You could have heard a pin drop! | Pacific Paratrooper

…JFK’s Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60’s when DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO.  DeGaulle said he wanted all U.S. military out of France as soon as possible.

Rusk responded: “Does that include those who are buried here?”

DeGaulle did not respond… You could have heard a pin drop…

Helping others is the best way to help yourself! – Silent Songs of Sonsnow

“Not only is it the case that happy people are more willing to help others, but as I generally point out, helping others is the best way to help yourself, the best way to promote your own happiness. It is you, yourself, who will receive the benefit.”

His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

Open Thread | What Is At Stake In November | 3CHICSPOLITICO

Saw the tweet where it said that President Biden had his 150th Judge confirmed. Of that, 100 were women.

I want to remind people that there were those in 2016 who told us that they couldn’t be scared into voting for Hillary by using “The Court”. Of course the feeble-minded thoughts of these people were only focused on the Supreme Court. Of course, I meant The Supreme Court, but also the ENTIRETY OF THE FEDERAL JUDICIARY.

A Federal Judiciary that had more openings than it should have because Mitch McConnell had spent years blocking President Obama from being able to fill open slots in the Judiciary. So, there were all those slots to fill when the Orange Menace won. All those Federalist Society judges, a high number deemed UNQUALIFIED , like that clown Cannon down in Florida, doing her best to throw the documents case.😠😠

The same right-wing judges that they go judge shopping with their flimsy , ridiculous cases.

 

So, yes, it’s very important that President Biden has been able to get through as many judges as he could. There are some Circuits that are packed with right-wing clowns, but it’s important to have these Biden-nominated judges everywhere.

So, for those that couldn’t be scared into voting for Hillary…how’s that 6-3 right wing Court treating you?

The loss of body autonomy for women and Affirmative Action…

How did that work out?

So, think on this, if you are thinking about pursing your lips about not being scared….

You doubt that if the Orange Menace wins in November, that Thomas and Alito won’t resign, and be replaced by right-wing lunatics in their 40’s? You can bet on it.

Stop with the foolishness that you don’t understand what’s at stake.😠😠

Mashed Potato Cakes | snapshotsincursive

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Time To Eat: Mashed Potato Cakes! Remember when you were a kid and you went to the beach to build sandcastles? Sometimes they molded and other times they crumbled. Well, today is a day for you to try again and get it right. There is one exception, though. Instead of using sand, we are going to use mashed potatoes. The results are crispy on the outside and perfection on the inside. Let the fun begin…
