One of the best parts of yesterday was Axios floating Schmitt as a running mate for JD Vance. What stellar timing.

The Band of Brothers: Legacy documentary on HBO had a lot of interesting 25 years later actor commentary, and quite a bit of footage of Easy Company men I hadn't seen, including the first interview footage of Bull Randleman I think I've ever seen.

In marginally less apocalyptic news, Mom was scammed out of her cane in the park by a 22-month old boy who traded her a twig for it.

4/ To skirt campaign finance laws and conceal the source of the funds, Navatek’s CEO, Martin Kao, sends an initial $150K to the pro-Collins super PAC (1820 PAC) using a shell company. Reed knows Kao is behind the donation. “Very smart,” he says in an email viewed by ProPublica.
Emails Between Martin Kao and Scott Reed, Discussing Contributions to the Susan Collins Super PAC, 1820 PAC

“Hi Scott: Had a chance to discuss 1820 with my CFO and attorney last night. They are suggesting setting up a separate new LLC to make the donations. Name of new LLC: Society of Young Women Scientists and Engineers.

In my personal real estate investments, we often use LLCs that can be set up to "facilitate" transactions. They are super vague and very difficult to get any background info on. Totally legal and typically used in real estate transactions to conceal the identity of buyer/seller. Wanted to get your thoughts/concerns.”
— email from Martin Kao to Scott Reed, Nov. 22, 2019

“Very smart and glad your counsel understands. Thanks for doing this.”
— email from Scott Reed to Martin Kao, Nov. 22, 2019

“Great! We will proceed on getting this set up ASAP. Have a nice weekend.”

That hanger on the right with strings of origami swans was sent to the US by students in an Australian school (Brisbane, I think), and somehow ended up in a tree near the old NEX Citgo gas station on South Joyce.
