Crazy Nancy outdoes herself

Childishly ripping up her copy of the president’s State of the Union speech as he concluded it was crazy in the extreme. It was meant to upstage him and it did. The move will be immortalized in Trump campaign ads. It will add to calls within her Dim party that she step down as Speaker.

It’s a pity that the first woman Speaker of the House is such a loony tune.

UPDATE: Newt Gingrich called her action “viciously partisan” and one Republican rep said he fears for the country. As well he might, since her fellow Dimocrats gave her a standing O.

Rule 5: Maria Gimena

Second of the third II

Here’s a mystery that could use solving.

My OCS friend Russ Wheat was wounded in both legs in Viet Nam and sent to Japan for treatment. Where OCS classmate Rick Wilson, who was posted with an Armor unit in South Korea, ran into him on a leave:

“We met in a bar in Japan where he was holding court with about 20 mesmerized by his continual line of jokes. It was a great time with him. As an aside he had to sit on a pile of pillows due to the wounds he had which he referred to as his magic carpet.”

Russ should have ridden his magic carpet home. Most wounded sent to Japan were. Two from my advisory team went home that way. Indeed, Rick was surprised when Russ got sent back to Vietnam to complete his tour as a platoon leader in the 199th Light Infantry Brigade. “I was surprised he returned to VN. I too thought he had his ticket home.”

When I asked Russ why he was sent back he raised his eyebrows and shoulder in a half shrug as if to say “Why, indeed?”

Could the major general who felt insulted by Russ at the briefing have been so vindictive as to send him back for more infantry despite his leg wounds?

Just the kitchen to go

Repairing the sagging bottom shelves in the existing cabinets and the sagging doors and painting them white inside and out. Then painting the ceiling white and the walls pale blue, applying crown molding and window molding and replacing the pantry door with a six-panel pine painted the white of the cabinets. And finally a new blue laminate countertop and a new white porcelain sink. Whew.

The Palestinian donor machine

“The notion that humanitarian aid to the PA reaches the Palestinian Arab people has no basis in reality.”

Abbas, who has called President Trump a dog and a son of a dog, is a thief. He steals the aid for himself and his supporters. The result is a rich Palestinian elite, thanks to the unwitting generosity of European and American taxpayers, while the Palestinian people go begging.

Rule 5: Maria Gimena

Chief Justice Impeachment

“I had forgotten that [Supreme Court Chief Justice John] Roberts is responsible for supervising the FISA Court. That the Court was allowed to approve the Page warrants is firm grounds for impeachment. It won’t happen, but it should. God forbid a judge ever be held accountable for something.” commenter JCKluge

Judges have been removed, but not chief judges.

UPDATE:  Wait up, let’s all thank Chief Cuck for outing the fake whistleblow (in the CIA) who started the #Shampeachment: Eric Ciamarella. Even if the cuck rigged the trial against the president by doing so, not allowing him to face his accuser.
