For years I felt if I was reading for pleasure it meant that I was not writing. Since I have two finished unpublished novels and a third to be published next year, I have given myself permission to reading more and writing less. This one is a winner!

Won’t swear in Arizona Attorney General. Says the ballroom the felon is illegally having built will be amazing. Says democrats are responsible for the shutdown. Mike Johnson, you are a little sniveling weasel. Wait. That’s not nice. My apologies…to the weasels.

I watched this last night and it was fascinating. The only frustration was how Ann Coulter threw in some of her snarky false narratives while every one else stayed on topic:
