When Trump describes something as "unbelievable"... it usually is.

A couple of days ago, Time Magazine did an interview with Donald Trump. Later, they did some fact checking...it was needed. To me, he comes across as a stereotypical NYC mobster. A contemporary of John Gotti...but without the charisma.

Fact-Checking What Donald Trump Said in His Latest Interview With TIME
U.S. President Donald Trump sat for an exclusive interview ahead of the midterm elections. Here’s a check of the claims he made.

At this moment, Trump is addressing the United Nations (you can tell by the green marble background). MS NOW is carrying it, but CNN is not. I don't know if he is boringly terrible or terribly boring...it appears he is reading words written by somebody else.

Keith Olbermann's first love may be sports, but nearly 30 years of covering news and politics should give him some insight. In this case, he's absolutely correct. www.youtube.com/post/UgkxPqn...

The great thing about the World Cup was you could pick a country to root for, even if Team USA is eliminated. College football is different. There are games, where you wish BOTH teams could lose. FSU @ Alabama is on in about an hour. To quote Mercutio; "A plague o' both your houses!"

I watched "2001-A Space Odyssey" last night on TCM...half way through, I thought that this was a cautionary tale about AI. Tell me if you think I'm wrong.

Glad I was able to catch the final episode of @alexwittreports.bsky.social today. MSNBC/MS NOW has had a talented, consistent anchor for 27 years. It's amazing the events she has reported on, and how professional she was in her reporting.

With the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks coming up, I remember the mood of the country afterwards. Naturally, sadness, but with a cry for revenge against those responsible. Which is why I worry about Iranian retaliation for US bombing of schools. People are people, are they not?

Watched @tedlassobelieve.bsky.social season 4/episode 4 last night. The great thing about this series is that it makes you think, as well as laugh. The smart writing makes you feel as though you're in on the joke...and there are a lot of jokes.

Took a quick, but necessary, half hour nap this afternoon. I woke up with a strange thought: If there was a time traveler from the future, how would we know? You know, like a historian from 2056, who wanted to visit MAGA America. I assume he would keep a low profile.

Today is primary day, and I hate mail in ballots for a different reason than Trump does. I live in Florida, where it rains a lot in summer. The rain can sometimes seep into my mailbox and soak the letters, pre-sealing my mail-in ballot. So, it's off to my local precinct to vote.

I'm a fan of the departed show "Castle". Episode 12 of season 3 (2011) involved a wealthy guy, in trouble with the SEC, who faked his own death. A confederate snuck a dummy onto a plane, and took the bad guy off, before it exploded over the ocean. They used a catering truck to make the transfer.

I've seen the "conventional wisdom" evolve, if not be overturned. It was said America would never support a candidate who was black, divorced, a b-list celebrity or a convicted felon. It appears you can add "foreign sounding name" to that list. Good! We seem to be evolving.

Dr. Anthony Fauci is taking the 5th Amendment, in response to questions from Florida Senator Rick Scott. Scott oversaw what was, at the time, the largest Medicare fraud in history. His company had to pay $1.7 billion, and he himself pled the 5th amendment 75 times. Comical farce on The Hill.

I don't usually post about soccer/football, since there are plenty of people here who can do a better job. I stayed up really late last night, to watch Orlando City defeat San Jose 4-0. The newly acquired Antoine Griezmann scored a goal, and I think he'll make a positive difference.

I have RH negative blood. This is found in only 15% of the world's population, according to You Tube videos. They also say I am statistically likely to be Basque (no), Irish (yes) or a blend of Neanderthal and extra terrestrial. That last one will take more You Tube research...

I tuned in MS NOW in anticipation of seeing Stephanie Ruhle. Instead, I see what looks like an old guy arguing with the staff of his assisted living facility. The same show is on CNN. The sad thing is, it will likely be newsworthy...and I hate that!

People have not been overly kind to the "is he or isn't he?" senior Senator from Kentucky...I like to think of it as practice, or a warm up, for when "you know who" shuffles off this mortal coil.

It occurs to me, Trump doesn't really give a shit about the World Cup or the USA's participation in it. He just isn't a fan. He probably believes his mobster move, to get the FIFA mobsters to rescind the Balogun suspension, will increase his popularity. What a clueless twit!

Is there a trend in menswear I'm missing? In the past week, I've seen videos of men wearing jeans with the cuffs turned up. My mom used to do that when I was a kid. There was a reporter in Boston, talking about the World Cup, and Steven Spielberg, talking about his latest movie.

I spent the better part of my afternoon, cleaning up my chat stuff, going back to late 2023! Nearly all are deleted accounts, so I can't respond to "hello, how's it going or have you heard about the Illuminati?" May I suggest, when an account is deleted, the chats are deleted as well?

Last night, I'm watching Chris Hayes on M SNOW, and he mentioned one of the overlooked beauties of the World Cup. It draws you in, even if you previously had no interest in the national teams. Later, I found myself glued to Iran and New Zealand! (a 2-2 draw).

So, I'm in Ivanhoe Park Lager House, on the trail, in Orlando, to watch the World Cup (USA beats Paraguay 4-1) I see someone who looks very familiar. It's Alex Vindman, who is running for the Senate from Florida. He is watching the match, with no obvious entourage. We speak, and I promise my vote.

It's just after 11am, and I am watching the slow death of main stream media in real time. As a Congressional "shadow" hearing is happening in Palm Beach regarding the Epstein crimes, coverage is being ignored by traditional media, like CNN and MS NOW.

Sometimes you do things because your friends want you to. Going to see "The Devil Wears Prada 2" is one of those things. However, this one snuck up on me, because I really enjoyed it much more than I thought I would!

Is it time for the US to "get with the program"? Why can't we move from yards to meters, miles to kilometers or fahrenheit to celsius? The only time we are in step with the majority of the world is in food labels. We already think of fats and carbs in grams.

Trump confuses Iran and Ukraine, so he's probably confusing the terms "86" and "deep six". His reference to "mobster talk" makes sense, as "deep six" goes back to organized crime of the 1920's. Moe Green can 86 Fredo from the casino, but only Michael can deep 6 him.

So I hear James Comey has been indicted for threating Trump. Why? Because, nearly a year ago, he posted a picture of seashells spelling out "86-47". A Grand Jury in North Carolina apparently considered that a death threat. Two questions; why, and why North Carolina?
