Lessons In Ethics

Hands up if you're an office pool savant who collected on a bet that media darling Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez would be getting ethics lessons from Don Trump Jr.

The President signed a 6-month exemption to the 1995 Jerusalem Embassy Act. I can't figure out what it does, but this guy typed out the whole exemption on Twitter.

The idea of a European Military didn’t work out too well in W.W. I or 2. But the U.S. was there for you, and always will be. All we ask is that you pay your fair share of NATO. Germany is paying 1% while the U.S. pays 4.3% of a much larger GDP - to protect Europe. Fairness!

The Paris Agreement isn’t working out so well for Paris. Protests and riots all over France. People do not want to pay large sums of money, much to third world countries (that are questionably run), in order to maybe protect the environment. Chanting “We Want Trump!” Love France.

AOC will sooner than later out herself, in the eyes of the left, as batshit crazy and a stain on their progressive campaign. She can't help herself. She has no self-awareness that can keep her yap shut and out of the spotlight. I don't think she will become a sympathy target but rather a blue on blue victim.

Once she starts (perhaps has already) embarrassing Pelosi, she will get a talking to, and you will not hear from her again unless it is to agree with the left's agenda.

henry,

I don't know what to think of that whole Q thing. Some of the people have turned up valuable information, but when they get into dream interpretation and thinking that JFK Jr. is still alive, I think they have pretty much gone off the rails.

I don't ever link it here, and I don't do more than read some of the threads. The whole thing is very strange. I think it is mostly made up of people who want to feel like they are helping.

It does make you wonder why Twitter banned Q anon, though.

A good summing up of the "Remain in the EU, don't Brexit" faction, from Rse's 09:05 link:

What explains this Remainer preference to be a province in an undemocratic Euro-polity? It tells us, first, that they place zero or little value on democracy and national independence — and that’s worth knowing about them. Second, they are living in a dream that their greater power and prosperity is guaranteed by the U.K.’s membership in a European federation simply because it’s bigger. Third, many or most of them have already made a psychological switch from a British allegiance to a new “European” patriotism that justifies their overriding the democratic decision of those who are still their fellow citizens. And, fourth, they haven’t been paying much attention to what is happening in the European Union lately.

Some in the media are distorting my statement that answering the questions was a nightmare. That is because as President he was interrupted so often with critical and more important matters. It illustrates why Mueller should end this now and media should be fair.

Miss Marple,

That video of hundreds of French High School students on their knees with their hands up is not going to go over well in France. In Paris there are memorial plaques around the city of Paris High School kids who fought against the Nazi Occupation of the City, and when they got caught they were publicly executed. They were allowed to write a final letter to their parents and those letters of those brave patriots are what is posted on the walls of the City, and when translated they sound like Nathan Hale's famous last words. I think images of High School students are going to inflame, not quell, the passions of the mob in the street, because it is going to bring the memory of those brave resistors to memory.

[MissMarple2]

daddy,

Having never been to Paris, I didn't know about those memorials and letters. I think you are right.

As a mother and grandmother, I was enraged to see those pictures, and I can imagine how a French parent would feel.

I think Macron will be out by Monday, myself.

I’m not shooting anything inedible in this weather.

I had sort of the opposite problem yesterday. I clipped my first deer ever and it really makes me sad. We were coming down the long straight stretch of road heading toward out house with an open meadow on the right mid afternoon. No fences here. A deer shot out of almost no cover so quickly and so close that she almost hit the car but managed to stay in front. Barely felt anything as I hit the brakes. Never slowed her down, but as I saw her disappear into the heavy thicket on the other side of the road one hind leg was flailing like a stick on a string. Ugh. It’s open season here, but few hunters and mostly private property. Any attempt to track her down and put her out of her misery probably violates several laws. :(

No coyotes. But we do have neighbor pals with a husky that has brought down a healthy deer, much to the panic/chagrin of the owners and the nearby locals. Threats of very high fines were rumored. (Still not sure why that is considered anything but nature taking its course.) BTW, like many places on the mainland, we are ‘blessed’ with an over abundance of the critters.

One Tour is on the Left bank, the other on the Right.

1) Sun 2 2.30pm The Resistance and the Occupation Left Bank Circuit. The story of the resistance fighters (who came from all backgrounds) the prisons, the plight of the Jews and the round ups. Everyday life during the Occupation, many poignant and revealing stories and the heroic acts of ordinary people. Meet at metro Sevres Babylone, exit 3 at junction of rue de Sevres and bvd Raspail, by the garden.

2)Sun 9 2.30pm Paris during the Occupation and Liberation. Hear how the Parisians survived the dark years of the Occupation from 1940-44 on this walk in the area of the Champs Elysées, with stories of daily life, the Gestapo, the Resistance and the Liberation. Meet at metro Tuileries

Both were excellent.
