The Ambassador


Just thought you ought to know...good morning, kids...it is Wednesday the 18th of December, 2024...just a week away from Christmas, and 5 days til Festivus...like for the rest of us...so, we awakened to yet another appointment to a foreign embassy...as trump has continued his change in leadership around the world...doesn't that seem funny?...no, funny is not the word...it is more of a religious proliferation...like in the 1800's, where the Catholics, Protestants, and soon after, the Mormons...spread the good word out...this time it is Maga morose...

Herschel Walker is the latest Ambassador...to the Bahamas...interesting...as he (trump) is honoring those who stuck by him...by giving them jobs for their loyalty...the list is growing...of course, it got me thinking....what really is this position and what do they do?...a time for teaching, assuming, like me...I didn't know much about it...other than, when attacked, the embassy destroys all files, and gets outta dodge...from flicks, I got this...

The Embassy...we, the USA, have 173 of them...in capital cities all around the world...many of the more combative countries, we even have compounds...the leader of each is the Ambassador...which is the person named by the present, or in this case, the Prez-elect, serves in that spot...which gets me to the very great series on Netflix, the Diplomat...what is the deal?...well, the Ambassador is one step above the Diplomat...you know, chain of command...

Their function?...to help with the USA citizens in these foreign countries...and to bridge a gap between the country and our leadership, when needed...that is the written part...it just has to be a safe haven for our multitude of spies...why then, all the shredding?...right...who protects the Embassy?...here we go, in some cases...Marines...well, in ALL cases that there is a need...judging by what I see, it's got be in EVERY Embassy...especially now...hint hint...

Okay, class dismissed...Embassies 101...

Pivoting...

The Bucks won the Cup, over the Thunder...JCC...did not watch a single possession of this farce...

In the Match...saw 3 holes and got bored...Rory and Scotty beat LIV...OK, it's more fun to watch hacks play then these really good guys...BTW, they got paid in Bitcoin...Scotty was confused...as I am...can you buy anything with this?...

The recent highly publicized shooting, er killings...so dreadful...and deadful...the 15 yr old girl, how on earth did she get access to a gun?...and the CEO killer, he is lucky he is in NY...well, not yet...but when he finally gets extradited...he does not face the death penalty...in that state...

Honda and Nissan want to merge?...OK, so what?...price fixing the concern?...

Just in, with the crypto values rising...luxury brands are debating about accepting payment this way...talking high end fashion brands and retailers...ah, does Amazon qualify?...that's as high end as I go...or Costco...that's it...

I just sent a check to the Human Fund, for 100 bitcoin...

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...
