I keep reading that there have been no public executions in the United States for decades. Not true.

I wondered why I was seeing an article on that last night. Growing up in Wisconsin, we definitely learned about that in school.

This is cool. The guy has to back up on the trail until he can get off to the side to let them pass. They know he's there; especially the one in back.

It's been pretty obvious to those paying attention. The question I keep seeing on social media is this: if Trump were a Russian asset, what he be doing differently.

A new statue titled “The Orange Plague”, also known as “King of Injustice”, by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, where it will remain through 8 October. Remember to stop by for a selfie if you have a chance. 😏📸
This sculpture is a satirical piece titled "[The Orange Plague] created by Danish artist Jens Galschiøt.

The Imagery: The 2.6-meter-tall, gold-plated bronze sculpture depicts a naked, oversized Donald Trump riding on the back of a smaller man. He is holding a golf club in one hand and a pair of scales in the other. 

The Meaning: According to Galschiøt, the piece is a satirical commentary on modern political power, climate policy, and the subversion of the rules-based international order. 

Recent Exhibition: In October 2026, the statue drew global headlines when it went on public display inside the European Parliament building in Strasbourg, France, organized by Danish MEP Per Clausen.

He's getting so much money from petroleum interests that he feels that he can't afford to kill the golden goose. It's all about what's best for him personally.
