I'm starting to worry that Trump is going to get really jealous really soon. Not tariff jealous, but angry, blistering, dangerous jealous - of Mark Carney. (Currently the true leader of the free world, and a poised, intelligent gentleman.) I mean, roll in the tanks and start dropping bombs, jealous.

My god. We're almost there. I used to joke "What's next? He'll put lead back into paint? Allow smoking in hospitals again?" Well by golly we're almost there. He wants to go back to steam powered aircraft catapalts.

Trump sent up a decoy plane because it might have been destroyed. This should be a much bigger story. There were people on that decoy. We're getting great jokes out of the catering truck, but the fact remains: He sent a plane full of his fellow Americans into the sky to die. Let's talk about that.

Update on today's gas leak: it was actually a spill. A worker was filling a lawnmower, and they spilled a whole can of gas right next to the air-conditioning fan that cools our room. Fumes were sucked up and blown directly in. I hate mowers at the best of times. But this? F**k you, lawnmower man.

"Go home. The 11am show is cancelled." "Because of the rain?" "No. Because of a gas leak in the building. Your dressing room is full of fumes, and your costumes stink of gas." Well okay then ...

Will British Columbia charge the US for smoke from Spokane? Asking for a province.

Now, thunder storms and a tornado warning. The gods are not smiling upon my little puppet show this summer. The gods and I will have words.

Here's a new theory. Mitch McConnell is the test for what they're planning for Trump. A brain dead vegetable who's kept out of sight. Alive? Dead? We don't know. Trump's death will happen the same way. We won't know. They're trying that now with Mitch, and it's working. Dude still has his job.

Trump holds Canada responsible for smoke from wild fires. Dude, our country is on fire! Why aren't you helping?!?! Asshole.

The 11am performance of my outdoor puppet show was cancelled this morning due to air quality. Dangerous levels of smoke in the air. Okay. Now this shit is getting real.

"America is the hottest country anywhere in the world." Yeah. That's why everyone is afraid to go outside. I wonder if he's going to stop saying that now.

When Trump and Iran issue "conflicting statements" it's a sad state of world affairs that one should believe one, but not the other. And in this case, I believe the Iranians.

Still thinking about it. Steven Spielberg's DISCLOSURE DAY is a tangled-up mystery box of a movie. Not sure what to make of it yet. There's one sequence that hit me right between the heart and the memories, and for that I know I'll go back. In the meantime, I have John Williams' score on repeat ...

I think they're baiting him now, to record him for history. A reporter will ask a question and then just let the cameras roll as he spouts off: "What a stupid question!" "What a terrible reporter!" "Fake news fake news!" All on tape. Forever. I think they're actually planning it now, and smiling.

Pete Hegseth pulling a quote from a movie when he thinks he's quoting the Bible might be THE most American thing I have ever heard of.

I think I saw this coming. Trump distracts from Epstein by starting a war, then distracts from the war by putting Epstein in the news all over again. 'Round and 'round this will go.

Honestly. Please. There's a new John Williams score coming out this summer, for a new Steven Spielberg movie. Can't we please just make it that far at least, before the world ends?

Has he said anything at all -- even a stupid thing -- about Artemis II? Or is he all wrapped up in his shiny hobby war, and expects us to be, too?

He's handling this war the same way he did Covid: "We have it totally under control" - he obviously doesn't. "It will end very soon, you'll see" - when obviously it will not. This will spread just like Covid did, and it will last for years. With him in charge.
