Thanks as always to Pirate’s Cove and The Other McCain for the Rule Five links!  So, let’s have a few random thoughts and observations this morning.

What with the release of FISA warrant requests and the ongoing drama over the pre-elections actions of Strzok and company, there’s more talk than ever about the Deep State.  Want to do something about it?  How about reining the Imperial government in to what it is constitutionally limited to doing, and thereby removing most of the power from Imperial officials and bureaucrats?

Chicago has been named the rat capital of the United States.  But enough about the Rahm Emmanuel mayoralty; there are a lot of small, pestiferous rodents there too.

The “Democratic Socialist” (a synonym for “Economically Illiterate”) wing of the Democratic Party is doing their best to ensure President Trump coasts to re-election in 2020.  Take a look at the supposedly male person standing speaking in the photo; why are so many lefty males such sad little weeds?

On the Cold War II front, President Trump may have picked up an unlikely ally:  Piers Morgan.  Scanning the sky for flying pigs now.

A new discovery may lead to a revolution in deodorants.  But if the Democratic Socialists like She Guevara and the daffy old socialist from Vermont get there way, you won’t have many choices in deodorants any more.

This story reminds me of the young man who was vacationing in the British Isles.  He was in a charming country pub one afternoon when he encountered two very large women speaking with a thick, distinctive brogue.  “Excuse me,” has asked, “are you two ladies from Scotland?”

“Wales, you idiot,” one of the women snapped back.

“I’m sorry,” the young man replied.  “Are you two whales from Scotland?”

On that note, we return you to your Monday, already in progress.
