It's never quiet in Trump world. I believe we are up to 3 news stories daily.
Hopefully, we're past the lie about Trump having the power to declassify documents at will. Right?

Let's go with that story anyway and say he declassified documents in his possession at Mar-a-Lago and neglected to over stamp the classified stamp at the top of them. Plausible?

Previous excuses included: I don't have any, I would have returned them if you had asked, The FBI planted them, They're mine, I declassified all of them.

The one detail he forgot is the possession part. It's illegal ( ex-president or not) to have taken them in the first place. Coming up with an excuse of 'I was planning to send them over' reminds me of the guy who was stopped by the police driving around with a kilo of pot in his car. Just as the police are about to arrest him, he blurts out "But officer, I found this pot on the side of the road and was headed to police headquarters to turn it in!"
Get my point?

What else happened? Oh yeah, last week, Donald revealed the FBI spent hours searching through Melania's lingerie. She felt so violated that she could never wear them again (regardless of laundering) and that she had to buy all new underwear.
Is that a tax write-off for the latest fall fashions?

Trump's back on the grifter rally circuit in Pennsylvania and declares war on Biden being an enemy of the state. More on that later...

This week, it's the FBI searching Barron's room. Quoted from one news source he said:
"And even did a deep and ugly search of the room of my 16-year-old son — leaving everything they touched in far different condition than it was when they started. Can you believe it?"

If you ask me... no. That is unless it was specified in the search warrant and I didn't see it listed when I scanned the warrant. Why search the room of a 16-year old kid?
Was he scanning documents for dad. Hmmm...

This weekend I came in contact with a real live Trumpster and a few of my friends asked do you really think he won the election? His reply started with Hunter Biden's laptop. I got the feeling he may be one of CS's bloggers, but I was afraid to ask!
It must have been a close encounter with a Trump Borg having him repeat the same phrases I see here.

We don't get many hurricanes on the West coast of Florida. Nearly a year ago, Ian cut North of the Fort Myers area with extreme flooding and loss of life. The outer bands of winds were so extreme it spawned tornadoes on the East coast 200 miles away that took the roofs off several of the houses and condos around me.

11 months later, waiting for reconstruction, I see they put new trusses on some of the 2nd story condos that were covered with tarps all this time. Those units were severely damaged and unoccupied all this time.
To those who haven't experienced the force of a hurricane and seen the devastation, words and photos cannot fully describe.

Sunday morning, I met with friends and one mentioned a tropical storm in the Yucatan peninsula with a forecast to become a powerful hurricane headed for the West coast of Florida.

Idalia is born...

Late Sunday night, Idalia was a Tropical storm and will strengthen Monday morning while crossing the Western top of Cuba, expected to be a hurricane mid-Monday making a slight curve to the East and hit Florida about 100 miles North of Tampa.

The image below is linked to the National Hurricane Center and usually updates every 4 hours.

Well here it is. A moment in history. How will all this turn out? Very badly for the Democrats in my opinion. But we shall see. Be careful what you wish for. Be careful for the precedents you set. For be careful they may come back to hit you in the áss.


"I am your retribution" - Donald Trump

It looks like I'll be getting new neighbors. Mar-a-Lago Club located at 1100 South Ocean Boulevard, Palm Beach, Florida has changed ownership. That is, depending on who you talk to. The real estate website Zillow said the property sold for $422 million but later stated it was a listing mistake. TV10 claimed the same story, but the website radaronline has a different story. They say on August 4, Trump sold the resort to a corporation named Mar-a-Lago, Inc. and it's registered agent is Donald Trump Jr.
Somewhere along the way, Mar-a-Lago wasn't in the listing. Instead, it was listed by it's address, 1100 South Ocean Boulevard.
Is there any way this transaction was handled fraudulently?
I have no idea, but I believe attorneys are 'hot on the trail' just to investigate this considering the time line to the Georgia indictment and Trump's surrender at the Fulton County jail.

Other than a name change on the title/deed, I imagine it's business a usual, less the property manager and head of computer security... but you already knew that!

Hopefully, they cleared all those boxes that were kept in the pool storage, toilet, banquet stage and possibly Barron's bedroom.

Hopefully, everyone reading this knows that dogs have a great range of hearing. They can hear high-pitched sounds way above the range for Humans. Because of this, dog trainers often use specialized whistles for training where they can teach a dog to respond to commands by the sound of a dog whistle.
Lately, the term 'Dog Whistle' has been used in a political sense. When used, certain groups of people hearing a key word or phrases will have meaning to someone who hasn't been 'trained' to respond.
It's almost like AMAZON ALEXA that sleeps until it hears it's name.
Another example would be Trump supporters waking up when they hear: Make America Great Again.
I'm reading about it and have seen a few YouTube videos reference phrases, I'm not 'in-tune' with the political dog whistle phrases. However, I fear not, someone will enlighten me about this phenomena.

With the discovery of oil in the Orange Basin off the Namibian coast, will most probably mean the 'homing in' of countless vultures/ criminal elements from around the globe.

I lived in Namibia for 10 years, it's a wonderful clean and orderly country.

Wonder what the future holds.

A few days ago, Donald J. Trump posted on his social media site he had information to exonerate himself from the current legal matters that entangle him. On the advice of his lawyers (probably because it would open a quagmire that he could fall into) he restated the claim and said that it would wait for his day in court.

This morning in the news, Rudolph William Louis Giuliani aka Rudy Giuliani, who is facing election fraud charges in the 2020 election, claimed he has 'scientific proof' that will exonerate him. Rudy was at Mar-a-Lago last week asking (more like begging) the former president for money to pay his legal fees. I read, to raise money, he's got his apartment up for sale and there's a chance he could file for bankruptcy.

I dislike gambling, but I'd wager both claims of self-exoneration are just a case of "Open foot, insert mouth."
Yes, I know what I said...

A day or two ago Hilary was a hurricane and weakened to a tropical storm as it crossed Baja and Southern California. Now the winds are less than 50 miles per hour but moving North at 23 miles per hour.
Heavy rains are expected and a flood watch in effect from Southern California, Nevada and Arizona, including parts of Oregon and Idaho.

Hilary is the first storm of its kind to hit the region since Nora in 1997.

Over the years, I've seen videos of waves pounding the shoreline where beach erosion and houses on stilts often collapse into the water. I'm sure this will happen again.

In response to Russia's threat to destroy civilian vessels carrying grain from Odessa and other parts of Ukraine, Ukraine has issued it's own Black Sea warning.
Any vessel entering the Black Sea intending trade with Russia may find itself at risk of being sunk, either by Russian mines or Ukrainian drones.

Yesterday, a Russian owed oil tanker attempting to pass under the Kerch Bridge received a (filmed) drone strike in the engine compartment area. The tanker was empty and en route to pick up a shipment of oil which will now not be sold. Further strikes on other shipping is probable.

Watch the Russian oil tanker take a hit.

The rumor is Ukraine has crossed the Dniepre River in force, and pierced the first Russian line in the vicinity of Kozachi Laheri and is already about 800 meters past that. A public satellite fly by of the area is still several hours away. There is concern Ukraine may also have gotten some vehicles across the river (somehow). The location of the incursion will provide opportunity for Ukraine to sever the E58 route. Previously Russian VDV (airborne (what remains of them) troops) had manned the line, but they were pulled out earlier this week and sent to fighting to the North and were supposedly replaced by regular infantry. As stated, this is still a not confirmed rumor on Russian Social Media not yet publicly confirmed by Ukraine.
