54 When I was in college, I read a dual biography of Cardinal Wolsey and Thomas More.

The author's thesis was that, despite his hallowed reputation, More was kind of an a-hole, and that Wolsey, for all his faults, was really the better of the two men.

Interesting read. Too bad I can't remember the title.

105 Holbein does remarkable portraits with incredible use of color and detail, especially in the clothing of the model: rich and sumptious materials. But the faces and hands of the subjects are done with such effect, with the natural expressions and realistic skin tones, they stand out from the clothing and background. It is remarkable. I don't know if this is a 'trademark' of his portraits but it certainly seems to be a consistent technique.

Check out examples of his simple sketches, the equivalent of pencil drawings. They are wonderfully expressive even though they lack the color and detail of his finished work.

115 Anne of Cleves was a cool broad. Henry let her stay in England after he divorced her, and they became good friends, and was even allowed to appear with him at court. She became kind of a sister to him. Plus, she would parties where a lot of beer-drinking and card-playing went on.

Chain of office as Henry's Lord Chancellor featuring the Tudor rose. Apparently, officially called a livery collar.

Re. the S motif...

Collar of Esses
This famous livery collar, which has never passed out of use, takes many forms, its Esses being sometimes linked together chainwise, and sometimes, in early examples, as the ornamental bosses of a garter-shaped strap-collar. The oldest effigy bearing it is that in Spratton church of Sir John Swynford, who died in 1371. Swynford was a follower of John of Gaunt, and the date of his death easily disposes of the theory that the Esses were devised by Henry IV to stand for his motto or "word" of Soverayne. Many explanations are given of the origin of these letters, but none has as yet been established: for example: Souvent me souvien or "Think of me often."[3] During the reigns of Henry IV,[4] his son (Henry V) and grandson (Henry VI), the collar of Esses was a royal badge of the Lancastrian house and party, the white swan, as in the Dunstable Swan Jewel, usually being its pendant.

Yep, he did Henry VIII and at least one of the wives. Mrs. JTB saw the Henry portrait at Hampton Court. Not a huge painting but very impressive.

Turns out Holbein was more versatile than I knew. The Wiki page shows an example of his woodcuts which are surprisingly expressive despite the 'wooden' (no pun intended) limits. He also designed architectural features like a fire place and mantle using ink and subtle washes of color that is worth a look.

The beautiful thing about the @BretBaier interview is that
@KamalaHarris understood and responded to each question.
She used examples of policies. She gave real world context.
When Brett went hard after her. She didn’t call him names. She didn’t quit the interview. She didn’t make things up. She never once complained the questions were tough. She never played the victim card. She didn’t lose her temper. She didn’t take the bait to diminish or talk down to Trump supporters.
She stood up to him with force and never backed down.
He has been the President and campaigning for 9 years. Kamala Harris has caught up to him in just 100 days . That speaks volumes.
It’s why people want to vote for her. That’s why so many Republicans and Independents are supporting her
She is everything her opponent is not and will never be.

Oh well. Talked with some peeps for half an hour. Got in to vote and...the lady taking the information and making the ballot for me had absolutely no idea what she was doing.

Sir Thomas More - nice portrait, but would not ~~hang~~ behead.

203 Yep, he did Henry VIII and at least one of the wives. Mrs. JTB saw the Henry portrait at Hampton Court. Not a huge painting but very impressive.

Turns out Holbein was more versatile than I knew. The Wiki page shows an example of his woodcuts which are surprisingly expressive despite the 'wooden' (no pun intended) limits. He also designed architectural features like a fire place and mantle using ink and subtle washes of color that is worth a look.

HH painted Henry, Edward VI as a child (though he only lived to be about sixteen), and Anne of Cleves. His painting of her shows her not to be hideous at all; not hot, no, but rather pleasant-faced.

There's a twitter account, @ProjectVirginia, that supposedly has the ear of Republican officeholders in VA. His blowing up of the story about the DOJ suing the state to keep non-citizens on the voter rolls has apparently led to some efforts from the state to track down who's actually putting non-citizens on the voter rolls in the first place (there's been an apparent uptick of people trying to get themselves off the voter rolls which could be explained a few different ways, of course).

This guy is flexing like VA is going to arrest foreign nationals working elections in VA.

I believe it at about 15%, but it'd be fun if Miyares was holding a press conference in a couple of weeks about how they'd arrested a couple of dozen English citizens for electioneering in VA.

304 CNN on the Baier interview with Harris;

“ Democrats believe there may be significant numbers of GOP voters, including some who voted for former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley in the Republican primary, who could be persuaded to vote for Harris next month. If only a few thousand Fox viewers or traditional conservatives swapped sides, it could push some swing states in the vice president’s direction.”

And this, you racists;

“ The tightrope that Harris was walking as she sought to show steel and presidential mettle was evident from critiques of her performance on social media that often played into tropes directed at strong, Black women.”

It’s not that she’s an unhinged idiot. Nope.

The idea that THIS TIME there's going to be significant crossover from Trump to Harris, much more than even in 2016 a month after the release of the Access Hollywood tape, is hilarious.

======

Kamala going onto FoxNews never felt like a sign of strength in general, especially after CBS was caught editing their interview of her to make her sound better.

Walz had an interview on Fox a couple of weeks ago, and it went really poorly, too.

It just feels like her campaign is trying to find ways to win a news cycle with a candidate who has gotten to the point in interviews where she can't answer simple questions. She's constantly defensive and antagonistic to someone who's not even there.

She's weird. Much weirder than Vance.

They should finally come clean and admit they are Democrats. The fraud is over, you guys.

Their problem isn’t Trump. They have an issue with liberty and real traditional values.

That's odd. Is being testy now a positive (like being a brat was for a few days)?

369 This appears to be the new Stormy Daniels story:

“The former president’s attorneys allegedly sent Daniels an offer where the amount she owed him over a defamation suit would be lowered if she agreed not to make “defamatory or disparaging statements” about him.”

That is a completely legal offer and pretty standard in contentious cases of this kind.

380 How many billions did Steve Jobs take with him to the afterlife?

It all went to his wife, who's become kind of a shadow Soros in terms of how much of the Left she's funding.

Which is funny given Jobs himself deliberately kept Apple officially non-political and told Obama his policies would destroy the country.
