Bustling busy (late) Thursday thank-you's, Sir Pookie!

It's Friday morning when you see this I suppose... just didn't want you to think I'd forgotten you. ;D

A thoughtful Thursday theme:

Trump New York trial: Karen McDougal won’t take stand after Stormy Daniels testimony

By Kaelan Deese
May 9, 2024 5:00 pm

A lawyer for President Donald Trump announced Thursday afternoon that prosecutors no longer plan to bring Playboy model Karen McDougal to testify at his New York criminal hush money trial after two days of testimony from porn star Stormy Daniels.

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche said in court that “we have been informed the People no longer intend to call Karen McDougal as a witness,” according to reports from the trial. It is not immediately clear why prosecutors with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office decided not to bring McDougal to the witness stand.

After seeing the numbers the federal government is giving these socialist/communist universities in funding, I say we need legislation that prohibits money going to any university.  A moratorium for five years while the idiots in Congress study how to fund universities into the future where they are NOT sponsoring socialism/communism.

Schools found fostering these mindsets should be banned from receiving any money from the federal government for a ten year period.

These *ssholes are receiving BILLIONS...BILLIONS...BILLIONS!!!!!!!!  Absolute insane spending of taxpayer monies.

Last book:
"Typhoid Mary", by Anthony Bourdain.
Don't waste your time with this one. You can find more about Mary by going to the wikipedia page on her. The author is a cook, and after reading this book, I would never eat anything HE prepared.

Current book:
"The Fifth Horseman", by Billy Roper.
Good story so far, about people in Arkansas after a national collapse/war.
(you WON'T find this one on amazon, try a search on "the colchester collection")

You know what the proper response to physical invasion like this is.

You can't say it, and you won't type it.
But... you know it, in any case.
As do I (and I'll refrain from saying it here).

BUT... until we as both individuals and as a people are willing to take up such a response, the invasion will continue apace.

What is to be done...?

Fishrrman's "College Fix":
(a Fishrrman original)

Close the universities.
Send the students home and tell them to get a real job.
Fire the faculties and administrators and BLACKLIST them from ever working in education again.
Give the campuses away to the homeless and illegals, they'll make better use of them.

Keep ONLY the professional schools (medical, scientific, technical) where the students might actually LEARN something. But give those institutions a "good cleaning out", as well.

Perhaps keep a modicum of private schools that accept NO government funding. Hillsdale is an example.
Forbid "student loans" -- make them pay up in advance, or borrow the money privately.

Have I made myself clear?

On my 4th book in the Brotherhood of War series by W.E.B. Griffin.  I have read everything he has written except this series which has nine books in the series.  What can I say, enjoying the heck out of these books.  Read the first three in little over a week. 

I now have my hands on all nine books, so I will go through them quickly.  The list includes:

The Lieutenants
The Captains
The Majors
The Colonels
The Berets
The Generals
The New Breed
The Aviators
Special Ops

Oh, please. He'll never debate Trump. He's incapable of debating without cue cards or a teleprompter.

Any day where Biden doesn't obviously shit his pants in public is considered a win by the Democrats.

I think they lost again today lol!
