Thanksgiving...so much for one as privileged as I to be grateful for, beginning with love of my life, friends, and where we live. There was also Cat, who was not yet deigning to join, as he disdains human food.

This meet at the White House: how is it possible our nation never runs out of unbelievable twists and turns, and does them every single day, many times a day?

Our Mayor Elect, Zohran Mamdani, has been scheduled to a meet in D.C. with that guy. Does anyone else speculate, on the basis of that guy's behaviors this year, that guy may think he's talking with Kash Patel instead? After all everyone looks alike, doncha know!
