Trump says he'll release MRI results; he doesn't know what part of his body was scanned
President Donald Trump said Sunday that he would release the results of his MRI test that he received in October. “If you want to have it released, I’ll release it,” the president said during an exchange with reporters as he traveled back to Washington from Florida. The White House has so far declined to detail why Trump had an MRI during his physical last month, or on what part of his body.

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

The WSJ claims that, "The Kremlin pitched the WH on peace through business and Trump and Witkoff are on board."
The plan was convince Trump to view Russia not as a military threat but as a land of bountiful including rare-earth and energy deals.
And hence Trump will sell out Ukraine.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

I had a beloved uncle who loved pies. He based his judgement of new restaurants on the quality of their pies. So, I was shocked when he told me that he only liked two kinds of pie - hot and cold.
My ranking of pies:
1. cherry
2. pecan
3. pumpkin (w/ whip cream, w/o GFTO)
4. apple
5. sweet potato (w/ marshmallow topping, w/o GTFO)
6. lemon meringue
7. key lime
8. cranberry
If the above are unavailable in some tragic circumstance and blueberry is there, I'll eat it but unenthusiastically.

Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
Is her apology sincere? I will let a higher authority decide.

BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Trump's people want a lot of bad things that will make America an authoritarian regime. But they haven't succeeded and it would take a while for them even to end democracy, much less build fascism.
So act as if you live in a democracy - because you do.
The End.

Does anyone else feel like it's almost a full time job to keep up with all of the Substack emails in your inbox?
I subscribed to a newsletter recently because I like the writer's posts, on BlueSky. That somehow resulted in subscriptions to several more that send multiple emails per day.

There is no such thing as pure brass. It is made by mixing copper, zinc and other metals.
Trump: Take a look at this if you want to see detail. Most people do a sign and paint it on the wall. So that's half inch thick bronze. Carved. By a very talented person. And it's brass. It's pure brass.

On one hand, I feel betrayed by the 7 Senate Democrats (and one independent) who caved. On the other hand, I think the GOP would never give into Dem's insurance demands. They would have been happy to keep using the shutdown to make people suffer and blame someone else.
