I've been off social media for quite awhile; it's kind of a black hole IMO (especially Facebook). My wife had a knee replacement in January and I've been taking care of her. I'm on Blue Sky now due to a new effort by Heather Cox Richardson. Check it out at @hcrichardson.bsky.social‬.

Trump, once again, shows that he is all bullshit. While he claims that he is negotiating a peace deal with Iran, Israel acts on their own to attack Iran today, while completely ignoring whatever it was Trump was claiming he was doing.

The common drumbeat on Trump's tariffs is that most everything will be more expensive for consumers. More important is that American dominance in the global marketplace will be permanently lost to China. Gift article from The New York Times. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/o...

A Press Secretary who doesn’t know anything about anything except a handful of talking points, doesn’t prepare for briefings, whose reflex when she doesn’t know about a subject is always to attack the media outlet. At least Kayleigh did her homework, despite lying a lot.
