What's Going On?

A RIOT is declared!...so goes the challenged cities of Seattle and Portland...this is not what we want...but, it is a direct result of comments coming out of the mouth of Trump...inasmuch as boasting of watching the Portland Mayor squirm, in so many words...does he think that his storm trooping ways will work?...not hardly...just more examples of inadequacy in the White House...'push a button, and that will stop the problem'...as he gets out and plays some golf with his new buddy, Brett Favre...all the while, the Pacific Northwest urban areas are in chaos...the headlines, say 'throughout the country'...a horrific day for this 'leader'...Republicans, come to your senses...and do the right thing...

This has not been a main item in the national news, thus far...it will be today...stay tuned...be very aware as to how this guy responds...what he does...is he capable?...you can judge for yourself...thus far this morning, no Tweets concerning the situation...

Let's go elsewhere...

The WNBA kicked off their season yesterday...my interest is due to the Oregon grads playing in the league...prior to the initial game, as the Anthem was played...the players left the floor...the significance?...as to not kneel?...anyway, the game is fast paced...multi-talented gals, for sure...I dunno, I think I prefer the college play a bit more...

The mighty Padres...which has been my lead for the past 2 days...won their 2nd in a row!...undefeated!...as we got solid pitching again...Lamet, hurling at 100 mph!...and got dingers from Will Myers (really) and Manny...in a 5-1 victory...going for number 3 at 1:10...this afternoon...maybe, just maybe...

The ploy by the owners...fill some of the lower seats with cutouts of people...pipe in fake crowd noise...does it help?...does it work?...what's your take?...I have not heard from the players, like, their angle...

Snooki's song of the day...'Summer Breeze' by Seals and Croft...you know, we saw them in concert at the Oregon St Fair, a good while ago...they were like 45 minutes late...couldn't find the venue...BTW, the PNW lad informed me of a gem on YouTube...EJD's Teen Party...ah, something like that...a documentary on the days of ours back when...in Salem, Oregon...about my old 8th grade math teacher, Ed Dougherty...who turned into a major concert producer...as he brought all the major acts to the, get this, Salem Armory...Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Doors, Sonny and Cher, the Mamas and Papas...ah, the list goes on and on...fun flick to watch...and no, I didn't see myself in any of the old pix...but, I was there for many of 'em...'64-'70...

Sad note...the passing of Regis Philbin...88 years of age...he was a staple for many years on the pixels...

John Elway...the head of operations of the NFL Denver Broncos...he was the old QB star of the team, too...let this gem out today...'you kneel on my field and you are fired on the spot'...wonder who his vote goes to?...this ought to be a very interesting time for this franchise...

Stay cool, my friends...

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...
