As I get older and less receptive, I am saddened to note the increasing importance of Schadenfreude as part of my life mission.
Despite my better judgement, I spent some time yesterday watching highlights of US Attorney General Bondi's Congressional Reality Show on TV. American politics is really none of my business, but decency and the future of the planet are certainly worthy of focus.
If
the facts are against you, argue the law.
If the law is against you,
argue the facts.
If the law and the facts are against you, pound the
table and yell like hell
― Carl Sandburg
It seems to me that, years from today, people all over the world may remember that there was once a very strange woman who postured and smirked and overacted her way through a very serious, very noble and very visible forum, and committed the most public career suicide in history.
I can only assume that she is getting paid an awful lot of money and has the promise of a very big piece of cherry cake. I doubt whether anyone will remember her name.
Speaking of names, I have a little list of them, and I have a special bottle of wine put aside for Prizegiving Day.
