Minions’ opinions?

Keith Olbermann has a fascinating take on the whole SignalGate episode:

The reason Trump’s Team of Idiot Rivals sent each other their war plans on Signal wasn’t to keep them secret from the Senate, or from future investigations it was to keep them secret from TRUMP.

He goes on to suggest that
There WAS a work-around – AROUND TRUMP. They are CUTTING TRUMP OUT.

On the one hand, maybe there’s some good news here; the people around the orange baby are recognizing that it (the baby) is good for nothing. On the other hand, these are absolutely not the people — not even the kinds of people — that should be anywhere near positions of significant power.



About Me

I’m Pete Harbeson, a writer (among other things) located near Boston, Massachusetts. In addition to writing my own content, I’ve learned to translate for my loquacious and opinionated pup Chocolate Bossypaws. No surprise, she mostly speaks in doggerel. You can find her contributions tagged with Chocolatiana.

Check out my newsletter, Artisanal Scribbles, where I’m grappling with writing, authentic human authorship, integrity, and the craft of beauty in the AI age. You can also find some of my old software projects at GitHub. Nothing very impressive. I mostly wrote tiny utilities in Python and shell scripts. I’m mostly retired from coding nowadays.

I find myself suddenly de-corporatized (their choice, not mine). To help keep the lights on, buy me a coffee!
