As Trump distracts himself with flagpoles and golf, foreign leaders, financial markets, and a shrinking circle of sycophants brace for the unraveling he no longer understands.
Of all the Substack writers I support, you and Heather C. Richardson manage to lay it all out in truth, fact and stark reality better than anyone else. Although your posts are terrifying for all of that, they are so necessary for everyone in the world to read. Thank you.
Mary refrained from making a joke about trump's small hands and installing flagpoles, so I will add it here. How old must one be to understand the Liberace reference? Mike Lee, for a few minutes, moved the guy with the long ties out of the way for worst man of the moment. Charles P. Pierce had me LOL this morning, not that easy to do, when he said:
I think the class will agree, "Christ, what a dick."
Back when TARP was enacted i said if that amount of money was divided up between every registered voter in America the financial crisis would have ended immediately. The trickle down effect would have been enormous. But no, we got fucked in the ass with a sandpaper condom and the big banks made out like bandits. That's why I got to file bankruptcy and start over at 50 after a lifetime of working blue collar jobs and building and flipping houses after work.
That’s a wrap! Have a great weekend folks. I’ve trouble shot a dead electrical outlet, tackled a mispayment, deleted that account and hopefully set up the correct one, and finally resorted back to local office cause I couldn’t understand the heavy foreign accent doing her best, I’m sure.Bless y’all . Have a fine fun weekend. Remember to check on the vulnerable in coming heat wave, please.l

Ok! I have been reading your free stuff, decided it was time to acknowledge you with a sub. Worthy! Thoughtful, playful, informed. Thank you Mary!
Wow...you nailed it with this one. One of the best pieces I've ever read.
Thank you. You are always truth telling, humorous, gallows humor, anyone? and current. You are becoming my bff during my morning coffee.
