BEST WE CAN DO IS 'NO'. Biden accuses Arizona of trespassing and demands containers plugging gaps in border wall be removed.

FALLING LEAVES 2022, WEEK 7:

I have to say at this point it almost looks like Fall is over early. Here's the usual pond view. Leaves are almost all gone, those remaining are all brown. Even the tulip magnolia in the foreground has begun to turn.

Around the fire pit, leaves have gone from yellow/gold to brown (those remaining) and the yard is strewn with leaves even after almost daily use of the leaf blower to keep the grass clear.

Even with all the leaves, the grass is still growing (to my surprise) and only the evergreens have any leaves remaining

Finally a view of the back side of the house, where last week there were still plenty of yellow/red leaves on the trees. This week they're on the ground.

Until next week....

TWITTER WORKERS are twits.

Except for the Chief Twit, who is busily working to redefine the term.

DEMOCRATS: If the midterms don't go our way, it's the voters' fault.

And open borders is the Democrats' way of buying new voters since the old ones won't do....

SEEN ON TWITTER FROM LAUREN BOEBERT:

Joe Biden now says there are 54 states.

I guess if you count the states of denial, confusion, delusion and disaster that his Regime has caused he just might be on to something.

Heh.

POWERLINE: Less is more.

Stay tuned.

‘CIVIL SERVANTS’ IN ARIZONA use their official capacity to openly campaign for Democrats.

WE CALL THEM 'DEMOCRATS'. We are ruled by crooks, incompetents, and clowns.

HERE'S THIS WEEK'S EDITION of PowerLine's Week in Pictures. Many, many good ones this week, especially of the Twitterverse meltdown, but I have a different favorite (suitable for the midterm election):

Now go see the rest.

WELL, IT WILL BE THE END OF THEIR DEMOCRACY. Another Democrat talking head equates voting for economic issues with the end of democracy.

AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IS ALL ABOUT VIRTUE-SIGNALING, not about helping actual disadvantaged people.

It's about saying "I'm not one of them."

THE FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT: Elon Musk hints at the future of Twitter.

ISSUES & INSIGHTS: Biden's border crisis is far worse than you think.

YOU CAN THANK THE DEMOCRATS: Energy executivess tell Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm that shuttered U.S. oil refineries won’t restart.

BEARING ARMS: Armed citizen stops attack on pregnant woman outside a Florida grocery store.

That armed citizen would have been committing a felony offense if he’d saved that woman from being assaulted in a grocery store parking lot in the state of New York....

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Our two parties have both changed, and that explains why one will win, and one lose in the midterm elections.

ELON MUSK is about to bury his talons into the Twitter bird. Twitter 'workers' are not happy.

REAL PEOPLE ARE NOTICING: Racial and ethnic ghettos are only for Democrats.

GERMANS MAY BE SLOW LEARNERS, but they are learning.

PAYPAL RECOMMITS TO SUICIDE: PayPal has reinstated its $2,500 fine for ‘misinformation.’
