Now it costs a $1000 to produce a drone that can take out that $100 Million airplane or $6 Million Tank etc. Once we get those oft promised robot soldiers anyone with a few bucks can be a war lord.

Certainly that's the idea. But in WWII the US had the will to prevail and mobilized our economy to make it happen. We also did not have MTG or Trump to fuck up the program.

John, Young people such as yourself, still struggling to find a path and purpose in life, are in for a hard ride. The rest of us can just sit back and watch the tragicomedy unfold, mostly unaffected.

The economy is strong, inflation is way down, unemployment is low and wages are up. Add to that the Republicans in the house couldn't organize a three person marble game if two offered to play and brought the marbles and the election should be a Blue wave. Nothing is normal anymore.

The tri-braced canopy that started new parachute design?

Now there's a blast from the past. Fun to fly compared to everything else but the openings could be real doozies. -
Thus spoke Zarathustra.

You must have beat me by seconds. Nice.

That would make me happy, too! I just don't think Jordan has a snow balls chance in hell of becoming speaker when the Republicans have a perfectly serviceable white nationalist on offer.

Over enough to start calling him a loser, loser, loser. Are you angry with me? I just want to be happy and not cause any problems. Don't you want me to be happy?

Dr. Mary Trump, a trained psychologist, has just laid out the template for how to break Trump in her response to how Jordan, whom Trump endorsed, lost out to Scalise. "Make no mistake. There was one BIG loser today and it wasn’t Jim Jordan," she wrote. "It was Donald." "Donald today learned once again that his endorsement means nothing — or even better — spells doom for whoever accepts it," she continued. "His grip over the Republican Party is eroding faster than his net worth. Donald is a cheap conman still charging for his cheap product, but a lot of people aren’t buying it anymore. He’s a nothing. He’s a loser." This is the mantra that needs to be repeated over and over whenever and wherever the opportunity arises in the media. Loser, loser, loser Trump. It'll drive him to make mistakes.

More just enjoying the onery, methinks.

Today I received my seventh Covid shot, all Pfizer including two Bivalent doses. At the same time I received my Flu and Pneumonia jabs. Still, I have no tail or 5G in my ears and, most importantly, tonights Pinot tastes as good as ever.

Sound about right. And BJ Worth will do the negotiations.

Possibly. But it's definitely not too soon to learn Spanish.

Excellent, corporations to the rescue again.

A secure southern border simply means controlled entry. I am in favor of controlled entry and I also believe a wall is dumb. I also recognize that shooting them on arrival is only regionally popular in the US. So what do we do to keep Central Americans from flooding through Mexico? Impoverishing them through sanctions hasn't worked. Saying pretty please to Mexico to get them to control their southern border hasn't worked. I suppose we could build a big canal through the isthmus of Panama and stop them there, or something, but we'd just give it away so that wouldn't work. Short of establishing a large military presence and a huge humanitarian zone either along our southern border or Mexico's and being willing to inflict summary justice, what to do? Maybe giving a Trillion a year to Guatemala and Belize to flourish their economies in exchange for them accepting them all would work, but probably not. So, what to do?

The border crisis spans the globe, we're rather fortunate in comparison to many poorer nations.

No worries, Trump will bail him out. -
Back to the grown ups speaking, from Letita after Trump stopped crying and went home after rabble rousing monday and tuesday outside the courtroom: “And lastly, I will not be bullied,” James continued. “Mr. Trump is no longer here. The Donald Trump show is over. This was nothing more than a political stunt.”

No figuring required when the topic is guns. Let's just all be glad that the regulations prohibiting the open carry of swimming pools in the vicinity of schools has prevented mass drownings of school kids in their classrooms.

Six ways renewables increase your electricity bill

It’s a very pretty graph. What exactly do you want? -
In even more odious news from our Republican Congress, the President Pro Tempore, interim Speaker Patrick McHenry evicted Nancy Pelosi from a small extra office space effective immediately. And, yes, he did it while she was away bringing the body of her friend Dianne Feinstein home to California. Such a lovely lot of caring Americans they are.

The courts need to gag him and at least restrain him at home. His supporters will cork but the sooner we fight them the better. He's not just bloviating, he's trying to build a bigger and more violent army than he had on January 6.

Spare time? Not really. I'm in the middle of sneaking twelve cases of wine through customs and, from what I'm told, I also have two businesses to run.

He's coming unglued and not being called out. He's a broken record playing the same tired song. Letting him use the courthouse to threaten and demean the very prosecutors and judge inside is beyond the pale. Someone needs to do the bold thing and shut his mouth.
