Five Things

 1.  Some folks in Texas have cited Article I, Section 10, Clause 3 of the Constitution for a open discussion with the Feds.

It says: states can’t do things like conduct foreign policy or engage in war, “unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit delay.”

Yeah, it's opening a whole big bunch of chaos for the Biden folks, if they challenge this via court and get approval to run their own foreign policy or engage in some type of warfare (just wild guesses how this would work at the state level).

The problem is....you would get support via Republican's and independents in the state, and I'd take a wild guess that 10-percent of Texas Democrats feel the same way.  

This opening up as a 2023 issue?  More than likely, and it's bound to split the nation even more.

2.  I've seen two odd political ads this week.  One with a black guy protecting his home with a AR15 from Klan folks.  The second was a woman (upside down) twerking....for about 30 seconds.

None of this would be normal a decade ago.

3.  VP Harris yesterday quote: “We got to take this stuff seriously, as seriously as you are because you have been forced to have take this seriously”

It's not just Joe who needs memory cards and just read from the cards.

4.  Joe Rogan basically said that Donald Trump will never be on his podcast....mostly because he thinks it'd help Trump.

My take?  If you had a two-hour conversation with Trump....it'd become apparent that he has this extra dry-dry-dry sense of humor that is displayed about every five minutes....in the middle of serious moment....he just dumps this one-line bit of wit, and you catch it.

It's like the wit put out there when he suggested buying Greenland.  That torqued about half the nation and most all Greenland citizens.  I don't think any part of his 60 second chat on this....was serious.  If President Biden went and suggested we buy Greenland today....people would just say it's Joe's humor at work, or that he meant Greenland, Texas.

5.  With all this chatter about 'birthing people'....I was wondering....couldn't we use 'birthing citizens' instead?
