It’s not the batshit fringe that are dangerous. Well, I mean yes they are dangerous situationally. It’s the cowardly legislators that are the danger to our democracy.

I have this weird feeling today, Reid. I think President Biden is going to change course.

He has said so many times that he will not “do” inaction. I think PaJoe is about to flex some muscle.

Agree with Christine. Hey, blood moon and Mercury in retrograde in the same week. Lookout kiddies the ship may hit the sand here soon.

Saturn opposing Uranus and the US’s Pluto return, all over the next two years will make for some very rough going. The turmoil is unfortunately not over.

More like 2 years than 2 months unfortunately.

Yes. I was just listening to something about the eclipse and the next two months and then the end of this year being particularly gnarly in the short term.

Gnarly ok. It does not deter us. Bigger problem for the slick bunch.

And the May full is also called the “flower” moon. “April showers bring May flowers.”

At least tomorrow morning's massive full moon will change the awful weather that we have been having here in May. The sunshine is coming back.

They've finished consolidating and now are just starting the rebuil as before project. A lot of "compagnon" roof workers who are capable of doing the work and of respecting its special spiritual character and a great deal of seasoned quality oak have to be found. Both rather rare unfortunately. It'll take 10-15 years to do it properly.

I hope you're right. He doesn't have a track record of political courage, but I get the sense he understands himself to be in a position to be a truly transformational President. As I have said before here, I am also very hopeful that he has surrounded himself with very bright political people and he listens to them.

They've got a fight on their hands. Time to get down to the rough stuff.

I don't think of Biden's style as non-courageous. He is first a practical across-the-aisle negotiator, which is the natural tussle of a good democracy. Then, if that fails, he has a spine of stee to match the warmth of his heart. Watch.

I guess we'll see. In his career he has done a lot of gauging which way the wind blows before taking a position (see his tone deaf response to bussing, for instance). A politician doesn't last as long as Joe has without a lot of zigging and zagging. But he is in his last job and can afford to be bold and I believe he will be. Needs to be soon, though.
