Indy car races on D.C. streets? I suppose it's better than the tanks he had chewing them up, but it's too bad he isn't smart enough to understand how city streets work.

Too bad he can't be under one...

I forgot where I read it, but I heard the word "carnage" used about this race. I hope no one gets killed. 🙏

I read in Ron Filipkowski's Politics bulletin that they had to weld down manhole covers and remove some streetlights for this race.

I'd assume there are a lot of logistical and physical issues to be dealt with. Lots of money for no real benefits for any of us.

as despicable as we find trump's enablers, this one in particular is obviously suffering mental illness. I hope the focus shifts off of her and onto all his enablers and him, that have allowed this mess to go on without interference. With her level of mental illness & all the nat'l exposure it is not hard to imagine her committing suicide, which just might be considered as 'a solution' by her slave master. All of their lack of concern about nat'l security is apparently become nothing more than jealousy & disdain of their competitor. WHY WAS THIS OBVIOUS BREECH OF NAT"L SECURITY IGNORED FOR SO LONG BY ALL HIS BOOTLICKERS INCL HIS CABINET ? ... REPORTERS- they, too, should answer to this. All the kings horses & all the king's men couldn't put Dotard back together again. Justice can't come soon enough- they are on a rampage of destruction that will take decade(s) for our country to recover from, not to mention all their LOOTING- The Dotard must be impeached ASAP, along with his other top dogs- many of them should be prosecuted for their financial abuses of their offices.

According to legend, triumphant Roman Generals dressed in full regalia rode through the streets, while citizens would wave and cheer. But behind each General, a SLAVE stood close. The slave’s job was to keep repeating the words, “Memento Mori” (Remember you are MORTAL.) Accepting their mortality keeps most ambitious men in line, tuned to a virtuous legacy. Natalie Harp’s job is the opposite. She stands by her master to convince him he will live forever. Thus, the other “assurances” of immortality also accrue: the GOLD, the banners, the buildings, the thousand stupid petty trappings. Harp is disturbed and deranged, but her false idol is a tiny-minded psychopath who smirks while the entire world burns.

Did ANYBODY ask for these vanity events Trump is throwing? An Indy car race on DC streets? Good thing this country doesn't any real problems to solve...

Thanks Jim, those letters are creepy and cringey, Harp needs professional help. I didn't miss Melania at all. An Indy race through the streets of DC, gee what could possibly go wrong, stay tuned. SMH!

Harp continually apologizes. He must love that. Looks like poor self-esteem.

Jim, I realize that this Natalie Harp story is big news, however, in the humble opinion of this Canadian it is another deflection from all the really big issues which need to have constant attention by media such as yours. The orange menace's war in Iran, blocking the Strait of Hormuz and making gas prices skyrocket, the millions and millions of dollars being spent by this same orange menace's to engrandize himself by changing everything and slapping his name on everything. The horrendous things that ICE is doing. The deplorable assignments he is giving to his minions and the list goes on. So, while I agree this is an interesting/disturbing piece of info, I don't think so much time should be spent delving into it. I still love your substack and I'm especially enjoying your JAMM. Keep up the great work Jim.

I love the Harp Friction poster.

Winter gas pollutes the air more, so expect more air quality issues.

Trump thinks he's so smart and can con his way through everything. Melania, I believe disappeared because of the threat to her life from Iran not because her husband has a mistress. If she cared it should have been over Stormy. I've never witnessed a woman so debased publicly by her husband and still goes through it. A hooker never stops hooking when there's money to earn.
