Bronco’s payoffs

Posted on April 28, 2017 | Comments Off on Bronco’s payoffs

Those $400,000 speech fees for Bronco Bama? Clearly payoffs from the ruling class for his eight years of doing something we’re not likely to discover.

To the tune, so far, of $100,000 a year.

The Big Ask

Posted on April 27, 2017 | Comments Off on The Big Ask

“AP: Can you tell me a little bit about how that came about?

“TRUMP: No, just — you know, I asked the [Egyptian] government to let her out. …[Aya Hijazi, an Egyptian-American charity worker, jailed for three years]…

“TRUMP: You know Obama worked on it for three years, got zippo, zero.”

Trump, the master salesman, asked for the sale. He just asked. He did “the big ask” from The Art of The Deal. He got it.

Our robed rulers strike again

“The judge, William H. Orrick of United States [9th] District Court for the Northern District of California, issued a nationwide preliminary injunction against the administration, directing it to stop trying to cut off aid to sanctuary jurisdictions. But the order does not prevent the federal government from moving forward on designating certain places as “sanctuaries,” nor does it keep the administration from enforcing conditions for doling out federal money if they already exist, as the Justice Department has already begun to do with some law enforcement grants.”

Why not stop funding the 9th Circuit? Let them sue to get their money back. And live off their savings in the meantime.

UPDATE: According to Mollie Hemingway at The Federalist, Orrick was a campaign money bundler for Obama in 2008 and for John Kerry in 2004. Now there’s a surprise.

A recent visitor to our bird feeders at Rancho Roly Poly. I was stunned when I saw it in my binoculars and didn’t have time to grab a camera. This will do.

Yom HaShoah…

Posted on April 24, 2017 | Comments Off on Yom HaShoah…

…began yesterday evening, and continues today until sundown. But any day is a good day to remember the murdered six million.

A remembrance that began in Israel in 1951 to memorialize the 1943 armed uprising of the Warsaw Ghetto, established by the Nazis—proof that not all were “led like sheep to slaughter”—but eventually came to commemorate all.

“At 4:14am this morning, the driveway alarm jangled me out of a deep sleep.  Vela Von and I snapped to and peeped out the window ’cause you just don’t rush out the door helter skelter at that hour if you are smart.”

In which AndyJ of MyOldRV surprises an intruder up to no good.
