Even China might be getting in target practice. Who knew balloons would be such a threat? A Virginia contractor (and son) offer to help out, as they're itching to use their 60,000 foot ladder. Conservatives again had to contend with Black people at their football games. Donald Trump and Henry Winkler played Siskel and Ebert for the halftime show. Jesus would never “get” an anti-choice, anti-LGBTQ version of Jesus. Trump and Ron DeSantis declared war on Black and LGBTQ people and each other. Ron and Donald can dish it out, but sure can’t take it. “Respectable” free speech op-ed writers can’t even both-sides right. There's a new George Santos in Congress, although she could be lying about not being the old George Santos. When President Joe Biden called out Republicans on Social Security and Medicare, it not only killed Republican efforts to cut social insurance, but it also took out the Democratic efforts as well. The rupturing Republicans can’t seem to catch a break. Their investigations are falling flat mostly because they had not planned on anyone fighting back. Right-wing fraud peddlers in Cleveland released tens of thousands of robocalls to suppress the Black vote, and bragged to each other about it in emails, earning them… probation and community service… Oh, and the largest Federal Communications Commission robocall fine in the agency’s history! 5.1 million… No, $2500. Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s lawyers are pleading executive privilege for anyone who ever heard Trump during his administration. Joe Biden plans to transform the US economy from the middle out — with hydrogen. And, not the regular kind, but with green hydrogen! Restaurants, schools, hospitals, etc., etc. are having a harder time getting people to work for them out of the love of their craft (instead of money). Russians are looking at Moldova like they looked at Ukraine. And Moldova doesn’t like that one bit.
