    Keep in mind he’s also a Peruvian citizen and lived 20 years there.

    I waiting for the deep dish pizza with ceviche or the meat lovers with lomo saltado.

    Yeah in our parents age formal wear for men meant tailcoat whereas semi formal meant just a tux. At least as far as evening wear went.

    That sounds like good advice.

    At my age I never feel embarrassed when overdressed. Underdressed is a different story.

    I wear jacket to my son’s orchestra concerts.

    Of course it helps that Mayla always dresses to the nines.

    I tolerated it so well they let me out right after my infusion finished rather than keeping me overnight just in case.

    I did have a last minute incident. They took out the PICC line and wrapped it per protocol and gave me my discharge papers. As I was getting my things together to leave my room it suddenly started gushing blood. I put a towel on it, raised it, and called for help. They sorted me out and rewrapoed it but the floor looked like a crime scene. Mostly because it was wrapped so well a whole lot of blood was behind the plastic and when it finally burst a ton came out.

    But I’m good and sitting in my hotel thinking about where to go for dinner.

    My better half tells me he has Peruvian citizenship so they’re claiming him too.

    Probably helped him get some votes.

    I think if they did some wmd-like thing in the US, Trump would level Tehran within 24 hours.

    It does seem like one last opportunity to embarrass him. Rent an actual clown suit.

    @jon-nyc said in Elon’s report card:

    My guess is this little fact alone will mean Doge’s net effect will have been to increase the deficit.

    And I don’t mean the entire Trump admin with his big beautiful bill, of course that will be a world historic deficit increase.

    I mean just Doge.

    They added 30K new positions between 2023 and the end of Biden’s term. Now, all of those weren’t auditors, but quite a few were.

    That never happened. It would be politically untenable.

    Haha Copper how’d you get Horace’s login?

    Anyway, as Horace well knows, to say ‘hiring as many auditors as you need until you maximize revenues is not politically tenable’ is quite different from saying ‘hiring any more auditors is politically untenable’.

    Having said that the political fight around the 30k was quite significant.

    I’d wear a blazer and slacks personally. But I doubt you’d be out of place dressing more casual.

    Sure, but the baseline budget deficit figures would have taken that into account whether they were all auditors or only half. So the point about Doge remains the same.
