I experienced one of those Unknown Knowns this past week while attending the Hootie and the Blowfish Monday After the Masters Celebrity Pro/Am golf tournament.
I experienced one of those Unknown Knowns this past week while attending the Hootie and the Blowfish Monday After the Masters Celebrity Pro/Am golf tournament.
The Masters golf tournament kicked off yesterday, with defending champion Rory McIlroy sharing the early first round lead with a five-under par 67.
It’s a done deal, a piece of cake. A slam dunk, lock. An open-and-shut, signed-sealed-and delivered, sure thing. But is anything ever guaranteed or a sure bet?
There’s no question that President Trump’s tariff campaign has become the hallmark of his second term in office.
At the risk of coming off somewhat grandiose, I did find it a bit flattering when not one, not two, but three well-known research organizations reached out to me for my view as a “Washington insider.”
Although it’s estimated that somewhere between 27 and 32 million people tuned in to watch at least part of President Trump’s State of the Union (SOTU) address this past Tuesday, the speech didn’t quite hit in downtown D.C. like past SOTUs have.
Because there is nothing going on in Washington right now — except EVERYTHING going on in Washington right now — I’ve decided to write about something completely different this week.
