Moving on

May 1, 2025

Ottawa Senators tied Maple Leafs in the 3rd period until Toronto went ahead for good 3-2 with 5:39 left. Leafs improved to 2-13 (!) in potential series-clinching games since 2018. Wonder how many past & present Toronto fans figured Leafs would blow THIS 3-0 series lead?

(lived in Toronto 4 of 5 years between 1968 to 1973- when we moved there the Leafs were GOOD.)

–

Entering the playoffs, apprarently more money had been wagered on the Los Angeles Lakers to win the Finals than on any other team at multiple sportsbooks. Thoughts and prayers.

–

Anyone else ever think that when Donald has a chance to make any appointment he asks himself “Who is the worst person I can possibly choose?” and then picks them just to prove he can?

–

Tommy Tuberville actually defending Pete Hegseth today on Senate floor. He’s attacking Democratic colleagues, “RINOs” & media who criticize Pete as wanting America to fail.. Your reminder that the last two universities who hired Coach Tubby paid him millions to go away.

–

So now Waltz is the nominee for Ambassador to the United Nations. Yeah, I’m sure other countries will feel very confident dealing with a man who Fubared up US National Security so badly with Signalgate that he got fired.

–

So did Trump nominate Mike Waltz for UN Ambassador to keep him from writing a tell-all book?

–

Trump claims he deserves a “pass” on the GDP contracting because it’s Biden’s fault? But he also demands his cabinet cult praise him for the best 100 days ever in our country? Make it makes sense.

–

Can we start calling it the Trump Cult Cabinet?

–

Donald Trump fired Doug Emhoff, who is Jewish, along with other Biden appointees. from the the United States Holocaust Memorial Council. Who is Velveeta Voldemort going to replace Emhoff with, David Duke?

–

So much gaslighting. When many Americans can’t afford to buy groceries due to tariffs will Trump claim it’s all part of his plan to have us lose weight?

–

So in Trump world, some kids who would have had 30 dolls for Christmas now will get two. But those children whose parents’ could barely afford one doll will get zero. Trump Tariffs are a war on Christmas.

Trump is now vowing to defund PBS and NPR

A war on Easter with egg prices

A war on Christmas with tariffs on toys.

Now a war on Elmo and Cookie Monster?

–

Americans, when you can’t afford to buy one doll this Christmas, let alone necessities, think of Thom Tillis (NC) Jon Husted (OH) Pete Ricketts (NE) Steve Daines (MT) Joni Ernst (IA) Dan Sullivan (AS) & other GOP Senators running in 2026 who wouldn’t vote against Trump tariffs.

Decisions decisions…

February 3, 2025

RIP Fay Vincent. Was he the last MLB commissioner?

–

Jimmy Butler has (reportedly) said he would not sign an extension if he was traded to the Golden State Warriors. Which might be the best news Warriors fans have had all year.

(Who wouldn’t want a complete spoiled brat who’s gotten his own team to suspend him three times this year already?

–

Dallas Mavericks inexplicably traded their 25 year old superstar Luka Doncic.

Your reminder, the current majority Mavs owner, Miriam Adelson, is one of Donald Trump’s biggest donors, almost in Elon Musk’s league. She was seated behind Bill Clinton at the inaugural.

Happiest person in Dallas about the Doncic trade has to be Jerry Jones. For at least a little while he won’t be the most hated owner in Texas.

–

“Canada has been very abusive of the United States for many years.” So who had trying to start a war with our neighbor to the north on their Trump batsh*t bingo list?


After illegally installing two SCOTUS judges & keeping Trump from being convicted on his second impeachment trial, Mitch McConnell now is speaking out against Donald. If he wants to do anything useful he should get GOP colleague or two to vote against Kash Patel. For starters.

–

I like her style.

Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s former finance minister & Liberal party possible future Prime Minister, has proposed slapping 100% tariffs on select American goods, including Teslas.

–

On United flight approaching SFO today, suddenly started ascending again. Pilot said Air Traffic Control decided we didn’t have enough “separation” between us & plane in front. Circled & landed w/o incident about 15 min later. Thinking a lot of nervous ATC folks these days.

–


Trump’s tariffs are direct violation of trade deal HE signed with Canada and Mexico. Guess we shouldn’t be shocked. As a businessman who broke most promises he made in private sector & regularly refused to pay contractors, Trump is turning USA into one of his failed businesses.

–

As Canada releases their first tariff list, it starts out “The list includes products such as orange juice,..” Let’s see, what state produces almost ALL US orange juice.. And it only means about $7 billion a year to the Florida economy.

FAFO

–

Donald Trump has now started a war of words with the Wall Street Journal… calling the newspaper ‘always wrong.”

A phrase I don’t write very often -sounds like the WSJ editorial board nailed it.

Drugs may be an excuse since Mr Trump has made clear he likes tariffs for their own sake.”

–

WTAF? Meghan McCain says “To any Senator who votes against Tulsi Gabbard for DNI that “I will make it my personal mission to help campaign and fundraise against you in your next election.” So a generous view of this is that her father taught her well about reverse psychology.
