1. Apparently, Dewayne 'The Rock' Johnson (the wrestler-actor) had a meeting with Republican figures yesterday. Nothing was openly discussed.
The Rock is a resident of California and I might go and suggest he's looking at entering the Senate race for 2024.
What this does to the race in California? All three of the top Democratic contenders announced so far....would have a problem. The Rock fills the black 'square' and the Samoan 'square'.
I'm guessing he wants some funding help and the GOP might be figuring his odds.
2. The situation with Fetterman (the new Senator from Penn)?
Well....his staff announced late yesterday that he's entered the hospital again. What they say? He's in for treatment of a depression issue now.
My humble view? He's got intense pressure building up and expectations from his staff to perform. He just can't handle the mess he walked into.
I expect him to be there for a week, and then go spend a week or two on home-rest. For the next couple of months....I doubt if he shows up more than three hours a day.
3. What President Biden said of the balloons yesterday? "They were most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions studying weather..."
In simple terms, the last three 'things' are still unidentified because the Pentagon has not been able to find them.
On the BS-level....(1-to-10)....it's probably a '7'.
4. A page-7 story, but the Russian lady who is the Finance 'Boss' of the Western Military District (the region around the Ukraine).....jumped off a sky-rise yesterday....dead. Not a lot of details, but I would imagine the budget is pretty empty and the war can't be financed with legit money.
