The way I've looked at it is, there has never been, and never will be, a bottom with Trump and his ilk.

There is a temptation is to describe what happened yesterday as somehow a “new low.”

But it’s not a new low. It’s the same old low. A scene we’ve seen repeated so often there is a kind of numbness to it.

Trump’s escalator drama caused by his videographer, not sabotage: UN
The UN says Trump’s escalator stop was likely triggered by his videographer accidentally activating a safety mechanism.

I spotted this on that other site today; posting for all of the BlueSky Hounds!
Sad-looking greyhound looks at the “missing” picture of her human on the milk carton on the counter. The human walks in, saying, “Oh for crying out loud, I was gone for five minutes!”

Little offered to Vietnam farmers displaced for $1.5 billion Trump golf club
While some see opportunity, many of the farmers are elderly and fear they will struggle to find alternative livelihoods in Vietnam's vibrant economy.

My kid told me what he thought of the statewide school cell phone ban. The last part gutted me a little.

www.dmagazine.com/micropost/af...
Last year, my 14-year-old son’s school enacted a ban for the second half of the year. He, by and large, said it was “fine,” until the last few days of class, when “it got boring when we didn’t even have laptops and the teachers were done teaching.” He also chafed at the idea a bit, as expected, but also allowed that he knew some of his peers were misusing their phones. He told me that he felt like districts and teachers should set their own rules, because sometimes phones were actually helpful in class. “Have they ever heard of just requiring us to turn our phones off?” he asked during a tiny rant. “What are these pouches? It sounds like Big Pouch got a hold of Texas. We should follow the money on that.” I told him that most of my parent friends and teachers were happy about the ban. He grumped a bit and then said something that kind of hit me in the guts. “It is just kind of dumb and sad that they (the lawmakers) decided something like that was a priority, but they can’t do anything about school shootings,” he said. “Lockdown drills are also distracting. Why don’t we do something that means we don’t have to have them?”
