Let’s start with Bette Midler’s complete and total freak out over losing her blue check:
The runner-up:
Audrey’s Notebooks
Next, the New York Post says the FBI will never release Audrey Hale's manifestos. My guess is that they’re more worried about harm to the transgender community. No doubt, there are very powerful people breathing down their necks, saying they will have blood on their hands if they get anyone killed. I doubt they are worried about the other way around. They would not hold back if the person was a Trump supporter:
Metro Nashville Council Member Courtney Johnston confirmed to The Post the FBI has already ruled the manifesto would not be released any time soon.
“What I was told is, her manifesto was a blueprint on total destruction, and it was so, so detailed at the level of what she had planned,” she said, when reached by phone.
“That document in the wrong person’s hands would be astronomically dangerous,” she added. Here is the link.
Music
Quite an enjoyable rendition of Van Morrison’s Sweet Thing (one of my favorite songs):
Cooking:
One of my favorite YouTubers shows us how they made chocolate ice cream in the frontier days:
Podcast:
Always my favorite way to close out the week, Matt Taibbi and Walter Kirn’s America This Week [Listen here]
And:
Glenn Greenwald’s latest at System Update is a MUST-LISTEN. The opening of this is just purely brilliant. I will be using it at some point as a clip. But there is no way to embed Rumble videos on Substack, at least not yet.
Does anyone think any action will be taken on the involvement of the Biden campaign and the Hunter Biden laptop as part of the scheme to rig the 2020 election (no, I’m not talking about voting machines)? If only the GOP had more power, which they don’t.
Have a great weekend. My next piece I hope to post Sunday.
Joe Biden is the most evil and corrupt President this Country has ever had.
He's possibly done irreparable harm to our alliances, the fiscal health of the nation, and has promoted a higher degree of divisiveness than any President since pre civil war.
I believe he is absolutely compromised by our enemies who are using him to weaken what we've built over the past 250 years.
I know the media painted Trump this way, but Joe is the real deal.
Biden is venal and corrupt. Obama was a tool. They are both surrounded by and embedded in evil. This started in the 60’s when the red-diaper babies all read Mao’s little red book, and took it to be an instruction manual.
So true. The media and the RINO’s have tried to paint Trump as some aberration, but those of us who refuse to be gaslit know he’s not. Trump is one of the best presidents this nation has had. In the big picture, this is not about Trump, this is about the left advancing their radical agenda. It means the destruction of liberty. We cannot let them.
So many knew the Biden family was corrupt, but no idea this amount of corruption was allowed for decades. What a horrible man to sell out our country for his consuming greed. Every person in this administration is either totally corrupt or totally incompetent, therefore easy to sway to pressure to go along with Biden-Harris agenda. Traitors all of them. Let the impeachments begin including Wray, Garland, Blinken, Austin, Sullivan, every cabinet person, Biden and Harris.
Biden used ‘his sad little story’ for sympathy votes and has continued for years. He also uses his son’s death (Beau) every opportunity he can while lying about how he died. Jill is just as bad when it comes to low morals. She had to know Joe was taking showers with their daughter Ashley. Poor girl even wrote in her diary about waiting until late to shower to try to avoid him coming in. Jill would know all about his tendencies for young girls.
“Star of the County Down” Van Morrison and the Chieftains ftw. I am so glad Ms. Stone decided the share her incredible talent with us. It does take bravery to go against one’s tide and to reveal unpopular truths.
'If only the GOP had more power, which they don’t.'
Because the corporate media are no longer the fourth estate. They are an extension of the fascists (I can't believe I'm using that trite term, but it applies) currently looking to turn the US into a one party Republic.
Journalism was supposed to keep everybody honest, but unfortunately, they've picked a side.
It's been a long, long time since someone told Bette Midler (or David Frum for that matter) that they're not particularly special.
My guess about the manifesto is that unlike the Buffalo Shooter (which they blamed on Tucker Carlson even though he never mentioned Carlson's name), Audrey Hale did mention names, people who "radicalized" her by convincing her she was a victim and the only way to get revenge or get noticed was to kill, for example, children. When anyone in government says, "This is too dangerous for people to see," it means that it is politically dangerous.
Biden is never going to face the music because the wrong people were well aware of his activities. He's been in government for half a century and he was doing these things right under Obama's nose for eight of those. If Biden goes down, so do a whole bunch of other much more precious Democrats. That's why the media will spin until they corkscrew themselves into the ground before admitting that the Biden family is nothing more than a bunch of shakedown artists.
Nice round up. I always listen to Taibbi and Kirn, but I only sporadically catch Greenwald. So thanks for the heads up.
Biden has had late stage dementia for a few years and he was already stupid to begin with. He admitted to plagiarism in college. So a combination of stupid and immoral. And I am already dreading how they are going to memory hole him and his corrupt clan and instead paint a picture of the noble warrior, the powerful wife behind the scenes channeling Elinor Roosevelt, and the supportive but all too human children who consoled themselves by sleeping with their in-laws. FJB.
And I agree with you on the schadenfreude watching celebrities and leftist lose their precious blue checkmarks. That's what happens when life is all about your ego and your pride.
With political discussion we usually try to address the issues with the politician, and not his family. In this case however, it is hard to do. They are so enmeshed, and they are all evil. I will say one thing about Jill though. I hope when I become a senile old man, which at my age could be any day now, my wife has more respect for me than to shove me on stage before the world, and allow me to make a fool of myself. Jill is a truly despicable. .
I continue to hold the vacant jill biden to blame for all this chaos. What wife, who loves her husband, would put him through this. Her desire for her 15 min of fame over rode her respect for her husband. Having said that, I can't think of a more deserving person to have his decline broadcasted for the world and documented for history than this traitor and his family.
Oh yeah, and obama knew nothing of the biden family side business.
It is all spiraling down at a rapid rate, hope. Where can we go to get America back? My grandkids will never know the America I (we) knew. People sacrificed their lives for what we enjoy today. Was it all for nothing?
Maybe Jill sees it as payback to Joe for all the things she knew was happening behind the scenes. She gets her 15 minutes and payback at the same time. I said “maybe” because Jill seems like she’s such a narcissist that she can’t see anything but Jill. Now we know what she and Joe had in common. Two narcissists.
I'm ashamed to admit I was once a Bette Midler fan. But being gay, Bette worship was more or less a prerequisite to membership in the club. I was coerced. Once she started trashing Melania Trump -- for no good reason and in the most vile and juvenile ways -- I burned all her CD's and deleted all of her MP3's. I never want to hear the voice or even the name of that sawed off, bitter has-been so long as I live.
Bette Midler is one of the original 'nasty women'....I used to love Streisand years ago I tossed out all my Barbra Streisand's CD's as well for the same reason - a totally unhinged and privileged liberal - I can't even stand to hear her singing anymore
Another fabulous Friday edition, Sasha! Thank you!
The video of how they made ice cream in the 1830s brought back memories of my childhood as that is how we sometimes made ice cream in the 1940s and '50s.
My childhood years were spent on a small farm/ranch along the Niobrara River in northern Nebraska. I was the youngest of four. A rural, one-room school was the site of my education through the fifth grade. Our home and the little town of Ainsworth were separated by seventeen miles of bad road – several miles were merely trails through pastures that were often impassable during the harsh winters. In fact, during the Blizzard of '49 we were snowed-in for six weeks.
My parents’ efforts at making a go of it at ranching and farming were never prosperous. Through hard work we raised enough to subsist on; we didn’t require much hard cash. We had few utility bills other than for a small amount of kerosene. Our drinking and bathing water were gathered by a bucket at a spring pipe, our light was by kerosene lamp and our heat and cooking fuel was wood cut from the canyons and burned in our kitchen range and pot-bellied heating stove. We relieved ourselves at the outhouse some distance from the house and bathed in a washtub in the kitchen. Before my parents could finally afford a tractor, when I was four or five, the farming was done behind Topsy and Lady, a team of workhorses. Our first car, that I can recall, was a Model-A sedan that had seen years of hard service. Our automobiles were replaced, one after the next, with used ones that had become headaches for someone else. Except for selling a few calves or pigs each year, our limited source of cash was primarily from the few gallons of cream and dozens of eggs that we sold on each trip to town. Yet, we had pleasures, and one was ice cream.
We had no way to freeze ice, so we planned for next summer's treats during the winter before. My father had dammed up a creek and constructed a fishpond. In the winter, the water froze to a depth of perhaps a foot. Below the dam, my father constructed a wooden crib, perhaps ten feet on a side and open on the top. We would cut large blocks of ice with a handsaw, hoist them out of the water with hay hooks, slide them to the edge of the pond and slide them down a plank into the crib that we called the "icehouse". We kids would accompany our dad, in his old jalopy pickup, to a sawmill a few miles away and bring home loads of sawdust and chips. We covered each layer of ice in the icehouse with two or three inches of sawdust and then add another layer of ice until the icehouse was full or we had run out of usable ice.
When the strawberries were ripe the following summer, we would invite my grandparents who lived a mile upriver, dig ice out of the sawdust, make vanilla ice cream and top it with the fresh berries. It was worth every hour of labor from the winter before. We would devour a bowl, suffer through a terrific ice cream headache and beg for more.
Our ice cream freezer was not like the one in the video but was a large wooden bucket with a metal cannister inside. Inside the cannister was a paddle. It connected to a crank on the top. Mom would make the ice cream mixture and pour it into the cannister and put on the lid. Ice and coarse salt would be packed around the cannister. The crank was hooked up. We often covered the top with a layer of gunnysacks so we wouldn't freeze our fannies. One of us kids would sit on the freezer to keep it from wobbling while our grandfather or dad would crank the handle until it became nearly too stiff to turn. The ice cream was ready! Our reward for sitting on the freezer was often getting to lick the paddle.
My cousin who lived with my grandparents would sometimes walk down to our place to play with me and we would make ice cream for just the two of us. Our technique was similar to the video version. We used a large metal milk pail that we used for hand milking our cows and a gallon Karo syrup can. Karo syrup cans were like paint cans and used for all sorts of things. We used them, for example, for lunch buckets during the school year. Our ice cream mixture would go into the Karo can. We would tap down the lid, place it into the milk pail, surround it with ice and salt, and spin it back and forth like the lady did in the video. Those are sweet memories.
Sometimes after a hailstorm we would quickly scurry around and gather enough hailstones to make ice cream and not need to visit the icehouse. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. When life gives you hailstorms, make ice cream!
Raleigh, that was a truly wonderful story. I am amazed at how keen your memory is and how well you were able to write about it. And even more impressive to me is how gracefully you described a very hard working life with none of today’s luxuries. I hope you will write more and if you have written a book or have your own Substack, please let me know. Thank-you.
Thank you for the kind words. I'm thinking of starting a Substack although haven't yet. I did write a book published in 2002, "Good Times in the Badlands" that you can find on Amazon. It describes my good fortune at the age of 16 to work on a field crew for the American Museum of Natural History (NYC) for seven summers during my high school and college years. It may not be of interest to many as it was done for the widow of the paleontologist who hired me. But who knows?
My wife was from NC and her family made snow cream. Whenever it snowed here in Texas (which is seldom) her first thought was to say, "let's make snow cream!"
I am from NC too, and I remember snow cream. Then in the late 50s they wouldn't allow us to make it due to the nuclear testing. They felt the snow may have been contained radioactive fallout.
Mehdi’s childish response regarding Glenn’s defense of Matt was hilarious. “Bye Glenn”. Reminiscent of how the queens in West Hollywood react to a well reasoned argument. “Talk to the hand.”
"If only the GOP had more power, which they don’t." Be design as the republican party has stated "we make more money when our guys lose" - Justin Riemer, Chief Legal Counsel for the RNC. The globalist GOP donor base moved our industrial might to Communist China long ago for easy bonus money and now they are in a very bad situation where they doubled down by removing their greatest threat - an America First president. He disrupted their trillions and they will do anything to shut us up.
The 100 year march 'through the institutions' by the Marxists is here and it will take a lot of time to undo, if it can be undone. Start local, although Cali will be very tough.
Thanks for the link. Now I understand why I never spent much time at Politico. But it was a worthwhile read, because it provided a window into the malevolent mind of a leftist. Please pardon me now, I feel a little nauseous.
It's in the valley that we grow. Epictetus — 'Circumstances don't make the man, they only reveal him to himself.' Lord Jesus, I am grateful for the deposit of faith 🥰✝️🌹
Bring it home brother! I love you but most of the time I don’t understand what point you are making about the posted essay. What’s your favorite Van Morrison song?
Good day Brother ✝️🌹🇺🇸 Caravan. So many great songs however. Bright Side of the Road and Full Force Gale run neck and neck. Enjoy your day 🍻 Spent May 2022 in Dublin, Belfast, Galway, Cork and ClareMorris. 🇮🇪
Like this on Friday night. But let me submit "Wavelength" as a better Van Morrison tune. Of course, there are many to choose from. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCptjDrd8SU
The silliness of the rich Midler and Frum griping about having to pay $8 to post their drivel on Twitter is worth the price. I subscribe to at least half a dozen or more, Substack accounts and am happy to support the platform.
Insert Donald Trump Jr instead of Hunter Biden, and tell me you would be saying that Wikipedia cast some doubt on the situation. We all know what would happen if the situation were reversed. How about a little common sense as a source?

Behold the power of the mass media. And its hold over a docile and easily manipulated populace.
All while hiding the real news/truth and pushing propaganda. MSM just an arm of the DNC.
And all are under the thumb of the administrative state.
How do we release the grip of the media? Because no doubt, their power-grip has dire consequences.
Turn off the television and start reading lots of different Substacks. :)
