Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts

Oh, my. That's a blog post from 10/3/13,There was a brief period of time when the Messenger was under different ownership. Ten years ago was part of that time frame. (Side note: I couldn't find out what happened to the lady in Midland County.)

• Trump acted crazy outside the courtroom yesterday. In addition to saying the judge should be disbarred and arrested, he said, "you ought to go after this attorney general.” Yes, another threat. Things are getting really, really weird.

• A car-jacking last night by "three armed assailants." The car was stolen but there were no injuries.
  
  
  
• Republican Infighting: The crazy and attention seeking Rep. Matt Gaetz followed through on his threat to try to remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker. There must now be a vote either today or tomorrow.

• And then the two acted like Fourth Graders on Twitter: 
  
  
  
• Major League Baseball is not a serious sport when they put playoff games on during a weekday.
