Oh, the ache! Not my again. Syracuse’s loss final evening. Louisville decimated Syracuse 85-61.
An indication of how unhealthy issues have turn into is the cellular phone texting involving me and different Syracuse followers. We have now been texting by way of Syracuse video games for years. Hip, hip hooray or shit!
Now nothing. Why? As a result of we’ve all turn into “dying” followers. Not actually, after all. Both not watching each sport or too upset to even convey our unhealthy emotions to one another.
I by no means thought at the present time would come.
The Los Angeles wildfires. Ongoing. Twenty 4 hours a day. Extra sturdy winds on the way in which which is able to trigger fires to unfold much more. The fires transfer with distinctive pace. Right here, there and in every single place. New evacuation orders fixed.
The insurance coverage disaster I warned is already being mentioned. Changing into evident. Noises being made about not sufficient cash to cowl all of the losses. Out there funds will likely be inadequate to no extra accessible. Inadequate funds imply insolvency. It should go away a lot of policyholders relying solely on federal funds which may also attain a restrict. What then?
A catastrophe nobody paid ample consideration to taking place.
Pete Hegseth’s listening to earlier than the Senate Armed Companies Committee occurred yesterday. He was buried by the Democrats, held up by the Republicans. A disgraceful listening to general. The Senate failing in its obligation. I worry Hegseth will likely be accepted by the Committee. Republican Senator Ernst suggested final evening she would help the candidate. I used to be upset in her approval. She is a former navy particular person. Hegseth has constantly suggested girls shouldn’t have “combating” positions within the navy. The Senator capitulated to Trump.
Hegseth had no simple process. He’s nonetheless a charmer and TV kind announcer. However, he has had a messy life and assuredly averted responses to his sexual abuse historical past, alcohol ingesting, monetary mismanagement and lack of expertise for the Protection Secretary place.
I discovered amusing that probably the most individuals he has ever been liable for/managed previously was 100. The navy alone is 3.4 million.
I got here away from watching him with the next conclusions: He’s a easy talker, has been redeemed by his Savior (He threw God into the combo a number of occasions), does 5 units of 47 pushups a day, and the Republicans on the Senate Committee proudly coated his shameful ass.
Two outstanding individuals have entered the limelight the place Trump is worried. Speaker Johnson and Michelle Obama.
Trump is pissed the American flag can be flown at half mast on Inauguration Day. It’s being flown in honor of Carter who not too long ago died. A greater man than Trump will ever be.
Trump doesn’t care in regards to the Carter respect merchandise. His concern is that it’s going to take away from consideration to his inauguration. He has been complaining.
Speaker Johnson introduced yesterday that for someday, Inauguration Day, the flag will return to its regular place.
Disgrace on you Speaker Johnson! You and Trump mixed are inadequate to make one Carter.
Michelle Obama is doing her factor. What she believes is appropriate from her perspective. Good for her!
Regardless of what’s being mentioned re her absence, she didn’t attend Carter’s wake as a result of she didn’t want to sit subsequent to Trump. It’s now introduced she is not going to attend Trump’s inauguration nor entertain Donald and Melania within the White Home previous to transition as has been the customized. Michelle’s perspective is effectively taken: Screw you Donald for all of the unhealthy/evil/unfaithful stuff you mentioned about my husband!
The job market continued to surge in December. 2 hundred fifty six thousand new jobs. Solely 155,000 have been anticipated.
The projection for this yr below Trump is that inflation will proceed or barely go up. Groceries and gasoline costs will stay the identical.
I don’t agree. What occurs will rely upon what Trump does. If he is ready to do lots of the issues promised, our financial system will likely be in poor form. Even earlier than yr’s finish.
An fascinating Residents’ Voice this morning. Involved Key West tree reducing. Twenty seven bushes are being minimize on the 900 block of Caroline. A request is into consideration to chop 211 bushes at Searstown. Who authorizes these mass undertakings? Timber present shade. Particularly on Caroline. Lower energy utilization/air con payments. Why 211 bushes at Searstown? I didn’t even know there have been that many. Somebody inform me why these bushes in each locations are being minimize.
I shut with my private commentary that Democrats will return to energy. Two causes concerned.
The primary is that Democrats can have seen the error of their methods and corrected them.
Secondly, Trump will screw up sufficiently to trigger many who voted for him to return to voting for the Democratic Occasion.
Get pleasure from your day!
