I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.

歐盟難治內鬼，大業宏謀化灰
腦袋前頭跑，蛆蟲屁眼搗。
若無健身朮，如何行大道？
Politico報道：匈牙利已否決了一項針對烏克蘭的替代融資方案（歐元債券）。
這意味著，如果歐盟無法找到利用凍結的俄羅斯國有資產為向基輔提供的1,650億歐元貸款融資的途徑，那麼歐盟將沒有其他替代方案。
愚蠢的歐盟！此前，偶爾班訪俄，朝見普丁，行叩拜禮，接受任務，配合川普的逼烏投降計劃。回國後公開宣稱：將阻止歐盟的一切援烏計劃！此時他已決意離開歐盟，為其繼續統治匈牙利清道。
歐盟在決定生死存亡的投票前，對此如何不作防範？
下面的行動將更難：暫時凍結匈牙利的歐盟資格。
歐盟大事去矣！
