I’m not saying an early end to his presidency would not be good. Hell. It might be great. But don’t think we can bank on it. We should keep up the pressure b/c with or without him there’s a mess to clean up.

Marketshare strategy for journals?
This is some really sick shit.
Yes it is—and probably was when I was there. It’s just that it seems to me that much of England contrives to be somewhat village-y. Even parts of London seem to play to that “ye olde” something-or-other. Our hosts were keen to have us occupied elsewhere during Garden Day.
Dang. I asked google for a list of all the mythical villages in the mythical county of Midsommer and it obliged. There are 22 of them.
Only explanation.
Fear?
Feels good, don’t it?
Aww, you won’t settle for lovable and inept? Garn.
Apart from RFKjr’s insane vaccine policy, it’s going to be difficult to assess the nation’s health because Trump has already indicated he doesn’t want testing, b/c the stats will make him look bad…
Well, likely someone better than the one before…Low bar?

We spent two weeks in the UK visiting in and around Bromley in 2017. I must say my tiny and brief experience comports very well with life as depicted in Midsomer Murders—minus all the murder and mayhem of course.
Thriving under pressure, eh?
The learning curve is steep but after that it’s all downhill…

Oh. Btw, where are the Epstein files?

I doubt this a priori. And more than one similar encomiums…

Speaking of C.S. Lewis, in one of his novels the Devil is thwarted from doing major Evil in the Eden of a different planet. So to pass the time he begins wantonly tearing up plants & flowers. Trumplike. Not that he’s thwarted enough here.
Seems homey.
Every bit of good news helps…
Always en garde, eh? Will serve you well in budget council meetings.

Goodness, gracious. Such a rascal.
Passing ammo to those on the barricades, one guesses…
So today there was a 3 hour cabinet meeting in which much of the time was spent stroking Trump’s ego. I wonder if they are not physically afraid of what he will do to them and theirs if they displease him? Hard to believe anything else.
Assuming Trump and maga Republicans are one day defeated: how much resistance will there be to setting things back roughly to how they used to be? Something to think about…
to see up close what happens to a leader who becomes a tyrant. Or so one hopes.
Trump reportedly wants to allow 600,000 students from China to study in the US. My first thought: where’s the grift? This is America First? While he’s persecuting and deporting hard-working men and women migrants? But it might be instructive for those Chinese students
Don’t know how far Trump has got with appropriation of all our data, but they surely want to disenfranchise everyone who is clearly a Dem voter.
Adventuress!
Well, there is a statue in London…

Never been able to contain yourself, eh?
I can’t get over how fucking ridiculous it is for people to use “woke” as a derogatory epithet.
I hope to be around when the New Reconstruction goes into effect.
How rigged would an election have to be for Rubio or Vance to win? I don’t think they can do it. But then, I’m a compulsive optimist.
It seems to me that being a Trump appointee is the kiss of death for a presidential contender—barring something like Paul’s conversion on the road to Damascus, and very publicly…
Confirmation bliss…
True gesellschaft(sp?)?
Wait. Are they trying to pass off Todd Blanche’s interview of Ghislaine Maxwell as significant Epstein files?
Release the Trump/Epstein files now!
be a while before much will be made public-except for what the Republicans believe exculpatory (see, “waters, muddied”)
Reportedly the 1st tranche of the Epstein files has landed—some 33,000 documents. I predict most will come out on a Friday afternoon & the Republicans will be on the Sunday shows muddying the waters about their contents as best they can. It will still
Today is the day *some* Epstein files were to be released. So where are they?
Right on sister!
Screw Joe Scarborough.
Seems correct…
2) police presence. I mean more guns on the street, enhanced chances of criminal incidents with firearms. Or maybe just sucking up to the NRA. Idk. But it seems to me could backfire in unpleasant ways.
Former Fox host Pirro, now US Attorney for DC, reportedly won’t pursue charges against possession of rifles and shotguns unless they are used in violent crimes. Unclear to me if handguns are covered. Perhaps it is hoped that will lead to a bump up in crime stats, thus justifying the heavy

Smug too, I bet…

Carte blanche?
I reckon Putin was well satisfied with the result of the summit with Trump. He humiliated Trump and shored up support with his allies in the Russian elites and public, if nothing else.
Trying for an Edge…
Ah. For some reasons I thought Griffins were in Thracia.
Where are the Griffins?
