Week 33

After watching RJK Jr. get grilled this week by the Senate, and hearing his comments and looking at his decisions, this person's post on X is so appropriate:

Research in universities and by the NIH and by the CDC is being canceled by the Trump administration, and ridiculous research is being carried out - like that Tylenol use in pregnancy causes autism. How many children were born without autism whose mothers took Tylenol? Probably way more than those who have autism and there was Tylenol use in pregnancy. Bobby Kennedy says that anyone can get a Covid vaccine - but that is just not true. I have a chronic auto-immune condition and take meds to lessen an immune response and may have to jump through some hoops to get it.
RJK Jr. is certainly not his father. His father was a great man.


There is little on the legacy news about protests in DC and Chicago but they are still growing strong. Here is a short video of the DC protest stopped by church bells being rung as they pass:

In Chicago, there was a huge protest:

Trump's polls numbers regarding deployment of the National Guard are negative. A decision by a federal judge in LA went against Trump and his use of the National Guard there:


Hours after a federal court in California ruled against how President Trump used the National Guard in Los Angeles this summer, Trump touted his use of the National Guard in Washington, D.C., and said he would soon send the troops into Chicago, though he did not say when.​
"We're going in," Trump said about sending the National Guard to Chicago. The comment came today during a press conference in the Oval Office to announce the new headquarters of the U.S. Space Force. "I'm so very proud of Washington. It serves as the template."​
Speaking at his own press conference later, Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker said the National Guard was not needed or wanted in the city. But he said federal agents were already massing in a nearby military base and predicted they would soon start conducting immigration raids in Latino communities in order to spark demonstrations. "We know, before anything has happened here, that the Trump plan is to use any excuse to deploy armed military personnel to Chicago."​
It violates the Posse comitatus law. Trump is trying to start a federal police force which is what dictators do to gain control over the people. The government is suppose to be by the people and of the people, not by a self-styled dictator type.

Remember Trump's bragging about a deal with Japan? Per Japan, the deal is not there yet:

Japan's broad trade agreement with the United States is "not settled," as Washington has not issued the expected presidential orders on tariffs for pharmaceuticals and semiconductors, Tokyo's top tariff negotiator said Saturday.

"While a presidential order has been issued concerning adjustments to general tariffs as well as automobile and auto parts tariffs, presidential orders for most-favored-nation status for pharmaceuticals and semiconductors have not been issued," Ryosei Akazawa told reporters after returning from talks in Washington.

"Therefore, it cannot be said that this is settled," said Akazawa, who is also Japan's minister for economic policy, adding that Tokyo would continue to press for the remaining orders.

Trump needs to put the golf clubs down and do the job. Today it was tennis that distracted him. But he wasn't happy when he was shown on the video screens and received mostly loud boos. He saluted - it looked stupid.
