    @jon-nyc Yes he is, but he probably has reason to be worried. President Trump says someone is bad - automatic 20-30% vote for the opponent, regardless of what the truth is.

    Interesting. Never heard of that before. But I am not sure that the middle class is collapsing. I have not really seen signs of that. I have hear that the "wealth gap" is getting larger and larger however.

    Looks a bit formulaic. The A-Team of Holocaust literature.

    Overall I think she does a great job, based on what Trump expects from her. It's a ridiculously hard job... you need to be aware of all news stories all at once, with the President's position all at once, can't say the wrong thing, need to know a hundred reporter names and affiliates, she's also the mom of a young child... being a parent is incredibly hard by itself, especially for working moms. More importantly, I noticed the other day she randomly got more tan... I'm actually curious where/how the spray tan machine is set up in the white house (no joke).

    Well? What did Trump have to say for himself? Oh, and was he mad at Trump or mad about something that he wanted Trump to fix?

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/duterte-arrest-icc-1.7480155 Philippine officials say arrested former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte has left Manila on a plane and he will be turned over to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague. A plane carrying Duterte left Manila late Tuesday. Duterte was arrested after arriving with his family from Hong Kong at the Manila international airport Tuesday morning on a warrant from the ICC. The ICC has said it would pursue an investigation of suspected crimes against humanity related to Duterte's role in overseeing a bloody "war on drugs" that killed thousands of Filipinos.

    Giants roll the dice... https://nypost.com/2025/03/10/sports/giants-sign-paulson-adebo-in-nfl-free-agency-to-fill-major-need/ The guy is a good starting corner, especially in man to man, but his season was cut short by a broken femur. Not many guys come back all the way from a femur break.

    [image: 1741715631741-12bee9b1-1150-4eea-9f71-3ac4ae136d16-image.png] I belong to a University Club and we have monthly books we read and then discuss--this book is in the "classic" area. We also have reading groups for modern fiction, historical fiction and non-fiction and maybe other things too. It introduces me to books I normally would not think of reading for myself. Following the dialogue in this book is more difficult than reading Chaucer.

    I am not without appreciation where it is warranted. I did send Trump and Elon both an E-card of thanks for the fork they offered me. It had puppies and flowers in it.
