Philosophy, politics, entertainment. Art, music, poetry, science. Macrocosm, microcosm.
What don't we owe to the government and people of Mexico? Upon whom we have predated for the last couple of centuries.

And for no better reason than to make things difficult for his successor? No doubt he thinks he has nothing to lose. Fulminating aphasics like angry ol' Joe Biden, with what's left of their brains, often think this.

Unless it were the visible geriatric decay of Joe Biden. Jeez, guys--Put him back in his box, and spare us any more televised "tableaux vivants." ¿Do they think that we can't see that the Biden of recent televised appearances is a more or less skillfully animated zombie corpse...¿that the only remaining human thing left in it is a zombielike slowburning irascence...anger that makes him shout....Yeck.

The advantages, to them, of a dead Republican presidential candidate, must have seemed irresistible--if even Trump had been but seriously wounded- -They could maybe, with a straight face, have run Kamala Harris. But c'mon. Still. I'd like to know, what do you make a Lonely Boy like Thomas Matthew Crooks ingest, and what do you tell him beforehand, to make him be willing to be murdered (immediately) himself, if it were but to murder Trump? With all the treasonous and incompetent help of the evidently entirely suborned Secret Service, still, what motivated him?

Because, for several reasons, that's what it is. And then (one of those great historical moments that it'd be impossible to foresee, or even to realize we'd lost hope for): the deputizing of J.D. Vance as his running-mate and likely presidential successor in 2028. Probity. Decency. Competence. Abolish the CIA? Rescind the Espionage Act of 1917? We'll see.

I burn hot. I tend to exhaust people in conversation, like Margaret Fuller did Carlyle. Which leaves me (but apparently not Margaret) always wishing I'd shut up sooner. I have quite a few friends and not many enemies, but I'm very proud of the few I do have. There is consensus among my friends about me, which is how I know to write about myself. What my enemies think of me I have no idea. That, of course, could be dangerous. The list of interests and favorites is absurdly partial and half-assed, particularly as to music and books. It's the stupid format of the blog itself, as given, that, of course, I color outside the lines and burst the seams of.
