Short Take Politics
D’Oh Committee errs
Every time Elon Musk’s Mini Me’s think they’ve found something, for example, 200-year-old people collecting Social Security, it turns out to be nada. It reminds me of the scandal a few years ago when military hard assets were losing value annually. It was an outrage. Or depreciation. You know, like when you drive your new car off the lot. https://www.wbfo.org/2025-02-19/doge-released-data-about-federal-contract-savings-it-doesnt-add-up
President, Putin carve up Ukraine
So apparently, ending the war on Day 1 actually meant giving Vlad whatever he wants and making sure the United States is compensated for spending on the Ukrainian nation’s sovereignty. What a load of horseshit. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/ukraine-ready-carved-up-trump-34700823
Pearson Airport CEO shined
Listening to NPR while waiting for AAA to tow Beth’s car, (it was a battery), I listened to the NPR broadcast of the press conference post Pearson Airport plane crash. Deborah Flint, Pearson president and CEO did a better job in front of the cameras than I have ever heard. Given the color of her skin, I immediately Googled to see how the MAGA crows would attack her. She used to be in charge of LAX, the 8th largest. Pearson is No. 40. If she was a DEI hire in Canada, they need more. https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/toronto-pearson-airport-delta-pl…
