Trump Betrays the Ukraine

It looks as though today's high is not going to make it out of the 60s (F).  Right now we have sunshine, but later this morning the clouds are going to come rolling in.  They'll be bringing more rain into the picture.  We don't really need it.  Unfortunately, there's not too much you can do to stop the rain.  Tomorrow there will be more rain as temps rise a bit, but then they'll drop and stabilize with daily highs in the mid 60s (F).  

While some of the leaves on my trees have started to change color, most have not. 

Yesterday was pretty much a meh day.  Some laundry was done, as well as a decent cleaning of my kitchen.  Mostly the meh was caused by my waiting to go pick up my wheat berries; I had no idea how this was going to work.  The drop-off point was at Vibrant Church, though over and over again we were reminded that there was no affiliation with Azure.  From where the drop-off point was located, I'd say this was very true.  

There were around 30 people already waiting when I arrived.  A large, white tractor trailer with the back doors was at the center of the crowd and at the designated time the driver began the unloading process.  He would set packages at the back and four people would pick them up, look at the label, and then call out names.  A lot of packages came off of that truck, whole sacks of potatoes, and onions; cases of organic beverages, and tomato sauce; a six foot tall pallet with nothing but sacks of grains.  It was kind of amazing.  My wheat was on the pallet, of course, and for those interested, I paid $25 for 25 pounds.  That's a deal.

So, Trump betrayed the Ukraine by nearly shutting down Starshield to please his blow bro Vlad.  The world is royally pissed!  For years people have claimed that Orange was a Russian asset, now there is little doubt in anyone's mind.  Naturally, he's blaming Elonia, who in return is blaming the Department of Defense.  They're both to blame.  They both totally underestimated the global reaction, but then you to realize than neither Orangie or Elonia are the brightest colors in the box; they live in a deluded world filled with assumptions.  Why was this down now?  I suspect the midterms have a lot to do with the decision.  If things go as badly as some are predicting, the new Congress and Senate will hobble the Orange Anus.  There's also a good possibility Elonia may lose some of his government contracts.  And Vlad?  He will lose his war with Ukraine.

Early and mail-in voting has begun for the midterms.  While one group is touting certain results, I'm looking at things from a different angle.  To me, it seems as though there's a certain group of voters who have decided to sit this one out.  Bob is right, victory will only be certain if you Cast A Damn Vote!

All Republicans are like Guilfoyle

So, here we are on Wednesday, the middle of the week.  Our weather is supposed to be hot and sticky with the possibility of sporadic thunderstorms throughout the day.  Let's just hope they don't spawn on or near my house; rain we've had enough of.  The storms will bring a drop in temps, so tomorrow's high will be in the mid 60s (F), but then we're heading back up into the low 70s (F) for a couple of days.  October temps have been rather moderate, but then Pennsylvania is considered a moderate weather state.

Yesterday I was busy enough to keep from taking any naps.  I got a decent leg workout in so my gams are having a bit of a stiffy problem this morning.  This is not a bad thing.  The idiom "no pain, no gain," is true.  Mild muscle pain from a decent little workout will always pass.  Knowing what you're doing helps, as does not overworking specific muscle groups.  

This afternoon the 25 pounds of wheat berries I ordered from Azure arrives.  Their shipping process is different.  Instead of your order being sent directly to you, it, along with a number of other orders, is sent to a drop off location.  On a specific day and time, you go to that location and pick up your order as it is unloaded from a truck.  I'll have to see how well this works.  Cost wise, I like it since my shipping costs were $1.71.

Andy my yellows are blooming!

And Kimmie Guilfoyle resigned from her ambassadorship to Greece because...  well, she's a grifter just like everyone else who's been even mildly  associated with the Orange Anus.  Kimmie likes to spend other people's money.  Kimmie also believes others should cover her debts because she's a VIP.  The only reason Kimmie got that gig was because Donnie Jr. went looking for another slag, and Kimmie knows where the bodies are buried.  Don't feel too bad for Kimmie, she may be out of a job, but she still knows so many secrets.  I'm betting Kimmie's going to get the Noem treatment and moves into a newly created job that guarantees her the same paycheck.  Hell, Orangie may even give her a raise.  He doesn't care how he spends your tax dollars.

For those into numbers, inflation came in "hot" this morning, rising to 3.7%.  Many think that Republicans are simply incompetent when it comes to the economy.  That's wrong.  They simply don't care about the middle classes.  They never have, and never will.  They do not care how difficult life is for a majority of Americans, in spite of what they might say.  Unless it effects them personally, they don't really give a shit.  They're all a bit like Kimmie, wanting you to foot their bills.
