1. "Hit."

And the rest of the table votes.

"Hit."

"Hit."

"Hit."

"Hit."

"It's unanimous, den."

[Prairie Gates]

5. Remember, the one who brings the Barzini meeting to you is the traitor

[Kid Berwyn]

14. Richard Conte created some truly remarkable portrayals...

Check him out in "New York Confidential," where he's the guy from Chicago who helps the boss of New York City get rid of his problems. The discussion begins around 54:20, the voting starts about 56:00...the entire picture is a great watch.

38. Fine movie. Great acting by everyone. I don't

know how I missed seeing this one after all my years of cinema viewing.
Thanks for posting

[Kid Berwyn]

44. Broderick Crawford, of all people, invented the role immortalized later by Marlon Brando...

...and James Galdolfini -- the emotionally conflicted crime boss.

PS: You are most welcome, oasis! Art shines light on places the soul needs to see.

[byronius]

40. I just watched it. Great picture!

[Kid Berwyn]

45. Glad you liked it!

The actors were amazing -- Anne Bancroft stole my heart, but I also felt sorry for Richard Conte, whose movie hit man would have made a great real-life psychiatrist, like the one Conte played in "Whirlpool."

[BaronChocula]

16. Starring Abe Vigoda

as Dan Bongino.

[Prairie Gates]

17. DUzy!

[calimary]

33. They can't stop us from laughing at them.

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. If a Democratic president did this in these circumstances

The entire country would erupt, the media would go absolutely nuts. 😡😡😡😡

[Prairie Gates]

3. Where's Bongino?

[johnnyfins]

12. He is wondering why he ever left podcasting

It is a little curious that they are announcing this meeting and saying who is there.

[popsdenver]

37. I am surprised

we know anything about it, and that it isn't being held in the "WAR ROOM" ........in the sub-basement fortress of the White House......

Of course, this way, Trump can claim he knew nothing about it.....

[Sneederbunk]

30. Outside looking in.

[sop]

4. Oh, to be a fly on the wall at JD's house.

[kimbutgar]

15. Maybe some worker serving there has their phone on record

[littlemissmartypants]

23. Oh...

To be a drone with a bomb.

[JMCKUSICK]

28. Maybe they'll use Signal Chat

[littlemissmartypants]

31. That would help with the strategic planning. 😉

[newdeal2]

6. The most transparent White House ever

We can see exactly what kind of BS they are up to.

[littlemissmartypants]

26. And we know 98% of what's said afterwards will be lies.

Plus, whatever action that they decide on, they'll screw up. They're the mob that couldn't find a decent horse's head or shoot straight.

[Raven123]

7. Strategize? Don't you just press a button to release files nowadays?

They are just meeting to coordinate their lies.

[rampartd]

8. we will be getting some version of new evidence :

obtained by enhanced interrogation of epstein's accomplice, ms maxwell.

trump, the hero of this story, will now use this information to remove all of the democrats named by ms maxwell.

[TheBlackAdder]

9. Nice to know who all runs cover for pedos.

[Blue Owl]

10. I bet JD is looking forward to privately sniffing all those couch cushions after the meeting

[erronis]

35. Sniffing?

[littlemissmartypants]

43. Or stiffing.

[republianmushroom]

11. To hell with the truth,

must protect the orange Jesus at all cost. Must be played for the Rubes.

[Initech]

13. They know the fix is in and he will get away with it. Again.

What's even more infuriating is how much of a 180 they've done on Epstein.

[BaronChocula]

18. The Keystone Corruption Caucus

It'll be like the "Twilight Zone" episode "It's a Good Life" where everyone will be afraid to say anything bad about the little boy lest it gets back to him. These circle jerks will sit around praising Dear Leader and emerge with a "framework" for a plan.

[sop]

19. I'm shocked they would announce the meeting, and admit it's to strategize about the Epstein Affair.

[Wednesdays]

21. Hubris. nt

[Mopar151]

22. To them, this is how "bidness" is done!

Move along, nothing to see here, just how business is done in DC. As soon as they figure out a way, however shady and dishonest, competence be dammed (!) to put the focus back on the Clintons, they will consider their work done!

[littlemissmartypants]

27. See numbers 2, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19... what did I miss?

32. Making a copy of this.

Most of it - no, ALL OF IT sounds like the donald. ESPECIALLY number 1 (cunning) AND number 19 (strong belief that he will never be brought to justice).

[erronis]

36. Agree with you. Maybe on a bad day trump doesn't hit all the numbers.

[FakeNoose]

20. Chump's name isn't on the list

Hmmmm.....

Maybe this is really a secret meeting to discuss the 25th Amendment?

[bronxiteforever]

24. Just like witches at black masses.

Evil minds that plot destruction…
Apologies to Ozzy

[flashman13]

25. I think this meeting has more to do with the 25th amendment than Epstien.

[markodochartaigh]

29. The

Mafia is an authoritarian power structure with a Strong Leader. So is Russia. So is Hungary. And maga wants this for the US.

34. Im not sure why we are listening to people

Who stole an election, and are obviously subverting our democracy. They are illigitimate and should be ignored. Take back the white house by force.

[Maine Abu El Banat]

Screwing around with children is a quick way to get cement shoes. So they are far worst than the mob
