After staying safe for three years, including two vaccinations and a booster, all it took was a funeral in N.J. to bring me down with Covid! Day three of feeling miserable.

Well, even though it isn’t Twitter any longer, posted comments are still called tweets. Maybe eventually they’ll be called Xhibits?

Inflation is down, as is unemployment, and the Fed says the risk of a recession is diminished. So what happens today? Dow down over 200 points. Go figure.

Republicans have found a new way to criticize the government (Biden). UAPs! They’re excited about it now, even though UFOs have been a source of controversy for decades. Now it’s a national security issue, and the Biden administration needs to come clean about the cover-up. Yeah, just like Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, two Bushes, and Trump did.

It sure looks like McConnell had a petit mal seizure, probably related to the concussion he had from a fall.

The Republican Party has become the MAGA Party. Even if it loses Trump, it will find a facsimile. It’s time for a party to emerge that embodies the best of what the Republicans used to be. It might take several election cycles to gain a footing, but the country needs it. Obviously, the No Labels Party ain’t that party.

Day 4 of the wife being out of town. I need something to watch tonight on the tube. I have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Max. Any suggestions?

Can sanity be restored in the House of Representatives? Only if the Democrats take it back. You’ll still have McCarthy, Green, Boebert, Gossart, Jordan, et al. But they won’t be in charge! Jeez. Impeach Biden? Really?

The latest insurrectionist to be sent to prison claimed in his defense that he believed the cop he beat with a flagpole was Antifa. As if that was a reasonable excuse. Thankfully, that went nowhere.

Women flocked to see the Barbie movie, so naturally Republican men hate it and say it’s “woke.” It would be silly if it weren’t so sad. Actually, it is silly. And stupid.

I misspoke. It was Alabama that defied the Supreme Court. Freudian slip I guess.😮

So Texas is defying the Supreme Court ruling on redistricting. Now what? Does DOJ step in? Has a state ever done this before and gotten away with it?

RIP, Tony Bennett. You’ll be missed.

It just occurred to me. Why should this classified documents case be complicated? The government deemed the documents classified. Trump took them. What difference does it make what was in those documents (legally)? Why does the defense need to go over all those documents? What? They plan on claiming the documents weren’t classified? The government - that Trump ran for four years - said they were. And he had no right to take them anyway! Aargh!

I don’t want to hear how “well-respected” this or that lawyer representing Trump is. Uh, duh. Remember Barr and Durham? They were “well-respected” too.

Most classified documents cases take a long time. Add in the special circumstances of a former President defendant, and there’s no way Jack Smith’s prosecution goes to trial before the election.

Okay, people, show biz writers and Hollywood actors are on strike. Only one thing to do now with your spare time - read books! And (shameless self-promotion), I just happen to have written some you might enjoy.

Good for you, Rory! McIlroy said he’d retire before being forced to play for LIV golf.

First the writers, and now the actors are going on strike. Yikes! There won’t be anything new to watch while I sit in my air-conditioned living room procrastinating over writing another chapter of my WIP.
