“The White House has also been scrambling in recent days to line up enough attendees, as Trump’s aides fret that either thunderstorms or the traditional free concert on the other end of the Mall could diminish the crowd for Trump’s 6:30 p.m. speech.”

Hmm. Rain across the valley right now. The cookout today is pretty local, my brother, his fiance, and me. Veggie burgers (fiance is vegetarian), curry, corn on the cob, and a lime pie.
The lastmost is in a wait mode since my brother needs a egg for the pie. The grocery store closed a few hours ago. So we’re waiting for one of the chickens to produce the needed ingredient.
No eggs might give Mrs Tweedy some ideas however…

this, by the way, is an example of why I despise much of the “heart of America” working class. This fat schlub sitting there with his shirt open, wearing those ridiculous socks and his little maga hat. It tears me, because my mother’s brothers were all (except one) decent working-class guys who all knew how to run a lathe, and what actual craftsmanship looked like. But they probably would have been Trump supporters because there was just this sort of Pennsylvania redneck vibe that they all had. Their wives, though, would probably have voted for Clinton, because they were the smarter halves of those pairings.

And the sad truth is that wet may be better than baked. But the instruments are not going to be happy….
Trump’s military parade is now a static display that only he and his sycophants can view from inside the VIP (pay) section.
Trump’s fly-bys are likely grounded due to weather. You’re not going to do fly-bys in thunderstorms and low cloud ceiling. Public safety and all.
The weather is playing havoc with Trump’s vaunted parade to himself, which is emblematic of everything Trump does. It’s half assed, poorly planned, with no thought of logistics and cost, and dumping the mess on others (and blaming others for the failure too).
Oh, and that the earthcam is out is likely meant to prevent people from seeing just how poor the turnout truly is.
After all, Trump’s jack booted thugs erected fencing all around the Lincoln Memorial to keep Americans away from the revered location. That’s got nothing to do with security and everything to do with trying to keep protesters far away from Trump.
Everything about this reeks, but I repeat myself.
One Trump supporter attending the ‘Salute to America’ told @schmidtsam7 she thinks of the president’s speech at the Lincoln Memorial as similar to MLK’s ‘I have a dream’ address: “We want to witness this part of history being built.” https://t.co/jcrA5ZyyeG

Just putting this here, because that meme of Irish indentured servitude (“slavery”) being as bad or worse than African chattel slavery sometimes gets shown here (and attacked, of course). Liam Hogan has been a busy man, debunking that meme, and here is a LONG list of articles he has written or been quoted in to that regard.
A friend of like mind furnished this, in response to my sharing of the short Martin Luther King Jr. statement, posted earlier today here.
BTW, for the last few days, that little screen featuring the video clip in the post, and following down the side of the page: it has stopped working.

There was some confusion over the intent of the sign, though given who she was sitting near, I was leaning more toward the “they had it coming” side. But it’s definitely better to be safe.
Reading Bret Stephens’ whinge about people upset because people call them out on their racist and bigoted opinions:
In the proverbial land of the free, people live in mortal fear of a moral faux pas. Opinions that were considered reasonable and normal a few years ago are increasingly delivered in whispers.
Being Bret Stephens, he has this completely wrong. The problem is that, while a few years ago people felt some inhibition about saying racist and bigoted things, they increasingly feel disinhibited.
Plus, you know, a lot of what people feel like others are shaming them for are things they should be ashamed of. AND Conservatives are constantly conflating having their opinions challenged with being deprived of free speech.

Appearing to have some reading trouble, Trump said that the army “took over the airports” during a part of his speech about its actions in the 1700s and early 1800s, when there were not airports or airplanes. pic.twitter.com/fgr8rXBGnD

To be fair, even the professionals make mistakes. There was a time, in my brief career as a professional shooter, where I almost watched my dad get blown up by a 3” mortar.
1) Support for impeaching Trump mostly EXCEEDS support for Nixon’s impeachment *when Congress was seriously considering it*…
2) …despite the fact that Congress is NOT considering an impeachment inquiry against Trump.
3) Swing District Dems don’t need to fear their shadows. https://t.co/rg8EUMgSEQ— Not Individual-1 (@yottapoint) July 4, 2019

“…Sean Joseph, a 21-year-old student at Virginia Commonwealth University, said he got a group of tickets from his father, who works for the Secret Service. The family had extra tickets, so he invited his friends Jaime Brown, a 20-year-old George Mason University student wearing a MAGA hat, and David Kincaid, 20, also a VCU student.
“I wanted to see the ‘Great White Hope’ speak to us Americans,” Joseph said. “He has America first and that’s what I care about. I want to see Americans thrive before anyone else who doesn’t deserve to be here thrive.”
Accident of birth finds himself deserving. Very Trumpian.

This is the modern GOP and right-wing Christianity. Apparently, White American Jesus has become the official icon of Protestantism. I has a sad.

As they walked, the group joked about the idea that Nancy Pelosi is an alcoholic who “hates ICE except in her whiskey” but she was “hot, like in the 60’s… she had a nice rack.”
One followed up by randomly chanting “Jared Holt sucks!”

“Our Army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over airports, it did everything it had to do and at Ft. McHenry under the rocket’s red glare had nothing but victory. When dawn came, the star-spangled banner waved defiant.” Donald Trump 7/4/19
Well done, speechwriters.— Bob Cesca (@bobcesca_go) July 5, 2019
Trump’s misreading of basic facts of US history he appeared to encounter for the first time on the teleprompter led him to claim that Congress named the Continental Army “after” George Washington, who defeated Cornwallis “of” Yorktown, and the US army took over “airports” in 1814 https://t.co/CMYhbGwqeC

“Counselor”, as long as they can pass their bar exam. Though I think it works a whole lot better when it’s used on med students since THEY don’t have even that type of proof-of-practical-knowledge.
