Thought for the Day

Two contrasting aspects of the US Constitution that beg the question: what does the Constitution say, and what does it mean, and are the always the same? It appears to be the case that being 'open to interpretation' means contrary things, but surely you know what the intention was behind the text?

This one suggests there are American who think the rot started with the 14th Amendment, reached a low in the 1960s- but thinks it is being true to the Constitution

Why do right-wing populist types have such a thing for weird hair styles?

So, Piers Morgan, the Champion of THE TRUTH, has named the Royals who are alleged to have made racist comments about 'Baby Archie', emphasising, of course, that he does not think the author(s) of this smear are telling THE TRUTH.

Could this be Piers Morgan elevating a certain Piers Morgan onto the pedestal of Righteous Indignation, that anyone dare smear the Royal Family of being Racist?

Could this dastardly, anti-British, anti-Royal campaign be led by an American who never understood the Monarchy, who did not get what she wanted, who refused to go on a date with, er, Pier Morgan?

Judge for yourself, as the Prince of Lightness shines a light on the forbidden names, having told you in advance they are innocent without the evidence.

Maybe he will make the trip to Florida, kiss the ring of DJT (and he may have lots of experience kissing rings), and be named VP nominee when the time comes, though right now the only way Trump can run is an an independent, given Haley's Comet is blazing, as De Santis sinks into the Atlantic.

Maybe Mr Johnson will propose re-naming the institution in Ohio 'Trump University' to honour his idol? I can see JD Vance jumping for joy at the news. Scary.

Indeed it is very scary.

The orange menace and sore loser Donald Trump was at it again,making false claims that Joe Biden destroys democracy,when in reality that is exactly what Donald Trump did when he and his enablers in congress and the senate tried to overturn the 2020 Election,and inciting an insurrection in attempt to stay in power all because he lost. When somebody shows you who they are believe them, because he's telling people what he is going to do if he wins a second term. And people shouldn't only be worried about what will happen if win the 2024 election,they should also be worried about what will happen if he loses again,and we saw how he reacted the last time.
