Nothing to see here
I spend a lot of the day traipsing around the 'net making discoveries both great and appalling, but I never would have found Locust Watch on my own. Thanks, Charlie. I think.
Madame Tussaud's has removed Meghan & Harry from its Royal exhibition. This is hilarious, because they are the least waxworks-like of the bunch. The couple's decision to "step back," as it's always phrased, has been attributed to right-wing tabloid columnists and their scarcely-veiled racism, but I watch a lot of British panel shows. For a few years, no half-hour was complete without at least one joke about who Harry's "real'' father was. Because he's red-haired, or "ginger" as they say. That takes two recessive genes, and there hasn't been any ginger royalty since the Tudors. (Of course, the Spencers are related to the red-haired Churchills.) I think Harry just got tired of hearing his mother called a tramp long before he got tired of hearing racist crap about his wife. I hope they like Canada better.
A North American politician with actual credibility, Justin Trudeau, says the Ukrainian airliner was shot down, perhaps inadvertently, by an Iranian missile. Sixty-three of the passengers were Canadian; none was American. It explains the Iranians' refusal to turn the flight recorders over to Boeing so far. That picture sure looks like the nose of a missile.
Git along, little dogie! Sen. Mike Lee of Utah complained about his war briefing: "They had to leave after 75 minutes, while they were in the process of telling us to be good little boys and girls and not debate this in public. I find that absolutely insane." This caused the re-animated corpse of Lou Dobbs to accuse him of doing a "Benedict Arnold impression," so Lee had to crawl to Fox, tail between his legs, and whimper that he is a loyal Trumpanzee. Another one herded back in. Dissent will not be permitted. Many states have decided not to even hold Republican primaries because you don't primary God's Chosen One. Remember what happened to Eric Cantor.
It was left to John Kerry (remember him?) to cut through the noise and summarize the last week: "Within 24 hours, a new general is appointed. And I assure you that new general is as committed to the track General Soleimani was on as he was." But Obama took out Osama bin Laden, and Trump needed his own. Mission accomplished.
Oh no. Oh no. Elizabeth Warren danced at a rally in Philadelphia, and she's not a good dancer. It's over. Same thing happened to Theresa May. Whatever a woman politician does she had better do perfectly, backwards in high heels.
