  2. Walt – Having met you and your wife, I think you are blessed to have each other.

    I used to think it was terrible for anybody to have avoided military service during the Vietnam War. With time, I try to not judge. I tried to join the military 5 times but the vicious anti-diabetic policy prevented it.

    “But according to Jason and Bitter, I HAVE served admirably in the army of Alexander the Great, Roman army, the Egyptian army, was a veteran of the American Revolution, the War of 1812, the Civil War, etc. etc. etc.”

    Walt is selling himself short. He was also decorated by Atila the Hun, Genghis Khan, and Richard the LionHeart.

  13. Good Julien Epstein piece in the NY Post. He’s one of the few remaining democrats that is not batshit crazy –

    “Obstructionism. Cultural extremism to the point of self-contradiction. Voters used to know Democrats as a party that “builds bridges” to our future economic challenges.

    But now voters know Democrats as a party that defends an ever-growing socialist welfare state headed for bankruptcy within the decade, extreme cultural leftism, Nazi terror groups abroad, failed educational institutions at home, and angry-mob street protests.”

    I put in a bet on the Brazilian club Fluminense just because the odds are so good (20 to 1) to win the Cllub World Cup.

    In the Gold Cup final Mexico is a very slight favorite. They usually have a stronger team than the US but the US has dominated since 2020.

    Since 2020 Mexico 5–12 United States

  17. CNN’s narrative about the Texas floods is to point fingers at the ‘cuts’ done already to NOAA by the Trump Administration that could have warned people of this disaster. They point to the fact that in February 880 employees were terminated that “could jeopardize public safety by affecting the accuracy and timeliness of weather forecasts, particular for severe weather events like hurricanes and tornadoes”.

    I think Trump has made NATO a lot weaker since he has been President.

    I know that certainly is NOT painful to Chicon.

    1. Trump has consistently undermined NATO and its mission by pretending the big issue is who pays what. By doing that he has weakened its influence and has sown disunity in the alliance, and he has minimized the importance of the alliance to the US by pretending it is only important to Europe
    2. In my view this is much more important and consequential than a future increase in spending by some countries, which will probably take years to implement.
    3. And if the net effect is that the US spends less but the Europeans spend more that might satisfy the isolationist “peace in our time” idiots, but it won’t do much for the alliance.

    So if the question is whether NATO is stronger or weaker put me on the side of weaker

    Ask me again when the US starts INCREASING its NATO contributions.

    If I could find a way to show all the alerts I received for potential flash floods on my phone, and both my sons phone…even my mom called me to ask if she was going to be ok.

    No one in their right mind could predict that the river would rise that fast, and that high at midnight when all the campers were asleep. AND, the cabins are a good walk away from the river. We had to walk across a giant field, the mess hall area, basketball court and pickleball courts to get to the banks of the river. This is just irresponsible, horrible, hate baiting tripe.

    BTW one of my best friends just happen to grab her daughter on Thursday morning from the Camp. I didn’t even know she was still there, I thought she got out last week. She’s been sending her daughters there for 13 years.

Same thing in the previous matches. And he kept playing the striker Agyemang even though it is clear he is not National team worthy. He is big but has limited soccer skill and poor balance.
