President Trump Sends Troops To the Border

Frangela was (or is it “were”) arguing amongst themselves that maybe Trump has syphilis or something and is showing so many indications of insanity in his many tweets lately.  Never was there such a disruptive Easter weekend.  He goes off on the immigration issue while talking with little kids at the White House Easter egg hunt.  He’s been carrying on about how he’s against DACA legislation now and how the democrats blew their chance.  He talks about these caravans of people coming through Mexico all knocking at the door and demanding admittance.  The truth is that some 400 of these have been fingered by the Mexican audhorities already and sent back to their country or origen.  He’s also going on and on about Amazon and the stock price has been driven down and Amazon has lost a lot of money all because of the words of the President.  This action might even be illegal.  The FTC should look into it.  Then he talks about stationing the US Army at the border.  President Trump will sign a proclamation Wednesday sending National Guard troops to the southern border to ramp up security efforts, the administration announced, after days of warnings from the president about the dangers of illegal immigration.  The National Guard will be sent to assist Border Patrol agents until legislation is passed to close “loopholes” that the Trump administration says allow certain undocumented immigrants to stay in the country and the “catch-and-release” policy is ended, according to a person familiar with the expected White House proposal. Catch and release is a practice of releasing undocumented immigrants from custody while they await their hearings. The troops will be in a support role, doing tasks such as road development and intelligence gathering, according to the person familiar with the plan who would discuss the unreleased details only on the condition of anonymity.  It’ll all be leaked tomorrow. 

 Today is the fiftieth anniversary of Dr King’s assassination in Memphis.  Yes, we all would like to live a long life.  Longevity has its place.   Thom Hartman thinks James Earl Ray shot him because he was paid by Lester Maddox or other racists in Atlanta.  I think we all need to spend the day reflecting on the life of Dr King today.   Some say it was an FBI conspiracy to drop security right at that key moment.   Killing Martin Luther King and RFK really changed the course of history. 

Stephanie’s dog Max died so Stephanie was not at work.  Instead Frangela filled in.  They have never mentioned Fred in all of this drama about Max.  I think Fred was the prettier of the two dogs anyhow.Maybe Fred is already dead.  I don't think he was given away.   

Abigail continued to lie about Gabriel murdering Andre.  She did it as a “strategic move” she tells Stephan.  She did it to “protect” her other personalities, whom she seems to value over her friendship with the real Gabriel.  Lats get past this light ray.  I think Justin was wise to want to continue to cross examine Abigail when it appeared she was having some “personality lapse”.  If she is made to appear psychological unstable to the jury, all the better.  D A Trask wanted a recess.  However, Justin stabbed Gabriel in the back by not putting her immediately on the stand when he had the perfect opportunity to dispel these lies.  He claims that “The state has a weak case they haven’t proven”.   The state’s case is anything but weak.   We already have the real Gabriel trying to dispose of incrimidating evidence.  Now we have testimony of a confession.   There was also a lot of talk about the paternity of Lani’s baby.  Nora showed up at a quarter to two.  She had me work the plunger to clean out the sink drain.  I think I was successful.  A lot of sludge came up.  Nora left the plunger here.  Of course she left the sponge also in case I get the urge to clean the sink.  Physically I’m feeling somewhat better now.  After two days of illness it’s about time.  Gabby was out and around the courtyard for snack time.  People gave her treats.  I had two Oreos and a half graham cracker from Rico and a red punch.  Somebody said Gabby got a good bath.    Before Bill decides he wants to wake up and watch the 3:00 news I better turn on Norman Goldman.  

 Sixty Minutes had Barrenboin or whoever this Jewsish symphony conductor is that has all of these Iranians and Palestinians in the orchestra and even works with a youth orchestra.   He is 76 now.  The first episode was a thing on a new type of brain damage suffered by our veterans when they are hit by a high explosive bomb.  It sounds out energy rays that scar the brain.   One guy was perfectly normal in 2012 but had a psychotic break and eventually took his life in 2017.  It’s like his own mind was at war with him.  That’s what psychosis does to you.  Then I went for medication and Kate took forever to get her meds.  Then it was “Jesus Christ Superstar” and I enjoyed watching that live performance.  Jesus does make reference to the city of Jerusalem being “doomed”, so they slip in sideways a little prophecy.  There were minor lyric changes and additions to what’s on the record.  I didn’t watch it to the end however because they put increasingly frequent commercial breaks in it.
