Dear Madame Zoltar

Hello my dears! How are you?  Better than the State of the Union, I hope.  As usual, Trump worked the crowd for applause, but little agreement,  As far as I see it, nothing's changed.  Declaration of a National Emergency is now the hammer that Trump raises against his "enemies" in Congress.  Can the Democrats fight that?  How?  They'll say that Trump is not competent to make such decisions alone.  So what?  Can Congress block a Declaration of a National Emergency?  Back and forth it goes, but nothing ever seems to get done.

How about locally?  Are we still going to have to "feed the meter"?  Even though it costs more to maintain them than they bring in?  Hmm, I wonder who has their thumbs in this pie?  We'll have to wait to see who squeals the loudest.  Crying counts.  However, no throwing of shoes.

The Sandy Weidner debacle continues.  Judge Eugene G. is still keeping some stuff secret, or so he says.  May he join Judge Piontek.  However, Judge Eugene deserves permanent disbarment.  So does the Bearded Lady sitting in the City Attorney's office.  What a bunch of crooks.  Fie upon thee!

Oh my, Foxconn farted last week and the stink wafted everywhere.  Eventually, Foxconn representatives had to reassure Trump himself.  A lot of people still don't trust them and expect Foxconn to "walk out" on us sooner or later.  Let's hope not.  Darn, the Chinese are so inscrutable.  Wait till a giant robot rises from the Foxconn site, shooting laser beams and stomping on everything.  That'll teach us to trust the yellow menace again.

As soon as I saw Foxconn executives shaking hands with then-Governor Walker, I knew we were in trouble.  They took him for a ride.  And he was so proud of it.  Foxconn: Blessing or Curse?

How about Lee Enterprise's purchase of the Kenosha Daily news?  I feel sorry for Kenosha readers,,,

From the Huffington Post: "Scientists Discover Giant Hole Beneath Rapidly Melting Antarctic Glacier."  The hole, however, is not as big as the holes in the heads and hearts of some of our politicians.

That's all for today, boys and girls.  It's the political edition.  

I love you all.  madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com 

Watch out for the ice out there.  Winter brings on so many challenges. Please help your neighbor if you can.
