(1154) Almost afternoon all. Just back from my medical review and I’m afraid I have bad news for you … unless hit by a bus, nuke or three letter agency, I’m on your hands for a fair while still … sorry to annoy. (1234)
A certain unpleasantness recently


Yyyeeessssss, that was all well and fine, except for that clown coming in and trivialising it with the Steely Dan number … always has to be one, doesn’t there:

a) Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, supports Elon Musk, who has been summoned by the French justice system:
“Macron’s France is losing its legitimacy by turning criminal investigations into weapons to repress freedom of expression and privacy. The US Department of Justice refused to assist France in its investigation of Elon Musk, calling the case politically motivated….
b) Canada. The Montreal School Services Centre has dismissed nearly 150 support staff members who refused to comply with Quebec’s new secularism law. Among them are dozens of daycare educators, lunchtime supervisors, special education technicians, and attendants for students with disabilities who wear religious headscarves.
c) France. Lagny-sur-Marne (77): a public high school hosts a “youth branch” of Amnesty International which conducts pro-migrant and pro-veil propaganda there….
d) France. 73.8% of Les Républicains members voted in favor of Bruno Retailleau for the 2027 presidential election. This resounding victory is reminiscent of the May 2025 vote at the LR Congress, where 74.31% of votes went to Retailleau and the remainder to his rival, Laurent Wauquiez….
1. Going to open with ZeroHedge

In a terse, one-paragraph statement released this afternoon, the Pentagon announced the immediate departure of Secretary of the Navy John C. Phelan, effective immediately.
Undersecretary of the Navy Hung Cao has been elevated to Acting Secretary of the Navy. The announcement, issued by Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell (Assistant to the Secretary of War for Public Affairs), offered no explanation for the move and simply thanked Phelan for his service “on behalf of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Deputy.”

Probably time for a radio play … one of the good ones. Yes, we’ve probably had this twice already but all the usual elements seem present and the nice thing is that, even knowing the outcome, it invites relistening. Sometimes it’s nice to just listen … give the eyes a rest. Crawford Logan and Gerda Stevenson.
