I read you daily missive very regularly and appreciate your efforts to educate and keep your readers focused on what is happening under the surface of daily world news. Regarding today's writing it seems like your critic of Trump's SOU address would hit home more effectively if you hadn't quoted the supporting stories in publications like the the AP, Washington Post, etc. who are completely unworthy any mention in your newsletter unless it is criticism.

Thanks Bill for pointing out a few ‘crackpot’ Dots in the SOTU… I didn’t watch it, didn’t listen; what’s the point? When does He really make any… sense or speak .. the Truth?

ME thinks had ol’ BB been in congress, he too would have remained seated. Nothing is good, all is bad at least until the likes of Joe Biden or Heels up harris are back in charge.

You see in BB’s world nothing is good. Surprised you fly all over the world to your chateaus, wherever the hell they are, don’t you know you are killing the planet!

In reality, other than criticize every f'ing move the man makes the question remains:

WWBBD?

answer: crickets.

"All we could do was lay in our bed."

Methinks you mean "lie". Hens lay. Best always. PM

...perhaps Bill was referring to getting laid?

Wouldn't that be getting into the province of what my kids call "TMI"? Best always. PM

Bill, I am finding it more difficult by the day to read your missives. Today you begin by stating you are "objectivity" connecting the dots, as is your desire. Then you go full steam into the subjective destruction of Trump. What is one to think??

I was relieved to hear that VP Vance is going to uncover enough fraud to balance the budget.

At least I think that's what he said - I wasn't paying much attention.

Bonner writes: "What makes our work especially difficult lately is that there are one heckuva lot of dots to work with..." Yes, Mr. Bonner. When the dots multiply and multiply, it's an indication that your mind is shutting down. Just another column riddled with TDS.

Yes Bill, I remember years ago drawing in my “Connect the Dots” coloring book, and as a child, would sometimes make mistakes, and end up with a very ugly picture. Very much like your Trade of the decade. Connect the wrong dots, and you get an Ugly investment. Sure, if you’re dot connecting logic was based on true reality, data and logic, you would have bet on a tech company like Google, Amazon, Tesla or even Nvidia. But very much like your current political dot connecting, you were way off. It’s ok Bill, because as a child, we all make mistakes. And as we have all seen with you, sometimes the older we get, the more child like we become. So sit back and enjoy your old age or childhood, navigating through the stormy waters of life, and enjoy the day, because tomorrow is never promised, and it’s ok to be wrong. You are just becoming exceptional at it!
