Will that be their excuse for the Border Incidents? And for everything in the Middle East, and Russia and China? Late breaking. As always:
Blame Trump and the extremists.
Shoot. No. I don’t mean shoot.
Somehow this border thing needs to end with an old fashioned cooking of Texas Q and fixins.
Hook the grills and smokers up to the trailers. Were going to a Christmas 1914 no man’s land party with no end time in it.Many of those fellows an lasses know each other. More can. And pow wows can commence. Talking is always good
With eating. And everything will be well protected. We’re All on the same side. I like parties with high cover.(or in high cover)
Those salad guards at least stopped direct hits by viruses. Unless they came from another direction.
Lloyd Austin was hospitalized for prostate cancer. Both hospitalization and death are unusual. Unless caught in the late stages. Seems anyone with a personnel physician would escape death. Let alone surgery. I know this from personal reasons.
Not trying to defend the raving lunatic, not at all, but hospitalization is pretty much required if they’re going to remove a cancerous prostate…unless you bought the ‘do it at home’ kit socialized medicine would prefer you use.
And yes, prostate cancer is very often not detected until it’s too late or almost too late, it killed my father and damned near killed me except for the surgery and radiation once it came back from a spot they missed.
Men just won’t get a simple blood test and a fast fingering to find it.
My PSA levels started to go up a little bit, from 4 to 6, and I insisted on a biopsy my Dr said was ‘unnecessary’. I refused to leave her office without a referral.
The initial biopsy showed .3mm on one of a dozen 20mm ‘cores’, not unexpectedf for anyone over 30.
I had another PSA done a month later and the levels had gone up quite a bit, from 6 to 10, so again I insisted on another biopsy, this time the specialist agreed and that one showed over 80mm on almost all the cores.
Surgical removal was done a month later…in a hospital…and the path lab said it was completely affected with some extending to the margins.
The PSA started to go up again a year later, from ‘undetectable’ to .4 so I ended up undergoing eight weeks of radiation treatments that seem to have done the job but I’m still waiting on the last PSA results I had done before xmas.
Virtually evey man who lives long enough (and some ‘women’) will end up with it, mine was very aggressive as was the strain that killed my father. My father-in-law was diagnosed 20 years ago and he’s still here without surgery so things can vary widely.
Again, I’m not trying to defend what numbnuts did, but you can’t fault him for getting sick and being treated, just the way he handled it.
I wouldn’t wish the experience on my worst enemy, even sockboy should live free from it, summary execution for treason and other crimes maybe but not that.
I’m glad you survived to tell your story… Maybe some of those reluctant to have the fickle finger of fate to get’er done…

The #1’s in the cabinet aren’t in charge anyway. There are leftover Obama crew members in the (less-visible) #2 spots. The cabinet secretaries are expendable.
Deputy Ministers run the show, Ministers can be removed on a whim or in a Cabinet shuffle whenever the PM thinks it looks good to have one. Deputies ‘Assistant Deputies’ can only be transferred between departments since “a good manager can manage anything”. One of ours came from Fisheries where he’d screwed up so badly a person died from his direct actions, but he was deemed capable of running a department he knew absolutely nothing about and that was so far removed from anything to do with fishing it would have been harder to find one further out. The results were as expected, morale in the toilet, idotic policy changes a two-week rookie wouldn’t make, absurdly ignorant statements, and general infighting on all levels to complicate everyone’s life. Just another day in the Service.
In a way, having civilians provide oversight and control of the military isn’t a really bad idea, it’s just that political hacks are generally appointed purely because they’re political hacks and not because of any wealth of knowledge or experience and end up destroying the institutions they’re given command over due to their ineptness, overconfidence in their ‘innate abilities’ and utter stupidity..
And now? It’s up to legions of the mislabeled to standup for this administration, not the people or the nation? Nah. Pass. We will. Always have. But we need a change of administrations. Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss. Still?
If the surgeons have been whittling on Austin’s bunghole, won’t he have to resign? I thought all of Pedo Joe’s cabinet members are required to be “Perfect Azzoles!”

Austin dead? How can you tell? Three medal makers announced layoffs…
Don’t see it much anymore, but when that Covid picture came out he was widely referred to as ‘Darth Stupid’.

There’s a colossal A-Holes/ colossal risks joke in there somewhere.

What was the difference between him being in his office and available, and laid up in the hospital?
Nothing.
Correct, absolutely nothing since he isn’t running the show anyway, one of the *residents handlers is making ‘defence’ decisions from the shadows.
Doggone but I love me a good pun. Thanks!

Hotrod Lincoln,
President Carter was diagnosed with hemorrhoids during an annual physical. It was cited as proof that he was not a perfect @ssh0le.
