The big circus is underway with the January 6 hearings in D.C. It's under the direction of a Hollywood producer, at taxpayer expense of course. I don’t recall Benghazi getting prime time. If this was a fact based commission, the first witness would be Nancy Pelosi. She would be asked why she declined President Trump’s request for additional police support. The whole mess is right out of the communist show trial play book. UNBELIEVABLE! It’s amazing how they can spin a group of boisterous people wielding selfie sticks, a clown pretending to be a Viking, someone wheeling around a pilfered podium, into a well planned attempt to take over the government. This committee is not only hosting the circus, they are the circus. If it’s not too late, maybe Lloyd-Webber can knock up a musical score and the Hamilton cast can sing it. Liz Cheney can play the wicked step mother, Adam Schiff the lying deceitful sorcerer and Adam Kinzinger the dopey village idiot. How about a commission on record high inflation, sky high gas prices and the soaring cost of food?

Speaking of government, read a report last night that the GAO still can’t account for a bit of missing money we all sent them. Just a tad though. How about more than $21 trillion dollars handed over by the American taxpayer. We’ve all lost things over the years though, only to have them re-surface. And sadly, sometimes not. I remember when the Inspector General found the Army had lost track of some tanks. How can you lose a tank? Ah well, the more things change the more they stay the same. I can’t remember who coined that phrase, but it’s true.

NEWS FROM DEEP SPACE! Astronomers have detected a radio burst coming from a galaxy three billion light years from Earth. Not sure we can do anything about something that far away. But who knows? Just 200 years ago it took months to get to old Europe by sail. Perhaps it’s a warning from a distant planet about the cost of living going up. Maybe their elites let them starve. Anyway, I hope the scientist don’t reply and tell “them” where we are. We’re too busy fighting among ourselves to cope with aliens.

It’s time to take our leave for the day and see what tomorrow brings. You take good care of yourself old buddy. We can’t control much of what’s going on in this world today, but we can watch the story spin out.

Til Next Week:
