Trump's Corruption

Rain is on the way... again.  Today's high is supposed to be in the mid 70s (F), tomorrow's in the mid 505s (F).  That's a big temperature drop.  There will be a bounce back, but our highs will not be as high as were predicted last week.  I read that because of El Nino we might have a warmer and wetter winter, think Seattle weather, and that means less snow.  Less snow means less free cardio.  Drats.

Yesterday was sort of a meh day because I baked bread... the old fashioned way.  This meant I was dealing with "rise" periods during which I did absolutely nothing constructive.  I used my own recipe and learned a thing or two.  The big thing was that my bread pans are too large, 5 x 9, meaning my loaves will go wide before they go high.  Anyway, this is what the loaves looked like when I took them out of the pan.  Believe me when I tell you that freshly ground wheat make the bread tasty, tasty, tasty!

The public execution is off.  The administration actually thought this would be a ratings bonanza and give Orangie a boost in the ratings.  There is no fixing stupid.

And Orangie's super pissed that Ukraine has once again begun targeting Russian refineries and fuel depots.  And I think a 5th data center was blown up yesterday.  He has no idea how much his genuflecting to his Russian god is pissing off Americans, but then, you know what they say about stupid.

You know it's bad when Fox Entertainment puts out a graphic showing what pisses most of Americans off in regard to this administration.  I would have thought that it would be inflation and the high cost of gas. But no, I'm wrong.  It's corruption.  It's in plain sight.  Orangie and his crew don't even pretend to have low flying ethics.

This administration is so bad, 88% of Americans see this as a serious problem.  And the 12% who don't find this concerning?  They're totally bereft of ethics and values.  They're the ones who's daily prayer is "what's in it for me?"  Jail time?

 

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!
