Droning On

It’s been a quick, but busy, 30 days since Kamala Harris stopped droning on about being “unburdened from what has been.”

Now we’ve got drones over New Jersey airspace unburdened by any American government department.  Yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense said they don’t know their origin or purpose, but there’s nothing to worry about.   Comforting indeed.

Perhaps the Chinese “weather balloon” that traversed across the sky high above us for days on end 18 months ago was deemed a trial success.  Before you know it Boeing 737 MAXs will be airborne again as well.  Hallelujah, we think.

President Joe Biden’s been flying high too.  His trip to Africa was a long but successful one.   Biden’s visit, the first to Angola by a U.S. president, is meant to promote billions of dollars of commitments to the sub-Saharan African nation for what he called the largest ever U.S. rail investment overseas.

“The United States is all in on Africa,” he said between naps in meetings.

This comes a day after his 50-billion-dollar loan pledge to Ukraine.  Hell hath no fury like a President scorned. Dr. Jill was back stateside openly mocking Kamala beginning her speech by asking everyone to have “joy.”  Hell hath no fury like a First Lady scorned.

Christopher Wray is wrapping up his tenure as FBI Director.  He knows that a new sheriff is coming to DC soon.  If Mickey Donovan had the same sensibility for his son Ray Ray a lot of hubbub could have been avoided.

Wray’s wrap is ahead of the parade.  When the Kings of DOGE hit DC the real towel-waving begins.

The “experiment” of lesser government wrapped up one year in Argentina. It should be viewed as a blueprint.

President Javier Milei announced a tax reform plan to eliminate 90 percent of existing taxes after slicing 18 government ministries to nine reducing the country’s inflation year over year from 25.5% to 2.7%.  It’s terrible to subject citizens to such bloat for so long.

It’s also terrible that more than a few zealots took to social media to cheer the murder of the head of UnitedHealthcare exclaiming that you have to challenge the medical establishment.  Weren’t some of them the same ones wanting you dead for criticizing Pfizer, the vaccine that wasn’t a vaccine, and the booster that wasn’t a booster?

Maybe permanent social distancing isn’t a bad idea.
