Happy Garbage Day (at least in our area), GN!

Need to catch up on yesterday’s threads -- you boys were chatty and stayed up late.

I’m not thrilled with some of Trump’s picks yesterday including Hegseth and Noem. It will be interesting if, altho not unexpected, that those that speak out against some of his picks are immediately denounced as insufficiently MAGA and sent to the cornfield.

Just a thought since Newsom wants to lead the resistance against Trump. Cannabis is still illegal under federal law, but generates billions in tax revenues for CA. As a negotiating point, Trump could float the idea of seizing those businesses and making arrests if Newsom refuses to work with immigration efforts.
That could be the stick -- the carrot could be to get cannabis reclassified/made legal at the federal level.

This recently happened to a friend of mine as well.

Oh yeah, also… I just discovered that I was taking too much BP medicine. Kinda hard to think. or have energy, when your Blood Pressure is zero. So…. That’s been a revelation, which… as usual… I discovered accidentally. Long story. But Funny.

He was getting dizzy and light-headed after minor exertions. Finally went in to see his doctor who reduced his meds considerably and he’s been doing fine now.

Happy Hump Day, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven!

It was good to see dv8 drop by last night.

Sven -- it will be interesting to see how Trump 2.0 plays out. How much did he learn from the first time?

I agree. I doubt it will be smooth sailing. But… At the very least, I got what I wanted for my birthday: Namely the Grover Cleveland moment! Also watching all the meltdowns has been fun.

I do hope that when Trump met with Brandon today that he made some comments as to how shameful it was that he was pushed out and that he may not have won against him.
