1. I didn't see the whole debate but, from what I did see:
- Biden repeatedly used the flimsy or debunked anonymously sourced rumors as facts without any pushback from Wallace
- Biden's lack of condemnation of Antifa was clear whereas Trump did condemn WS
2. Biden repeatedly avoided taking stances against extreme LW policies (nuke filibuster / pack SCOTUS)

3. Both Trump & Biden used petty insults and took over the top umbrage at the other's comments
4. We all knew the media would spin for Biden but it's been way over the top and just an extension of his campaign

5. People defending Trump's behavior are not helping him. I don't think that the (few) voters who can still be swayed will respond positively to that style
6. Wallace bringing up WS violence in Tulsa (that I honestly hadn't heard of) as an equally troubling issue facing America without mentioning Portland, Minneapolis, DC, NYC was disgraceful

1. I've been thinking a lot about the logic behind the Hamas terror attack and I'm struggling to connect the dots.
2. This attack was so far beyond any previous Hamas terror, so evil and brazen, they had to know that Israel would become even more united and be forced to declare war with the sole purpose of completely removing them.
3. So, what's to be gained here? Was it to derail the expanding peace between Israel and other Arab countries? To some degree, absolutely.

1. When I joined the Navy as a new officer with a New England university engineering degree, I thought I was hot shit and the intellectual better than the enlisted sailors working for me, a 22 year old Ensign.
2. Luckily, I went into the Navy nuclear power program where I was surrounded by sailors who were so much smarter (like @exjon), and some higher educated, than me. I found myself having to examine what my role was. I was senior to these men but clearly not superior.

1. The protest at the Capitol on J6 turned into a riot with the explicit intent of disrupting the proceedings of Congress. The protest is fine, the riot is where it becomes a problem for everyone who stuck around and continued with the disruption.
2. The riot turned violent in and the Left/ media's outrage reaction was in stark contrast to previous violent riots that they explained & excused. None the less, violence must be prosecuted regardless of the "nobility of the cause" or the political tribe of the criminals.
3. The Capitol Police, City of DC, and Pelosi's office are not without blame for the completely inadequate preparation for this event that they all knew was coming and had the potential to get out of hand.

Musings from my visit to Napa this week. No pictures (sorry) sine they’ll likely show up on my wife’s FB feed. The goal of this visit was to go to OG places that we never hit before.
Bistro Don Giovanni. Passed this place a hundred times but never stopped there. That was a mistake since the vibe, food & service were wonderful. Notable Caesar salad and scallop risotto.
Chateau Montelena. Famous history (look it up) and a really beautiful property. Although the wines were not to our taste, our host gave us a fantastic experience. Totally worth it even just for that.

1. The reaction to C19 wasn't always or even frequently driven by science or caution. It was often driven by politics and payback. People were hurt physically, financially, & emotionally and when they tried to pushback, they were demonized, attacked, & punished.
2. If it was only tough decisions made w/o enough information, then I’d be open to forgiveness, but it wasn’t. It was a coordinated attack to lock in political policies. Recall Chicago, Minnesota & LA teachers’ unions striking for increased pay and benefits under the guise of C19
3. There was ample evidence available that C19 responses in many areas were unnecessary and oppressive. But, anyone saying it was tagged as not just wrong but evil and dangerous. People lost their social media accounts or worse, their jobs.

1. Exactly 20 years ago today, I lost my Grandfather. Image
2. He worked on his father's ice delivery truck in the 20's & 30's delivering ice in the Boston area. He confided to me that he would also "deliver" to several hot housewives on the route from time to time (this was before he was married).
3. He got married but it wasn't working out. So, while separated, he met my Grandmother, who was married to another man and had already had my Mother. But, before things got to salacious, WWII came and the Army Air Corps called.
