Canada is sovereign. Mexico is sovereign. These are not hard concepts. Putin told Trump that if he shanked his own brother, others would fear him. He never counted on his brother shrugging it off and coming into the boards elbows-up.

Back when Donald was a failure in real estate, he was famous for not paying his contractors. He would come up with fictional fault in their work as an excuse not to pay them. Now, this unscrupulous cretin is short-changing the National Guard. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...

Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.

After each mass shooting, the public asks, “How did we get here?” The real answer goes beyond NRA lobbyists and Second Amendment zealots. It lies in large measure with the strategies of firearms executives like Richard Dyke. (Published Nov. 2023)
