The debt ceiling deal is
taking flak from both Progressives and the Freedom Caucus threatening to
torpedo the bill in Committee and McCarthy’s Speakership (once again on the
debt ceiling we are at the fiscal cliff looking to fall off because of
Presidential MIA and Congressional delay in facing the issue—constituents
should send fiddles and togas to Congress as like Rome we face crashing and
burning. Elisabeth Holmes once the exalted first female self-made billionaire on
her fraud has entered prison to start her 11 year sentence—she is lucky she
will not have more time but her two innocent kids will suffer big time with
their mother in prison. The Reds are moving to hold Christopher Wray in contempt
of Congress for the FBI refusing to release the FD-1023 document that
supposedly details a bribery scheme between Joe Biden and a foreign national
(unfortunately as the contempt citations against AG Holder showed the DOJ will
not take any action but the issue should be tidal of demands by voter to have
the document released which if not will sink his reelection and if released and
it contains even remotely what is alleged will sink it before it starts).
Marines have to qualify each year on the shooting range but evidently not in
hand to hand combat as 3 Marines were brutally punch and kicked by a mob of
teens after one of them asked them to stop shooting fireworks on the beach near
the San Clemente pier. Bud Light’s sales
due to its ill-fated partnership with TG Dylan Mulvaney are dropping faster than
Biden’s popularity as the bleeding continues with sales down 29.5% for the week
ended May 20 compared to the same period in 2022. Target with its TG friendly clothing for kids
has experienced the dubious distinction of having a song urging its boycott “Boycott
Target” by Rapper Forgiato Blow hitting the charts at number I even as the
rapper is being shadow banned by pressure from Target over lost sales. AOC is
having a bad time first she was subject to angry criticism at her town hall
meeting with constituents having to resort to the Harris of laughing and showed
her thin skin to criticism of Musk and Twitter lashing out at a clearly
identified parody account that will make many people reading it laugh. Celtics
were out 3’d in spades and were destroyed on their home court by the Heat 103-84
to play the Nuggets in the finals.

Chengdu to Tiananmen Square. It struck me that fear had been forgotten to such
