• Hillary Clinton blasted the Trump border policy an hour after she endorsed a secure border in Munich Monday. Hillary is always rattled on this day of the year. It's a day when we all realize they should change Presidents Day to Bill Clinton Day or Jack Kennedy Day because of all the mattress sales.

• Kiplinger's survey said 47% of Americans planned to shop for big ticket items like furniture, mattresses and electronics on Presidents Day. Our presidents themselves kicked back. Trump played golf, Obama hosted a podcast and Joe Biden celebrated Presidents Day by setting his watch back an hour.

• Mt. Rushmore hosted a fireworks show to celebrate Presidents Day Monday. It's a day when the mail goes undelivered and government workers don't do anything all day, bankers go golfing, while regular people must go to work. If that's not the perfect way to celebrate Presidents I don't know what is.

• Michael Jordan celebrated Sunday when Tyler Reddick drove Jordan's race car to victory at Daytona. I'm so glad he's found a new sports outlet for his mania to be a winner. Years back, the leading money-winner in golf was whoever played Michael Jordan the most number of times in one year.

• Polymarket, the proposition betting site that lets you bet on future world events, set up New York's first free grocery store Monday, but the entire idea didn't please everybody. Some pointed out it takes all the fun out of shoplifting. Security guards felt weird telling a flash mob there's no hurry.

• The Weather Channel reported torrential rainstorms caused flash flooding in parts of South and West Los Angeles on Monday. Not everyone stayed inside. New York City wasn't the only place enjoying a free grocery store when the NWS reported it was raining cats and dogs in Koreatown.

• Secretary of State Marco Rubio pointed out America's European foundation in his speech at the Munich Security Conference Monday. He said the U.S. was founded by the English which gave us our laws, language, culture and institutions. I've waited 419 years for someone to thank me for this mess.

• Governor Gavin Newsom spoke on a panel at the Munich Conference in Germany and said there are armed masked troopers on the streets of his state rounding up foreigners and deporting them. The reaction surprised him. He's now leading all other candidates to be the next Chancellor of Germany.

• Barack Obama caused media uproar Monday when he said space aliens are real before later saying he's seen no evidence. Did Barack pay attention in history class? The past 10,000 years make it obvious to me that advanced civilizations in outer space use Planet Earth as their insane asylum.

• President Trump sent an ominous message to Iran by deploying the USS Gerald Ford into the Persian Gulf. The carrier is named for the president famous for clobbering spectators with his tee shots. To tally his score after each hole, Ford would just look back up the fairway and count the wounded.

• Hyatt Hotels CEO Tom Pritzker resigned Monday after the Epstein Files revealed emails showing he kept up a close friendship with Epstein, putting Hyatt Hotels stock in danger. Hyatt's competing hotels likely celebrated. It has taken 25 years for Paris Hilton to claim the moral high ground.
