The Presidential Debate scheduled for Thursday has been cancelled. The “non-partisan” presidential debate commision dropped the town hall style event after several embarrassing gaffes this week. First, they changed the event to a virtual one without bothering to ask either of the campaigns. Next, the moderator for that event C-SPAN’s Steve Scully got caught playing twitter footsie with former Trump aide Anthony Scaramucci. When that was outed, Scully blamed the tweet on hackers, because of course he did. How Scully, a former Biden intern and clear never-Trumper got the nod, I’ll never know.


Haven’t heard much about the plot to kidnap and possibly murder Gretchen Whitmer have you? Turns out, there are far more connections to the left than there are to the right. Go figure. . . .


North Korea held a military parade in honor of the 75th anniversary of the (mis)rule of the Workers party. It contained most of the same stuff we’ve grown accustomed to seeing from the North Korean regime, battalions of troops passing in review, formations of tanks and IFV, MLRS systems and the like. Two things stood out to me. First were the super awesome MiG 29 and SU 25 fighters with neon lightstrips.

Second, was the giant ICBM and 11 axle TEL it was mounted on. Unlike some of the ICBM displayed at past mil parades, this one looks like a complete system.
