'm seeing something online. It's not a big trend yet, but it's going under the tag of black fatigue. Is that it? Black fatigue. But it's the idea that just people are getting tired of listening to black specific problems. And it does feel to me like this isn't the right moment for that. And you know, my take on it is I used to be extra interested in black American problems most of my adult life under the theory that if you could help the people who are in the deepest hole, that would be the best thing for the country. So if you could take somebody from can't get a job to got a job or can't get into college to got into college or doesn't have a good education to got a good education that you get enormous benefits, you know, better than if somebody got a 10% raise at the job they already had. So my thinking was, well, it just makes sense. I mean, it just makes sense that you would focus in that area because that's where the deepest problem is. You reverse that, you really get some good societal gains. But I'm just so tired of it all. And now I just think everybody's got problems. There's nobody with special problems. And so when I hear any group saying, "I've got special problems and you should give me some money." I just think I'm bored and I don't care. You're boring me and I don't care. Do they have a point? I don't care. Do they have a good historical argument for reparations? I don't care because everybody's got a good argument for why they should get some extra too. So do I. I've been discriminated against for 50 years. Do you care? No. Well, you don't care. Why should I care about anybody else? So no. I have some kind of fatigue. Don't care. But I think James Carville will be funny if he weighs in on this because if the Democrats don't have anything that's working, that's the worst time to throw this into the mix. It's just not going to get you any extra votes.

Well, according to the news, the EU is going to put new sanctions on Russia because Putin skipped the peace talks in Turkey. So poor little Zelensky went down to Turkey and he thought he was going to meet with Putin and then Putin just ghosted him, which to me is funny. It's funny that he ghosted him, but then he sent some low-level people and then they all said, "Well, this is worthless." So they just already ended the meeting. Trump has said that he's ready to meet with Putin to try to work things out, but apparently the EU is going to put some extra sanctions on Russia. So we'll see if that makes any difference. But it does suggest that the Trump approach of making all wars commercial wars, you know, if you want to be part of the world commercial system, you better stop your physical wars. But we'll see if Trump can get something done there.

In other news, Newsmax is reporting that Health and Human Services is going to stop advising COVID shots for kids and pregnant women. To which I said to myself, wait, they were still advising that? Are any of you surprised that they were still advising that? You don't have to be a doctor to know that that was a bad idea. You just have to be a little bit aware of the news. My god, really? And they haven't stopped yet. They've just announce
