Very, very nice!  Kudos to you, Sir.

Now that’s a good point. I was thinking mostly about stonewalling in general, but yours is certainly the more correct interpretation.

That’s true, but when you are the President, and have a high approval rating and are headed out the door anyway, you have a bit more latitude.

My thoughts exactly:

This is unseemly right now. Go back under your bridge, and come out later in the week.  Geez.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Oh, this isn’t good. My dad, who was a little younger than Bernie but in much worse physical condition (obese, a little bit of diabetes, high blood pressure, former smoker, etc) survived the procedure well, had a good outcome, went through cardiac rehab, and lived successfully and fully for about another two to three…

Oh, given that the IG waited until literally the day Pompeo leeft the country, I’m guessing it’s quite a bit more serious than that. After all, that’s just an offense for which the current administration has never, I mean never, experienced any consequences. I don’t know what it is, because my brain is scrambled from…

Me, too!  I wish I could hope for some leaks, but I doubt there will be any.

Doesn’t that mean that the office will just stay open, if the Democrats pull the same stunt the Republicans pulled with Merrick garland? Assuming they have the balls to do so?

Oddly, if Kamala Harris ends up as Attorney General, which seems pretty likely, few, if any. She talks a good game, but her track record on holding white-collar criminals accountable is quite poor. Without her policy of “letting the perpetrators slide,” after the 2008 banking and mortgage meltdown, we wouldn’t have to…

This really is the saddest thing. Between the Australians and the Brits, these were the folks whom, if the Fourth Estate hadn’t been asleep at the switch and the Obama Administration too mired in conventionality and excessive rectitude, could have helped us sidestep this living nightmare we call the Age of Trump. But…

How will he do that? He’s on a plane with Mike Pompeo, heading ultimately to Montenegro, where we have no extradition agreement. We know Pompeo is avoiding submitting documents or testifying, but I never thought it would go this far! : )

Ninety-two on Wednesday is outrageous.  Scary stuff.

I am very, very concerned about the runaway acid/anaerobic process.  If we don’t fall into that black hole, things will start evolving again in as little as 6,000 years, which is really fast, on an astronomical scale, but if end up in an anaerobic state, all bets are off.

That is a wonderful Photoshop job, there.  Austin Powers plus the Trumpster -- yikes!

I cannot recommend more highly or strongly Ian Frazier’s The Cursing Mommy’s Book of Days. In it, you can read an uproarious and at the same time totally deadpan description of how wacky and insane the weather could be in 10 years, wrapped in a chatty, funny novel of suburban discontent and dislocation in the form of…

Ya think?

“Look, this is my not-surprised face. I am full of not surprise.”

Came here for this update — was not disappointed!  Also, a close-up of the driver of the tractor/sled shows Gina Haspel in a fat suit.
