On a personal level, today was very productive.

First Weight Watchers first thing this morning. -4.2 lbs for total loss of 40 lbs. Then a stop at Big Y for ingredients for Pho. (Making it for family.) Hot coffee at McDonald's then back home. Finished Pho and packaged bowl for brother. Did laundry and vacuumed downstairs. Started to mow lawn but tractor broke down. Luckily I remembered similar symptoms years back and actually managed to get tractor running again. Finished lawn, took shower, folded clothes, and cleaned up kitchen.

The main news today is the horrific shootings of people in Dallas, Louisiana and Minnesota. Certainly nothing I can add to the discourse already taking place.

A bright note for me is the ongoing legal battle between Gretchen Carlson and Roger Ailes. She's suing him for sexual harassment. Ailes asked the judge to dismiss the case because he says the suit is a publicity stunt by Carlson. Six women have come forward since the filing to claim he did the same to them. What an ego on that guy has. The case should be dismissed because he says so. Maybe this beagle-jowled emperor will finally get his comeuppance.
