In Court: Drug Court convenes before Circuit Judge Terence Perkins at 10 a.m. in Courtroom 401 at the Flagler County courthouse, Kim C. Hammond Justice Center 1769 E Moody Blvd, Bldg 1, Bunnell. Drug Court is open to the public.

Palm Coast’s Beautification and Environmental Advisory Committee meets at 5 p.m. at City Hall. The committee will hear an update on the Central Park Master Plan and on climate change.

The Flagler Beach City Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall, 105 S outh2nd Street in Flagler Beach. Commissioners will consider approving the site plan for the hotel planned in place of the Farmers’ Market, where a hotel used to rise until the 1970s. The city has high hopes for the new hotel. Commissioners will consider hiring a consultant for a study on impact fees–the same consultant who just completed the study for the school district, and took an unfear beating over it by county commissioners who consider themselves better experts than Tischler Bise’s consultants. Flagler Beach Commissioners, who tend to be more humble, will also consider an ordinance that would regulate, and restrict, the display of merchandise outside of stores. This is an issue favored by Commissioner Jane Mealy. Commissioners will also hear an application for development of a car wash on State Road 100 and John Anderson Highway, Watch the meeting at the city’s YouTube channel here.

Now this: Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is not Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his wife singing the old “Endless Love” ballad Lionel Richie wrote in 1981. The video has been making the rounds of Facebook and other social mierda sites, part of the pardonable effusions of endless admiration extended Zelenskyy, who was in fact a performer before he was forced to face down the tyrant from the east.

And for those too young to remember, or too blinded by the 2014 remake, this was the original movie Richie wrote it for:

“Lincoln was fond of asserting that the Declaration of Independence, when it said that all men are created equal, included the Negro. He believed the Negro was probably inferior to the white man, he kept repeating, but in his right to eat, without anyone’s leave, the bread he earned by his own labor, the Negro was the equal of any white man. Still he was opposed to citizenship for the Negro. How any man could be expected to defend his right to enjoy the fruits of his labor without having the power to defend it through his vote, Lincoln did not say. In his Peoria speech he had himself said: “No man is good enough to govern another man, without that man’s consent.” In one of his magnificent private memoranda on slavery Lincoln argued that anyone who defends the moral right of slavery creates an ethic by which his own enslavement may be justified. (“Fragment on Slavery,” 1854.) But the same reasoning also applies to anyone who would deny the Negro citizenship. It is impossible to avoid the conclusion that so far as the Negro was concerned, Lincoln could not escape the moral insensitivity that is characteristic of the average white American.”

–From a footnote in Richard Hofstadter’s “The American Political Tradition and the Men Who Made It” (1948).
