"Instead, the UK, US, and Australia are forming a Super Very Best Friends Alliance and the Aussies get new, very quiet, nuclear subs as a way to counter China — but we’re not supposed to say that last part out loud.

"This is a good deal. The French can pound cheese."

Spot on. Erick. Also, the long term maintenance costs of a properly designed and built nuclear sub are less than for a diesel=electric one. Good call, Australia!

Also, the southern border's no longer the elephant in the corner of the room. It's up and about, knocking things over and breaking the furniture - and with even more "migrants" on the way, the elephant can only grow more aggressive in its behavior.

I totally agree with your assessment of McConnell and McCarthy. Senate Republicans should embrace McConnell as their leader because of what he can accomplish, while House Republicans should find another, worthier Congressman to replace McCarthy in the leadership role. McCarthy is a total opportunist who bends with the wind.

Bone to pick...I'm probably simple minded but I'm tired of all this bashing of Mitch McConnell. You rightly pointed out that he knows the insides of Washington better than anybody and, dammit, he can get things done. So why do we want him gone for somebody who has to cut their teeth on learning what to do and building collaborators to get it done. Let's face it, new people ain't always good people and they take too much time to figure stuff out.

Everybody loves to hate Mitch McConnell but he's got more done for Conservatives than any of the incompetent boobs who hate on him so much. He basically manufactured at least one Supreme Court seat. And you are right on on Kevin McCarthy. Lightweight opportunist kissing up to a loser former President.

McCarthy vs Pelosi is not a contest - we desperately need someone with a higher IQ and more of a backbone.

Love the line about McCarthy ... an overly ambitious lightweight ... more concerned about his own vanity!
