Look, maybe it’s just me, although I doubt it, but I think the Repuoicans attacking Vindman was just silly.

Why did you wear your full dress uniform?  Because I can and you can’t.  And here is my purple heart.  Remember when Trump took one an old veteran offered and said, “I’ve always wanted one of these.”  Remember that? That was weird.

Have you ever talked to Donald Trump?  No, but as the White House’s top Ukraine advisor, you’d think an intellectually curious president would want to talk to me, ya think?

Somebody smarter than I am just noticed that Trump has tweeted or re-tweeted 26 times since 9:00 am this morning.  I wish we had a president.

I have some good news for folks looking forward to a blue Texas.

Only 43 percent of Texas voters approve of the president’s overall job performance, according to a University of Texas-Tyler poll released Monday. 49 percent disapprove.

He’s supposed to be in Austin on Wednesday meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook.  I doubt he’ll get a welcoming crowd.  It’s Austin – it’s royal blue.  With glitter, and a spotlight on it.

Like you, I’ve got one ear glued to the teevee and will note anything big that happens.  If I get distracted, let me know.

Meanwhile, Trump got another doctor to lie for him.

The letter also says the President has “not had any chest pain” and was not treated for “urgent or acute issues.” It also lists his cholesterol levels.

Yeah. Right.

Well, the Federal Elections Commission seems to be having fun snooping around to find the fake Political Action Committees.

Let’s take a peek

(Go notice the address of that one.

John Bel Edward’s victory speech was perfectly lovely.

If you can’t say something nice, you can always say bless his heart.

Thanks to Vance for the heads up.

CBS News is reporting a *possible* pay-to-pay scheme involving the Ambassador to the Bahamas.  Did the guy buy his post?

Doug Manchester a California developer donated a million dollars to Trump’s inauguration fund and then, while his conformation was stalled in committee, he was asked by the RNC to donate half a million dollars to the RNC prior to his conformation hearing.  So, Manchester replied to the RNC that his wife would donate $100,000 immediately and then when his name to be ambassador got the House floor for a vote, he would get the remaining $400,000 from his family.

Draining the swamp?

Once all this was discovered, Trump dropped his nomination.

When asked about it, Manchester explained, “Hey, that’s politics.”
