Kamala Harris

In less than 100 hours the fight for the 2024 election has entirely changed.  Sunday's bombshell now looks like the only reasonable outcome as Biden's numbers were in freefall.   As I mentioned a week ago, people were no longer listening to him, but just watching for a fall in mental acuity.   

Sunday night Harris was obviously the favourite, for several reasons, first, she is already the #2 on the ticket, but also she has direct access to nearly $300 million in war chest reserves since the money was for a Biden/Harris presidential ticket.   On Monday Harris moved from "one of several" possible choices to the only game in town.  All the other potential challengers supported Vice President Harris' bid to replace Joe Biden.

Monday night it was announced that Ms Harris had raised nearly 100 million dollars, in less than 24 hours as the presumptive Democratic party nominee.   Tuesday she did her first stump speech and she killed it.  Vice President Harris had an annoying tick (she made a constant clicking sound with her mouth when speaking), well that's gone.   She sounded prepared, ready and to the Trump/Vance campaign very young.  Vice President Harris is two decades younger than Donald Trump.  Trump's game plan was to show him as the Alpha male to Joe Biden's frail posture.  That doesn't work with Vice President Harris.   

Trump's even bigger problem is that he is undoubtedly racist surrounded by racist white men, and they will attack Vice President Harris for being a black woman (it already started on Wednesday -- it was plain for all to see on Fox News, no dog whistle straight out anti-woman and anti-black).   Finally, Donald Trump has tried to block the transfer of cash from Biden/Harris to Harris/???, with the FEC in a lawsuit.  

The reality that Kamala Harris is walking into the Democratic convention as the presumptive nominee will make the convention boring, but it will make the election interesting.   The Trump campaign is trying to pivot, but their entire battle plan was built on Joe Biden, an old man.

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Farm; Half year performance

 People appear to be genuinely curious. 2024 has been a record first half for the farm.  The addition of high tunnels has greatly impacted our revenues.   While we expected Q1 profits to be higher, it really was the second quarter that produced the goods.  The terrible weather has greatly impacted the production of high-end vegetables. Energy costs are now very stable and have become a fixed variable especially now that our bio digesters are fully dialled in.   Replacing some of our pre-dryer equipment was covered under warranty, and the new equipment is far better at dealing with gas moisture, and much better steel!   Our diesel costs are what they are! Our biologist and ecologist devised a new planting plan for our high tunnels that greatly reduced pests, especially slugs.   We have seen a 90% decline in sluggs this year, resulting in better yields.   It seems that several plants act as natural repelants and if planted c...

Britain, France and Egypt

 The voters realize now that the Conservative Praty desire to return to 19th-century dominance has driven its hatred of the EU.  The voters realize now that departure from the EU has accelerated Britain's decline and may soon make it irrelevant.  At best it will have to kiss American arses to maintain its standing.  For this, the conservatives were punished.  The decline of Britain was inevitable, competition from Frankfurt and Germany in Finance was bound to grow.  The core of Europe (aka Germany) is aging quickly Macron seems to be winning his bet, the left alliance that won the legislative elections will not remain united for long, since they disagree on about everything.   The Far right though it was about to assume power is once again relegated to the back of the bus.   It may draw its own conclusions, but not all of these are good for France.  The far-right has won nearly 1/3rd of the electorate, that is not something to be ig...
