Trump still wants Greenland. He should bribe them into joining the US. We will give them:
Golf courses.
Massive ballrooms.
McDonalds.
Massive personal debt trying to pay for healthcare.
Elon Musk.
Huge military bases.
Advertising billboards.
Republicans.
Lawyers and lawsuits.
Billionaires.
PSA: A Hostess Cupcake today is about 1/3rd the size it was 50-some years ago. FYI.
Good morning. Hot sauce can make breakfast even more better.
Drawing out the release of the Epstein Files plus heavy redaction is only going to make the scandal worse.
Random: Monocles should be brought back. I don’t know why, but just do it.
Seen and Heard: Somebody online predicted Trump will flee the US to live in exile as soon as his term in office ends. That sounds about right.
RFK, Jr. will flee the country if there is a polio outbreak.
Elon Musk should just leave now.
Good morning. Breakfast will include Mexican refried beans. Happy.
Per news headlines: Trump gave speech about his wife’s panties. I don’t know what he said and I don’t want to know. I suppose this is slightly better than him threatening Canada. Maybe. At least he can focus on something.
It seems Amazon now has an AI shopping assistant (beta) names Rufus. It slid open as a side panel when I did a search without my asking for it. There is a little “X” to dismiss but there seems to be no way to just turn it off and never see it again. I do not want this.
Me: Hello boys and girls, our word for the day is, “redacted.” Can you say that, “redacted?”
Everyone: “Coverup.”
Me: I like the way you say that.
Good morning.
News Headlines: Trump ballroom price now up to $400 million. Ego dollars. Nothing has even been built yet. The Trump Poo is piling higher and deeper and this is only year 1 of 4 of the Trump infection.
Does anyone actually have a Trump smartphone out in the wild?
Scheduled release of the Epstein Files will be delayed so the cover-up can continue.
Is it just me or is Trump spending money like a drunken sailor?
One lesson from this fine mess: after Trump is gone and the GOP shattered, we are going to have to greatly reduce all powers of the US President. Permanently. The Trust has been broken. If Democrats are not onboard with that they need to go too.
AI Data Centers: Residential and Sm. Business utility customers will end up paying higher electric rates. Ditto water customers. Hey the utility companies are going to pass along the costs to you. The TechBros ain’t gonna pay. They are both going to squeeze you, the little guy.
Good Morning. 1st breakfast soon!
Seen and Heard: US healthcare coverage is GoFundMe. Basically, begging strangers for a handout. That’s the GOP and billionaire plan.
Q of the Day: That $40 billion given to Argentina, was that a “loan” nudgenudge or was that a big sloppy gift?
Good morning. Usual morning stuff.
Trump addressed to nation. I didn’t watch, but the headlines mostly say it was daft word salad that fell flat. IOW it was a waste of time if it was intended to boost his standing. Next!
Good morning. Drinking no sodium, free range, sustainable, fair trade, virgin coffee.
Headlines: Nothing new just repeats of the usual parade of horribles from the last few days, weeks, months. It never ends.
Also: Free Luigi.
Good morning. Coffee done, breakfast soonish.
Trump claims his massive ballroom must be built because of national security. He says that about everything that he can’t justify for any sane reason, because national security is one of those powers nobody can question. Except he’s a liar.
The headlines say Ukraine is under huge US (read Trump) pressure to give up territory for “peace”. Truth is it will only be a temporary cease fire. Russia will just use the time to regroup and attack again. Frozen war. And don’t believe any US security guarantees either.
Good morning. Coffee is a food group.
Hurry up with the Epstein Files already.
Good morning. Breakfast nears. It’s 7 degrees F with gusty winds. Good day to stay inside.
News: Nothing to see here. Everything is fine, now move along.
I’m MAHAing my DOGE with a MAGA.
Good morning. Coffee done. Investigating breakfast options.
Anti-vaxx, anti-affordable meds, anti-Medicare, Medicaid, anti-ACA and medical advice linked to weirdo conspiracy theories the GOP/Trump Death Cult is alive and well.
This is one of those bad days: I screwed something up, others screwed something up and I did a lot of running around trying to figure out that the problem was partially my fault. Blech.
Good news is it’s Frozen Pizza Friday, so there is that.
The deeply personal reasons why many Indiana Senate Republicans said no to Trump.
Black eye for Trump. Threats, bullying and intimidation by Trump were exactly the wrong tactic. It’s good to see some Indiana GOP still have the sense of fair play I remember them having.
Notice how Jared Kushner is always lurking in the shadows of every shady deal. If Kushner is involved it’s probably dodgy.
Good morning. I fell asleep after breakfast and therefore I am late.
Headlines: Denmark’s spy agency has listed the US as a potential enemy and therefore a threat to Denmark’s security. This based upon Trump’s claims to annex Greenland a Danish territory. In short the Dane’s don’t trust the US.
