In the Heat of Summer

I went upstairs to get a bite to eat. As soon as I did, a wave of heat hit me. We have 2 air conditioners. One for the bottom floor and one for the main level. It's nice and cool down here. I ask my wife if she felt the heat. She said no because she had just come in. Of course, we are having one of those hot Florida days. I fed the animals this morning so I could avoid the heat. We are fortunate to have found a good air service. She called and even said we have not had it serviced. He said we did not need to. It's only a couple of years old. He said he would send someone out. That is great. In the past, it would be an emergency service and they would have gotten on us to have it serviced or just told us the warranty was voided. I tell you it is hard to find good companies for service things. If you find one, hold on to them.

The Next Bagdad Bob

So trump's propaganda spokesperson is stepping down. Get ready for the next one! They will be worse than she was. It will be like Spicer on Steroids. They will have to show overwhelming devotion for telling lies to protect dear leader junior. I could not even imagine. Maybe one of the psycophants at Fox "news". Or one of his loyal kool aid drinkers at his clubs. Probably one of their female daughters.

Life as a Meme

Trump has done it again. He has given the internet something to meme about. His latest has been a great boon for them. Escaping to a plane on a food cargo container. They write themselves. Look for them. I have seen a couple. One showing him handing out snacks from the Stewards cart on a plane. One where he is holding a container of Orange Chicken. One shows an orange trail behind a container going to a plane. People can be very imaginative. I'm surprised he is not suing the paper for revealing his "daring" escape from a situation he did not set up.

The Ultimate Pot Calling the Kettle Black

 Our secretary of the state is calling out birthright citizenship.  Well guess what?  His parents were illegals when he was born in our country.  Does that mean ICE should deport him?  His parents did commit a crime, just like they say others are doing.  It's so sad how our country has gotten.  We are running off doctrines of racists and calling it normal.  Trump was selling housing to Russians for the same purpose.  I guess when they pay you millions, you can look the other way.  As for the secretary's parents, I bet they had money.  

Everyone Called It an Upset. Here's Why They Were Wrong

 So, this title sounds like something trump would say. His anonymous "everyone says".  Well, Wisconsin had a primary yesterday.  The Democratic Socialist lost.  The headlines I saw this morning are all about the upset win.  Then, I look at the numbers and she only lost by a little over a 1,000.  Is that an upset?  Maybe for establishment Democrats.  I see a close race.  I still see the problems the establishment refuses to recognize.  People want change.  They do not want status quo and politicians trying to sing kum by ya with republicans who have refused to work with Democrats.  The party really needs to work on its strategy.  If they do not and do like they always do, they will turn off people.  They will vote for the next radical that has a crazy vision, even if it is all lies.  

Midnight Express 2: The McDonald's Escape

 I saw the story that trump had to escape Turkey by a catering cart.  Now, was it a McDonald's cart?  He says he was escaping Iranians, but I'm wondering if he was just too hungering and lazy to walk on the plane.  So, they called McDonald's and arranged a pick up.  Doesn't he realize how weak this makes him?  I thought he was the "big" man who stood up to his enemies!  Nope, just another bunker dweller hiding from the public.  I guess he only stands tall when he organizes the situation!  

America Needs to Learn History

 You'd think we would have learned from Vietnam to beware of insurgent situations or other areas we know nothing about.  Iraq we had insurgency because we failed to learn about the situation of all the people and religions.  In Afghanistan, the people we helped deter the Russians knew how to deter the US as well.  Now Iran.  Iraq tried to take them over.  After many years, they gave up.  Israel and our country have done plenty to no avail.  Then we get someone who thinks that we can bomb them into compliance.  As you can see, it has failed.  If you think Iran will give up because of sanctions, you know nothing.  They know that the US will cry uncle before they will.  They live hardship.  It will be nothing to them.  One day, we will have educated people running the government again.  If we go into a conflict, hopefully, they will do the research.
