(NSFW (not safe for work) ?)

Happy V-E (Victory in Europe) Day. ! Across the world, nations that had been once occupied by Germany and those that fought to defeat her, remember May 8th. May 8th, 2024, however, is also seeing continued anti-Israel demonstrations across college campuses that are being dealt with varying degrees of effectiveness. And also, Donald Trump's legal issues could begin to ameliorate.


The phrase "not safe for work" refers to employees at a workstation where if "adult" material is seen on the screen, and a supervisor happens by, it is not a good ides to such imagery displayed. From what has been reported, Stormy Danials' testimony at the Trump hush money trial. The former adult film star knew how to describe, in detail, elements of any alleged affair with Donald Trump. The not safe for work part. It was what Danials' said on the stand, about Trump's silk pajamas, and basically a one-night stand. Details of Danials' testimony, however, are not germane to the charges in question. Trump attorney's asked for a mis-trial but that was denied by the judge. The point here is that Stormy Daniels did nothing to advance the case against Trump. However, almost two thirds of those polled say that the former President will probably be found guilty on one or more charges and they are probably right.


Elsewhere, however, Trump's legal situation has improved some. Fulton County District Attorney, Fany Willis, is being investigated for her behavior in Trump's election interference case. Her disposition is in the hands of a Georgia court and if it decides she needs to be removed, the case gets a reset. And, in the improper maintenance of classified material, a jurist has yet to be impaneled. But a conviction from New York, the strongest case against Trump. as weak as it is in reality, but "fairness" was never on this docket.


So, with Trump on trial in Manhattan under a gag order that could land him in jail, President Biden is on the trail in Wisconsin. At the same time, he is halting munitions shipments to Israel just as it is reaching its point of decision against Hamas. If terminal operations can be concluded before the Biden weapons' interruptions cause logistical issues, then attitudes at the White House can be further isolated.


But, extenuate the positive. V-E Day concluded an epic struggle and while the struggles now might be Trump in the court room with a bad attitude actress, but President Biden trying to campaign with an open border and a lack of campus control. That being said, however, V-E Day could just as easily be V-T Day because he had a good time in courts, not safe for work.

Siege Of The Alamo

(Siege Of The Alamo) Any visitor to Downtown San Antonio will recognize the City's most famous landmark, the Alamo. An old Spanish mission that means "Cottonwood" in English was the site where the likes of Jim Bowie, William Barrett Travis and Davy Crockett and about another 185 Texians defended the Mission and its compound for thirteen days against the Army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana and his 5,000 troops. The garrison was finally reduced on March 6, 1836. However, the Texian defeat at the Alamo and another one at Goliad, bought time for General Sam Houston time to fall back and then face Santa Ana at San Jacinto. There, Houston's army surprised the Mexicans and yelling "Remember the Alamo, Remember Goliad !" all but wiped out the Mexican force. Santa Ana was captured and was forced to recognize the Republic of Texas. Which is now the State of Texas and, like 1836 Texas War of Independence, there is a new invasion from Mexico. Not the armed body o

TEQUILA !

(TEQUILA !) Happy Cinco de Mayo or May 5th. One can hope that a lot of you out there are awash in inebriation, seeking to mainline tequila shots or enjoying a nice margarita on the patio. Or, in other words, relax. Take a breath. De-compress. May 5th as it happens is the anniversary of Mexico's victory over French "occupation" of Mexico by Emperor Maximillian, brother to Austrian monarch Maria Theresa in what has been called the Battle of Puebla. The reason France was in Mexico in the first place was that Mexico, after the Mexican-American War and a more civil conflict called the Reform War, had bankrupted Mexico City. Mexican President at the time was Benito Juarez, who repudiated all foreign debt, of which France, Spain, and the United Kingdom were all major holders. A naval expedition was dispatched to Veracruz and France's Napoleon III thought it would be a good idea to establish a French "empire" in Mexico. But, on May 5th, 1862, in the aforementioned B

Intended Consequences

(Intended Consequences) For those Readers who live in the Tri-State area, who had the earthquake this morning, just be still.  There is a postulate called the Law of Un-Intended Consequences. Basically, it says that even with the best intentions, negative results sometimes happen. However, there are also instances when a negative result is precisely the desired outcome. Like with the Israel- Hamas war where the Biden Administration continues to press for an all but unilateral ceasefire on the part of Israel. In California, the new $20/HR minimum wage is wreaking havoc on the fast food industry. And finally, after depleting the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, oil has now become too expensive. How many times must the Biden Administration think it can influence Israeli affairs ? How many times must Israel ignore it. Threats from the President have become redundant at this point but is Biden really prepared to cut Israel loose ? In the middle of the greatest crisis Israel is facing since the
