Diary 252

Wednesday, November 25th

I’ll confess that it’s almost a relief these days to read the news. The former ‘president’ is no longer dominating the front pages with some idiotic statement or other,  Instead we have plenty of bad news, but we don’t have to excavate our way through a mountain of distractions in quite the same way as before.

That said, the squatter in the White House has pardoned former General Michael Flynn. You remember him. He’s one of the ones who lied to the FBI about Russian interference in the 2016 election. He even pleaded guilty, twice, as I recall. So it’s OK for a senior Army officer to consort with the enemies of the state to pervert the democratic process.

Tell that to the Marines.
