Covid. It's interesting to me that when the people I know who

don't believe a single thing the government says about Covid actually get it, they honor the quarantine rules.

Donald Trump was the tip of the spear, the enabler, the chief conspirator and the beating heart of

the failed insurrection. The testimony before the J6 Committee has more than proved this to be a fact. In the face of all of this, Trump continues to foment insurrection and will continue to do so until he faces the justice he so richly deserves. This country will survive the indictment, conviction and sentencing of Donald Trump. It will not survive doing nothing to bring him to justice. A couple of thoughts:

I am not salivating to see this fat old man serve actual prison time.....I would be happy to see him sentenced to many long years of home confinement with no access to the internet, a substantial forfeiture of his wealth and monitoring of his phone calls, correspondence and visitors. His lovely wife is welcome to join him in home confinement under the same conditions or she can reside elsewhere. I would allow him to have unlimited food and free access to his golden toilets. One of the reasons that I'm advocating this is because we, as taxpayers, would spend an obscene amount of money to house him in some government penal country club. Why not have this pestilence spend his own money.

I fondly hope that there are a few good men and women left in the Justice Department to walk out en masse if Garland doesn't indict this rotten bastard and his henchmen.

Schools, churches, a synagogue, a concert, a marathon, malls, a supermarket and now,

a 4th of July parade. Perpetrated, in large part, by young white men, enabled by the Republican Party and blessed by the Supreme Court of the United States. I'm afraid that the rot in this country goes very deep.

From what I'm hearing, two women put themselves between the shooter and

their kids while a bunch of guys with guns and badges stood out in the parking lot and peed in their pants.Have I got that right?

What happens when a desperate Putin throws another 300,000 conscripts at Ukraine?

It seems to me that Putin may have an unlimited supply of fighters, incompetent as they may be. We know that, to Putin, human beings are fungible. Putin's choices are limited... it's either to throw more bodies into this war or nukes. Your thoughts?
