Because when you get right down to it, it’s the lack of time living in the real world that keeps the politicians from acting like they live in the real world. I used to think that the mask mania would end after the election, but now I am thinking that the mask hysteria and lockdowns will continue until the current governor or big-city mayor is replaced before the masks are no longer required.
Impeachment was a joke. No crime identified and totally partisan. It must not poll well. The RNC must bring it up and connect it to the ongoing coup attempt starting with Operation Hurricane and then the Russia hoax.
I wonder what percentage of my donations to the Trump campaign are spent in mailings. I just go to the post office once per week and have multiple requests for donations to the Trump campaign in the box and a few for state candidates. It has to be a significant amount of the money donated that could be funneled for use elsewhere. Someone somewhere is spending lots of campaign money for redundant mailings.
Left a big saucepan of blackberry jam in the frig...maybe I can get permission to retreive it.
Thanks!
See my tag line, Dan!
When is Rove not in his Bush mode? He always has a snarky response to whatever Trump is doing. GW won in spite of Rove.
In a just world, this arrogant, self-praising, pompous piece of shit would be totally shamed, yet here he comes to try to “splain” his treason.
Tim Scott on Futures, talking hope about US economy, hope for school choice, opportunity zones. $75 Billion in the private sector, (RATs section 8 spending, more welfare) He ends his comments and introduces Kevin McCarthy....Maria laughs.
McCarthy: We’re going to tackle China, we don’t produce our own penecillin, make our cities safe again.
Maria asking Tim Scott about the “African-American” vote. Scott says 2/3rds of blacks support school choice. Obama/Biden attacked and opposed school choice.
Biden crime bill locked up more blacks, promises 2 Trillion in new taxes.
Better catch this rapid-fire tat-team presentation.
Maria: “China wants Biden in the White House”.
The trick would be to find the right amount of increase in order to actually increase total revenue without scaring away volume. I'm sure the revenue management types at USPS are right on it /s.
The Post Office is an 1800s dinosaur that needs to be put out of its misery.
Not one hard question will be asked. The only good thing I can see is he is so arrogant, he thinks he can talk his way out of anything, and will reveal something the Durham folks can use against him.
Well Trump’s sister is a real angel, no?
The morning shows all telling about it.
I hear it was a 15 hour tape.
Which confuses me.
I think it’s all fake to help the niece sell her book.
I like this post but one small quibble.
I don’t think the media is paid off so much as they are part of the “movement” and believe their own spew. It has gotten worse. Back in 2016 some NY Times journalist said they had to report antagonistically against Trump because he was a monster.
They’ve all taken this advice to heart and it is part of journalistic ethics today. No lie, no distortion is too low. In their minds, it’s OK to punch a Nazi. Trump, and by extension, all of us, are that Nazi. This explains their love of Antifa and BLM, too.
The media are fellow travelers of the communist movement, and hate the USA.
Hmmmm...veddy intadesting...
Good morning, Pat. The USPS is the deliverer of last resort. By law, it must provide service to everyone no matter where they live. UPS and FedEx can drop packages into the USPS rather than spend money to deliver to these costly, distant, rural destinations. It is cheaper for UPS and FedEx who are, in effect, being subsidized by the USPS (read taxpayer). The USPS loses money on every delivery. It must change.
First class mail is declining due to the internet, electronic bill payment, etc. The USPS must come up with replacement revenue thru increased rates, new services, etc. and greater efficiency. And remember that the US population is rapidly increasing. We had 281 million people in 2000 and will be over 330 million this year, i.e., close to 50 million increase.
Torrential rainfall in China this month has flooded over a hundred cities, displaced millions of people, and stoked fears of a possible “black swan event” in the form of the famous Three Gorges Dam collapsing. Such would be a generational catastrophe that could potentially overshadow even the global pandemic.
China’s central Hubei province — capital Wuhan, the origin of COVID-19 — is currently facing its second disaster this year. While the middle of the year is typically the rainy season for the country, the downpour this year has been among the strongest in decades and has continued unabated past its usual annual conclusion in mid-July. The result has been an overflowing of China’s vital Yangtze River and inundation of the countryside surrounding Wuhan in the worst floods the country has seen since 1998.
The smaller dam’s failure had not been reported by local media, raising questions of what the Chinese government could be hiding about the Three Gorges.
Over 23 million people have been affected or displaced since July, at least 141 have been killed, and property damage currently stands at about $10 billion.

Above is the open for a good piece by the Spectator on the Three Gorges Dam.It's about a month old at this point. Which might as well be ten years for all that has happened.The dam continues to degrade with water running under it around it and soon some question will it run over it.Or will it just collapse. No one knows.
All we do know is that tragedy is on the way as earth- quakes continue and as we have learned with the ups and downs of dam levels earth quakes are created. This alone may well be enough to witness the demise of the Three Gorges.
So far thousand of homes have been flooded or destroyed and cities like Wuhan have had flood waters for over a month.
At stake 400 million people,one of the biggest bread baskets food wise for China,nuclear plants in the region,big pharma production areas and so much else it would take the rest of the afternoon to explain just how vital this one dam is to the country of China and eventually the world.
Why is it still ignored by the drivebys? No one knows. But when it happens it will be very difficult for the world to ignore.
Dang!
Sorry to hear that. Any word? I hope your place—not just your jam—makes it!!!
Now Nunes up on Maria....talking about the Post Office removing mail boxes conspiracy hoax. Pelosi brought Congress back to vote on this hoax
He says those boxes are being replaced or refurbished.
Maria asking about Obama and Hitlary communication on an unsecured illegal server.
“Everybody know” she did that...was not a mistake, military people are in jail for making a mistake...you or I would be in jail.
John Brennen interview with Durham?
His story doesn’t add up, hopefully Durham will reveal it. Who gave Brennen the fake RAT dossier?
Trey Gowdy will be up shortly with further information on that topic.
Linseed up next with breaking news, declass document proving FBI criminal activity.
