The Heavy Hand of the Federal Government
This is way back during the George H. W. Bush Presidency. The concept of school vouchers was new and being pushed by Rep...This winter has been bad and cold enough that a mouse has invaded my attached garage. He’s being pretty aggressive about trying to get in the house and he’s not very afraid of me. Mouse poison deployed. Leave or die.
I think Emperor Trump should offer a free Tesla Cybertruck to everyone in Greenland. That will win them over.
Good morning.
Headlines: Costco has switched back to Coke from Pepsi in it’s food courts.
I always liked Coke better, although as a kid we bought a fair amount of Royal Crown Cola instead because it was usually a bit cheaper. Pop came in returnable glass bottles and we kinda rationed it.

Imagine how much sh*t would hit the fan if US granted universal health care to Greenlanders, plus free education, social security, but not to existing US citizens. Political suicide.
Good morning.
Trump has this thing about islands: he loves them. He’s attracted to Cuba, he’s obsessed with Greenland and he obviously loved Epstein’s Island.

This is very dangerous. It is a betrayal because Denmark has always been a loyal US friend and ally. You don’t sh*t on your friends. Estimates are that to buy Greenland costs start at $700 Billion.
Good morning. It’s dark, cold but the wind may be dying down a bit.
Speaking of dark, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a MAGA cap being worn by anybody locally. I used to see them all the time. All glory fades.
Still no Epstein Files.
Do you hear the jackboots on the pavement?
Inflation on food is not under control. Prices keep rising, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. The few things that go down, never go down to where they were. And people like me, quit buying luxury foods as often because staples are so high in price. King Trump inflation erodes everything.
Headlines: ICE steals the phones of people they detain, and then ICE is pawning the phone. Crooks with a badge.
Good morning. Gale warning today with falling temps and a bit of snow. Oh goody.
Trump still covets Greenland while all but abandoning Ukraine.
Talking heads say Russia/Putin in trouble but I’ve heard that before. Same for Iran. Everything takes longer than we think.
Supper tonight will revolve around hot dogs. Probably wienies and beans on toast.
Trump won’t let Greenland become a US State, ever. If Greenland becomes the 51st State they get 2 Senators and 1 Congressperson none of whom will be pro-Trump.
He’ll keep it as some sort of territory so he can keep it under his thumb. He wants the resources and doesn’t care about the people.
I’m wondering why ICE is wearing camouflage. Not exactly effective in cities, suburbs, Target, your local school, playgrounds or the dollar store.
If you are a billionaire the US economy looks fine. If you are just an average Joe it looks terrible.
Trump and the billionaires don’t care.
What the world needs is electric tambourines. Feck acoustic, it’s only rock n roll if it’s plugged into a big ass amp and makes your ears bleed.
The new 2026 Barbie doll will have Mara Largo botox lips.
Good morning.
Headlines: Trump threatening attacks on Greenland, Iran, Cuba, Mexico because there is a buy 3 get one free sale on war. The man is drunk on power.
Meanwhile in DC, attacking the Fed has finally spurred a couple of Republicans to find some spine vs. Trump. Maybe. Stay tuned.
Just saw some videos of ICE operations: ICE are driving around in fecking BMW cars! That’s pretty high living on taxpayers dollars. When I was young federal agents drove Fords and Chevy’s like proper public servants. I suggest the bloat in gov points right to Trump and ICE.
Trump is using his goons to go after Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. There are no limits to Trump’s vindictiveness.
I’m willing to bet an ICE agent would NOT shoot an unarmed billionaire in the face like they do to unarmed middle class, tax paying citizens. Just saying.
Trump will send hundreds of ICE dudes to Greenland to curb illegal immigration. I’m sure this will make Greenlanders want to be part of the US.
Good morning. Coffee done. Breakfast still a way off.
Still no Epstein Files. Don’t get distracted, the Epstein Files are the best route to making Trump fall from power. Keep the pressure on.
Man, one pound of Polish ham lunch meat costs a fortune. Is there a pig shortage or is this tariffs?
