After some hard discussion, my wife and I have decided to sell our home in Federal Hill. It has been on our mind, but what’s going on in Europe this weekend is what’s brewing here. When items like Question 7 are actually up for discussion - what’s next? Election Day across the Nation may be a tough swallow. My old Party sold its soul to the Devil. New Hampshire will gain two mildly sane voters in the upcoming months.

Seems grossly unfair
BREAKING: FCC Chairman Brendan Carr announces the agency will vote on allowing U.S. prisons and jails to jam illegal cellphones for the first time, in a bid to stop inmates from coordinating criminal activities behind bars.

Since 1948, the population of Jews in Muslim countries has gone from approximately 1,000,000 to around 30,000. Since 1948, the population of Muslims in Jewish countries has gone from about 156,000 to around 2,000,000. Who’s guilty of apartheid and ethnic cleansing?

Israel provides more rights and freedoms to its Palestinian citizens than Hamas or Fatah do to those they govern. Freedom House rates Gaza (Hamas) 2/100 Not Free, with no elections since 2006, severe speech/press repression, and authoritarian rule. West Bank (Fatah/PA) scores 22/100 Not Free; no national elections since 2005-06, critics arrested, limited liberties. Israel scores 73/100 Free. Its Arab citizens vote, access independent courts, free media, and democratic institutions, despite documented disparities.

The Men’s US soccer rivalry with El Tri 🇲🇽 is the 2nd best in the Western Hemisphere, after Brasíl/Argentina. That the US doesn’t play these home games in a venue that would offer home field advantage is a complete miss. Yeah- you get the sellout in Phoenix tonight, in what will be a pro Mexico crowd in the desert. When we have to play at Azteca, THAT is a home field advantage. Play in Seattle or in the winter, anywhere it’s cold.

Appreciate the feedback, as always. For me: I see making money post-POTUS in a very different light. I have no illusions on Obama as far as doing the global circuit and making bank. He likes money, as most of these people do. But to me it's such a difference between in-office corruption and misuse of the mantle versus opportunism out of office. As I have said to many people: I look at previous presidential candidates from the past far differently now given this era. Romney being highest on that list.

The Palestinians have rejected a state of their own more times than any national movement in modern history. 1937 — Peel: a Jewish state on a sliver of the coast. Arab leadership said no and turned back to violence. 1947 — UN partition plan: an Arab state beside a Jewish state. The Arab Higher Committee said no, started a civil war, and then five Arab armies invaded. 2000 — Camp David: a Palestinian state with a capital in eastern Jerusalem. Arafat walked, proposed no counteroffer, and launched the Second Intifada. 2001 — Clinton Parameters: a Palestinian state with a capital in eastern Jerusalem, 96% of the "West Bank" plus 4% of Israel, all of Gaza and a connecting corridor. Arafat said no as the Second Intifada raged. 2008 — Olmert: 94% of the “West Bank” plus land swaps to make up for the other 6%, a capital in East Jerusalem, and the Old City under an international committee. The PA, this time under Abbas, never even bothered to answer. 2020 — Trump’s plan: a Palestinian state, a capital in a part of East Jerusalem, and $50 billion in economic aid to build their country. Abbas called it the “slap of the century” in 2018, two years before the text existed. On the day it was released, he said “a thousand times no.” He refused Trump’s call and refused to even take a copy. They do not keep saying no because the borders were wrong. They keep saying no because the real demand is not a state beside Israel. It is a state instead of Israel.

Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals he built a smoking tent outside his Capitol office to bypass laws and negotiate deals with lawmakers "The law says that you have to be 20 feet away from the building." "I have an atrium where my office is, and we have measured 20 feet away from the building from each side of this atrium. And we're building a tent. We built a tent that is big enough so we can have inside meetings and everything like that, and we're going to smoke our cigars in there." "They sent me a bill to forbid smoking in a smoking tent. And so, of course, I didn't sign it. I vetoed it." "Democrats and other legislators came down and asked me, begged me, 'Can I come down and smoke?' And that's how I got most of my deals done." "They came down to smoke, and we found something in common, which is smoking. We smoked our stogies, took our jackets off, took our ties off, and we were sitting there and saying, 'What are you working on?'" "And so we started working together, and I was able to sign more of their legislation because they were not stubborn about how they wrote the legislation. We got a lot of things done because of the smoking tent."

I’m not the RIGOP. I’m one of the only relevant Republicans who isn’t elected, representing someplace that would elect a Republican potato. No disrespect to the potato. I do my own thing. If I ran RIGOP? Huge success. So much winning they’d beg me to stop.
