It’s been over a month since my last Comments and Opinions post. And it has been busy out there.
_1 The Government shutdown is one more example of a Congress that just doesn’t work anymore. Everything has become so politicized that compromise is no longer possible. The only way there is agreement is when everyone gets what they want which is the primary reason why we have a $37 trillion national debt rapidly enroute to $40 trillion.
_2 Trump’s tariff gambit continues to cripple our economy and there seems to be no end in sight. This is becoming like an episode from The Twilight Zone.
_3 Speaking of The Twilight Zone our friends and family members from the Left will be holding nationwide "No Kings" pep rallies for the Democratic party on October 18. For those unable to attend, be sure to catch it on CBS Sunday Morning with Jane Pauley.
_4 While it was great to see the ceasefire and hostage release in Gaza, I remain skeptical about there being a lasting peace there.
_5 Before last week, I didn’t know who Katie Porter
was. If her political career is indeed over,
there’s always Roller Derby or Lucha Libre.
