    I guess it was a stretch to consider it possible.

        We dont need to fix the deficit, just kick the can down the road once again.

            And now that autopen may be invalid? There's talk about Biden's pardons not standing up and could result in allegations concerning some folks.
            Didn't think it was high on the President's list of priorities, what with all the rest of the problems. But when opportunity knocks...

                  President Trump recently ordered the previously classified JFK files to be released. "To be unredacted" was part of that.
                  Is that really what's happening? Apparently not, according to some sources.
                  I have not read these documents myself, but a large percentage seems to be information that was already released back in 2017. As for new information it may be too soon to tell what is being disclosed.
                  There are folks looking at it and asking questions. Like Piers Morgan, with a panel including ex-CIA officials.


                  Or this one from Newsmax, which personally reminds of that movie "Newsroom" (?) the scene "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it!".
                  I realize that it's a source repeatedly disparaged by our favorite contrarian, who is currently under the hammer (I hope not permanently ~ I miss the comedy) but I found the opinion expressed worth consideration once you get past the blatant narcissism.


                  What I have not seen are answers to basic anomalies put forth by the Warren Commision.
                  There were evidence photos of Oswald's "sniper nest" that clearly showed four bullet casings on the floor. Yet it was said He only fired three times.
                  There were other bullet strikes noted by witnesses on the limousine itself, a section of the concrete curb showed a strike and was subsequently removed. Another bullet was allegedly retrieved from the lawn.
                  Witnesses whose testimony was disallowed included railroad workers positioned on the triple overpass looking down at the approaching President. Many of them claimed there were gunshots from their left and smoke rising from the "grassy knoll".
                  All of this is searchable through old news articles. The only way, since all of those witnesses are no longer with us. I was only five years old at the time and didn't know squat about politics but realized the commotion.

                  Even today 61+ years later, I still see the commotion but fail to understand the politics. I've heard the words "National Security" in connection with the JFK assassination as an excuse to hide the truth.
                  As if "National Security" is synonymous with "Hiding our dirty little secrets away from the people paying our salary".

                  I don't know the truth behind the JFK assassination. I don't expect to see it during my lifetime. (maybe after)

                    I'll never forget that afternoon, it was surreal.

                    I went to a neighbors house after school that day, they were watching TV and most in the room were crying.

                    I was 6 years and had no idea what was going on, I had just walked into a room full of upset people.

                    I asked what happened, and they said John F Kennedy was killed.

                    I said, who's that ?

                    I had no idea.

                      What's up in Yemen?
                      Has Trump declared war against the Houthis? Or, have Houthis declared war on the USA?


                      I find it rather incongruous that while President Trump struggles to mediate peace, He's not afraid to protect national interest and respond to attacks in kind.
                      Ever look at the back of a quarter? An eagle holding an olive branch in one claw, and arrows in the other.

                        More about Yemen. We've seen the Houthis targeting Red Sea shipping lanes for months, and firing missiles into Israel. It wasn't until after they fired on the US Carrier "Harry S. Truman" that Trump authorized retaliation.


                        You don't poke a sleeping bear and then cry victim when it wakes up. What happened in Isreal that Oct 7th was not a poke; it was kicking a sleeping bear in the balls.
                        And then doubling down against the US?
                        This is Yemen, not the Independent Duchy of Grand Fenwick.

                          Another one of those too good to pass up.
                          Apparently, Tim Walz did an interview on a Gavin Newsom podcast. I can't seem to find the source video of that, but others are out there.
                          What I've seen is a marshmallow of a man claiming that he could "kick the a$$" of Trump supporters.
                          Guess who took him up on that? Glenn Thomas Jacobs ~ The big red machine. Seven foot tall and 300 pounds, known as "Kane" to his fans, a WWE Hall of Fame recipient and 2 term Mayor in Tennessee.


                          And an opinion piece with a bit more context.


                          I would pay to see that match between Kane and Walz. I would travel anywhere in the country or beyond to actually witness it.

                            I found this to be an interesting twist...
                            Made me laugh until I cringed.
