Just letting you know I’ll be away from my computer until Sunday. Spending some time with my children and grandsons. Please feel free to leave comments about whatever is going on.

I'm glad to see you posting more frequently; I'm sure you can use a break, especially for grandkids.

"Democrats suspect Netanyahu attempting to tilt Trump-Harris race"
They suspect? Wow really? No shit Sherlock, "Democrats" a little slow on the uptake don't you think. Maybe they should give Biden a clue!
While Bibi is doing more than pray for a Trump victory. I'm mildly surprised that gas prices have not grown. There's still time for it but the oil companies seem to be sitting this election out.
For once the big threat to this country is not Milton Freedman the economist but Milton the hurricane. If Milton lives up to its name Florida is in for a huge problem. Don't get me started on the devastation Freedman has wrought, let's just say he ranks high on the most harm scale. Now this hurricane with the menacing name is poised to be the two punch in a one-two combination. It will be a lower blow to Florida if projected paths hold. It has the same gulf hot water energy as Helene had and is growing.
With Helene we entered the era of climate chaos. Climate change or global warming just won't do as an accurate two-word combination anymore for those who look forward with undistorted vision and understanding I hear. If FEMA and Dolly Parton are all in on Helene, who is in reserve for Milton? When Helene gets ratings at above the one in a thousand-year probability scale all by itself you are now in the territory of Douglas Adams and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I am hoping all are familiar with the author's super improbability drive because Adams's fictional comedic creation maybe be becoming a needed concept for understanding the near future. Climate chaos.
Who else is in FL watching the forecast and saying, "Oh, crap!"

For some spiritual satisfaction / justice served, I give you Judge sentences defiant Tina Peters to 9 years. Peters was the MAGA election official in Colorado. The judge gets down to business around 7:30 after some preliminaries.
<blockquote>…I'm convinced you would do it all over again, if you could. You're as defiant a defendant as this court has ever seen….</blockquote>
More, please.

Bonhoeffer called them stupids. They didn't arrive at their Trump worship through hardship (well, a few of the really dumb ones who think idiot/dimentia/psychopath/lyingbagoshit Trump would do better for them than Harris, probably did). They arrive with their tribe.
As in, "Hey, where's everybody going?" "We're all going to a MAGA rally!" And then the feelings of comradery, love/hate, strength in numbers… becomes all the logic they need. When they're too far gone down the emotional rabbit hole, using logic with them only makes them more defiant. Frank Shaeffer takes it one further and calls them "insane". Brains miswired.
Be nice if the MAGA nutjobs likely to threaten that judge were dealt with as well. I'd offer committing them to a mental hospital, but that sounds kinda authoritarian. Having a parole officer well-trained in cult deprogramming?

I'm generally not one to condone violence, but sometimes you just gotta smile; https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-merchandise-vendors-brawl-saginaw-fight_n_67000881e4b085d2029702bb
