Jury selection continues in Trump’s criminal trial in New York. It could take forever to find 12 sentient beings who live, breathe and haven’t concluded that Trump is a piece of shit.
You think it’s been a wet spring in Delaware? Yesterday in Dubai 5 inches of rain – more than the desert city averages per year – fell in a single day, closing the airport and causing widespread flooding.
Too much rain isn’t the only thing falling from the sky lately. Some guy in Naples, Fla., has to contend with a piece of space trash crashing through his roof – a piece of jetsam from the International Space Station that NASA thought would burn up on re-entry. Oopsie!
Elsewhere in Florida, Ron DeSantis found out that banning books isn’t as easy as Hitler made it look. He had to sign a new law limiting the number of books a non-parent could challenge in school libraries because, he said, people were making a mockery of the system. Golly, who would want to go and do a thing like that?
The floor’s yours.
I agree that it is going to be very tough find 12 sentient beings who live, breathe and haven’t concluded that Trump is a piece of shit.
Ergo – the jury will be a bunch of stone cold dummies or very good liars. Hopefully they use their lying skills to benefit humanity.
