An Informal Advisor

Perhaps, you are seeing a familiar face...as the United States (sic) , WELL, let's adjust that some...trump's entourage in dealing with the Middle East...has a bloke in it...that has not gone through the riggers of being approved by Congress...yup, Jared Kushner...husband of Ivanka...that one...as he represents US, well, trump, in the dealings with Russia/Ukraine, Gaza, Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Israel...probably others, too...just how does Kushner qualify to do this?...in yet another betrayal of the Constitution, trump does it anyway...Kushner's title?...if there is one...Informal Advisor Role...an Intermediary in Diplomatic Relations assisting Steve Witkoff...

As I have been telling you...trump has being loading up the military and naval forces near Iran...now 2 aircraft carriers, and a dozen (+) battle ships...ready to attack, if given the orders...Iran is threatening back at the USA...for some reason, this is downplayed in the news...not sure why...it is BIG TIME!...the lady who has no fear, Kaitlyn Collins (CNN), did report on this last eve...hmmm, start a war without Congress?...what Constitution?...

Over the pond, in the UK...Prince (former) Andrew has been taken into custody...(on his 66th birthday to boot)...for his involvement in the Epstein Files...hmmm, as we await the DOJ of the US, to do the same to the blokes involved here...ha ha...DOI, I mean...as Pammi Bondi, is turning the other cheek...November and the mid term elections can't get here fast enough...

The beat has just begun...

The top 18 hospitals in California, were listed today...nice to see that ours is named...Scripps Mercy of San Diego...there are a number of hospitals in the SD area...so, that is terrific...

There is an epidemic of college hoop coaches sounding off on losses...blaming refs, their players, and anyone , but themselves...hmmm, they have paid pros playing for them...guess they think that they can get away with the words...they don't get fined like the NBA coaches do...if blatant enough, just get FIRED!...oops...

I can recall I was hopping mad after a game I coached...lost...and felt like the refs were biased...ha ha...well, back in the time...there were reporters at high school games...as I called in the game stats...that reporter was there...at the game...and asked for some quotes...I told him 'you know I can't comment on that'...he agreed...as we talked on the phone for an hour...no lie...and the article that he wrote, you would never know my animosity to the refs and the outcome...I owed him BIG TIME!...and every time I saw him after, we nodded...it was a good year...

The rumor out is that USD hoops HC, Steve Lavin, is getting the boot...not winning enough...a couple of years ago, he was 18-15...'what have you done for me lately?'...that level of play, is the hardest in hoops...harder than high school!...nearly impossible to get big talent at the school...imagine the recruiting...especially harder, when it is not easy to qualify to even get in...the coaching, is at it's finest...you work harder with less talent...and fuggit about the NIL...not enough dough to attract...

Social media...it's what you are on right now...reading the Horse...ah ha, one part of it...is to see trends...like clothing...and guess what?...back to the 70's...wide legged pants for the ladies...it's a 'new' 'old' thing...I like it...take a look at country sanger star, Lainey Wilson, who sports 'em...Manhattan liked it, and now that's the thang...get this, 'Spanx' has the newest...that's not polyester, is it?...

'Tehran' is such a terrific series...intense and unpredictable...but, the death of the producer, Dana Eden, has me doubting that Iran likes the show...suicide?...I doubt it...judging by the 2nd season finale...for sure...Apple TV, kids...

The LPGA...no wonder these ladies have such a short golf life span...their tourneys are all over the world...the travel must finally get to them...this week, in Thailand...on the other hand, the guys stay in the states, outside of one in Canada and one in Great Britain...this one for them, is at Riviera...LA...

The rains...not as much as what the weather ladies predicted...one more day of it...(I guess) and back to the links...I needed a break from it...ha ha, for all youse Oregonians, I am sorry for that statement...
