Went Up Cricket Creek To Get A Little Cheese; Legislative Math

Got to the farm store in time for a pretty sunset, got home before dark.

Walmart delivery dropped off two meds and a few groceries.

Left shoulder is killing me. I did not sleep well last night. Thinking about setting up the bed in the office/spare room.

Saw a nice interview with Congressman-elect Wellman who is also a Meidas host. Great podcast with Michael Popok and Lisa Graves on the possibility of Lame Duck SCOTUS nominations or even Recess Appointments.

Lisa Graves thinks this would have to happen next week to meet the anticipated timeline for a review by the FBI unless they find a nominee who has been cleared recently.

I believe she said Coney Barrett was confirmed in 30 days. The average is 55 days. From November 9, that would be December 28. Congress is not in session for Thanksgiving week and is in recess on December 19. I believe the new Congress begins on January 3, 2027. In any event, this legislative session only has about 23 working days left not counting weekends.
