Trump got what he wanted from the poorly educated voters he claimed to love. He won the election, so now he’s tossing the suckers aside like everybody else he’s used throughout his life. Will Trump pardon his January 6 mob, now that he no longer needs them?

Two extremes about the same thing, where the circumstances couldn’t be more different.
When it’s rape…

Russia’s billionaire oligarchs are allowed to exist at Putin’s discretion. They know they’re dead if they attempt to influence government policy. With the return of Trump to the White House, we now have “Oligarchy, American Style.”
Trump let the richest man in the world dictate policy, then he followed his lead, giving Musk the appearance of acting as de facto president-elect. It’s bizarre. This is a marriage of convenience that won’t have a happy ending. Until Musk has been sidelined, J.D. Vance is effectively out of the picture.
Last week I caught a comment on a news item about the drone sightings over New Jersey that made me wonder if it was for real or just a troll’s idea of a joke. Some guy ranted the government is lying to us about everything, including the space program. His proof? All of those fake space photos that don’t have stars.
Replying to something like that can go one of two ways, depending on the assumption about the comment being genuine or a joke. If the person making the comment isn’t joking, do they simply not know, or do they have a political axe to grind?
As the saying goes, you’re entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts. The quote has been attributed to Patrick Moynihan, but it dates back much further than that.

So, what are the facts explaining why some space photos don’t have any stars?
I paid off the mortgage on my house twelve years ago. Now I’m aging in place and depriving some young, deserving family of a home.
I’ve said it before. We’re living with the consequences of interest rates being kept too low for too long.
