Hmmm...what was the stupidest war started during my lifetime? Born just after WWII, I think I would have to say it is a tie, Putin attacking Ukraine and my country, the US, deciding to totally engage in Vietnam. But still, Trump could decide to order boots on the ground in Iran...

Corruption, in our face, in our bloodstreams...no way to fight back since the highest courts are in the pocket of the polluters. Bernie is so right, take big money out of politics or wave our Democracy adios.

Life can be weirdly funny. Laughed like hell at some of the comments and sites that are here, including the pictures of the motorcade driving over the empty pool. I mean, what can possibly happen bad if one hires almost entirely incompetent people who are willing to be totally loyal to the cult?
Yeah, Cue the massive hurricanes about to flatten parts of Florida, after which Trump will not accept blame for the lack of FEMA help.

There are some wildly talented and experienced people out there, who would love to work for FEMA, but the loyalty pledge, which in effect says one has to be a Trump cult member, is too much. Weird thing number two...Florida is Trump's home state and it is always in the crosshairs to be clobbered by hurricanes, and still, Trump doesn't insist on talent to work for FEMA.

All of Trump's appointments these days are clearly for people in his pocket, we are led by the most corrupted government in American history, and that is saying something.

Darn, you mean there is some resentment around the fact that we murdered over 80 of their leaders in a sneak attack, a clear war crime that led to a war of aggression?

One really understands what Trump means when he talks about suckers and losers...he means you, he means me, he definitely means those who value the rule of law. And yeah, no doubt there is a plan already set in stone to have the incoming VP pardon Trump and his entire grifting empire, as that Republican Party hack, when he was named VP, pardoned Nixon. Though, maybe JD can be convinced to do his duty to his mafia chieftain boss.

At its core, the insanity in the Strait is about the key issue of our time, the use of fossil fuels and the utter destruction of our civilization thanks to human caused global warming. And yeah, they are sacrificing our lives , our futures to the profit line of the big oil boys.
We are led by corrupted people, who because of their wealth are seen as leaders.
This is WWI stupidity stuff, where people fight and die over unbearably idiotic ideas.

I get it. Sure, it is insane, but all the Court is saying is that the law as written is there for the benefit of the big polluters and if you want to actually be able to sue the makers of Roundup, maybe elect sane pelicans for once.

I realized this morning that the only way to survive the next few years is to "Catch 22" pretty much everything and understand I was born into an insane asylum. Up is down and left is right and right is well, politically speaking, the boss of the asylum and it the craziest of them all. I do know runaway inflation is a nightmare so maybe get a FED chairman in there who knows his stuff.

At its core, the Trump regime is about shutting down programs and defense department assignments, so that the money "saved" can be totaled up and given to Trump's cronies in the form of more massive tax cuts, that will bankrupt America and certainly will make Social Security underfunded.

Well, this 79 year old didn't get access, but then, I don't do the hiring and firing at NIH>

Influence peddling at the Presidential level means that it is open season for such behavior by all those with government positions one imagines.

I am sure that at its core, all this antiscience nonsense from Trump and Kennedy is mostly about ginning up energy to take away useful programs for the poor so the rich can keep getting their huge tax cuts.

These days many of us just see Putin, in effect, standing at Trump's shoulder, advising him how to "alien"ate the entire world to weaken American and its military and its internal security forces. Happened when the Soviet Empire fell as well, the gangsters and billionaires looted everything that wasn't nailed down. We are, as a people, divided one from another and goodness knows our NATO allies have to know Trump won't have their back if, say, Putin insanely attacks Poland or starts to use nukes in Ukraine.

Discovery might actually reveal what "science" Musk used to take that life-giving help away from very poor, mostly black people, to make sure there was enough money to give to the super rich in tax cuts.

One wonders just how many funds of major amounts are out there...hidden away, being distributed for the good or for the gangster class. There is always the possibility that all that money is not being pocketed but is in reality being used to do good things for the people of Florida.

Until the midterm votes are actually cast and counted the criminality of the Trump gang will be on full display. Either the courts protect our right to vote and the rights given to the states in the Constitution, or yes, we become Russia, with a pretend democracy run for the profit of the oligarch gangsters.

One wonders if one day the Republican Party, which today is just the sold out BS party, sold out to the super rich who own them, will find a way to become a collection of patriotic Americans who tell the truth and deal from the "ahem" top of the deck.

Murders all, and those who ordered those attacks, extrajudicial killings of criminal subjects, murderers. And one fears that the greatest murder of them all is the UN and the International Criminal Court...with the rule of law dead and gone, all that is left is gangster goons strutting up the place.

Well, say what you will, Brexit was great for...Putin.
As Trump has been for that same murderous dictator. Divide and alienate and grift to the max...One hopes the UK have another vote on returning to the EU or not.

Once again, our diversity is our strength. I am protected in this case, even though I know none of the participants, because, and this is an oddity perhaps, it was a Trump named judge who defended all our rights to free speech, especially to speak out in defense of Palestinian rights. I got an opinion, I want to express it, no President gets to lock me up saying to oppose American foreign policy is to weaken America.

Hoover is dead and buried...and one day so will I be gone, and so will Trump...so who cares about our legacies? What matters is looking at the American people as a family, who deserve long and healthy lives, and elevating the 1% to incredible economic heights has to inevitably drop the bottom 30 % to the hell of outcasting and hopeless poverty.

Just as Trump and his gang made a bunch from holding a street fight at the White House, complete with lots of blood, Trump held a war for the profit of...not Israel, Not the US...
I think if one looks at whose palms got greased, and it will take a year or two for that to sort out...there will be idiotic golf clubs shining in the desert.
