Underpaid soldiers deserve a break today, and the Pentagon responds
/$20 monthly “economic bonus” to be given to all troops. “That’s a complete McDonald’s ‘Big Mac Meal’, once a month”, Def. Secretary Austin crowed. “Who’s got it better than them?”

"The November elections will determine which path we take.. it is seldom a dramatic event or attack that lets fascism in the door. The violence comes later, after they are voted in."

91 Cherry Valley Road, four acres and priced at $3.950 million is reported pending along with an adjoining 4-acre lot at 0 Highland Farm, priced separately at $1.950. Same buyer for both.
280 immigrants being crammed into a town of 165.
Just a few days ago I wrote about Springfield, Ohio, population 55,000, being swamped by the arrival of 20,000 Haitians. Ireland and its Green premier are determined to show Springfield how to do it properly.
Via Remix (emphasis added):
In a strategy seen in many Western countries, Ireland’s government is looking to move more and more migrants into the countryside, with one of the latest schemes focusing on shifting 280 asylum seekers to Dundrum, a village in Tipperary County with a population of only 165.
The move has sparked outrage from the local community, which is embroiled in controversy over the new refugee center. If all migrants are relocated as planned, their population would be 70 percent higher than the local population.
The government plans to convert the Dundrum House hotel into an accommodation complex that will house 280 migrants, with similar plans sparking widespread protests and riots in the Dublin suburb of Coolock just yesterday, with locals there setting fire to construction equipment and battling with police.
Dundrum residents have called for “common sense” in determining the scale of local accommodation plans. Local politicians are also enraged by the proposal, noting that the town does not have the resources or infrastructure to house so many new people, especially when local services are already stretched to their limit.
Independent city councilor Liam Browne said he was “dismayed” by the lack of communication with residents, while Fine Gael city councilor Declan Burgess described it as “deeply concerning” that the community is kept uninformed.
However, pro-immigration Integration Minister and new Green Party leader Roderic O’Gorman showed no signs of backing down. He said the Department of Integration plans to proceed with the accommodation at the Dundrum House hotel despite local protests.
Incredibly lengthy post that is just chock full of highlights of that nutty dimwit, and you’ll enjoy every minute of it.

16 Dandy Drive, Cos Cob, has been unable to find a buyer since May, when it began at $2.350 million. Its owner, astutely concluding that it was the price that was causing buyers to hesitate to extend an offer, has today chopped that price down to $2.340 million.
Brilliant.
In case you're wondering, AWFL is not a typo, it's an acronym and it means: Affluent White Female Liberal
And AWFLs as a rule are some of the most condescending, annoying, obnoxious women on the planet, especially when you catch them out in the wild saying something stupid like this:
Fellow white ladies. Get over it. Whatever it is, get past it right now. We’re gonna elect a black woman president and I promise you it’s gonna be amazing. Get on board, no reservations.

Right? We're sure, 'Don't worry little black women, we leftist white women will make sure you get the job,' would play really well in Democrat circles.
*The rule of bad puns is to not make one worse by trying to explain it, so I won’t, but those readers who remember their Crim Law 101 class and, perhaps, Willie Brown, will get this. And no doubt you’ll be sorry you did.
$3.675 million: that’s heap big wampum
8 Tower Lane, currently priced at $3.675 million, reports a contract. It’s an extremely rare lot for crowded little Old Greenwich: 1.65 acres in the R-12 zone, and the 1900 house itself has great charm, but its overly-aspirational initial price of $5.2 million in February was a definite turn-off.
