Inconvenient Truths

Autumn has taken a turn towards winter.  Temps are expected to dip into the low-mid 20s in the early hours of Tuessday morning.  Fortunately, it'll be near 40° when we're out in the Cottonwood Gallery for Nature's Notebook on Monday.  Similarly, it'll be about the same on Tuesday evening when we're heading out for the River of Lights.

The BioPark is operating under its winter scheduled and is closed on Monday during the day (but open in the evening for RoL).  We'll have the entire place to ourselves.  Let's see what wildlife takes advantage of the quietude to come out.  

Meanwhile, yesterday the White House rolled out a new web feature:  its list of "Media Offenders."  Such a blatant disregard of the First Amendment is outrageous.  Even TCF's cheerleaders at the WaPo and Grey Lady are on the list.  One might assume that Bondi will soon be instructed to prosecute each instance on the list.  

I for one see the list as a badge of honor for the media included there.  It's not a wall of shame but a role call of First Amendment defenders.  I expect a strong response on this morning's political television.  More to come.
