King Charles III -- and Harry +disinformation (update)

In the Daily Mail (a publication that makes the New York Post sound like a left-leaning rag), it was reported that Harry arrived on a private jet, there was even a picture of a gray G-V which would have cost Harry something like $200,000 (about $10,000 per fight hour for 20 hours of flying).  Today is coronation day (didn't watch, but saw pictures), but Harry was there, in the third row -- which I thought was about right, next to some very friendly cousins (one had rented his cottage for a year or two during the Pandemic -- she now live in Spain).

The funny bit is that Harry actually flew on a commercial flight (American Airlines actually).  This was not reported in the Daily Mail, but it was in the Times because people obviously recognized him (they even had the flight number).  

So let's be clear, the Daily Mail "made up" the story that Harry flew private and used fake images (probably stock images anyway) since he was flying commercial, and he was seen in terminal 3.  

Considering the book he wrote, I thought that the third row was kind of nice, but apparently, he only spoke to his cousins and no one else...now the Daily Mail indicates that Harry has been invited to "tea or some lunch this afternoon".

My guess is that Harry already has his flight booked his family is waiting for him and I am rather certain that he doesn't feel that being a lawn ornament -- where probably no one will want to talk to him (why take a chance with Harry who lives in California...).  My guess is, he's already at on his way to the airport to catch his 3:45 pm flight home.  

Plus the coronation is not about him, "right stage exit" seems to be the best option for him.  He can always fly back on a less emotionally charged day and sit down with the King and his brother....


Joke:  What the lip reader really translated


Jake Brooksbank:  Hey Harry are you?

Harry:  Fine Jack, thanks 

Jack:  you staying for this whole thing today?

Harry:  Nah, going home tonight

Jack:  really what time is your flight?

Harry:  3:45

Jack:  You are cutting it close Harry, how are you going to make it?

Harry:  No prob, got a police escort, they are so happy to see the back of me they are giving me a priority exit

Jack:  Good because you know unless you are in the first two rows, you are a lawn ornament

Harry:  laughing and pointing to his uncle( Andrew), Yeah we're the riffraff for that show, still I was there for dad so that's something.  

Jack:  When are you coming back?

Harry: No plans mate, we are very busy with the kids and everything, how about you guys?

Jack:  Back to work Monday and SIL and husband are flying back to Spain Sunday night.  

Harry:  I think you got the good end of the stick!

Jack and Harry laughing


What the Daily Mail reported

Prince Harry was very disappointed not to be included in the weekend festivities and left with his tail between his legs -- plus we hate is wife, oops we are not supposed to say that out loud

what people get wrong about tariffs

 The issue is simple. What percentage of the economy is dependent on tariff goods? The truth, is that the US economy is far more closed than people understand. People genuinely believe that all manufacturing has ceased to exist in the United States all given to China on the altar of woke policy the truth can be further from That statement. Only about 15% of US GDP is related to foreign trade. Of that amount, slightly more than half is from Canada in Mexico. And half of that is energy. What that means, is that about 7% of US GDP is tariff dependent. The proof in the pudding, is how little money tariff generates. People think that 30 or 50 billion is a lot it’s not in an economy that has $3 trillion. The impact on the US economy will be less visible but not absent. Inflation hasn’t occurred yet first because tests have hardly started to bite, but more importantly it’s such a small percent of the economy. Now certain things are critical. The rare earth metals from China were critical....

Trump and Venezuela...

The US now owns Venezuela…and not in a good way.  America is not known for its nation building skills, and yet it now owns the disaster that is Venezuela.   Starvation and exodus are the natural progression.   In addition it will become a haven for narco-terrorists, more so than it already was. I am sure that Trump and his friends really thought that little attack very well…I guess that he will now attack Iran now.

Demographics

 I am preparing a kind of family tree for our children so that they know where they came from.  In my family I am the only survivor, although my brother and sister died recently they were both in their seventies (a story I told already).    It was a fun process, but it provided more than that.  First, I married relatively young I was 26 when I married and nearly 30 when our first child was born.   I was looking at my ancestors.  On my mother's side, she had 6 siblings, Four died before the age of 30, two in war, and two from illnesses.  Only she and a single sister survived.   The two boys had a child each but they died in WWII, and the other sister died as an infant.   what is interesting is that every one of my mother's siblings had children in their early 20s.   I know that my mom was hardly 20 when my brother was born.    What is remarkable is that among our friends, we are the only ones to have fou...
