70sEraVet's JournalI just saw a photo of JD in a Guardian article on the latest round of....
US/Iran talks. JD's expression speaks volumes. I cropped the photo down to the corner with JD's face. What do you suppose he's thinking about?
I like to imagine that his political future just flashed before his eyes! 
Here is the article:

We only have trump's and hegseth's WORD that Iran downed the Apache helicopter?
According to US officials, Iran used a drone to launch the attack on the helicopter. But it is not clear whether the Iranian drone had deliberately attacked, an unnamed US official told CBS News, the BBC's US partner. The semi-official Mehr News Agency reported that Iran had not claimed responsibility for the downed aircraft.https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cze9359gglyo
Oh, I know -- its 'unpatriotic' to question our government in times of war (or 'conflict', or 'skirmish' or whatever the hell this is. Its ALWAYS been unpatriotic to ask questions -- whether it was when President Polk insisted that Mexico attacked American soldiers on AMERICAN SOIL, or when a US Navy boat was under attack in Vietnam by a pair of DOLPHINS, or when Colin Powell declared to our allies that the US had proof that Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass Destruction!
While it has always been difficult to trust our government, this time it is MORE DIFFICULT THAN EVER!!
Note that apparently Iran has not claimed responsibility for downing that helicopter. I would think that they would be bragging about it if they had. I have no doubt that the airspace over Iran is littered with drones -- Iranian, Israeli and American!
Hegseth, at D-Day event, says Europe faces 'invasion' of dangerous ideologies
Source: MSN
"Sadly, today, different European beaches are stormed by different, dangerous ideologies. Beaches in Spain, Italy, Greece and Bulgaria, boats and men arrive," Hegseth said in a speech at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer.
"When will European capitals do something about that invasion or is it too late? I pray not, and I believe not," he said.

This is why we shouldn't send a wanna-be Nazi to represent us at a D-Day commemoration ceremony.
I have the PERFECT solution for trump concerning the Kennedy Center!
He can be in compliance with U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper's order by just REDACTING his name from the building. That way, even though his name will not be on it, everyone will know that it's really HIS name!
I just learned that I am in a different Congressional district
Unless this redistricted squiggled nightmare is successfully challenged in Court, my new district looks like this:
That loooonnng skinny leg on the left reaches down to grab a piece of Memphis. I think on the top right, it grabs Fort Cambell.
I just hope this will not pass muster in Court. The law breakers ... I mean lawmakers, had to remove the rule from the state's Constitution that forbade redistricting Congressional districts mid-decade, so they could then vote to do just that.
My oldest daughter just visited 'The Gentle Barn' in St. Louis
She and her husband went, and my daughter had a picture of her and Chico, the ringleader of the St. Louis Six. Very sweet. A great story about the Gentle Barn and the St. Louis Six --
