Fake News follies….
The irreplaceable Sharyl Attkisson has compiled a list of 102 media mistakes on Trump. She is also a first-class investigative reporter, so read anything and everything she writes. She never shies from controversy and she always seeks the truth and she calls out her colleagues who fail to do the same.
Fry shortage?
Wet and cold weather has damaged potato crops in Idaho and in two of Canada’s largest-producing provinces. Some growers were able to dig up some damaged crops for storage, but growers in Manitoba, North Dakota and Minnesota received snow and rain, forcing them to abandon some supplies in fields.
Demand for this tasty treat has risen internationally, and since the U.S. will have little available for export, prices could rise substantially and shortages may occur. Fry makers prefer longer potatoes for use, but this year’s crops are smaller and less convenient to prepare. Eat up quickly, folks!!
Black Friday shopping…
The media served up steaming headlines of horse puckey about the big sale day being a bust this year. Instead it set records, including being the second largest Internet shopping day ever. Foot traffic at bricks and mortar stores may have been down a bit, but online and phone orders were higher than ever. We’ll know more after all the calculations are done.
It appears that shoppers could ignore the climate emergency and the disruptions of the climate Nazis, even when led by the treasonous Jane Fonda. I deliberately avoided the physical crowds, though I did purchase a few things online very early in the morning when most sensible people were still asleep. Once again, online retailers were not prepared for the crush of customers.
Sabo skewers Schiff…
The street artist has put his sights on Rep. Adam Schiff by creating a new series of impeachment-themed posters parodying the long running Showtime series Shameless, and placing them throughout Schiff’s district in Los Angeles. It’s not hard to figure out that Sabo is no fan of the impeachment manager.
What a good girl!
A stray dog is found wrapped around five small black kittens, protecting them from the snow and freezing cold on the side of the road. No one knows how any of them got there, or if the dog knew the kittens, but a shelter has taken them in. I hope whoever adopts the dog also adopts one of the kittens when they are old enough, since she seems bonded to them. Good luck to Serenity and the kittens she helped out!
