The news these days is too often bad. There is domestic unrest all over the United States; the Middle East is once again aflame, and Russia and China both are growing more bellicose by the day. Gas and grocery prices are up, interest rates are up, wages are stagnant, and it's raining out.
Now and then, though, a news item comes along that just makes one grin. In one such, we read today that Her Imperial Majesty Hillary I, Dowager-Empress of Chappaqua, has produced a Broadway play about the early 20th-century suffragette movement, called "Suffs" - and it's absolutely bombing: The Broadway box office numbers for the week of May 5

Just as Hamas targeted young children, even babies, for unthinkable torture and death, pro-Hamas demonstrators in Berkeley targeted a Jewish Community Center (NOT an Israeli facility) with preschool students in class as they chanted slogans through a bullhorn and marched. Even worse, the students who walked out were reportedly accompanied by two vice principals from the Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School as they intimidated the innocent toddlers, guilty solely of being Jewish.

In a letter dated April 8, 2024, addressed to Chief Judge Swain of New York, Ashley Biden, daughter of U.S. President Joe Biden, confirmed the authenticity of her previously ‘stolen’ diary.
The diary, which has sparked considerable public and media attention due to Joe Biden’s perverted acts, became a subject of controversy when excerpts were leaked online.
Ashley Biden’s letter, obtained by the New York Times, was submitted as part of a judicial proceeding against Aimee Harris, one of the individuals convicted of ‘stealing’ and selling her personal journal.
In her correspondence, Ashely Biden expressed profound distress over the theft and subsequent public dissemination of her private thoughts,

Climate change has brought the world to the “breaking point,” Pope Francis asserted in his introduction to a 3-day climate summit to be held in the Vatican in May. (snip)
Curiously, Pope Francis has singled out the United States as particularly responsible for the climate “emergency” because of the “irresponsible lifestyle” of its citizens.
(snip) In his introduction to the Vatican summit, which will be held May 15-17, Francis states that climate change is “no longer a secondary or ideological question, but a drama that harms us all,” adding that climate change manifests “a tragic and striking example of structural sin.”

Professor Bill McGuire is a well-known vulcanologist and climate scientist who doesn't care much for humanity. He tweeted out a scathingly brilliant idea if you're in the mortuary business or work as a grave digger.
"If I am brutally honest, the only realistic way I see emissions falling as fast as they need to, to avoid catastrophic #climate breakdown, is the culling of the human population by a pandemic with a very high fatality rate." https://t.co/hzga69EhV3

Ooopsie. McGuire deleted the tweet a few hours later but had no regrets. The trouble is, we just don't understand how brilliant he is.

Actress Jennifer Lawrence taunted former Vice President Mike Pence, calling him a closeted gay man at GLAAD’s (Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) annual Media Awards event in New York City Saturday.
The show started Saturday with a bit of disruption, as one invited guest had to be escorted out of the venue after standing up and yelling about how GLAAD is “complicit in genocide” over the situation in Gaza. From the stage, TV personality Ross Matthews agreed that the issue was important, Billboard reported.

The Democrats intend to investigate former President Donald Trump to death, and they aren’t waiting for him to win the White House again to do it.
The latest leftie to threaten an investigation into the GOP’s presumptive nominee is Rhode Island Democrat Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who said it is “highly likely” the Senate Budget Committee, for which he serves as chair, will be looking into comments Trump reportedly made to oil executives at a Mar-a-Lago meeting last month.
Whitehouse is already digging into Big Oil, Newsweek reports, and said it’s a “natural extension of the investigation already underway.”

Minnesota raised its new state flag over its capitol on Saturday. The flag was unfurled on the state's "Statehood Day" holiday and features a stylized outline of the state, an eight-pointed star and a field of light blue. The unveiling is the culmination of a competition to redesign the flag and state seal to replace one that showed native peoples being driven off their land. The final design for the flag was modified from a submission by Andrew Prekker. "The new flag and seal reflect all Minnesotans and showcase the features of our state that we can all recognize – the

Here's something that the Washington Post's Allyson Chiu may not know: When the temps outside drop to -32 (good American Fahrenheit, not commie Celsius), even with an oil burner, baseboard electric heater, and the wood stove going, the house gets chilly. So, despite Ms. Chiu's recommendations, I'm not taking a cold shower to save the planet - not now, not in the middle of winter, not anytime. But that isn't the only thing she thinks we should do to reduce hot water usage.
Washing machines guzzle an average of 25 gallons of hot water per use, according to the Energy Department — the most compared to other common household activities.

I always thought “ironclad” meant binding, but to President Biden it apparently means a pledge that’s good until it becomes politically inconvenient to stick to it. On at least two occasions he asserted his (and our) commitment to Israel’s defense was “ironclad”: “On July 18, 2023, seated beside Mr. Herzog. “And as I affirmed to Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu yesterday, America’s commitment to Israel is firm. And it is ironclad.” He reiterated this pledge last month: "As I told Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu, our commitment to Israel's security against these threats from Iran and its proxies is ironclad - let me say it again, ironclad," Mr. Biden said.

Nancy Pelosi and her husband took a break from their insider trading to attend a public debate at the Oxford Union in Oxford, England. The Oxford Union is a highly esteemed debating society and is one of Britain’s oldest university unions founded in 1823.

(snip) Marshall participated in the debate on populism and its perceived threat by the global elites.
During his speech Pelosi rudely interrupted the brilliant young mind to argue that the violent and costly month-long protests and attacks on the City of Portland were not as devastating as the Jan. 6 protests and riot.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas painted a dark picture of what working in Washington, D.C. is like.
Thomas described the “nastiness and the lies” he and his wife endure during a judicial conference on Friday, adding that the nation’s capital is a “hideous place.” His comments come following a question about working in a polarizing environment, calling it “incredible” to live in a world the way we do now.
“But you have some choices. You don’t get to prevent people from doing horrible things or saying horrible things. But one you have to understand and accept the fact that they can’t change you unless you permit that,”
