialTheatrePodcast TheTheatrePodcast.com Alan's personal Instagram: @alanseales Email me at feedback@thetheatrepodcast.com.

Los viernes, el maricóctel, una serie de enlaces recomendados para ponerte al día de algún tema destacado. Y los lunes, el maricoffee, un repaso de cuatro titulares para empezar la semana bien informado (y un test de actualidad para ponerte a prueba).Leer esta newsletter te llevará 15 minutos y 27 segundos.“Era un perro que hablaba, ¿sabes a lo que me refiero?”. Bienvenido a La Wikly.🧑 Vuelve Trump, vuelve el impeachmentLo importante: Este martes, el Senado dio comienzo al segundo juicio de impeachment contra Donald Trump en poco más de un año. Esta vez, por supuesta “incitación a la insurrección”.Aparte del futuro político del expresidente, que podría ser condenado y no poder volver a presentarse a un cargo público, hay mucho más en juego en las probables dos semanas que durará el juicio.Pero lo primero es lo primero.QUÉ ES EL IMPEACHEMNTEl impeachment es un proceso en el cual la Cámara de Representantes presenta cargos criminales contra un cargo oficial a nivel federal (judicial o ejecutivo), o su equivalente a nivel estatal si el estado lo prevé en su constitución.Posteriormente, se celebra un juicio en el Senado, el cual determina la culpabilidad o no de la persona que ocupa el cargo y las consecuencias legales que se le aplican en caso afirmativo.A pesar de lo que se cree en el imaginario popular, este proceso no solo afecta al cargo del presidente de los EEUU. La Constitución prevé este proceso también para el vicepresidente y cualquier otro cargo público (Artículo 2, Sección 4).Si bien es cierto que el impeachment presidencial constituye el caso más reseñable de cuantos existen por su poca frecuencia, el proceso parlamentario específico que tiene y la amplia cobertura mediática que recibe.La Constitución de los EEUU prevé el impeachment por los delitos de traición, soborno “y otros delitos o faltas graves”. Este último constituye un término amplio cuya interpretación última ha dependido de lo que ha determinado el Congreso para cada caso.¿Cómo funciona un impeachment presidencial en la práctica? Solo tres presidentes han sufrido el proceso de impeachment, con un cuarto, Richard Nixon, dimitiendo del cargo poco antes de iniciarse uno contra él. Estos son:Andrew Johnson (1868).Bill Clinton (1998-1999).Donald Trump (2019-2020 y 2021).El impeachment a Andrew Johnson no prosperó al no alcanzar por un voto la mayoría de dos tercios en el Senado necesaria para destituirlo.No obstante, tuvo importantes implicaciones en la época porque frenó el uso abusivo del impeachment contra presidentes en ejercicio simplemente porque el poder legislativo estuviese en desacuerdo con él.Pero los tres impeachments más actuales, y en virtud de los cuales el proceso ha alcanzado su actual fama, son los relativos a Clinton y a Trump.Bill Clinton (1998-1999): perjurio y obstrucción a la justicia.Los dos artículos de impeachment que se presentaron contra Clinton fueron aprobados por la Cámara de Representantes, dominada por republicanos, a raíz de la actuación del expresidente en torno a dos relaciones extramaritales.Una de estas acusaciones terminó en un juicio civil por acoso sexual, el caso Paula Jones. Y otra de ellas derivó en el ya conocido como caso Monica Lewinsky.Los republicanos acusaban a Clinton de mentir bajo juramento y de obstruir las investigaciones en torno a ambos casos.El Senado acabó absolviendo a Clinton de ambos cargos por 45 a favor/55 en contra y 50 a favor/50 en contra, respectivamente, muy lejos de los 67 que hubiesen sido necesarios para aprobar la destitución.Donald Trump (2019-2020): abuso de poder y obstrucción al Congreso.Tras la filtración de la llamada de Trump al presidente ucraniano Volodímir Zelenski, la Cámara de Representantes, dominada por demócratas desde las elecciones de medio mandato de 2018, inició una investigación que culminó con la votación de dos artículos de impeachment contra Trump.El Senado absolvió a Trump de ambos cargos por 48 a favor/52 en contra y 47 a favor/53 en contra, respectivamente.Mitt Romney votó a favor del artículo del abuso de poder, convirtiéndose en el primer senador en la historia en votar a favor de la destitución de un presidente de su propio partido.Donald Trump (2021): incitación a la insurrección.El asalto al Capitolio del pasado 6 de enero motivó el inicio de un nuevo proceso de impeachment contra Trump por parte de la mayoría demócrata en la Cámara de Representantes.Como ya cubrimos desde La Wikly en distintas entregas del Maricoffee (accesible cada lunes para suscriptores premium), el proceso ha generado distintas reacciones tanto en el seno del GOP como en el equipo legal de Trump.Incluso se hipotetizó con la idea de que el ya expresidente pudiese fundar su propio partido como medida de presión contra aquellos senadores republicanos que tuviesen la tentación de votar a favor de condenarle.Si bien Trump ya no es presidente, una condena por impeachment aún podría resultar en su inhabilitación para volver a postularse a cargo público alguno, eliminando sus esperanzas de un nuevo asalto a la Casa Blanca en 2024.Sea cual sea el resultado del juicio en el Senado que comienza esta semana, Trump ya ostenta el dudoso récord de ser el único cargo público en la historia de los EEUU a nivel federal en ser sometido a dos procesos de impeachment.Pero entonces, ¿cuáles son las posturas de los bandos?LA ACUSACIÓN: LOS DEMÓCRATASEl argumento central que esgrimen los demócratas es la influencia que ejerció Trump desde su cargo para arengar a la multitud de manifestantes a irrumpir violentamente en el Capitolio e interferir con la labor parlamentaria de la certificación de votos.A diferencia del juicio político anterior, la intervención del expresidente en este suceso fue de carácter público: no sólo hay muchos testigos del hecho, sino también videos y declaraciones del presidente realizadas por redes sociales.Llevar adelante este proceso responde a tres objetivos generales:Garantizar desde el gobierno una respuesta punitiva a un atentado contra las instituciones nacionales; es decir, que el evento tenga consecuencias tangibles para sus auspiciadores.Prohibir que Trump vuelva a ocupar el cargo (es decir, impedirle que se presente nuevamente a elecciones) y remover los beneficios que recibe como expresidente.Salario público y seguridad del Servicio Secreto, entre otros.Desmotivar el apoyo del electorado a la figura de Trump.Respecto a la estrategia querellante, varios de los gestores del juicio político en la Cámara querían un testimonio de primera mano para ayudar a probar que Trump incitó los disturbios. Algunas de las ideas fueronLograr que los oficiales de la policía del Capitolio cuenten sus historias sobre la lucha contra los asaltantes.Invitar a los funcionarios republicanos de Georgia que fueron presionados por Trump para que anularan el conteo electoral del estado.Sin embargo, figuras como Chuck Schumer y Nancy Pelosi se han manifestado a favor de que el proceso avance rápidamente, argumentando que no necesariamente se necesitan testigos ya que los crímenes de Trump están a la vista y documentados.Cabe recordar que los demócratas no tienen mucho tiempo que perder ya que la agenda presidencial demanda espacio en el Congreso y presentar testigos ralentizaría el proceso.Además, 45 republicanos del Senado ya se han decidido a apoyar la inconstitucionalidad del juicio tanto en los prolegómenos del juicio como en el primer debate del juicio celebrado este martes.En principio, no está previsto que el juicio dure más de una semana y hay una gran improbabilidad de conseguir el apoyo bipartidista necesario para aprobar el impeachment y las sanciones derivadas de una condena.LA DEFENSA: TRUMPLa defensa asienta sus argumentos en dos pilares:La negación de que Trump incentivó a sus partidarios a la violencia."Se niega que el presidente Trump haya puesto en peligro la seguridad de Estados Unidos y sus instituciones de gobierno", escribieron sus abogados en un escrito para el juicio. “Se niega que amenazara la integridad del sistema democrático, interfiriera con la transición pacífica de poder o pusiera en peligro un rama de gobierno equiparable”.También sostienen que estaba protegido por la Primera Enmienda para "expresar su creencia de que los resultados de las elecciones eran sospechosos".Libertad de expresión, vaya.La supuesta inconstitucionalidad del juicio político debido a que Trump ya no se encuentra en ejercicio de sus funciones como presidente.Esto es muy controvertido ya que, en primer lugar, la Cámara demandó a Trump cuando este todavía se encontraba desempeñando su cargo.Además, varios juristas coinciden en que la destitución del cargo es solo la sanción mínima aplicable al funcionario encontrado culpable, lo que no lo exime de recibir otras sanciones.Chuck Cooper, un veterano y respetado abogado constitucional conservador, escribió este artículo de opinión en The Wall Street Journal donde desarrolla ese argumento.EL JUEGO POLÍTICODemócratas y republicanos se juegan mucho crédito político en las próximas semanas conforme el nombre de Trump vuelve a acaparar la atención mediática que había perdido en los primeros pasos de la administración de Biden.Poco se habla de la efectividad que ha tenido el bloqueo de Trump en plataformas como Facebook y Twitter, le parezca a uno bien o mal.Y lo que tienen que valorar los partidos es cómo de expuestos quieren quedar tras este juicio de impeachment:Los demócratas se arriesgan a apartar el foco de Biden y de las primeras medidas políticas de su presidencia, incluido el paquete de estímulo de 1.9 billones de dólares que ahora avanza por reconciliación presupuestaria por el Capitolio.Del lado contrario, pocas figuras como Trump han conseguido aunar al electorado demócrata de la forma en la que lo ha logrado el expresidente.Las encuestas están de su lado: una mayoría de estadounidenses apoyan condenar a Trump por incitación a la insurrección.Los republicanos se arriesgan a convertirse en antagonistas del electorado republicano, que sigue teniendo una alta lealtad hacia Trump. Al mismo tiempo, un voto en contra del impeachment quedará grabado en la historia si los demócratas logran presentar un muy buen caso contra el expresidente.Del lado contrario, apoyar a Trump puede servir como retrato de un partido demócrata incapaz de pasar página de cara a las elecciones de medio mandato de 2022 en las que necesitan una base republicana activa: enfadada y dispuesta a arrasar a los demócratas.Claro que mantener en el mismo partido político a las Liz Cheney (establishment moderado proimpeachment) y las Marjorie Taylor Greene (trumpismo reaccionario) promete dejar una bomba de relojería en medio del GOP.La gran pregunta, por tanto, será ver cuánto dura el juicio.Si no se presentan más pruebas o se cita a testigos, es posible que la votación se celebre este mismo fin de semana y el próximo lunes el juicio de impeachment sea solo otra página en la historia reciente de EEUU.En el podcast, hablamos de la primera jornada del juicio y lo que cabe esperar de los próximos días ahora que acusación y defensa ya han mostrado sus primeras cartas.¿Desea saber más? The Washington Post tiene un conteo de whip de los senadores que ya se han posicionado casi definitivamente sobre su voto. Y The New York Times tiene un genial reportaje gráfico de los diferentes pasos del impeachment, los ya dados y los que se podrían dar en los próximos días.🤓 Qué están leyendo en…Washington D.C.: ‘El paquete de estímulo de Biden es admirablemente ambicioso. Pero también plantea algunos grandes riesgos’ por Lawrence H. Summers en The Washington Post. (en inglés; 6 minutos).Larry Summers fue Secretario del Tesoro durante dos años en la era Clinton y director del Consejo Económico Nacional de la Casa Blanca durante otros dos de la era Obama. La columna que firmó esta semana para el Post generó mucho ruido en D.C. porque ponía en duda la ambición del paquete de estímulo de Biden, valorado en 1.9 billones de dólares, por los problemas que podría acarrear en el futuro; a grandes rasgos: inflación e inestabilidad económica. La respuesta ha sido contundente. La gente de Biden, incluida la Secretaria del Tesoro actual Janet Yellen, han contestado a Summers argumentando que este no es el momento de quedarse cortos, algo que ya le pasó a Obama en 2009 tras la crisis económica de 2008 cuando dejó guiarse por la presión republicana y aprobar un estímulo que a todas luces se quedó corto. Summers alega que el momento es distinto, y que el paquete es excesivamente caro, pero Yellen asegura que la inflación es un riesgo que están dispuestos a correr porque tienen las herramientas para controlarla. La otra pregunta es: ¿están los demócratas gastando demasiado crédito político cuando en unos meses van a querer aprobar otro paquete de infraestructura trillonario? Este explainer de Vox lo analiza todo detenidamente.Silicon Valley: ‘El nuevo consejero delegado de Amazon, Andy Jassy, puede o ayudar a los trabajadores y vendedores —o automatizarlos a todos’ por Christopher Mims en The Wall Street Journal. (en inglés; 8 minutos).He estado leyendo mucho sobre el relevo de Andy Jassy en Amazon estos días. Me gustaron mucho las columnas de Ben Thompson sobre Jeff Bezos y la de Casey Newton sobre los retos de Jassy, pero he querido destacar esta de Mims en el WSJ porque me parece que Amazon se enfrenta a un reto diferente al que tienen por delante compañías Big Tech como Apple, Facebook y Google, menos dependientes del mundo físico (y en territorio estadounidense). Piensa: empleados de almacenes, transportistas, vendedores en su plataforma. Amazon puede automatizarlo todo en una transición de no demasiados años y Jassy será muy probablemente el encargado de lidiar con la supervisión de ese proceso. Salvo que quiera optar por otro camino. Lo que es evidente es que el escrutinio sobre la compañía no va a dejar de crecer, con lo que la relación entre megaconglomerado y sus cientos de miles de empleados va a ser uno de los grande focos del debate en torno al futuro del trabajo. Y con votos sindicales y audiencias de comités congresuales de por medio, la guerra promete volverse muy cruda.Hollywood: ‘Las muchas vidas de Steven Yeun’ por Jay Caspian Kang en The New York Times. (en inglés; 32 minutos).Es difícil encontrar estos días buenos perfiles de actores de Hollywood porque se están estrenando pocas películas, pero Caspian King hace un gran trabajo diseccionando la que para mí es una de las figuras más fascinantes de los actores asiático-americanos (¡junto con John Cho! ¡Y Awkwafina!). Yeun es más conocido por interpretar a Glenn en The Walking Dead, pero también hemos visto al actor nacido en Corea en cintas independientes como Orígenes y en largometrajes de cineastas de su país de origen como Okja y la más reciente, y brutalísima, Burning. Este año despunta con Minari, una semiautobiografía del cineasta estadounidense Lee Isaac Chung sobre una familia coreana que se muda a la Arkansas rural de los años 80. Caspian King aprovecha ese contexto para una radiografía verdaderamente emotiva sobre la identidad asiático-americana, las familias inmigrantes y el retrato que se hace de todo ello en el cine. Muy top leerlo hasta el final.😆 Quitándole la graciaLa Super Bowl dejó un partido poco emocionante (qué pesaos son Gronk y Brady) y un Half Time Show algo descafeinado por culpa de un The Weeknd que quiso todo el protagonismo para sí mismo —aunque es probable que tuviera limitaciones de espectáculo con motivo de la pandemia. Pero lo que sí quedaron fueron algunos memes, y eso siempre se agradece.El más viral, aunque pasajero y casi que ya anticuado, es el que usa un pequeño extracto en el que The Weeknd entra en una especie de laberinto de espejos y parece estar realmente perdido. Mis favoritos son este de cuando te pierdes en el parque de atracciones porque has entrado en la tienda de golosinas a por una bolsa de chuches:Y este otro de cuando te cierran el museo en unos minutos y tienes que darte prisa para ver lo mucho que te queda pendiente:De lo demás, me quedo con este otro meme sobre los bailarines que acompañaron al artista (“Esta es la vez que más mascarillas se han usado en Florida desde hace meses”):Y con este otro sobre lo que la pizza rolls ven cuando se están haciendo en el microondas:Y en vídeos e imágenes que te alegrarán el día:Jack Black haciendo de Thor.Un juicio gatuno inesperado.Otro buen meme de The Weeknd perdido, pero NSFW.Un complejo meme con final triste.Un buen meme de acento británico.Un buen meme sobre lo viejo-meme que eres.Un gran vídeo de mascotas.Un gran meme de historia de conquistas rusas infructuosas:🤩 Un vídeo para celebrar la vuelta del hijo pródigo de YouTubeDavid Dobrik ha vuelto a YouTube y eso debe celebrarse. Ni en Twitch ni en esta newsletter he escondido jamás la devoción que siento por este chaval, quizá el youtuber más divertido y buena hente con el que jamás me he topado. El tipo llevaba alejado de los ruedos de la plataforma desde el comienzo de la pandemia, un drama solo superado por el cierre de las salas de cine neoyorquinas. Y pese a que sí ha dedicado más atención a su podcast, lo que muchos queríamos era que nos actualizara sobre su vida con un vídeo.Eso sí, su nueva aparición es en su canal secundario: David Dobrik Too. Es decir, no es uno de sus vídeos intensamente bien editados que siempre duran 4:20, en homenaje a la cultura del cannabis. En esta ocasión Dobrik enseña su nueva increíble mansión, le regala dos coches a dos de sus asistentes e inaugura el estudio donde desde ahora rodarán las entrevistas de su podcast Views. El primer episodio con Halsey ya está disponible.Es posible que hasta que Los Ángeles no vuelva a la normalidad prepandemia, Dobrik tampoco lo haga con las publicaciones semanales de su canal, pero cabe agradecer que al menos él y su tropa de pirados seguirán en YouTube de forma forma algo más contenida. Entre cuatro paredes, vaya.👋 Y para terminar...Una recomendación.[Esta sección ha sido asaltada por Anita Pereyra]Mientras esperamos que Emilio termine de ver Bridgerton (yo sugiero que tomen asiento y se pongan cómodos para esperar), les traigo una recomendación de miniserie histórica que vale mucho más la pena: El bazar de la caridad.Está basada en un evento que solía organizarse en París en 1885, tristemente conocido por un incendio que consumió el edificio y se cobró la vida de más de cien personas (la mayoría mujeres pertenecientes a la aristocracia). La historia sigue el hilo de tres mujeres que sobreviven a la tragedia y luego deben afrontar las consecuencias.Los guiños de época alcanzan una amplia variedad de ámbitos: política, valores sociales, novedades tecnológicas, moda. Tiene personajes femeninos memorables, expuestos a debates morales muy interesantes, y el guión dramático está tejido cual telaraña: impecable. La clave es sobrevivir al primer capítulo.Hasta la semana que viene, This is a public episode. Get access to private episodes at www.lawikly.com/subscribe

We’re on day two of the Senate’s second impeachment trial of Donald Trump and our hosts are here for the breakdown. On Tuesday, the House impeachment managers released a video montage of January 6 in an effort to tie former President Trump’s rhetoric and words to the storming of the Capitol. “[The video] had in many ways the effect that displaying a crime scene photograph has on a criminal trial,” David explains. “It tried to make it real again.” Tune in to hear Sarah and the guys chat about  the constitutionality of impeachment, the mechanics of the trial, and the persuasiveness of Trump’s defense team. Stick around to hear our hosts chat about what National Pizza Day means to them.   Show Notes: -Senate Impeachment Trial: House Managers’ January 6 Video Montage. -French Press: “The Impeachment Trial Vote Will Set a Precedent. Make It the Right One.” by David French in The Dispatch. -Brandenburg v. Ohio -“McConnell Signals Trump Conviction Is a GOP Conscience Vote” by Jennifer Jacobs in Bloomberg. -“The Constitution Doesn’t Bar Trump’s Impeachment Trial” by Chuck Cooper in the Wall Street Journal.

Former president Donald Trump’s lawyers will argue the Senate cannot constitutionally try him now that he is out of office. J. Michael Luttig, a former federal appeals court judge, agrees with this impeachment argument in a Washington Post piece. Chuck Cooper, a top conservative lawyer, offers a counterargument in the Wall Street Journal. Patricia Mason got sick with COVID-19 in March last year. She is now out of the hospital and dealing with the aftermath, including part of a medical bill that topped $1 million. The L.A. Times brings us Mason’s story. Several states are allowing more people to gather indoors. ProPublica spoke with scientists who explain why they think this is a bad idea. A series of class-action lawsuits is focusing on whether products use real vanilla flavoring. The Wall Street Journal has the story of vanilla getting its day in court.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Chuck Cooper, who is in effect Joe Biden and the Democrats attorney, penned an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal surmising that Bill Clinton's private offenses were not impeachable but alleges that Donald Trump has committed offenses and these allegations are impeachable. Cooper erroneously reimagines the constitution to make the case for trying and removing a private citizen in a Senate removal trial. However, not a single founder at the Constitutional Convention ever suggested that the impeachment clause was for anyone but those currently sitting in public office. Then, even Nancy Pelosi had prior knowledge of a planned riot at the Capitol, and she did nothing. What did Pelosi and Mitch McConnell know and when did they know it? Later, Liz Cheney who voted to impeach President Trump does not deserve to be in leadership. Her home state of Wyoming has censured her, and she may not politically survive re-election. Afterward, the Biden Administration's attack on American energy independence continues to cost more pipeline jobs.

Leur nom ne vous dit peut-être rien, et pourtant, le basket leur doit quand même un peu. Nous sommes en 1950 quand Earl Lloyd, Chuck Cooper et Nathaniel Clifton deviennent tour à tour le premier joueur noir drafté, le premier joueur noir à décrocher un contrat et le premier joueur noir à jouer un match en NBA. Pionnier d'un sport touché par la ségrégation, comme l'ensemble de la société US à l'époque, le trio initie alors la longue marche des Noirs dans l'élite du basket américain. Que reste-t-il de cet héritage ? Comment se sont-ils imposés ? Dans le sillage de l'icône Jackie Robinson, premier joueur noir de la MLB, la ligue nord-américaine de baseball, leur histoire mêle contexte social, stéréotypes et enfin sport, forcément. Elle invite aussi à découvrir des anecdotes, celles d'hier et celles pour la postérité, d'un hôtel de Caroline du Nord aux clubs de jazz des métropoles américaines. Quelles étaient les vies d'Earl Lloyd, Chuck Cooper et Nathaniel Clifton ? Qu'ont-ils changé en NBA ? Animé par Xavier Colombani, avec Maxime Malet (à New York). Réalisé par Roland Richard et Antoine Bourlon. Ce podcast est le premier épisode de la série inédite « Black NBA », à découvrir en parallèle dans le quotidien L'Équipe et en version numérique.

Today I am honored to be sitting down with Broadway veteran Chuck Cooper! He talks about how "The Life" changed his, why six people had to be strangled on the stage of the Broadhurst Theater, the genius of Tony Kushner, as well as stories about Yoko Ono, James Lapine, and more. I hope you enjoy this interview!

Today we celebrate Chuck Cooper, the first African American to be drafted by an NBA team

Qui est le premier joueur noir à avoir mis les pieds en NBA ? Qui est cet homme à avoir fait tomber la barrière de la couleur et à avoir pavé la voie à des milliers d'autres ? Ce nom, chaque joueur, dirigeant, spectateurs, passionnés de NBA et de basket en général devrait le connaitre. Et pourtant ce n'est pas le cas. Voici pourquoi cette Chronique de Motor City est dédiée à Earl Lloyd, qui est devenu le 31 Octobre 1950 le premier joueur noir à disputé un match NBA. Avant 1950, la NBAA et son ancêtre la BAA étaient restées entièrement blanches. La Ligue n'avait pas officiellement interdit les joueurs noirs mais le racisme était latent. Pourtant 3 ans plus tôt déjà, Jackie Robinson avait détruit la barrière de la couleur dans un baseball autrement plus populaire et malheureusement compétemment ségrégé. Alors les pontes de la NBA, les hommes à la tête des franchises les plus en avance (Celtics, Knicks) ont décidé de quitter la préhistoire et ont ouvert leurs portes aux joueurs noirs. A la draft 1950, ce son donc 3 noms qui ont rejoint la NBA : Earl Lloyd, Chuck Cooper et Nat Clifton. Chacun de ses 3 pionniers aura un rôle à jouer pour démocratiser la présence de joueurs de basket mais Earl Lloyd sera le premier à mettre un pied sur un parquet NBA et donc à marquer l'histoire...grâce à un hasard du calendrier ! Dans ce podcast, nous parlerons donc de l'impact qu'à pu avoir Earl Lloyd sur le basket américain et sur la place laissé aux joueurs noirs. Nous reviendrons sur le parcours sportif de Lloyd mais également sur sa gestion du racisme. Dans une Amérique encore sous l'horreur de la ségrégation, Earl Lloyd n'a pas toujours pu dormir dans les mêmes hôtels que ses coéquipiers, ni manger à leur table... Pourtant le basketteur gardera toujours son calme et se montrera digne de sa situation particulière Earl Lloyd a commencé sa carrière avec les Washington Capitoles et a passé ses plus belles années à Syracuse. Et pourtant il était impensable de ne pas l'avoir dans les Chroniques de Motor City. D'abord parce qu'il a finit de manière honorable sa carrière à Detroit mais surtout parce qu'il est resté dans la Motown gravissant tous les échelons : scout, puis assistant coach (une nouvelle fois le premier noir en NBA) puis head coach ! Son activité post-carrière - il travaillera à l'inclusion des minorités dans la municipalité de Detroit et avec le groupe Bing - nous permettra aussi s'intéresser plus largement sur la méconnaissance que le grand public peut avoir pour cette icone du basketball.

Imagine a world in which Jackie Robinson never broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball. Or, Chuck Cooper didn't join the NBA as the first Black Man (he wasn't the first non-white in the NBA surprisingly enough). Or, the AFL was a Negro Majority ownership league in partnership with Lamar Hunt. Seems impossible? Think again!! And the outcomes may have been better in the long run for the Colored/Negro/Black/African-American. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lee-smith47/support

Into the Great Wide Open was the eight studio album recorded by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in 1991.  The title track follows Eddie as he embarks upon a music career in Hollywood.  Although perhaps a reach, there are several similarities between the protagonist of the song and the protagonists of the independent advisor movement.  First and foremost, the future is wide open, the sky is the limit, and there is often a sense of rebellion. On today’s episode, I am joined by Chuck Cooper, co-founder and Managing Partner of StrongBox Wealth in Lee’s Summit, Missouri and two of my colleagues, Jason Pinkham, co-founder and Managing Director at Dynasty Financial Partners and Caitlin Douglas, a Vice President and top transition specialist at Dynasty.  We will be discussing the transition process from a traditional financial institution into the independent space.  The perspective will be from the team responsible for all of the planning and execution of the move.

http://www.epicprogress.com/daily-trump-damage-report-292017/ Happy Nazis, Trickledown 2.0 (The Moistening), wall costs, unbelievable White House product sponsorship opportunities, and which minority is next on the hit list? All this and more in today’s Daily Trump Damage Report for Thursday, February 9th, 2017.• Trump feels strongly that the state should be able to take all of your property without having a criminal conviction. At a meeting with Sheriffs, the orange menace espoused a penchant for making civil forfeiture easier, while simultaneously indicating that he doesn’t understand what it is.• White Nationalists are extremely invigorated and excited by the successful nomination of Jeff “Klampet Keebler” Sessions. White power online news sites and prominent KKK Grand Wizard and former Republican candidate David Duke hailed Sessions becoming the nation’s new Attorney General as a great step forward, in hopes that the Justice Department will begin targeting “thugs and illegals” – not-so-dog-whistle dog whistles.• Trump hypes a “phenomenal” tax package coming in a few weeks, offering no details. We do not need the details to know that it will offer a gargantuan tax cut to the richest 100 families in America, a sizable tax cut to the upper 3%, a rounding error of a tax cut to anyone making less than $200k a year, and lastly is formulated to bankrupt and default the United States government within 4 years.• Trump’s border wall is now expected to cost $21.6 billion in non-alternative fact dollars, and take 3.5 years to build. For the same cost, America could purchase a measles vaccine for every child on the planet, buy two USS Ford aircraft carriers, purchase the planet’s music industry, buy Iceland with enough money left to plop 7 Burj Kalifa skyscrapers on it. Net migration from Mexico was 0 for the past several years.• Inspiration for Disturbed’s rendition of the Sound of Silence and current White House adviser Steve Bannon would like you to very much know he is super-duper friends with Reince Priebus and would never, ever stab him in the back to save himself from the ire of Trump.• Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Gorsuch’s anti-Trump comments may help him succeed in making it to the bench, which call into question whether or not this was the whole point of the comments.• John McCain schools Trump’s perpetually humiliated press deceiver, Sean Spicer.• The chief information security officer at the White House has been removed, and we are not sure if he was fired or resigned. No comment has been issued as to whether or not a replacement has taken over. Trump and staff continue to use unsecured email servers and unsecured smartphones proving that he is significantly dumber and more careless than he ever accused Hillary Clinton of being.• CNN’s host Chris Cuomo says that being called “fake news” is the journalist equivalent of the “n” word. It isn’t. He apologizes later. Trump and surrogates will use the mistake to raise the blood pressure of the authoritarians who empowered them.• Why is the White House Press Corps not asking about Trump being owned by Russia, or the corruption surrounding their intelligence agencies activities on Trump’s behalf?• In Trump’s’ call with Vladimir Putin, he did not know what the START nuclear deployment treaty was. Told, he said he did not like it. He then said he was like, popular, and stuff.• A federal appeals court bodyslammed Trump’s Muslim ban, and reminded the White House counsel that they do not have power to interpret law or executive orders.• Fourth broken seal of the actual apocalypse and singular incarnation of the abstract concept of falsehood, Kellyanne Conway breaks a pile of ethics rules by telling people to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff!”, using the office of the President to hawk the shoddy Chinese-made merchandise of the spoiled orange oligarch’s daughter.• Chuck Cooper withdraws from consideration for Trump’s next solicitor general, leaving the door open for the nomination of Kellyanne Conway’s husband, George Conway. The solicitor general is responsible for arguing the US government’s case before the Supreme Court. Conway has only ever argued once before the Supreme Court. George, a monster befitting the spouse of Kellyanne, represented murder-product producer tobacco giant Philip Morris.• First they came for the Muslims. Next, they came for the Mexicans, and Trump is now preparing a vicious deportation executive order.• Trump signs three new sweeping executive orders on law enforcement. In it, he directs Sessions to figure out how to maximize punishments for non-violent drug offenders and use actions he seems necessary to guard against cartels which “are destroying the blood of our youth and other people.”• An insider continues to reveal the secretive goings on inside the Trump White House, demonstrating that Trump likes his administration the way he likes his women – funded by Russian intelligence and prone to leaking.

The Total Tutor Neil Haley and Coach Karen Hall will interview Chuck Cooper, Jr. Will Discuss His Legendary Father And His Foundation. About the Foundation The Chuck Cooper Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit dedicated to honoring the legacy of Chuck Cooper by helping further the education of our young people. The mission of The Chuck Cooper Foundation is to continue the legacy of Charles “Chuck” Cooper, the first African-American drafted into the National Basketball Association, by awarding graduate-level scholarships and by providing comprehensive leadership development, professional skills, and opportunities to underserved students. As he approached his graduation from Duquesne in 1950 with a bachelor's degree in education, Cooper signed on with the famed touring all-black Harlem Globetrotters team. On April 25, 1950, Cooper was selected in the second round of the NBA draft by Boston Celtics owner Walter Brown. When an associate pointed out that Cooper was black, Brown answered that he didn't care whether Cooper was “striped, plaid, or polka dot.” The 6-foot, 5-inch, 200-lb. Cooper made his debut with the Celtics on November 1, 1950, and he went on to produce a strong rookie season. He played in 66 games, averaging 9.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per game and sparking a renaissance in the Celtics' drooping fortunes. Cooper formed bonds with his teammates, including future Celtics great Bob Cousy, with whom he would sometimes go out in the evening to listen to jazz concerts. During his basketball career, in addition to playing with the Celtics, Cooper also played with the Milwaukee Hawks and the Fort Wayne (Indiana) Pistons. While with the Pistons, he played in the 1956 NBA Championship.

Nearly 75 years after the first Black man in history was drafted into the NBA by the Boston Celtics, the city of Boston and America more broadly still have a long way to go in terms of equity for people of color. And while jabs at Boston's pretenses of progressivism via the behavior of their fans sadly holds water even today at times, the history of the organization itself in that regard is an important one.Perhaps no player was more important to setting that in motion than the man in question drafted by the Celtics in 1950, Duquesne's own Chuck Cooper. And with that era also back in the contemporary news cycle due to former NBAer JJ Redick's widely-criticized comments about the level of play in Cooper's era, we thought it would be a perfect time to link up with his son Chuck III.In this episode of the CLNS Media "Celtics Lab" podcast, we talk about Cooper's trailblazing on and off of the court, the toll it took, and his and the Celtics' legacy in fighting for racial and social equity. We also get into the good works the Chuck Cooper Foundation does up to this day in addition to tackling Redick's misguided takes head on.Join your usual hosts Cameron Tabatabaie, Alex Goldberg, and Justin Quinn for one of our favorite episodes in a long while -- and a refreshing break from hypothetical trade talks about you know who.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/celtics-lab-nba-basketball-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
