I have figured it out. Our government is being run by Stepford wives proving the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Another glorious Escondido sunset (BGWest) to cap a great day out here. Scenes from our deck. Including a perfect start to the end of the day: a glass of @flowerswinery Rose - our favorite. Already planned our April return. @brettma11

Saw Mohammed Rasoulof’s The Seed of the Sacred Fig. Filmed in secret and edited in exile and rushed to Cannes where it won an award and a more than 30 minute ovation. Thriller, Art,Protest it is all and more. The three actresses were amazing performing without hijab risking career and life. Must see

Last night, playing with Cantor Jeff Klepper and Rabbi Dan Freelander - 50 years of Kol B’Seder. In the 70’s I was an occasional member of the original band. I joined Loui Dobin and Steve Samuels to celebrate their Kol B’Seder’s iconic music.

We saw Kenneth Branagh’s King Lear. Aging monarch with dementia. Placated only by vainglorious platitudes and flattery. Unable to hear the truth-advised by fools hoping for power . Should be subtitled: “Ripped from the headlines”. At end lights came up, show was over. But our show is just starting

We had a great evening. First, we went to see A Real Pain, written, directed, and starring Jesse Eisenberg and also starring Kiran Culkin. A truly moving and wonderful film. On the way home we were able to score a table at Michelin’s newest star winner, Sawa. Amazing Lebanese food, drinks, service.
