It’s technically a day late, but you’re invited to share your predictions in the comments.
How many Members of Congress refused to attend tonight's speech because they do not support Zelenskyy's Ukraine? Important to know this and why.

I realize that not everyone is a fan of Tulsi Gabbard, accusing her of being an opportunist. Similarly, some accuse Tucker Carlson of being controlled opposition. I don’t trust any media or political figure wholeheartedly; think “skeptical optimist”. But when a person says things that resonate with me, I do appreciate them.
Here’s a discussion between these two, which was published Tuesday morning.
Further to the recent “Head Girls” post, here’s a follow-up of how incredibly corrupted the American military has become surrounding Covid.
Keep the following fact in mind for future Trivial Pursuit games.

Please show me how Tucker Carlson is wrong.
Some of you might not appreciate what these two gentlemen have to say but it’s very interesting nonetheless. By all accounts, they are not woke, not Putin stooges, not fans of the globalist elites, and exceptionally knowledgeable about what’s really going on in the world.
The patience of the British people is quickly coming to an end. Will Liz Truss still be PM at year’s end?
Well worth a watch. If true, then the Biden & EU regimes are completely out of control.
Salena Zito has written an interesting article about South Dakota governor, Kristi Noem:
In June, Gov. Kristi Noem raised eyebrows with a campaign ad that showed her riding horseback across an expanse of grasslands as she told voters to “Saddle Up … We’re Just Getting Started.” The commercial was pushed out on Facebook — not just to voters in her own state, but to the people living in key presidential primary states including New Hampshire, Nevada and Iowa.
It immediately sparked talk that the Republican was running for president in 2024.
Watching Noem enter a local business near the state Capitol, the governor exudes all the swagger of a no-nonsense rancher in worn jeans, a cowboy hat and boots. But on the subject of a presidential run, she is coy.
Diplomacy Watch: Did Boris Johnson help stop a peace deal in Ukraine?
Russia and Ukraine may have agreed on a tentative deal to end the war in April, according to a recent piece in Foreign Affairs.
“Russian and Ukrainian negotiators appeared to have tentatively agreed on the outlines of a negotiated interim settlement,” wrote Fiona Hill and Angela Stent. “Russia would withdraw to its position on February 23, when it controlled part of the Donbas region and all of Crimea, and in exchange, Ukraine would promise not to seek NATO membership and instead receive security guarantees from a number of countries.”
The news highlights the impact of former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s efforts to stop negotiations, as journalist Branko Marcetic noted on Twitter. The decision to scuttle the deal coincided with Johnson’s April visit to Kyiv, during which he reportedly urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to break off talks with Russia for two key reasons: Putin cannot be negotiated with, and the West isn’t ready for the war to end.

The massive defeat of Liz “Abraham” Cheney last night signaled a much larger defeat for Bush-Cheney-Romney:
Liz Cheney’s thumping defeat in her bid for renomination for Wyoming’s sole seat in the House of Representatives signals again the utter and total defeat of the Bush-Cheney-Romney era of the Republican Party. The neoconservative period of GOP dominance ended when Donald Trump trounced the field during the 2016 primary season. But the avatars of that political tendency — in favour of military adventurism and “free markets” — keep appearing like ghosts at the feast to rattle their chains and insist on being seated above the salt.

Can the UK Tories find an actual … conservative as their leader?!?
The tragedy in Uvalde, Texas continues to get worse:
The City of Uvalde does not appear to want to answer questions on the school shooting that occurred on May 24 and stole the lives of 19 children and two teachers. To that end, they have hired a private law firm to argue that they have no obligation to release those records. This comes as journalists and parents were prevented from attending a meeting where surveillance footage from that fateful day was shown.
Lawyers for the town argued that the records, including body cam footage from officers, photos, 911 calls, emails, text messages, criminal records, and additional materials, could include “highly embarrassing information,” according to a letter obtained by Vice. The city has received 148 public records requests, and argues they should not have to respond to any of them. Concerns have mounted over police mishandling of the situation.
The Democrats have long had the well deserved moniker of “The Evil Party”. The Republicans have been known as “The Stupid Party”. Here’s but one example why:
