So Trum has “lost” MAGA? You’re the arbiter of whether or not that’s so? Maybe stop watching Morning Joe.

“So Trump has “lost” MAGA?”

He’s quickly getting the support back. Just some slip ups. No need to be so concerned.

I spent some time in Athens Greece... the train from the airport and the local metro train system all have Korean trains.

Maybe California should legalize prostitution as they do in Nevada. Give the working girls some protection and limit, control and tax the houses. Why should cartels get all the money? Make it legal in only a few counties—it could revive some areas. Nude beaches should be legalized as well as well as make it legal for women who wish to go topless or breast feed their babies in public OK. If men can go without shirts—so should women!(Most will not elect to do this).

Train, shpain. They are still arguing over who is going to buy and sell the dirt the tracks are going to lay on.

How’s that whole kicking the Moors out of France going for you, anyhow?

Worked out pretty well for me, and through my grandson's reign (that boy was the apple of my eye). Subsequent generations of my progeny have been... less impressive.

Just got back from a 2 week bike trip in the Massif Central then down the Rhone to Avignon and Nimes. Everything was okay until Nimes, where your Jewish Correspondent found himself speedily pedaling 15 minutes through Arabia to safety.

I confess that I enjoy an occasional bottle of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, but my visits to France in recent years have trended further west. Normandy and the lower Loire valley, mostly. Nimes is too close to the Mediterranean (which is becoming a beachhead for North African types and fellow unsavories, as you can attest). Please take steps to prevent your head from ending up in a duffle bag.

he rambles a lot, yes

and the Epstein stuff wasn’t the primary topic of the interview...so there is a bunch of other conversation by design in it

still,
EW’s remarks do sound (imho, anyway) credible....and they mesh pretty well with what we know (or maybe think we know) about the socalled “Deep State” which is centered, it seems, in the intellig and Snake Dept arenas...

consistent facts, or rather consistent claims or conjectures...?

cheers,

California, once the Golden State, is now the illustration you see in the dictionary under “failure” and “politicide”

RE: Number of feet of rail laid—zero.

That keeps the math problems of counting them to a minimum.

Sort of like counting the Biden network of EV charging stations. Might have to take off our socks to finish counting them. $7.5 Billion-—minus 10% for the Big Guy. 💸💸

How much was the US commitment and how much was state commitment? How much has actually been spent by either party? How much of it has actually been built, and is any of it useable already, or is all money spent now a total waste? Also, whatever became of Boston’d big dig?

Yes, a little off.

But remember math is racist. That’s why few of the accountants studied it and errors in projections were made.

Why does President Trump keep bringing up the Epstein file, saying he barely knew the guy. This just gives the media and others another chance to post all those public photos of the two of them partying together. Self defense can be good, but sometimes silence is better.
