The previous email was a mistake, and did not come out as intended.   So, toss that one and try this.   This is what should have been:

Just for Xeets and Giggles (06.29.24)

I'll bet you could use a few laughs after this past week. Fortunately for us all, there was mirth to be found amidst the madness!

The debate was on everyone's mind going into this week, just as it is for many coming out of it. Folks had suggestions for the Biden Campaign (which perhaps they should have taken!) about how to treat Trump's criminality. Good pointers for the future!

The best fodder for memes came when Donald Trump insisted that millions of illegal immigrants were entering the country and taking "Black jobs."

The Daily Show pulled out a sock puppet to show how ridiculous undecided, uninformed voters are these days.

Trump said some weird shit again, and it just had to be put into historical context.

This is an old meme but it made the rounds in response:

It's the gold MAGA high tops that are *chef's kiss* here.

Don Jr. took a weird picture of him and a snake so it just had to be said, and said perfectly, by Ron Filipkowski of MeidasTouch:

Folks had thoughts about the school posting requirement.
