Found in a free box by the side of the road this summer. I have most of Amy Tan's books from decades past, but this isn't fiction, it's what she calls A Book of Musings. I was spellbound and am now inspired to reread my collection. 30 yrs later, The Joy Luck Club is blowing me away.

Unearthed footage that Fox News refused to air during the election last year shows Trump nervously refusing to commit to releasing the Epstein files.
“I don’t know about Epstein so much as I do the others.”

This is important, to push and understand, that every degree matters.

Looks like insider trading to me.
Not only is it illegal, it has thrown our economy and markets into chaos for days.
And Trump is helping out his buddies along the way.

This isn't how gov't is supposed to work: The acting commissioner of Social Security admitted “I was ticked at the governor of Maine for not being real cordial to the president,” so I ended a program in Maine. www.pressherald.com/2025/03/25/s...
Social Security official ended program for Maine newborns because he was ‘ticked’ at Mills
U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree said the rationale given by Lee Dudek, the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration, is 'infuriating and absurd.'

Ossoff would make a brilliant minority leader.
OSSOFF: Disagreements between the president and VP about US plans and intentions would be of obvious interest to foreign intelligence services, would it not?
RATCLIFFE: Yes
OSSOFF: And they were discussing the timing of sending US aircrews into enemy airspace where they faced an air defense threat
