What a beautiful morning!

The sunrises with the dark skies and are the best, most striking.

I wish to vent about how much I hate the use of the word "broken". As in "the health care system is broken" or "our public transportation system is broken". This implies that the system in question was in a whole, perfect state at some point in the past. Then some meanie came along and just broke it.

It reminds me of the story of the Garden of Eden - a perfect paradise that was "broken". Those who are fans of describing things as broken are also pining away for the historical moment when someone (a Democrat or Socialist) will come along and fix it all. It's annoying and oddly religious.

Some of these "Sunrise" photos are great "Sunset" photos.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

I saw sunrise this morning, after a night of observing. Mainly the Perseus arm; the next arm out from us in the galaxy.

gilbar said...

ALP is broken (up) about this : )
but but seriously, WHEN was the health care system NOT broken? It was born broken

Inga especially likes the middle one because it looks like a fascist flag. Gets her motor running. She's still coming down from her Furer's speech last night.

I assume you are referring to Fuhrer Biden's background for the speech.

It's been very sunny lately and I've been working outside, moving some stacks of cedar lumber from one location on our home site to another. It's hot work, and the sun screen has combined with the sweat to get into my eyes. That's the worst, my eyes sting like mad and it's hard to keep them open.

The cedar lumber was milled from cedar trees on our property. It's beautiful lumber, a rich yellowish-orange. Some of it will be used for fencing and some for a deck.

Inga, Howard, and the other moral midgets who can barely contain their Seig Heils! would do well to read a little Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Enemy-ness is a catching condition.

Thank you for breaking down the (evil) speech last night. I never listen to speeches, so I (dare I say it) rely on other people to give me the gist. I don't think I'd want to pour through a transcript either. Thing is, Althouse doesn't have to do this. She could always say, "I can't be bothered" then link to someone else's analysis.

Politics are something you tune out, so it's nice to have someone else do the heavy lifting--- a place to get raw recaps of all the nonsense. This may be the only place for people to get this type of balanced exposure to the the foolery going on.

--Certainly one of the most unique and original sites to get news---that you'd rather not deal with elsewhere.

Columnist Dana Milbank wrote an opinion piece entitled "Dear Insurrectionists and Fascists: I’m sorry I offended you" in the WaPo.

As a Metro DC resident, you would think he could get his locations straight.

"I regret that the heads and bodies of police officers got in the way of your truncheons and flagpoles while you were engaging in Legitimate Political Discourse at the Capitol. I hope that you didn’t hurt your fingers while gouging their eyes and that their blood didn’t stain your tactical assault gear; if it did, please send me the dry-cleaning bill! I am so sorry that, on your Normal Tourist Visit, you didn’t get to use your noose or all the guns stockpiled at the Comfort Inn in Alexandria. Please forgive me for previously quibbling with your plan to “hang Mike Pence” and your use of the Confederate flag in the halls of Congress. I apologize that you had to break windows and doors, climb scaffolding and rappel into the Senate chamber. My bad! Next time you want to overthrow an American election, just knock."

The Comfort Inn chock full of military-style weaponry was in Arlington, not Alexandria.

JZ said...

The governor of Texas sent some illegal immigrants to Chicago, another of the Sanctuary cities. I hope he increases the number of buses sent to cities that want to boast about their high moral standards. How about Grand Rapids and Detroit, Mich. ? I hear they harbor undocumented migrants. They should experience the costs of their beliefs.

Biden: Trump voters are fascists and a threat to Democracy.

Republicans: Did you hear that?

WaPo: Look at these guys playing the victim again!

I am struggling to understand who the target audience was for President Soiled Pants speech. It would appear to me, a mere political novice, the audience was his base and the Jonah Goldberg types, which he already has. I would suggest he dissuaded everyone else. What a fool.

"Whoops I did an accidental fascism and declared war on most of the country and am now going to dramatically and absurdly walk it back after my corporate media legion humiliated themselves by defending me." -- Joe Biden

Jefferson's Revenge said...

Meanwhile in the world most voters care about;

Kids are going back to school after having lost 1-2 years of educational and social progress
The administration still can’t explain the cost of their tuition debt program
The Fed has declared their stated goal to create a recession to cool the labor market and put people out of work
Russia has cut off natural gas to Europe right before winter
The Chinese economy craters, creating massive unemployment among males in their 20’s - the perfect ingredient for a convenient war
California wants to ban gas cars but has no reliable electric grid for e-cars

I could go on all day.

Yet Biden has us all talking about Trump and we, and Trump, fall for it. When the D’s increase the Senate margin, take the House and Biden then packs the court and declares DC a state with 2 Senators, we can blame ourselves for caring more about Trump than our country’s future.

Leland said...

Interesting that a few weeks after raid Mar-a-Lago, the FBI needed to put out an updated inventory list. Wouldn't they have known what they took from Mar-a-Lago when they left? Isn't this essentially the same crime that Trump is accused, having taken things that belonged to others? And before someone says, "but no, it was about the classified documents"; then they need to look at the revised inventory list, which is mostly magazines and some clothing. Are the magazines Presidential records too? Clothing?

Deranged. It removes any doubt that Biden fired on Ft. Sumter. His loyal foot soldiers are jumping to follow his lead.

Joe Bidens press secretary is as big a liar as he is...

KJP: "We have created nearly ten thousand million jobs since President Biden took office, which is the fastest job growth in history."

More than twice the population of the Earth? That is impressive 🤪

Quaestor Anon: I know you are upset that someone in authority called out you people for what you are. I am glad you feel comfortable using me as a shoulder to cry on.

Howie: “It’s not your fault.”
Quaestor: “I know that.”
H: “Look at me, son. It’s not your fault.”
Q: “I know.”
H: “No. No, you don’t. It’s not your fault.”
Q: “Alright.”
H: “It’s not your fault… it’s not your fault.” Q: “Don’t f*ck with me.”
H: “It’s not your fault.”
Q: “Don’t f*ck with me. Don’t f*ck with me, Howie. Not you!”
H: “It’s not your fault.”
Q: (crying) “Oh, God! I’m so sorry.”
H: “F*ck them, OK

It had been unclear what role Thibault played in the Biden investigation, which began in 2018. But his oversight of Bobulinski means he oversaw one of the most significant witnesses to come forward with information about the Bidens’ business links to China.

I'm curious. Maybe somebody here can answer my question. See, I have a MAGA Extremist neighbor who I'd like to turn in to the Biden Administration for disposal.

I know he's a MAGA Extremist because he didn't vote for Biden. He's an "election denier" because he quotes Hillary Clinton saying her election was stolen. He cheered when the Supreme Court returned the abortion question for the states to decide. He's "extremist" because he doesn't agree with "the majority" in the country. Likes to say he's a "rugged individualist" (obv code words and hate speech).

How do I turn this extremist in? He's a threat to our very democracy. A "clear and present danger to the United States of America" to quote our American president.

He needs to be droned by our President Biden. This is a "battle for the very soul of our nation," right? Well, here's the target. Where's the weapon? Where's the ammo? How do I get this guy on the enemies list?

I can't figure out which web page to report him on. Do I just call the FBI and poof, they murder him? How is this "threat to our Democracy" handled exactly? There's an election coming up and I'm afraid for our Democracy that he might actually not vote for the Biden hand-picked candidate he is so extreme. That's an "imminent threat."

How do I get Biden to kill this guy before he votes again?

Buckwheathikes -

Those a excellent questions.

How do we help Biden turn our nation into a Soviet empire of clean uniform thoughts? and democrat party-only forced-loyalty worhsip?

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

Is there a phone number the Glorious and all-loving Soviet-Democrats can set up so that neighbors can turn in other neighbors?
Will Joe Biden and his glorious KGB-FBI set up re-education camps for horrible "Make America Great Again" people?

Perhaps the left can clear out 74 million undesirables with Nazi-style extermination gas chambers?

The one that, at best, will only duplicete what we did in the 1960's.

At unbelievably high expense.

And its already been scrubbed.

Next steps for the Establishment Space Industrial Complex Permanent Jobs and Taxpayer Funds Money Laundering Program masquerading as a Space Program?

Billions more dollars for the ineffective failures and more criticism/delays/investigations into SpaceX.

Hasn't Alaska had "ranked choice" voting forever? So why all of the sudden is the Right freaking out about a state they've dominated with that very system in place, for years? Or maybe Tom Cotton and others were always trying to get rid of it, and Althouse was always blogging about it, and we missed it?

Narr said...

Thanks Curious G.

A pretty young W/white woman (private-school teacher, mother of two) was abducted yesterday at 430am while taking her daily jog in the UM Campus area. There is one blurry image of a dark colored SUV involved, and that's all that is known as of a short while ago.

It has made the networks. When my wife--dear woman--asked why this one gets national attention I just said, "Young, white, pretty."

She seems to think that more is required. If the woman had been a 62 y.o. twice-divorced ex-con with tattoos and the clap, it would barely make the police blotter.



Drago said...

harrogate: "Hasn't Alaska had "ranked choice" voting forever?"

No. It was approved in 2020 after Murkowski's pro-dem staff worked the Alaska dems and other pro-dem FakeCon's to sell it.

Narr,
And if there was footage of the perp who was b/Black, the only description would be of the car or the hat he was wearing.

Pretty young abductee update. The news stories mentioned that she was from a very prominent and wealthy Memphis family, but her married surname didn't mean anything to me. As it happens-and this is the publicity powerball, factor number four making it national news--her people are the p. and w., not her husband's.

Money changes everything.

walter said...

"-her people are the p. and w., not her husband's."
Pls translate that hipster talk.

harrogate said...

"No. It was approved in 2020"

Thanks for the clarification, Drago. FWIW I agree with those who think ranked choice voting is kinda stupid.
