We spend our time yelling “across the isle” The far right, the “radical left”. It’s a distraction. Ask yourself how is it that the top 1% has 99% of the power when we the people have 99% of the vote? Buy enough politicians and let them divide us, that’s how Coming soon…..the podcast

I prefer leaders that accompany their soldiers into battle, instead of taxing the people so he can spend another day on the golf course with absolutely no eyes on what is playing out.
The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.
This is a war almost 40 years in the making. Trump said in *1987* that the US should attack "horrible, horrible" Iran, "and take over some of their oil." In the years since, Trump talked about seizing oil from Venezuela, Iraq, Syria, Kuwait, and Libya. www.businessinsider.com/trump-energy...

Ten glorious years of a guy who has mostly been the president and always been the main character of American political life doing posts like this and everyone trying to figure out what cable news segment he saw, misunderstood in the way a dog might misunderstand a crossword, and made into policy.
I foolishly assumed that this Trump post tonight made no sense to me because there is some medical situation in Greenland of which I am uninformed. But so far all the news reports I’ve seen are saying that it is unclear what he is talking about.
Julius Erving is 76. Don't be fooled if you see if him with a cane. He uses it occasionally for sciatica. He can still dunk the basketball, and wants you to know it. "I introduce myself as Julius out of respect to my parents," he says. "But you can call me Doctor or 'Doc.' That's from the source."
