Plight of the Union

Any time the President stands in front of Congress and proclaims that the Union is the strongest ever...there have been times, that it has been true...and for sure, make that, BEEN...like in the past...cuz now, we have chaos...he has thrown the country into the worst polarization since the 50's...relying on the Republicans to follow his ways...has to be reluctantly, right?...

I am referring to this evenings, State of the Union address...that Trump will bellow out to the masses...how civil will the opposition be?...or, how much disgust will they show?...but, even more so, is the speech itself...and this is what I fear....that he will try to make a big statement...

There are 2 agenda items that could emerge...the first is that he is going to ramble on about the need for his Trump Wall...and then proclaim that he is going to declare an emergency and will fund it that way...the Democrats may boo, or worse, walk out of the House...a first for the floor...

Or, secondly, he may bring up the Venezuelan conflict...that we are going to help preserve the stability of the area...and to quell the Maduro dictatorship, and support the Opposition leader...he is going to send troops into the area to solve the problem...well, so to speak...HOWEVER...if this is his big announcement, then he would be going against what Russia has asked him to do, 'stay out of the Venezuela situation'...hmmm...

Maybe I am wrong...and he will do neither of the two...and he will preach that the country needs to band together and become ONE...forget the pettiness and get behind him as the Supreme Ruler of the land...'trust me'...oh my...yes, I fear the worst...whatever that may be...

After his speech, is the Democrats version of what's what...the chosen one, is Stacey Abrams...to air the oppositions view...an interesting choice...as she just lost a highly contested Governor race in Georgia...hmmm...

The Futures were UP this morning...well, there you go...

In the NBA, we have the Lake Show in a humongous effort to obtain the Brow(Anthony Davis)...to pair him up with LeBron...the latest package deal, included 3 of their present youngins, and 2 high draft picks...and cash...I think the draft picks may be the key to the deal, if the Pelicans go for it...here is where I go with this...LeBron is on his downward cycle...the Lakers are in a total disarray...more just published on this...the Lakers reportedly put up Kuzma, Ball, Ingram, Rondo, Stephenson, Beasley, and 2 first round picks for Davis and Hill....then would wave Hill...WTH?...

Hey, speaking of youth in the league...the Sac Kings are on the rise...with 3 very talented kids in the mix...really...stay tuned...

One more thang in the NBA...Kobe Bryant responded to a Q on the Beard...'what he is doing is awesome, but not for winning a championship'...the ball is in Harden's hands way too often...and more from this author, he doesn't play a lick of defense...selfish ball...

As I was cruising' threw my reads this am...I noticed an item out of Salem, Oregon...that the schools were closed today...snow?...as we, here in the southland, are embracing another round of that rain stuff...boo...'but we need it'...

On me dashboard on the Lexus, a reminder of 'take me in to the dealer' pops up...it's the oil change due date...been putting it off for awhile...and then...the car won't start...well, barely...luckily it did finally turn over...and off we went to our local Jiffy Lube...I'm gonna tell ya right here and now...they do a GREAT job...replaced the battery as well as got everything back to snuff...for a fraction of the cost if I took it to a Lexus dealership...really...

While waiting in the 'lobby' of the Jiffy Lube, they had the pixel blaring...the Wendy Williams Show...who was not there...and some stand in was hosting...egads, people actually watch this?...well, it almost seemed like me Blog, but live...oh, so now I get it...forgive me, you who are followers ...

And...we have been searching for a new mattress...shopping...as the pillow top one we have now, is not doing it's thing...so, we have been looking for the 86 inch foam ones...I jest...like 10-14 inch ones...that also, say they are cool to sleep on...lawdy, there are so many of them out there...how do you know?...I have done the review stuff on the web net...I mean, you can get some 5 stars ones that are like $600...any ideas?...the concept of the hybrid is interesting, too....anyone out there have one?...the name brands are asking like 4 thou...I dunno...

Everybody now, let's all join me in the only dance I am good at, 'The Round Dance'...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
