I have not yet seen Les Miserable. I know the song of angry men and I have read the book. I loathed that book, but it does have a place in history.
FWIW, in Gone With the Wind, when the women were gathered, waiting the return of their men, the book Melanie was reading while the ladies embroidered was Les Miserable. The book was read by many Southerners during and after the War of Northern Aggression because it struck a chord with them.
I’ve seen it several times. “Bring Him Home” always reduces me to a blubbering mess.

🧵Democrats have a “Weekend at Bernie’s”-style double dilemma... /1
1. Diane Feinstein has to be kept in place so that Adam Schiff can inherits her seat next election. If she leaves early, due to poor health, Schiff misses out... /2
2. Similarly, Joe Biden needs to stay in place long enough to ensure the unelectable Kamala Harris can’t take his place. The swap-out for one of the jostling Young Turks will be a finely calculated operation, likely at or after Aug. 2024 DNC convention, one month after the GOP’s. /3
This is a high risk strategy on both fronts, aimed at keeping an ailing octogenarian and an ailing nonagenarian somehow upright, and relying on a complicit media not to report the obvious. But the party that just won a Senate race with a brain-damaged candidate, who could barely speak, obviously thinks it can pull it off. /4

So the National Archives could find President Trump’s material quickly but somehow missed 5400 emails from Vice President Biden’s archives. Oh and those only happen to be the 5400 emails that involve business, corruption and Hunter Biden. Fire the archivist now

NEW: 12-year old Colorado student smirks after getting kicked out of class for wearing the ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ flag on his backpack, teacher falsely claims the flag is linked to slavery.
This kid knows more about history than the teacher 😂
“So they’re the reason that they do not want the flag is due to its origins with slavery and slave trade. That is what was, um, that’s the reasoning behind them.”
FACT CHECK: The Gadsden flag originated from the American Revolution when the U.S. fought for their independence from Great Britain.
It is now a symbol for standing up against authoritarian rule… kinda like this woman.

For those asking for an update:
- Jaiden decided to go back to school today. With his patch will in place. He said he’d do a sit-in if necessary to protest.
- Two law firms have stepped forward to assist as necessary to fight the viewpoint discrimination.
- Lots of media interest. Mom and son will likely be on Hannity tonight, other outlets covering too
- No known response yet from the school or district offices
- Colorado governor tweeted about it, disagreeing with the school. (No word yet if he’ll pick up a phone and tell them to knock it off.)
- Jaiden sent me a video telling me his favorite Tuttle Twins book 🎉 (It’s the Creature from Jekyll Island.)
- He is campaigning to be school president. The tri-corner hat is part of his shtick. Super patriotic kid!

Hey there “Nightshift”....
The thought of the country voting Biden back in (without fraud) boggles the mind. I still don’t believe that Fetterman really won - is it possible that he actually beat Oz?
Feinstein is beyond incapacitated.....they’re likely pumping the same juice into her that they are Biden. Unreal.
Good for Jaiden! It was funny to see him standing by the teacher’s car, covered in leftie stickers lol. I hope he wins his election! Ok, back to bed for me.
There seem to be a few of us vintage adults in this room. Does anybody remember a coke commercial around 1968 - 1972, somewhere in that time, that did not have any words? They just showed a gorgeous mountain stream with the glass bottle of coke bobbing around. You caught the message that coke was clean and refreshing as that mountain stream in springtime. I have not found that commercial again. It didn’t run for a long time.
Good morning, lysie!
That is the bestest looking BACON!
Is there anything else on the plate?
Thank you!!

The Battle of Rhode Island is lost
____________________________________________________________
On this day in history, August 29, 1778, the Battle of Rhode Island is lost. Newport, Rhode Island was one of America’s most important ports prior to and during the American Revolution. After capturing New York City in September of 1776, the British captured Newport in December, recognizing that its harbor would be an ideal staging ground for an assault on New York. Newport would be in British hands for the next three years.
Rhode Island’s rebel government immediately sought to raise troops and supplies to retake Newport. In early 1778, Major General John Sullivan was given charge of the Rhode Island troops and ordered to assault the city in July. Meanwhile, France declared war on the British and allied with the Americans. The first French soldiers arrived in America with Admiral Charles Hector, the Comte d’Estaing. Unable to cross the bar into New York’s harbor, D’Estaing sailed for Newport to assist Sullivan.
After news of the French involvement, Sullivan had great success in raising militia members to assist in the fight. The Marquis de Lafayette and General Nathanael Greene arrived to assist in the battle. The American generals had over 10,000 troops at their disposal.
D’Estaing’s fleet arrived at Newport on August 8th and began unloading 4,000 troops on Conanicut Island the next day after consulting with the generals. Sullivan successfully ferried his 10,000 troops onto Aquidneck Island on the 9th. British General, Sir Robert Pigot, began fortifying Newport from within.
The tide changed when British Admiral Richard Howe arrived with reinforcements. On the 10th, Admiral D’Estaing quickly reloaded his troops and sailed out to do battle with Howe’s fleet. As the two forces maneuvered, a great storm arose that tossed the fleets around for two days. Separated and damaged, both fleets had to regroup and sail to harbor for repairs. Howe’s fleet sailed back to New York, while D’Estaing abandoned his mission to help in the attack on Newport and sailed for Boston.
The departure of D’Estaing greatly angered the Americans. Many in Sullivan’s army deserted, thinking it impossible to capture the city without French help. By late August, and already surrounding Newport, Sullivan decided to abandon the attack, his force greatly depleted by desertion. On the 29th, General Pigot began pursuing and caught up to the Americans who were dug in on the northern tip of the island.
The Battle of Rhode Island began as the Americans shot at their pursuers. On the island’s main east road, Brigadier General John Glover stopped the British advance. On the main western road, Colonel Christopher Greene’s 1st Rhode Island Regiment, the Continental Army’s only regiment made up entirely of African-Americans and Indians, repelled several Hessian attacks, inflicting so much destruction that the nearby creek was called Bloody Run Creek because it ran red with Hessian blood.
The next day, the entire American force was successfully ferried across to Tiverton and Bristol, bringing the Battle of Rhode Island to a close. The battle was the largest engagement of the war in New England in terms of men involved with nearly 17,000 fighting. It was a tactical tie, but Britain continued to hold Newport for another year, until it abandoned the city to focus its efforts on New York and a new campaign to take the southern colonies.
