My First Thoughts Were -- Did Trump Pay These BBC Hacks To Do This or Are They That Stupid?

Keep calm and sue them all?

That is the approach President Donald Trump appears to be taking, now threatening the British Broadcasting Corporation with a lawsuit similar to his past shakedowns of CBS News and others on this side of the pond.

Trump’s lawyers threatened in a letter that they may seek as much as $1 billion in damages over a deceptive edit the British public broadcaster made in a documentary about the Jan.

Democrats, Start Your Engines!

Congressional Democrats are livid after a handful of their Senate colleagues voted Sunday to advance the House-passed stopgap and end the government shutdown.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) called it a mistake. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) called it “a very bad night.” And Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Ca.) and Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) accused Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of being ineffective and called for his removal.

Any Bets That Her Pardon Is Coming Soon?

Convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has been given a puppy as part of the preferential treatment she is receiving in a low security prison camp in Texas.

Time To Deflate Photo

If you're wondering why I am showing you an easel....well, I bought this one over the weekend for $30 at a discount store in Liberia. Very nice finish, foldable but it came without instructions. So when I returned home,  I googled the only sticker on the box which said, item # G85. I checked Google images and there it was, for sale on Amazon for $522.15. I'm thrilled as I am saving $ to enclose my back porch when the dry season arrives.

Peace and quiet.
