We could use a little heat back up this way! I switched the furnace on yesterday! At least we’ve had lots of rain.
They’re your spirit animal :-)
I guess mine is dogs....then horses.
Cats can be a lil too vindictive ... sometimes š¹
Judy....I wish I could send you all of this “excessive” heat.
Our regular heat is bad/hot enough!!
Hubs is ready to pack it up, and, go to CO š±
Well, just for a visit.
I’d take some of it, for sure lol. My furnace is still on, and I’m back to my electric blanket lol. It’s the wind and the rain - makes it feel colder and raw. I guess it’s about 60F.....we were up to steady 75 to 85, which was nice.
I had forgotten to watch Tucker until I saw your comment. That was great!
I saw that President Trump sat down for an interview with Brett Baier.....to be aired June 19th.
And I’m going to the Little Bohemium Lodge. That’s where the FBI completely botched a raid to get Dillinger and Baby Face Nelsom. Bullet holes are still there.
“With a federal agent and a civilian dead, and four more severely wounded, including two more civilians, and the complete escape of the Dillinger gang, the FBI came under severe criticism, with calls for FBI director J. Edgar Hoover’s resignation and a widely circulated petition demanding Purvis’s suspension.”

A road trip to Maine would be a great time!
Back
Hmmm....I do wonder how that went.
Baier is a solid lefty.
I’ll have to tune in!
Thx.
Believe it, or not....I have a lap quilt on, right now....mostly for the dog, who is sitting right next to us....but, once the sun goes down, it actually gets a little chilly, with the a/c on.
I guess that’s why they call it ‘refrigerated’ air ... :)
Glad you have that electric blanket, on standby!
Tucker Carlson: FOX News Fires Veteran Employee Who Posted āDictator Wannabeā on Chyron Following Trumpās Arraignment ā Had Him Clean Out His Desk and Clear the Building https://t.co/1RAiFOzCKuā The Gateway Pundit (@gatewaypundit) June 16, 2023
From your link....
Tucker Carlson: Beneath those videos, at the bottom of the screen, Foxās banner read this way quote wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested. Those words were up for less than 30 seconds, but the effect was immediate. Inside Fox, the women who run the network panicked. First, they scolded the producer who put the banner on the screen. Less than 24 hours after that, he resigned. Heād been at Fox for more than a decade. He was considered one of the most capable people in the building. He offered to stay for the customary two weeks, but Fox told him to clear out his desk and leave immediately. Then the company issued a public apology for the 27 2nd long wannabe dictator line.
The producer got canned for labeling Joe Biden a wannabe dictator on the day he had his leading political opponent arrested⦠And FOX News apologized.

- George Washington
On this day in history, June 15, 1775, George Washington is appointed head of the new Continental Army. Congress created the Continental Army on June 14 and began discussing who should be appointed as Commander-in-Chief. John Hancock hoped for the position, but the more experienced Washington was elected unanimously the following day.
John Adams pressed for Washington as the Commander, partly because he believed someone from Virginia should hold the position. Virginia was the most populous colony and the southern colonies would be more likely to support a Virginian. In addition, Washington’s military experience from the French and Indian War was a decisive factor.
On June 16, Washington gave a short acceptance speech to Congress in which he expressed his grave reserves about his own qualifications for the position, but he accepted nonetheless and expressed his thanks for their trust in him. Washington then told them he would not take any salary during his time as Commander-in-Chief, but would only accept reimbursement for expenses. Washington then received his official commission on the 17th.
On the 18th, from Philadelphia, he wrote a letter to his wife Martha, informing her of his appointment and that he must leave for Boston immediately. He told her that he had not sought the position and had actually tried to avoid it, but that he felt duty bound to serve at the request of his countrymen. He also told Martha that he had updated his will and hoped to be home by the end of the year.
The following week, Washington left for Boston where New England militia were laying siege to the city. 6,000 British soldiers were trapped inside the city, while 10,000-15,000 militia, under the command of Massachusetts General Artemas Ward, surrounded the city. The militia was made up mostly of untrained farmers, merchants and artisans. They were underequipped and ill fed. Disease ran rampantly through their camps. Washington faced a formidable job of turning these regular citizens into an army that could defeat the vastly superior British army.
Much of these original militia members were absorbed into the Continental Army. They came from Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire. As the war progressed they would be joined by their brethren from the rest of the colonies and develop into a formidable force in their own right. One of Washington’s greatest triumphs of the American Revolution was the turning of this ragtag bunch into a real army. Washington’s reputation as a commander and leader of men in the army eventually led to his being elected the first President of the United States.
