Surveys show that Trump is popular with most women in USA, regardless of his reported behaviour and other activities. He must have the personality and power plus wealth that women yearn for in a man.

In the music news, Eagles band co-founder Don Henley was in court this week over a case where he clams handwritten notes used to craft songs from the 1976 album HOTEL CALIFORNIA had been stolen and sold at auctions. Three collectibles dealers Glenn Horowitz, Craig Inciardi and Edward Kosinski are on trial in this case.

Valued at more than $1 million, the defendants knew the materials were stolen, manufactured false provenance, lied to auction houses, potential buyers and law enforcement about the origin of the manuscripts.

This all started with author Ed Sanders, who had been hired to write a biography of the Eagles, were he allegedly had stolen them in the late 1970's and is said to have sold the manuscripts to Horowitz in 2005, who then sold them to Inciardi and Kosinski.
In this case, Sanders has not been charged with a crime. However, the means by which Sanders got the notes is essentially the question at the center of the case.

Henley testified that he gave Sanders access to his handwritten notes, but he never gave the writer permanent possession.

The attorney who is representing Kosinki, stated the defense rightfully owned the material and therefore were free to sell the papers. He claimed that Henley voluntarily provided the lyrics to Sanders.

The defendants opted to forgo a jury trial and the trial is expected to last for several weeks. The verdict will ultimately be decided by the judge. Obviously a lot at stake.



Hotel California is listed as the third-best-selling album of all time, certified platinum 26 times by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) having sold more than 32 million units worldwide.

“The confused migrant crowd was then directed to a welcome station to receive their smartphones, visa gift cards, and mail-in ballots.

BROWNSVILLE, TX — Amid record-breaking illegal immigration at the southern border, President Biden arrived in Brownsville Texas to address his voters, who had crossed into the United States the previous night.

"Welcome, voters, make yourselves at home!" said Biden to a group of military-aged male Chinese nationals and a crowd of convicted felons from a maximum security Venezuelan prison. "My nurse Jill always says you people are unique breakfast tacos and I couldn't have said it better. We're excited for you to live here. You have plenty of great states to choose from, like Ohio, Pennsylvania, or any other crucial battleground states. I was... I... I..."

"... well, anyway."”

You can’t make this stff up.

On 30th October 1938, a radio broadcast in USA of the story, " War of the Worlds" stated that an alien invasion by Martians was currently in progress. Many people missed the opening statement that the story was fictional. Panic ensued. The police and fire services received many calls from the public.
What would you do if the above situation was real?
Would you stay put? Say your prayers? Pack your bags and head for the hills?
Maybe soon this event could become a reality. We may encounter extra terrestrials. After all, many ancient civilisations state in their writings that their gods who once visited them will return.
Remember the film, " Close Encounters of the Third kind, " This was a Stephen Spielberg production based on an alleged true story.

Crooked lying Donald Trump is using his social media (propaganda outlet) to state more falsehoods about justice department rules that don't exist, claiming that “The Very Strict Rules and Regulations of the Department of Injustice STATE CLEARLY that you can’t prosecute a Political Opponent, or anyone, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS/HER CAMPAIGN.”
Oh, I get it. While it's not a rule of the (DOJ) Department of Justice, in Trump's world those rules exist in the (DOI) Department of Injustice.



This isn't political, it's humor.

According to recent research, UPF products are responsible for 32 harmful effects to health.
Cancer, heart disease, adverse mental health, early death.
Examples of these foods are, sugary cereals, protein bars, fizzy drinks, ready meals, fast food, packaged baked goods.
UPF products tend to contain, colours, emulsifiers, flavours, high amounts of sugar, saturated fats, salt and preservatives.
Some of us, no doubt, already realise this and try to avoid such products, but many people never look at ingredients and just stick their purchases in a shopping trolley.
Perhaps governments should get involved and issue guidelines to food manufacturers to improve the quality of their products, particularly when young children are exposed to poor quality food content.
Parents have a responsibility for the health of their kids.

In a democracy, those who have greater wealth are able to achieve more or less what they desire. If they wish to become a president or prime minister, they can afford to hire the best people to promote their cause. If they have committed any civil or criminal acts, they can usually pay off those who have suffered or been inconvenienced. They have the best lawyers. In the USA, you would think that such a large and powerful country would have the talent available to provide the best leadership. The talent is no doubt there, but without the wealth, achievement to a high status is difficult or impossible.
The best USA can offer is Donald Trump and Joe Biden. The former will no doubt become president again. The alternative choice is someone who appears to have difficulty with his faculties. Forgetful, sometimes looks in a trans like state, unsteady on his feet.
Should the electoral system change and end the wealthy only candidates? Replace with a public funded arrangement with the best qualified individuals chosen?
In an autocracy, if you have wealth and desire power, and if you finance the right people, eg. Police, military, and gather round you a group who like the idea of power themselves, and the freedom to use it, even if it means the use of intimidation and violence to assist them. Elections are never needed or are rigged to achieve the desired result. Examples of this can be found in China, North Korea, Russia and Iran.
Difficult to ever change this form of power, unless the people revolt and risk their lives in the process.
Democracy takes bravery.

Would it be better if people were not categorised by their religion? The news always talks about the various religious communities in a country and their reaction to events. Sometimes violent protests are used if there is a difference between a countries laws and the beliefs of a group. In a democracy, laws are established by representatives of the people and must be obeyed, otherwise there are penalties. The fact that a particular religious group disagrees should not affect the application of the law. Sometimes police ( UK particularly ), are worried that they may offend a community and consequently appear reluctant to apply the law for fear of reprisals. Residents of a country should abide by the rules and regulations regardless of any conflict with their religious beliefs. Individuals who break the law may feel that they can hide behind an organisation who they feel will offer them protection and justification in the unlawful manner in which they protest. These situations exist also with, "Just stop oil" and "Climate change" protesters.
Society is at risk of a breakdown if there is failure to prosecute offenders.

If you were born on February 29th your birthday only rolls around once every 4 years.

That must make it difficult when filling out your birth date on some programs that aren't sophisticated enough to allow for leap year.

You look pretty young for only having 6 birthdays...
