Blue Sky cleanse: got the herb garden & the sunken annuals garden planted (4 trips to the nursery). Repaired the massive hosta/fern bed that the dog has been relentlessly digging to pursue chipmunks (onion ends, garlic, and coffee grounds help deter both). Major perennial beds work starts tomorrow

www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/o.... It’s important to remember that Bowman (now named Vance) was comfortably cocooned in Baghdad’s Green Zone, with every pleasure and zero risk, working as a military JOURNALIST during the Iraq War. He never got near that war’s horrors.

www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u.... Well why isn’t the NYT reporting on obvious the use by Don Jr and Trump himself. But, the Times also refuses to report on that of Ronny Jackson or Matt Gaetz

NPR neglected to include that Kerik used the apartment donated as a place for 9/11 emergency workers to rest and clean up as his nest for conducting adulterous trysts. He was filth.

www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-l... Attacking Leonard Leo (bff of Harlan Crow) and the Federalist Society is cutting his own throat. They are the owners of much of Congress as well as the judicial branch. This will be interesting.

For those not familiar, here's the opening paragraph in the Wikipedia entry for the term "remigration," a term which popped up in Europe over a decade ago and until very recently has not been part of the U.S. political discourse. It is NOT a neutral term. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigra...

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.
