It's not peace and Trump isn't a president.

It is scary, but I suspect many at the bottom layers would skeedaddle before the line ever reached them.

That is funny. My day is now complete for the laugh I just had.

I'm surprised anyone can still subscribe to the idea it was authentic. I'm no expert on human behavior but I spent 30 years in a career where reading people and understanding behaviors was useful and I honed the skills. I watched the event unfold and detected many inconsistencies. It was staged.

It is beginning to appear the answer to your question is, "no".

As the temperature in the kitchen gets turned up, these thin skinned malcontents become increasingly intolerant to heat. I seriously think a well executed campaign of publicly exposing Patel's misdeeds will lead to his meltdown. His paranoia is reaching new heights by the hour.

They know nothing, and have even less interest when it comes to governance

Indeed, Donald Trump *should* become the first American president to go to prison.

Brave New World- Iron Maiden

Just what we need, a paranoid booze hound running the once renowned investigatory agency. Can people can add fuel to his paranoid fire? Perhaps flood social media with public queries about Patel being fired and rumors he was replaced with the world famous inspector Clouseau? Might crush him.

There is a discernible pattern, isn't there?

Peace Frog - The Doors

Sick and fucking tired, in fact.

The logical follow up question is: what did you do with it?

While the similarities are unmistakable, I have to concede this comment is way more Pope-ish than the "fuck off" I suggested on his behalf.

Damn right! Decorum in politics died the moment the Mango Menace slithered down the guilded elevator. The sooner we all accept that, the better we'll be for preparing to end this global nightmare.

Somethin' to believe in - Poison.

I'm starting to think Kevin Hassett is incapable of saying anything tethered to reality or remotely inoffensive.

Pittsburgh is on my chasing 30 rotation this season. I'm looking forward to the trip.

I assembled and filled the first of two new raised beds yesterday. I'll finish the second one when it stops raining. We now have 7 large raised beds for herbs and vegetables and four smaller ones for flowers.

Fire Lake - Bob Seger and the SBB.

Does he understand that the foolishness is his?

Long, long way from home - Foreigner.

Was Trump was really so enchanted with the Iranian program of charging tolls to move oil through the Strait, that he is going to do it himself further out?

Good luck, Melonia. There's an awful lot of evidence saying otherwise.

Nine Tonight the "other" Bob Seger and the SBB live cut.

Pete Hegseth doesn't meet the minimum requirements to qualify as a keyboard warrior, let alone lead the world's "premier" military.

It's beginning to look like the 25% that doesn't support impeachment is mostly composed of Republicans in Congress.

If this doesn't scream Pete Hegseth has no control over the department he is supposed to be leading, I don't know what does.
What a disaster.

Perhaps the goal was to stir just the churning of the topic exactly the way it is being churned, because "it" is intended to be the distraction.
