I was the fIrst one in.......... and now I'm the first one out!

So to kick off the inaugural edition of the Puzzle Palace I was motivated by a story that I recently saw on the Rachel Maddow show.

Now I know some of my Right wing friends will immediately coil up like a cat waiting to pounce on a mouse after I say that, but lets just say I feel the same way when I hear the names Sean Hannity and Bill O'reilly, so settle down and let me finish the damn story!

Apparently Gov Chris Christie...(who in the hell names their kid that anyway)?  Its like naming your child Smit Smithy or Bill Williams....anyway I digress.. Chris Christie used to be the NJ state Attorney General. His job was to prosecute bad guys and put them in prison. Apparently he was pretty good at that and he used that as a springboard to run for Governor.

Now why am I telling you all of this? Well it turns out several years ago he had to prosecute a case of a Billionaire Real Estate Developer..(no not Trump, we could only wish that to be true) but an obscure guy by the name of Charles Kushner.

Now it seems Mr. Kushner who was a (bigly)? (big League)? ..does anyone know what the hell it is Trump says?  anyway, he was a major contributor to the Democratic Party and without giving too much detail, lets just say his empire was built on sawdust and Gov Christie managed to put him in prison for a VERY LONG time.

Now for those of you that follow this sort of thing, that name Kushner may sound familiar......If you said, that sounds like Trumps daughter Ivanka (who in the hell names their kids Ivanka)? Husbands last name, then you would be right!

Either Christie didn't know that, or maybe he thought they would let bygones be bygones...I mean, Trump is an upstanding and righteous fellow that would never stoop that low.........

Has anyone watched Kevin Spacey in the Netflix show House of Cards?
(a blueprint for the Trump Administration)

Anyway, so It seems our Gov Christie was flying a little too close to the sun and his wings made of wax melted under him like butter under a grilled cheese sandwich (insert Christie fat joke here) and now his hopes of being Attorney General along with it!

So in his first real act as President Elect, Trump is using his power and influence to pay back the loyalty of people that supported him in a very 3rd world dictator sort of way.

And that's just in the 1st week!  Thats why I started this Blog! You just cant make this shit up!

Stayed tuned for more Puzzle Palace blogs, They haven't even driven the clown car out of the Trump Tower garage and things are already looking promising for some of the best Politics watching of the 21st century.
