Answer to yesterday’s puzzle: An author’s characters do what he wants them to do.

Joan Crawford was cited as an icon of the 1920s by no less than F. Scott Fitzgerald when she was a pretty young thing breaking through and remains acclaimed today for her Oscar-winning performance in Mildred Pierce while middle-aged. She ended her storied career with Trog, a low-budget British horror flick from 1970.
DiFi Makes Manchurian Candidate Real — We were way ahead of the curve concerning the Biden family scandals involving Ukraine and China, but now we are going to give props to The Federalist for its withering report Monday concerning powerful California Senator Dianne Feinstein.
The Federalist reveals that Democrat DiFi and her husband Richard Blum have gotten hundreds of millions of dollars from investments in the state-controlled economy of the People’s Republic of China.
There may be strings.
Feinstein is an outspoken defender of the PRC. She has compared the state-orchestrated Tiananmen Square massacre n which about 3,000 died according to reliable non-PRC sources with the Kent State protests which saw four students shot by National Guard troops acting on their own.
The Dem darling fought the sale of arms to Taiwan.
She fought legislation that would have named street in front of the Chinese Embassy for Chinese anti-Communist writer and human rights activist Liu Xiabao. The legislation eventually passed but was vetoed by Barack Obama.
Did the virtue-signaling senator really not know her driver of 20 years was a communist spy? She’d have to be pretty dumb and nobody ever called her stupid.
We always suspected she was a phony but we never could imagine she might be an out-and-out traitor.
Treason doth never prosper: what ’s the reason?
Why, if it prosper, none dare call it treason

Hamburger Cheese Steak Surprisingly Close To Real Thing — Granted this won’t replace what you can find at the corner steak shop but it comes surprisingly close and is a welcome substitute if you should be stuck in some backwater like Florida or under a quarantine or something.
Sauté onion slices in butter. Crumble an appropriate amount of ground beef in the pan and fry it. Melt cheese with the mix and scramble it. Put it on a long roll and enjoy.
Actually, just dish it on a plate and enjoy.
