---SNIP--- Some of the Democrat's most reliable political contributors — including unions, wealthy executives and Democratic Party officials — say they still plan to give money to his expected campaign for a fourth term in office. The governor is planning a $10,000 per-person fundraiser for June 29 in New York City. It will be one of his first big, in-person events to raise money for his campaign since the coronavirus pandemic began. He’s also hosting a $25 per-person virtual fundraiser in July.

"There's an old saying. When the law is on your side, pound the law. When the facts are on your side, pound the facts. If neither the facts or law are on your side, pound the table." So Adam Schiff summarized a quip that has been evolving for at least a century. And so the Democrats did in the Ohio State House when Ohio State Representative Jena Powell proposed an amendment to protect women's sports. It's hard to believe this ruckus took place in what is supposed to be the deliberative, rulemaking body for the state of Ohio. Where do...

Okay, I am looking at the 2021 Congressional CALENDAR and I see only three more days that Congress (House) is in session before it goes into recess until the middle of July when it goes back into session for 9 days until the end of the month. . Then the House is in recess for ALL of August and does not come back into session until September 20. Remember the House has to pass the Reconciliation Pork Package FIRST before it goes to the Senate.Since the DEADLINE to pass in the Senate is September 30, just how can this be...

About 20 years ago, I wrote in an opinion piece for an online magazine: “Liberals are the self-righteous, led by the self-important, for the benefit of the self-interested.” I still believe this to be true. But I also believe: Republicans are the complacent, led by the content, for the benefit of those concerned only about taxes. As a case in point, I would like to present Critical Race Theory, transsexuality, and the Loudoun County (Va.) School Board. Until these issues received heightened attention recently, the parents of the Loudoun County School District were content to elect politically and socially liberal...

Oh yeah-- America stinks and...

Now, do understand, I realize that we cannot drop the dollar with the garbage politicians that we have in office. Inflation would go Venezuela and everybody would suffer. I totally understand that we cannot do that at all. So, I realize that we can't do this, so I don't want to discuss about how our politicians cannot be trusted and all that, because I know that. However, my thought is what if we cleaned up the deficit financing and dropped the dollar to pay a bunch of debt back. Then we tightened up the federal financial policy until the dollar...

Explanation: It may look like a paper Moon. Sailing past a canvas Sun. But those are not cardboard clouds. And it's not make believe. The featured picture of an orange colored sky is real -- a digital composite of two exposures of the solar eclipse that occurred earlier this month. The first exposure was taken with a regular telescope that captured an overexposed Sun and an underexposed Moon, while the second image was taken with a solar telescope that captured details of the chromosphere of the background Sun. The Sun's canvas-like texture was brought up by imaging in a very...
