One of the few downsides about living on the island of Crete is that we rarely get the low temperatures you need to turn deciduous leaves red/orange/yellow. I do miss beech forests in autumn.
One of the upsides, however, is being able to have coffee in my jammies in the morning sunshine in December.

Hey, wasn't 1965 in the 'Golden Age' of the US economy? Hmmm.... I wonder why that was...
In the 1960s, around 33% of American workers were union members, while in the 2020s, this number has fallen to about 10%

Amy Dru Stanley and Craig Becker: The masking of ICE agents is indefensible The courts must act to declare masked arrests unconstitutional, as unreasonable seizures barred by the Fourth Amendment.

Commentary: Surely a judge who sentences convicted criminals to prison is as much at risk as ICE agents, yet the notion is absurd that judges should be anonymous or allowed to mask their faces in the courtroom.

Sorry, but no, he's not. Putin has kompromat on him which means that every time Trump makes a favourable statement which seems to be supporting Ukraine, Putin jerks his chain and he retracts. Just look at the history of the Trump/Putin 'negotiations' since January.

U.S. to Repatriate Survivors of Its Strike on Suspected Drug Vessel

Trump II's justification for these strikes has been that these are Venezuelan terrorists engaged in warfare against the US who are so dangerous they must be summarily killed.

The two survivors are Ecuadorian and Colombian, and they're so harmless they'll be sent back home.

Criminal rogue regime.

Mike Johnson is trying to pull β€œa Mitch McConnell refusing Garland a hearing,” but it’s not working because (a) Grijalva is legally entitled to be sworn in, whereas Garland was not entitled to a hearing, and (b) everyone knows the Epstein Files is the reason he’s refusing to do a pro forma session.

Santos was a lifelong thief, a pathological liar and a con-man. It wasn't just insider trading or hawking overpriced merch; he actually engaged in identity theft and stole money from gullible victims.
The type of criminal dear to the Supreme Leader's heart
Pardons of political accomplices is ABUSE.

🚨 Driving drunk with your kids in the car and thinking that is okay because you are an ICE agent answers all the unasked questions.

The fact that we have had to endure decades of this Supreme Court with its lies and corruption is shocking. Roberts is a coward. Alito and Thomas are partisan and corrupt. They should not be allowed to make law for anyone.

If the Maccabi fans do what they did in Holland, Starmer will have thrown away the last shreds of his reputation on a whim. So be it.
