Ron,

    When it comes to Lauren Boebert making Colorado a laughingstock, that ship has f-ing sailed.  🙄

    I'm still wondering how the lady ever got elected to Congress.

    There are rumors that Boebert was working as an escort in Garfield County, (i.e., Aspen) where she met Ted Cruz and some other Koch-affiliated heavy Republican rollers.

    Perhaps, some day, we'll get the true story.

Peggy Noonan in her column in the last weekend edition of the Wall Street Journal wrote that some female members of Congress now dress like whores. This description was obviously aimed on Lauren Boebert and a few other GOP members of the House of Representatives.

She was a high school dropout. No big surprise,

But got her GED before being elected to Congress.

It had to come to this. It was inevitable.

 

Heidi Stevens: In attempt to shield kids from sexual content, Florida school district bans dictionaries. Do better, grown-ups

https://nordot.app/1118273226940596289?c=592622757532812385

“A school district in Florida has made the bold and bewildering decision to ban dictionaries (dictionaries!) from its libraries on the grounds that allowing children to read them violates a law aimed at protecting children from sexual content.”

 

“The American Heritage Children's Dictionary, Webster's Dictionary for Students and Merriam-Webster's Elementary Dictionary are among more than 2,800 books that have been pulled from Escambia County school libraries and placed into storage,” Judd Legum reports in Popular Information. “Along with dictionaries, the books removed from Escambia County school libraries as a result of this process include eight different encyclopedias, two thesauruses and five editions of The Guinness Book of World Records.”

 

Escambria County is along the Gulf Coast, may 50 miles southeast of Mobile, AL.

 

Those poor children.

Saudi Arabia Voices 'Great Concern' Over Yemen Air Strikes: Foreign Ministry | Barron's (barrons.com)

I find this amusing, seeing as Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen back to the Stone Age since 2015...

I had the same reaction, Matt.

I think the Saudi Royals are worried about incurring the wrath of Muslims who are angry about Gaza.

If I understand it correctly, the Houthis in Yemen have, essentially, declared a jihad on Red Sea cargo ships, in response to the bombing of Gaza.

Ron,

     Remember last summer's Texas heat wave, when you wanted to escape to the Colorado Rockies?

     The forecast in Denver this weekend is for wind chill temps of -20 to -30 F.  I'd rather be in the Yucatan.

     Meanwhile, here's more damning circumstantial evidence that Trump is a Kremlin asset.

How a collection of raw Russian intelligence disappeared under Trump

A binder containing highly classified information related to Russian election interference went missing at the end of Donald Trump’s presidency, raising alarms among intelligence officials that some of the most closely guarded national security secrets from the US and its allies could be exposed, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

Its disappearance, which has not been previously reported, was so concerning that intelligence officials briefed Senate Intelligence Committee leaders last year about the missing materials and the government’s efforts to retrieve them, the sources said.

In the two-plus years since Trump left office, the missing intelligence does not appear to have been found.

Good article, W.!  Of course the question comes up :

1)How can a President remove critical intelligence files? Aren't there backups on everything?

2. ) How can our NSS, which is feared throughout the world not even be aware such files are missing.?

3) In an unrelated matter. How can a President abort an ongoing investigation and turn over most of 91 counts against himself when he reaches office? A potential conviction in court should not be able to be overturned with a vote.That's what separation of powers is all about! There's a lot of BS that's needs to be straightened out when this is all over!

Regarding Putin, I've now heard Trump told an EU official in 2020 at the Davos Economic Conference not to expect the U.S. to defend European NATO members from attack, and said that the U.S. will get out of NATO. He could have gotten this by edict from Putin in Helsinki. This is the end all, (keep it simple stupid.) Trump can appear to have his own agenda opposing Putin in smaller matters but when push comes to shove. And say, Putin invaded  the Baltics, Trump would use his Presidency and his MAGA following to oppose any U.S. intervention. 

To be clear, I'm not at all sure if after this embarrassment at getting bogged down in a 2 year war with Ukraine that Putin is ambitious as he once might have been and is more content to just hold on to his present territory seized in Ukraine and declare that victory, and use it to attain re election,  and continue his funding  and support proxy wars in the Middle East and other possible regions. Which of course, in fairness, we've  done  as well.

Still there should be no doubt, if there was one simple easy command for Putin to direct Trump, promising no intervention in Europe, would be it.
