Another Month of Madness!

~ The war with Iran is currently on pause and at a stalemate as no one can agree on anything it seems. Still no release of the remainder of the Epstein files. Legal action has so far prevented the start of construction on the ballroom, but the underground bunker is full speed ahead. Over the weekend, the White House Correspendents Association held their annual gala and for the first time Trump was in attendance. No comedian as MC - a "mentalist" instead. Before things got rolling, but after most were seated, a lone wolf charged down from upper floors and tried to gain access to the room where everyone was gathered. He did not make it to that floor and was subdued and is alive. Never came close to the President but he and his toadies are all calling it another assasination attempt. Attacker had published a manifesto without specific names but generalized description of those he felt should suffer. ALl the important people were hustled off stage and whisked away to safety. Trump held a news conference at 10:30 and lied through his teeth. All in his orbit are blaming the Dems and their inflamatory rhetoric - taking no responsibility for any of this. And yesterday the Justice Department indicted former FBI Director Comey (AGAIN!), this time claiming the dangerous post he made last year with seashells on the beach "86/47" was the cause of the attack. (no, Donald - YOU are the cause - you and your fat mouth that you can't seem to keep closed.) Oh, and the King and Queen of England are visiting DC and Charles absolutely shredded Trump in his address to Congress yesterday and again last night at the state dinner. ~ A bright note: Ukraine seems to be making some advances in the war with Russia. And no thanks to Trump. Good for them! ~ Working through my list of projects for the house this spring. It's a long, long list. It will get done but I need a break for some quilting now that the new pfaff is back in house. I sold my canopy to one of Connie's friends, so that's one lass thing to stumble over in the garage. I need to photograph and list some of the other stuff soon. Getting to be show season. ~ Derby weekend coming up. No clear emotional favorite and that's okay. 20 years ago it was all Barbaro! Sigh.
