    This seems pretty consistent with TFG's simplistic Mr. Bill mindset- Rip up informal handwritten notes and that changes the Army's priorities. Just like extending the cone of uncertainty with a Sharpie on a hurricane map, stopping COVID testing so the numbers go down. Superficial changes to established facts until they jibe with his mindset and his "gut" beliefs. Trump has always thought his will, regardless of how hideously out of step with reality it may be, reigns supreme. This is part and parcel to one of the most monstrous narcissistic megalomaniacs the world has ever seen.

    Reader's Magnet just published a commissioned article about my newest audiobook, The Doll Maker. It's just a hair under 1000 words and contains information about my novel and my writing process that you may not already know. Go check it out.

    "The former presidential (sic) pestered Walker, the former college football and NFL star, to falsely smear Warnock as a 'child molester'."

     Man, Trump projects more than AMC Cinemas.

    Speaking just for myself, we shouldn't have to rely on a vague, unformed and hardly guaranteed belief in the rule of law prevailing so our democracy can be saved. In the old days, we could rely on the old trope that the bad guy loses, as with WWII. But these days, it seems the bad guy wins a lot. And we need more than an abstract belief in the promise of the rule of law to sustain us.

     "Eric Meyer, editor of the Marion County Record, said the paper has received letters with concerns about transparency after newly-elected officials 'partied' on Election Day at a country club and allegedly did not let a reporter take pictures. The paper reported that Mayor-Elect Michael Powers 'yelled' at the reporter".

     Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

     This kind of thuggish, fascist behavior is like something right out of the 1933 Reichstag. At this rate, I fully expect that by the end of the year both chambers of Congress will be reshaped into an octagon.

     Leslie Jones is my new superhero.

     Vance forgot to mention that he had lobbed tear gas at them at the border, kept children in cages and insulted a federal judge that had ruled against him in the Trump U case because he was Mexican. He tried to get Mexico to pay for a wall that we, not they, wanted. And one of the Central Park Five that was falsely arrested, interrogated and convicted, the five young men that Trump wanted executed, was Latino. I'd hardly say that he "outmaneuvered Democrats".

     How much you want to bet she's also a Holocaust denier? The horrific videos of what Hamas did to those innocent Israelis are all over the internet. That poor 23 year-old girl from Germany who was at the festival was found murdered and partially decapitated. These are in the public record. What is this woman's problem?

     If you're a prosecutor, idiots like Harrison Floyd are the gift that keep on giving.

     I think it's hilarious that Mr. High and Mighty, who three years ago was once allowed to meet with Xi and other world leaders, is now pissing and moaning about conspiracy theories on a half-assed, failing social media dump like Truth Social. Really, he's probably throwing ketchup-impregnated Big Mac's at the walls at Mar a Lago, unable to understand in his baffled fury why Xi is talking to Biden instead of going to his tacky golf club to kiss the ring.

     The only Congressman who's Jew-ish is now fin-ished.

     I never thought I'd ever miss Tom Coburn or James Inhofe but here we are. (Tip o' the tinfoil hat to Constant Reader, CC)

     I think John Oliver has the best and the most balanced take on this whole clusterfuck. (Tip o' the tinfoil hat to Stan the Man Banos at BOATS)

     Man, I can smell the flop sweat of desperation all the way from Massachusetts. And finally...

     What few if any on Earth Two are doing is refuting what these women had said. That's notable.
