Schloss-Blog looking at $1.776 billion in slush-fund money that the Trump says it will not seek.
To spend on junkies and losers who attacked the Capital on that infamous Jan. 6 day.
Only in America, Trump's America, do convicted criminals get a windfall, slush-fund fortune. And while the administration is saying the fund is dead - for now - the president is being more sneaky about it, more undeniably deniable.
Trump is saying, "I'd have to ask the lawyers, I don't know," when it comes to the fund.
In other words, it ain't dead yet. Like zombies, it's still around. For now.
And when it gets paid out, the Democrats will gripe, they'll complain, they'll declare the injustice of it all.
And then watch it get paid out, unable to stop it, while their appeals possibly wither in court.

Congrats, Golden Tempo.
The Kentucky Derby winner outdueled Commandment and Renegade down the stretch at Saratoga, coming from way behind, to win the Belmont Stakes.
Didn't make for much of a quinella or Trifecta, if you're a betting person, but it made for an exciting race at a sold-out Saratoga, hosting the race for a final time, in all likelihood, as Belmont itself completes renovation.

Beyond the firing the Scott Pelley at CBS' "60 Minutes," the network's top brass is apparently worried about its image and the damage done to it by the work of Bari Weiss, who's now running the news operation at the so-called Tiffany network.
Is her job in jeopardy, for doing what the owner Ellisons likely wanted? Which is take down the credibility of a program that Donald Trump hates so much that he sued the network over it and got them to cough up $16 million to settle it.

The last Baby Boomer will turn 65 in 2030.
Yes, the dominant generation for so long is now watching as Millennials and Gen Z take over, with their mandate to feel that everything would be handed to them and they don't have to work that hard.
Is the nation subsequently in trouble?
Well, yeah, Trump is president, right?
