   Did you see Beckom’s comic today? I can’t believe that one flew past his editors or the censors.

   File once again under you can’t make this…stuff…up. Dear Leader hosted French President Macron at the Governor’s Ball. As entertainment, the US Army Chorus entered the room singing the epilogue from the musical, Les Miserables – with the following lyrics:

   “Do you hear the people sing?Singing the song of angry men?It is the music of the peopleWho will not be slaves again!

   When the beating of your heartEchoes the beating of the drumsThere is a life about to startWhen tomorrow comes!

   Will you join in our crusade?Who will be strong and stand with me?Beyond the barricadeIs there a world you long to see?Then join in the fightThat will give you the right to be free!"

   A musical based on Victor Hugo’s 1862 novel about a REVOLT against the French KING in the 1830s. The song, now considered a protest anthem, is about a social revolution in which French proletarians stand against the ruling class — in this case, an oppressive monarchy.

   Apparently 47 likes the song; also apparently, he doesn’t get the irony in the lyrics about his own current administration.

   How Macron did not laugh out loud, I’ll never know…

   One of my besties was a lawyer for SSA/SSI; she retired last May – I’m glad she got out in time.

   From December: "The lawyer helping Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pick federal health officials for the incoming Trump administration has petitioned the government to revoke its approval of the polio vaccine, which for decades has protected millions of people from a virus that can cause paralysis or death.

   That campaign is just one front in the war that the lawyer, Aaron Siri, is waging against vaccines of all kinds." [NYTimes, 12/13/24]

   No update on this aside from Mr. Siri claiming it was on behalf of a “client, and had nothing to do with Kennedy.”

   Uh-huh…
