Morning Tom. Morning Blue skiers everywhere. It's time for me to put the Xmas Decs up. They've been sitting in a box on the sofa for a week. It's 1 artificial tree vs 5 cats this year. I don't think much of its chances.

The Hachiko team visited Oleksandrivka, which was bombed by Russia yesterday for no reason. Residents are making repairs & grandma Olena takes care of 30 cats here. This white cat was concussed from the blasts and barely able to eat, so we are going to get her some help.

Libertarians are usually right about government overreach and foreign policy moves. But that's about it.
Rand Paul: "All these designations are steps towards war -- calling drug runners terrorists, saying, 'Oh, if they have a designation'-- Well, how'd they get it? We gave it to them. Why is the former president of Honduras released? So some narcoterrorists are okay & others we're going to blow up"
