If DJT is really having some kind of medical issue,

does anyone here expect this White House to tell us the truth about it? During his first term, didn't he go to Walter Reed at 8:00 at night for what they called a "routine physical"?

Ai slop is not even needed for fake support of Trump. I am on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Maybe I get worried about anyone I know in America who may still have a job they need and start to become more superficially polite cyclically.

It is not cowardice, but butterfly effects and all. One plays it by the ear wrt actions that one does not want impacting anyone else. I really cannot tell how bad it is over there.

You are on the ground. I live half way across the globe, but have people I worry about every day. Low grade worry, but still. I don’t contact them anymore since the US seems like the old USSR best case. Nazi Germany would be worse.

Or maybe it is not even that. My thinking on these things is not very clear often. Maybe it is just saving one’s energy for conflict prioritizing what is immediately relevant. But while sexual harassment is always relevant to the conflict I am in, I had been ignoring it and trying to keep the conflict focused on less distressing stuff. However, I have finally had enough.

And this week I saw the story about the 13 yo Trump assaulted and whether it is E Jeanne or this child, sexual harassment, assault etc really anger me as in every part of the world I witness women’s rights steadily degrade daily without exciting much more than a yawn and a shrug. I have personally seen that for 15 14 years and 8 months in two countries (the US and India).

This 13yo is one of the most sympathetic Epstein victims I have read about. They all are. But I am a “boy-girl” myself - apparently a reference to being a tomboy - and felt really bad for this kid who seems to have lead a pretty hard life. And as much outrage fatigue as had set in, as with the first time I read about E Jeanne, I was disgusted. I believe the kid.

My main formula re: what I put on my journal (I.e. what you do not need a DU account to access is) tied to sexual harassment, stalking and other complaints I am filing wrt the last 14.66 years.

I find it rather difficult to keep track of what they said and when they said it. There's so much BS flying out of their lying mouths on a daily basis I get confused!

Assuming they will bother to appear to be following the law, they'll wait until the first day Vance can have two terms of his own. Then finally get rid of Krasnov.

Supposed to rain in DC area tomorrow so Trump has an excuse to avoid the golf course, but Monday is supposed to be a nice cool sunny day, and he's supposed to be at the WH Easter egg roll.

Time for a Trump Stake.



Asked if his demise would boost the value of TrumpCoin, now a collector's item,



An analyst said NO, there are too many Trumps already


Silver has had a pretty sharp decline since January, when administration officials each received their 30 pieces of silver for selling out the United States of America. The distribution lowered the price.

I didn't see if Avianca takes pieces of silver for fares.

Thirty pieces of silver was the price for which Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus, according to an account in the Gospel of Matthew.

That requires periodic MRIs. At this stage of the treatment (the 14th infusion) a new MRI is required. Under the protocol, the last MRI was required before the 7th infusion, which is why we have not heard anything about this recently. I'm sure he can get the Leqembi infusions in the WH, but he may have to go to Walter Reed for the MRI. I don't know if they have an MRI inside the WH.

_____________

This is turning into last year's Labor Day, " Trump hasn't been seen for a day. Trump is dead. Trump has a body double"

Earlier today, the WH announced that Trump would be in executive session due to Iran. Hence he was not having a press conference today.
