The 25th Amendment Watch Eighteenth Edition. The devalued currency edition.

Trump is seriously seeking to have Congress amend the law so that his demented visage can appear on a $250.00 bill.

This is completely sick.

Or evil.

On the sick item, a recent video shows Donald Trump getting off of Marine Corps 1 (which frankly shouldn't be a thing) and veering all over as he walks.

FTD is notoriously hard to diagnose while a person is alive. It's slow moving as a rule and the person afflicted with it often just seems weird and mean before it's really advanced. It's horrific to watch up close. Pneumonia ends up being what kills most people with FTD.

A person with the affliction shows these signs.

Symptoms of FTD start slowly and progress steadily, and in some cases, quickly. They vary from person to person. They depend on the areas of the brain involved. These are common symptoms:
Behavior or personality changes, such as swearing, stealing, more interest in sex, or a decline in hygiene habits
Socially inappropriate, impulsive, or repetitive behaviors
Impaired judgment
Apathy
Lack of empathy
Decreased self awareness
Loss of interest in normal daily activities
Emotional withdrawal from others
Loss of energy and drive
Trouble using or understanding language, such as a hard time naming objects, expressing words, or knowing the meanings of words
Hesitation when speaking
Less frequent speech
Easily distracted
Trouble planning and organizing
Frequent mood changes
Agitation
Growing dependence
Some people have physical symptoms, such as:
Tremors
Muscle spasms or weakness
Stiffness
Poor coordination or balance
Trouble swallowing
Mental health symptoms also may occur. These include hallucinations or delusions. But these are not as common as other changes.

This is what Trump appears to have.

It if isn't this, then he's otherwise severely mentally ill, or actually seeking to sabotage the country for some reason, with being a foreign agent the only good explanation. This would fit into that, as it would seriously impair the value of U.S. currency.

The good news, if there is any, is that this would take an act of Congress and it appears to be unlikely that smiling sycophant Bessant aside, anyone is going to be able to convince a sufficient number of Congressmen to go along with this, particularly by July 4, 2026.

Thomas More, counsellor of law and statesman of integrity, merry martyr and most human of saints: Pray that, for the glory of God and in the pursuit of His justice, I may be trustworthy with confidences, keen in study, accurate in analysis, correct in conclusion, able in argument, loyal to clients, honest with all, courteous to adversaries, ever attentive to conscience. Sit with me at my desk and listen with me to my clients’ tales. Read with me in my library and stand always beside me so that today I shall not, to win a point, lose my soul. Pray that my family may find in me what yours found in you: friendship and courage, cheerfulness and charity, diligence in duties, counsel in adversity, patience in pain—their good servant, and God’s first. Amen

"Be at peace. Do not look forward in fear to the changes of life; rather look to them with full hope as they arise. God, whose very own you are, will deliver you from out of them. He has kept you hitherto, and He will lead you safely through all things; and when you cannot stand it, God will bury you in his arms. Do not fear what may happen tomorrow; the same everlasting Father who cares for you today will take care of you then and every day. He will either shield you from suffering, or give you unfailing strength to bear it. Be at peace, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imagination." St. Francis de Sales

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
