I keep thinking about this weird thing where the DOJ is investigating Jerome Powell for allegedly lying to the Senate about renovations (even though no senators have accused him of lying), while Kristi Noem told the Senate Trump approved her $220M ad campaign and Trump himself said that wasn't true.

The Kids Are Alright show at NOLA Brewing

This teens show at NOLA abrewing seems to have been a huge success. I'm thankful places are willing to do something like this. Even if these kids can't drink, they sure seemed to put away a ton of food.

Unlike the Florida man who started a war with Iran with no fuckin' exit plan, this guy had a goal...to save the soul of an alligator...not sane, but a goal.

Pardon Industry Offers Rich Offenders a Path to Trump One inmate paid lobbyists and lawyers with ties to the president’s team and walked free. Others are following his blueprint, but it is not always clear who can deliver.

A former nursing-home owner, who had been convicted of tax crimes, paid a lawyer and lobbyist at least $100,000 to help secure a pardon from President Trump and walked free. Others are following his blueprint in a lucrative pardon industry that has emerged around Trump.

I'm in a pagan group. One evening during a sea ritual at the beach one of our more prominent members said that she heard a song in the waves that was in another language, and everyone was awestruck. In fact, it was just me singing a song from Moana. I can't tell anyone.

We're at a point where there are no cheap options to retreat to and no price points that guarantee quality. Every run-down studio is $1400, every fast food meal is $17, every luxury condo has peel-n-stick tiles, every $300 pair of boots falls apart. Endless expensive mediocrity.

Many people are saying that Noem has called Trump to ask for a blanket pardon.

The use of AI to identify targets (without subsequent specific human confirmation) should be considered a war crime.

And by that I don't mean "we should make a rule" I mean that straightforward application of the existing rules would tell you that it is a war crime.

β€œThe president approved ahead of time you spending $220 million running TV ads across the country in which you are featured prominently?” Republican Senator John Kennedy asked Noem during Tuesday’s hearing.
β€œYes sir, we went through the legal processes–” Noem said.
β€œDid the president know you were gonna do this?” Kennedy interjected.
Noem answered again in the affirmative multiple times. β€œI’m not saying you’re not telling the truth. It’s just hard for me to believe, knowing the president, as I do, that you said, β€˜Mr. President, here’s some ads I’ve cut, and I’m going to spend $220 million running them,’ that he would have agreed to that,” Kennedy said. β€œI don’t think Russ Vought” at the Office of Management and Budget β€œwould have agreed to that,” he added.
These frustrations have prompted the president to privately express his openness to replacing her, according to a person familiar with the matter. One name he has begun floating this week as a potential replacement: Oklahoma’s junior U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin.

Of all the bad looks from this week's hearings with Kristi Noem, it is not that she's NOT deporting the worst of the worst, that her fuck bunny signs contracts, OR that she has tanked his polling on most popular issue. It's that she claims he knew of her corrupt propaganda contract.

Not a tiny fragment, nor a single sherd of pottery, but a full, voluminous Anglo-Saxon space from the 9th century at St Wystan’s in Repton, Derbyshire. The spiral columns - perhaps a memory of St Peter’s shrine. Holy air encased in stone. Betjeman’s words describe it perfectly.
