Nice comment about parents. And how about when you drive your car? Are you like me that you spend all of your time avoiding others? Especially on the freeway? It's called being cautious and therefore not getting into trouble.
My foot isn’t the lead object it used to be but only because defensive driving is all consuming these days when a good driver is a rarity. Of course I spend all my time avoiding others. I am an only child, hence a subject expert. Lockdown? What lockdown? My life changed not one whit.
My next door neighbor back in Illinois who was a chemist for a major pharma company was a big pothead along with his wife. They would go on vacation to Mexico, Italy & Hawaii and the first thing he would do was look for marijuana. I told him he should take a trip to the Middle East like Dubai as it’s a modern city in the desert & see the Burj Khalifa. He moved in 2019 and after 33 years of home ownership, this being his 3rd home, he walked away with $1500 profit. He asked how we paid our home off early & I told home we did stupid things like pay every month & add a little extra to the principal, then pay off the balance once it was low enough.

I've read that you can get caned in Singapore for dropping chewing gum on a public sidewalk! You have to kind of like it! Play stupid games, win stupid prizes! 🤣
We visited Singapore long ago for a few days; wonderful city/state but we were hosted there by a successful businessman. And, yes, NO gum. It was clean as a whistle as they say. People had jobs where they kept an entire block or blocks clean; that is sweeping all day long- no debris. And the hotel we stayed at? People who maintained the gardens all day long; amazing. Frankly, we had a great visit.
I was there several times. The locals told be you could drop your wallet on aster corner and come back in an hour and it would still be there. Yeah and no gum.
I’ve never been anywhere but Cabo and even there us dirty Americanos had to take a bleach foot bath at the airport. I’ve been to Reynosa and Matamoros sooo… 0/10 would not recommend & that was 40 years ago. I lived to tell so there’s that at least.
I don't remember the name of the criminal. He was caned in Singapore, the Clinton administration negotiated his release and about a month later it was reported he'd been arrested for assaulting his father.
Michael Fay. I can't find reports on his arrest now. I remember the incident because we discussed it in a class I attended for municipal judges. It was a rebuttal session on the increased use of probation and the subsequent increase in recidivism in 1999 or 2000.
I think that Griner’s release had more to do with being a POC than anything else. The Pedo Joe crew knew that they were losing a lot of the black vote but not the alphabet vote.
" Stupid is as stupid does " ; I've been hearing this ever since I can remember. Actions have consequences, think before doing . Our forebears may not have all been geniuses but the they did learn and teach .
Right?! I mean seriously - that is just beyond dumb.
But I am with the woman who wants to know why the Biden administration did not make any effort to get him released. It is puzzling to say the least, and smacks of being deliberate. Can’t help but wonder Why?
Some years ago Singapore, a very conservatively run min-country, hanged some Australian drug smugglers. Evidently that works very well, although the drug smugglers may disagree on personal grounds.
That is EXACTLY WHAT I said to my hubby!!!! Leftist Americans are SO ARROGANT they think they can do whatever they want. And how much you want to bet $1M that this family was a bunch of LEFTISTS before Trump got him out????
Wasn't there an American guy who was hanged somewhere in SE Asia over a pot possession or pot-dealing charge? Or maybe it was hashish. I vaguely remember a movie about that, and it was based on an actual incident.
IDK. Looking at her in photo and video, I have to say that she IS absolutely from some native tribe, be it US or Canada. Lizzy Warren? Ridiculous! Buffy?? Absolutely IS.
But WHY did the CBC start investigating this in 2023????
Well so did Rachel Dolezal who basically used tanning supplies to help. I think you got the impression she was adopted because she tried to sue her family for actually busting her Indigenous con.
That bit about how we'll have to boil our water if the EPA gets funding cuts illustrates one of my life's great frustrations: most of the people I work with (academia) and most of my family members have a childish, credulous trust that government is always and everywhere necessary, effective, and acting in the public interest. I don't know how to have an intelligent conversation with these true believers, so I don't even try. It would be like debating a flat-earther.
Them: The EPA is run and staffed by very smart and good hard-working people who understand The Science, and everything they decide to do is necessary, no matter what it costs. They should have final say over any environmental issue, and the greater the power of the EPA, the better, and shut up, you science-denier who wants the planet to burn!
Me: The EPA could be cut to 10% of its current bloated budget and workforce, because it wastes untold billions (of the taxes we all pay) every year paying useless people, and its regulatory overreach stifles economic productivity and tramples on property rights.
I really do not understand why so many intelligent and good-hearted people are incapable of skepticism or critical thinking. My only hope is that Trump's exposure of massive wasteful spending will make some of these people begin to question their blind faith in institutions.
Ask them if they’ve ever read our Constitution. It’s very purpose and every amendment and clause were designed to create checks on government power. Why? Because they knew, and all of history has taught, that governments, ALL governments everywhere, operating without the most explicit guardrails inevitably end up as authoritarian and tyrannical. It is in the very DNA of the beast.
Yep. Human nature. It is why communism will never work. Working folk see the grifter not lifting a finger, gets mad. Nothing gets done but misery all round.
It's going to be playing in my mind all day today!
This type of thing is really the best of "the human spirit"--there is this spark in all of us that no matter what, a good song like this can spur us to stand up and throw off whatever's dragging us down.
Reminds me of when Don posted this song a few months ago:
Me too, Gail... BUT- There are storm clouds on the horizon. The Dems are going to push him hard in court. I surmise that he is ready for that. In that he had all of his moves vetted before he acted; by his group of very good lawyers. Let's hope so; we don't want him stalled.
With all the random court cases the Dims are throwing out there, this will end up at the Supreme Court. I think Trump is still on 4D chess. This will force the issues of YES, the executive branch DOES actually control the execution of his branch, just like it would be for a company.
The S*** the Dims are spewing here makes absolutely no sense and are very weak arguments not including the one of Standing which is being ignored by almost all the Dim judges.
I read a legal blog, the TROs are 'easy' to get issued from kool-aid drinking dems donors (and recipients), but they only last 5-10 days. Then you have to prove a point, confirm standing, get legal rulings to support, offer PDJT47 a chance to respond - all with the threat of an Appeal making the judge looks STUPID and get the Higher Courts to crucify you threatening their 'soft power' 'to be reasonable' at risk. Risking a Jacksonian response from the Executive - 'judge, then enforce what you have ruled'......the Three Branches of the Government are EQUAL, regardless of Marbury ~1803 ruling - the Judiciary CANNOT do anything if the Executive & Congress are not willing to admit something is Actually over the line....
All of these National TROs are attempts to bait 47, and Roberts will crush these idiots if more of them do so - all of these are going to fail - BIG TIME......47 and his attorneys have already expected them and are ready to file arguments against - for the 2nd step is easily $50-100k of legal manpower involved.....and again judge on level 2 will not risk making stupid rulings that get rapidly overturned for swiss cheese phony legal reasoning.
Note to Don--I don't know how you consistently put out a 6-days-a-week newsletter that is consistently informative, entertaining, and hilarious. You are the master of the one-liner and your puns hit the mark 95% of the time. I started taking it for granted until a "Notes" linked to a former governor's Substack saying it was a "must read" and lol funny. I admire the governor so I took a look. It was a pale imitation of your Substack with a paragraph for each headline with a lame punchline at the end, rimshot after rimshot. And it's written by the guv and his "staff." You do it alone. You're a national treasure. Thank you!

"ITEM 5: Democrat Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury said, “I don't think there is anyone in America that wants to wake up tomorrow and find out that they have to boil their water because the EPA's workforce has been escorted out of the building."
EPA . . .FEMA . . . All government waste and abuse to citizens. It was the US-EPA that caused one of the worst chemical spills in this country.
I'll bet all the residents of East Palestine, OH won't mind seeing the US EPA get it's comeuppance. The EPA (with approval from the Governor in OH) authorized the burning of the chemicals in the wrecked rail cars that poisoned the air AFTER the leaking chemicals poisoned the soil and streams.
And, speaking of having to boil water, where was the EPA and FEMA in helping western North Carolinians? They are STILL boiling their water?
And those idiots *Don would ban me if I used what I want* DIDNT even clean that up. Said it was too dangerous after they released the flood of toxins into the rivers and caused the massive fish kills.
Their excuse it wasnt for EPA to pay for or fix? It was a subcontractor therefore not our problem.
Obama was in the Whitehouse when this disaster happened and just like the flagrant corruption and crazy-ass spending done in 'secret' for all these years, all the government dolts just stare off into space acting as if it is someone else's fault.
I don't think I'll explain why my feelings are so visceral about Mitt Romney. I do know that I would not trust myself to walk into the room with him and be able to resist the urge to slap him, which I think is probably an assault charge.

It's been much longer than that since I quit listening to them. Their soothing, cloying, insufferably benevolent voices gave me such nausea, I HAD to escape. Fortunately that part was easy -- just a turn of the dial.
Locally, NPR recently "rescued" and IMHO had ruined our formerly city supported classical music station that was over 100 years old. In their great wisdom, they have changed the playlist and I rarely ever listen to them. On the rare occasions I decide to give them another chance, they're always begging for more $$. In the past, I was proud and happy to donate to the old station, but I wouldn't give them another dime now.
on fundraising drives I would occaisionally call and ask the volunteer, I would like to give them $1000, but they'd have to forgo Federal subsidies.... never did give them anything...phone call was free back then...
As DOGE enters the realm of exposing the theft of trillions, CNN parrots the DNC line, "Slow down!" Americans are witnessing the exposure of a bank robbery that has been in progress for decades. The DNC is telling us to wait another 4 years before calling the cops. Okay. NO! *** Tucker Carlson has reported personally witnessing Zelensky and his buddies blowing millions of dollars each at luxury European resorts. Trump informed that dictator the flow of bucks is over. Zelensky is desperate to reverse that decision. So desperate that he is willing to sell his country's assets to the highest bidder. What a guy! *** Sotomayor isn't the first Karen to sit on SCOTUS. We will survive her tantrums. If we had a strong Chief Justice, we would be spared from reading her political screeds masquerading as legal opinions. *** Another joke writes itself. Insecure star of "Insecure" cancels show. Does it get any better? *** It does! Like any good Democrat, she demands payment for delivering nothing. *** The IRS firings can begin with the six thousand employees who owe $50 million in back taxes and the managers who have allowed them to remain employed.
Seems all of PDJTs department heads are good with chain saws and sledge hammers while still being in total control with interviewers asking gotchas. Filet and release works for me.
Kamala's career is over - she's no longer able to use her lips for anything but talking, and unfortunately for her, her lips are still connected to her (very small) brain.
But she sure has "ridden (very) high on the hog" on the taxpayers dime for decades, so I don't feel sorry for her at all. She has indulged in expensive purchases, homes, jewelry, trips.
But her gravy train has ended. For many ex-politicians, a university will snatch them up and give them a cushy landing place. But I suspect even our craven universities would find it hard to put on the payroll a person with such a reputation for stupidity.
Wait--I know one-- Harvard-- that hired Lori Lightfoot-- that stunningly excellent Chicago mayor.
Item 7
I’m glad for this school teacher who Trump got out of a Russian prison for what we would consider a minor drug charge.
But what is wrong with these people thinking they take drugs into another country and then wonder why they get tossed into jail?
Their country. Their rules. Know them and follow them.
I can’t imagine messing with the drug laws in foreign countries. I’m no fool, I saw Midnight Express so I know better.
An absolutely great reference to a very scary and mind-opening movie.
Prison...monastery...prison...monastery
Very memorable movie.
I’m STILL living my life like my parents are in charge and watching my every move. I hate trouble and work hard to not get into any lol.

In our area (Prescott, AZ) our sales tax revenues went UP during the pandemic. What does that say about lockdown? LOL

Remember the American kid from Dayton that got caned in Singapore for keying a car?
Made me grateful for Singapore
I've read that you can get caned in Singapore for dropping chewing gum on a public sidewalk! You have to kind of like it! Play stupid games, win stupid prizes! 🤣

He abused his father after he returned home. He didn't learn his lesson. He needs a good horse whipping.
Who abused his father?? How??
I don't remember the name of the criminal. He was caned in Singapore, the Clinton administration negotiated his release and about a month later it was reported he'd been arrested for assaulting his father.
Michael Fay. I can't find reports on his arrest now. I remember the incident because we discussed it in a class I attended for municipal judges. It was a rebuttal session on the increased use of probation and the subsequent increase in recidivism in 1999 or 2000.

And a lesbian! She checked multiple 'boxes'.
Or a tranny. Somethin' not right about that wo-man!
So HE is a lesbian?
Yep, and he is married to a woman. And that pretty much makes that a hetero relationship.
Tre-Bien!
Billy is 100% correct, here. This dope-smoking "teacher" is no hero.
The baritone voice sent me, not gonna lie. I will never forget that little episode.
Apparently he uses prescribed medical marijuana for severe pain. But he should have understood the rules before he went there.
" Stupid is as stupid does " ; I've been hearing this ever since I can remember. Actions have consequences, think before doing . Our forebears may not have all been geniuses but the they did learn and teach .
They at least had common sense and their 8th grade math book puts to shame any HS math book around, and a lot of college intro math classes.
I have one from the 1850s or so that was a Great-greats
Plus our forbears set good examples
That was my thought. Additionally what is school teacher doing with drugs anyway?
Right?! I mean seriously - that is just beyond dumb.
But I am with the woman who wants to know why the Biden administration did not make any effort to get him released. It is puzzling to say the least, and smacks of being deliberate. Can’t help but wonder Why?

Midnight Express might have been the movie.

But WHY did the CBC start investigating this in 2023????
Her dad's Italian her mom is English. She strongly resembles my one grandmother who was part Swiss. Swiss are either German, French or Italian.
I got the impression she had been adopted. Looks like an indigenous Mexican to me.
Well so did Rachel Dolezal who basically used tanning supplies to help. I think you got the impression she was adopted because she tried to sue her family for actually busting her Indigenous con.
Dolezal actually was selected as head of the local NAACP by the other parasites tj.
The Wah Knobbian Indian tribe.
That's what a good friend, a Miniconjou Sioux called them.
Massaliarssetts Tribe
It's not mysterious. Massachusetts is its tribal ground.

NO! *** Tucker Carlson has reported personally witnessing Zelensky and his buddies blowing millions of dollars each at luxury European resorts. Trump informed that dictator the flow of bucks is over. Zelensky is desperate to reverse that decision. So desperate that he is willing to sell his country's assets to the highest bidder. What a guy! *** Sotomayor isn't the first Karen to sit on SCOTUS. We will survive her tantrums. If we had a strong Chief Justice, we would be spared from reading her political screeds masquerading as legal opinions. *** Another joke writes itself. Insecure star of "Insecure" cancels show. Does it get any better? *** It does! Like any good Democrat, she demands payment for delivering nothing. *** The IRS firings can begin with the six thousand employees who owe $50 million in back taxes and the managers who have allowed them to remain employed.
ITEM 6. putting 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean. That means they finally determined that shit doesn't float.
Reminds me of the scene from Porky's.
Seems all of PDJTs department heads are good with chain saws and sledge hammers while still being in total control with interviewers asking gotchas. Filet and release works for me.
Trigger-and release-Catch and release is worth your time
Look ma, I'm juggling a chainsaw while swatting stupid questions like flies.
It almost makes me sick to choose Hilary knowing Kamala is still on the board.
Kamala's career is over - she's no longer able to use her lips for anything but talking, and unfortunately for her, her lips are still connected to her (very small) brain.
Yeah but re-purposed office desk furniture is a thing these days and her expertise could be valuable in spotting fakes.
Washed up prostitute's don't get much business especially when they are alcoholic.
Maybe she can move to one of Russia's naval port cities and offer her service to their sailors who probably can't afford a hooker.
Yikes--triple Ouch!
But she sure has "ridden (very) high on the hog" on the taxpayers dime for decades, so I don't feel sorry for her at all. She has indulged in expensive purchases, homes, jewelry, trips.
But her gravy train has ended. For many ex-politicians, a university will snatch them up and give them a cushy landing place. But I suspect even our craven universities would find it hard to put on the payroll a person with such a reputation for stupidity.
Wait--I know one-- Harvard-- that hired Lori Lightfoot-- that stunningly excellent Chicago mayor.
TPG for the pin !!
Cringing 🤢🤮 !
