Yours portly is late to the party with this one, but, hey, is it ever truly too late to celebrate a full-scale immolation?

Or, as the title indicates, a defenestration, which is just a fancy way of saying, “throwing someone out of a window.”  That is very much how the vice presidential debate between Senator J.D. Vance and Governor Tim Walz felt a few weeks ago.  On the one side stood a mighty hillbilly culture warrior, ready to stand astride the debate stage like a Colossus.  On the other was a mealy-mouthed Elmer Fudd, who looked Elmer BeFuddled the entire time.

I am a high school history (and music!) teacher; while we do know a lot of stuff, that doesn’t mean we know how to apply it.  There is knowing a thing, and there is knowing it.  One of the biggest wakeup calls is going from the theoretical and abstract realm of the classroom and entering the real world; it becomes apparent pretty quickly that all that theory and knowledge amount to precious little if they can’t be equipped or adapted to handle Reality.

  1. These past 3 weeks since Kamala Harris has been on a friendly media blitz has been joyous for the Trump campaign for sure. I’ve been following Kamala Harris’s fake family heritage scandal on Candance Owens YouTube channel. Proving, just because something is written in a book, doesn’t make it true.

  2. Since I found out that the UK Labour Party have sent activists to America to campaign for Harris, it’s made me more optimistic for a Republican presidency. No one likes to see foreign interference in domestic elections. The UK despised Obama’s interference on the Brexit referendum and Americans won’t like left wing Brits getting involved in theirs.

    What some here are trying to ascertain is whether the higher ups in Labour signed off on this using taxpayer funds. If they did, what happens in the States will be the least of their concerns.
