Musk's private security deputized as U.S. Marshals.

Ok I'm looking for a name from this two-week-old story.

Who is the person who swore in these bodyguards into the U.S. Marshals Service?

That person needs to be on the list of people upon whom I am heaping my considerable disapproval energy.

Am I on the wrong track to want more names?

New York FBI branch chief James E. Dennehy is told by someone to turn in his retirement papers.

Who told him to do this? It wasn't an anonymous suggestion. It was a person Dennehy believes had the authority to order him to do it.

Is it unethical for Denney to disclose the source of the direction he received to retire?

Should it be irrelevant to me who that person is?

I am truly interested. If I am going to assemble a list of people upon whom I'm heaping my considerable disapproval energy, I need to know their identity.

Dear protective detail. Feed them to us.

Can't you see how hungry we are for their carrion?

Aren't you afraid of being mistook for one of them?

Amazing what a toddler undertakes to do.

Through ignorance and bold discovery.

Until somebody checks and balances them.

House Republicans are happy to let Trump break everything.

If they had to vote Yes on what Trump is doing, they would piss off their constituents on a recorded vote.

If they voted No on what Trump is doing, they would be subjected to personal bullying by Trump.

This way is just easier all the way around. Step aside and let Trump and Musk go wild.

Happy to see that voters are not, without strenuous objection, letting them get away with going wild against the public interest.

Prediction: U.S. President to insist on USA Pope.

No news to report.

But who would bet against such an arrogant move by someone with no sense of decorum about something which is none of his business?

And speaking of decorum, he is apparently being restrained by those around him to wait until the sitting Pontiff passes away.

Protective detail stand down. Military step up.

I think we've seen enough.

No need to wait any longer.

I don't see a Scams forum so True Crime it is.

I'm a subscriber to The Week with my credit card on file for automatic renewal. They charged me $249 for fifty-two weekly issues. I called them and said your website quotes $99 for fifty-two weeks. Oh that's for new subscribers. Your renewal rate is $149. Would you like us to refund $100? I said yes I would, and what was the extra hundred dollars for? Oh that's something we just do in case you aren't paying attention. Can you believe the frankness in regard to such open theft? I appreciate knowing, but not having to ask to find out.

Takin' It To the Streets (Live)

I was thinking that Takin' It To the Streets might be the right anthem to oppose DOGE.

But the acronym TITS didn't sound serious enough.

Dear White House Press Corps...

Do not travel with Trump or Musk.

I realize that it is prestigious to be invited along when they go places, but think of your own safety first.

Same advice to Fox News, Newsmax and OAN. Despite the affection you feel for your heroes and your delight in covering them, you should make your own travel arrangements.
