*** US State Dept: US is Spending Billions of Dollars to Attack Iran "at the Request" of Israel ***

"The State Department said in a statement that the US is in conflict with Iran "at the request" of Israel, an acknowledgment of Israel's role in steering the US into the war, which the US has dubbed "Operation AIPAC FURY."

The statement was issued by the State Department's legal adviser, Reed D. Rubinstein, who attempted to provide a legal justification for the illegal and expensive war."

By contrast, during the Vietnam War (1955 to 1975), 63 journalists were killed or went missing.

*** IDF Continues Killing Palestinians in Gaza: 19 Over Past 72 Hours ***

Israeli attacks in Gaza killed at least 19 Palestinians and wounded 43 over the past three days, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, as the IDF continues its constant violations of the US-backed ceasefire.

Perhaps the morbidly obese draft-dodging pedophilic oligarch who pilfered America's wealth and dragged the US into a needless and expensive quagmire in the Middle East on behalf of Israel should be honored more often.

Count Basie and Oscar Peterson make it look and sound so easy.

Effortless.

Thanks for that post.

For years there have been a few Franz Schubert pieces that I've wanted to arrange for piano, guitar, and percussion, but time is always the enemy.

My wife just presented me with three books about JFK and I'm still enjoying Elmer Gantry.

A genuinely frightening novel awaits me afterwards: Pet Sematary.

Stephen King said that he himself couldn't read his own story for one year.

The most interesting thing about being here remains people like you.

Last night I was asked to be the second pianist for Beethoven's Seventh Symphony in A transcripted for four hands, sharing one keyboard.

Perfect, just perfect.

Didn't a MAGA influencer named Clavicular suffer a drug overdose while livestreaming?

That constant swooshing din you hear isn't tinnitus.

It's the sound of America being flushed down the toilet because of Republicans, oligarchs, MAGAts, and MIGAts.

"Look Kodos, our plan to destroy America from within is working perfectly!"

"But Kang, I thought this was Vladimir Putin's plan."

"And so it is Kodos, we all serve him, including Dummkopf Trumpf. Bwa-ha-ha-ha!"

Bravo! Thanks for posting, DBT2

Another forgotten piece of history that was eclipsed.

*** Incompetent Trumpf Junta Mistakenly Flew Australian Flags for Imminent King Charles Visit ***

The diabolical Trumpf junta is denaturalizing American citizens and deporting them for misdemeanors and felonies.

Do the same here.

And this drunk defender of white Christian Amerikkka who destroyed the FBI took his oath of office on the In-Da-Gadda-Da-Vida.

Play track!

As I wrote in a separate thread, after Dummkopf Trumpf is gone on 20 Jan 2029, how can the next non-Republican POTUS right all of the wrongs and fix all the damage he is doing?

Where would he/she start?

Truth Social made $3.7 million in revenue last year.
Truth Social had a net operating loss of $712 million last year.

Good shot. I forgot that tune.

Many talented athletes, musicians, boxers, become eclipsed by the greats and their works become forgotten and less appreciated.

But they were good too.

Andy Roddick in tennis. He won only one Grand Slam.

The great boxers in the 1960s that Muhammad Ali beat.

The Zombies, Yardbirds, Kinks etc against the Beatles, the Who, and the Rolling Stones.

Great movies were also eclipsed by even greater ones and too many to name now.

Fine, thanks Clownshack.

My buddy's cooking for us tonight, so we'll play Spades and listen to Schubert afterwards.

White wine never hurts and I enjoy the whiffs of his medicinal "herbs."

The words of California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) at the Munich Security Conference earlier this year ring so hollowly when he beseeched our allies not to give up on the US: "Trumpf is temporary-- he's gone in three years."

But ICE, SCOTUS, Republican Senators, AIPAC, oligarchs, Trumpf's name on currency, streets, and an airport, and the TCF will still be here on 21 Jan 2029.

And who will the next non-Republican Party administration fill his/her new cabinet with?

The same re-treads and dinosaurs who brought us Weimar Republic 2.0-- with a much depleted treasury to work with to boot, thanks to the BBB.

Unless hardcore ethical progressives win each election in 2026, 2027, and 2028, we'll still be in the same boat-- just a new Skipper running the SS Minnow.

"Gilligan!"
