This Signal scandal is just embarrassing, humiliating and disheartening for members of the intelligence community as they watch their leadership undertake Olympic level verbal gymnastics to explain what should be a right vs wrong issue.

"Living in Bordeaux, I am always in awe of how history is present in daily life. Whether it’s stumbling upon a medieval city wall, Roman ruins, or centuries-old architecture, the city is full of incredible items." savortheharvest.com/six-bordeaux... via @savortheharvest.bsky.social

Who cares about the journalist? He was the most professional member of the group. The scandal is these idiots engaged in secret national security on insecure commercial phone apps - and one member on his personal phone in Moscow.

Pete Hegseth just blew any shred of credibility he had as a military leader. Leaking national security info in a Signal chat — while a journalist watched? That’s criminal negligence. Every service member deserves better. 📎 bit.ly/hegseth-must... #HegsethMustResign #SignalGate

🚨🚨Gross incompetence. The Trump admin accidentally texted a journalist our war plans. This proves what we always knew: Hegseth was never qualified to be SecDef—now his recklessness is putting Troops' lives at risk. This is deadly serious. MORE: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

It’s the perfect storm of terrible ideas, corruption and incompetence.

Lock them up?

Many French Char B1 & B1bis WW2 battle tanks were named after vineyard sites, AOC, and wine villages such as Chablis, Châteauneuf du Pape, Corton, Côtes du Rhone, Fleurie, Pommard, Vougeot. Here, B1bis Chambertin, Pauillac, Pommard, and Chablis. A complete list www.chars-francais.net/index.php/cl...

Oh FFS. The dumbest, most selfish, & bigoted (or some combination thereof) among us “didn’t like Kamala’s policies”, so now every aspect of American life is being negatively impacted by the most vile among us to ever pose as “public servants” while destroying - NOT fixing - every fuqn thing.

In today’s episode, how is NOAA faring with large-scale layoffs? Plus, the impact of freezing billions of dollars for sustainable agriculture and conservation. Listen here 🎧: pod.link/73329284/epi...

Fascinating: 1928 CHAMPAGNE Prescription during prohibition (legal, way to get alcohol). While most prescriptions specified either whiskey - here's a prescription for champagne (32 fl. oz total, one wineglassful - 2 fl oz - every 4 hours). Courtesy Eric Chiappinelli of Champagne Bar CoupesDallas

FURTHER UPDATE: I let Col. Shappert (Ret) know that many people wanted to express their appreciation and thanks to him. He has set up an email for that purpose (he doesn't do social media.) If you want to send your appreciation, he's at B52Dpilot [at] protonmail.com.

A letter from a fine American veteran mourning what ignorant, not-so-fine, morally bankrupt, traitorous , wannabe dictators & dipshits are doing to break this country.

This decline in tourism represents 140,000 US job losses and $4 billion #USBoycott

Every dipshit that voted for magoffs - who have zero clue about anything involving numbers, facts, science, trade, foreign policy, or even how the government actually works - asked for this. Be sure to thank them for making ‘murica so “great.” Leopard: face. Eat. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Il a raison.

I failed to post a #caturday pic of my overlord. He will have his revenge. 🐾 See how fierce he looks. Yes, sooo fierce. #nebelung #cattitude #CaturdayNightFever

An interesting data point worth exploring. 20 bucks a year. That’s it. That’s a couple Dunkin Donuts coffees. Seems like heck of an investment. To save an allied nation. Against a sworn enemy of the U.S….And the American people allegedly have “war fatigue?” Really? Weak sauce.

Sometimes a girl just needs a perfect evening out with charming hubby, friends, a restaurant with impeccable #wine & food service, decent stemware, a lovely table tucked away in a cozy corner, &, yes, fabulous food. 🍷 #grateful #saturdate

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to women around the world who believe in equality & celebrate the achievement of women. (Enablers of governments full of fascist, backward-ass misogynistic pigs, felons, & sexual assaulters excluded.) #TakeBackYourPower www.internationalwomensday.com/History

Only responsible adults invited. Meanwhile, in the US, the reality TV show which appears to be a love child of “Jackass” & “Honey Boo Boo” featuring a D-list of criminals, creeps, lunatics, & perverts continues to be an international embarrassment & the dangerous dismantling of America.

The pinko commie bastards that have infested our government ARE the axis of evil. Absolutely shameful. Shame on every veteran who voted for these vile, ignorant, pusillanimous posers as you’ve brought about America’s downfall.

Exploring the wine & region of Lake Neusiedl. There's a little bit of Austrian wine history complete with Romans, crazy monarchs, invaders, & a little cultural side trip to this UNESCO Heritage site. #wine #wineeducation #winepodcast #austrianwine glassinsession.libsyn.com/wine-from-la...

Most of the 20th century, Algeria was the world's largest wine exporter. Most Algerian wine was shipped to Sète (formerly "Cette"), the main wine port in Languedoc. Here an old postcard from 1921.

My old Gen X, Cold War era, Recovering Republican brain reflex: «Those pinko commie bastards» America continues to backslide at the hands of traitors, criminals, creeps, & kooks.

It’s going to be a long 4 years of experts & people who actually KNOW things sounding alarms & otherwise intelligent human beings mumbling « no sh*t ».
