The Daily Cartoon and Live Briefing: Friday, February 25, 2022

Today at the Editor’s glance: Weather: Partly cloudy in the morning then clearing. Patchy fog in the morning. Visibility one quarter mile or less at times in the morning. Highs in the mid 80s. South winds 5 mph. Friday Night: Mostly clear. Patchy fog after midnight. Lows in the upper 50s. Southeast winds 5 mph in the evening becoming light.

On Free For All Fridays on WNZF, host David Ayres welcomes Brig. Gen. Ernie Audino (Ret.) of Rep. Mike Waltz’s office, and a frequent contributor to Fox News and the Washington Times, to discuss Russia, Ukraine, cyberthreats, supply chain disruptions and what it means to Flagler County, along with a legislative update from Rep. Paul Renner, starting a little after 9 a.m. with my commentary on the similarities between Russian and American military adventurism.

Notably: Anthony Burgess, one of the almost-great writers of mid- to late-20th century England, the author of “A Clockwork Orange” and the Enderby novels, a failed composer (as he himself admitted often, to his great chagrin) and the author of some 50 books, all from his late 30s on, after he was told that a brain tumor would leave him less than a year to live (so he got cracking on three novels, to leave a little money to his cheating wife), was born on this day in 1917. He died in 1993.

“Punishments are almost always arbitrary, which is a great defect in jurisprudence. But this defect opens the way for clemency and compassion, and this compassion is no other than the strictest justice, for it would be horrible to punish a youthful indiscretion as poisoners and parricides are punished. A sentence of death for an offence which deserves nothing more than correction is no other than an assassination committed with the sword of justice.”

–Voltaire, from “Blasphemy,” in “Questions sur l’Encyclopedie” (1770). .

    All Trump-said was an observation that Biden was weak, which he is, and Putin took advantage of his weakness.

    Just talked to a guy yesterday who is originally from Ukraine and his daughter still lives there and he is still able to communicate with her (for now). She expressed her horror at the attack to him (he told me) but still he is a Trump supporter. Just goes to show how brainwashed and in denial Trump supporters are. Genius.

    You are wrong “bob”. . . here is the actual full quote:

    ” I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, “This is genius.” Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful.

    So, Putin is now saying, “It’s independent,” a large section of Ukraine. I said, “How smart is that?” And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy… I know him very well. Very, very well.”

    Sherry: no surprise coming from “bob” to take advantage of a weakness equates to killing innocent people? That’s both crazy and sick!

    Good Morning Gina and Coyote. . . Thanks for your continued thoughtful support of facts and the truth.

    As derived from the bible: “the truth will set you free”. Just think about the hypocrisy of the cult members screaming for “freedom” while mindlessly posting Fox talking points that trash the actual facts and truth at every turn.

    Seek “TRUTH”, and Joy, Peace and Love from within! Have a wonderful weekend!
