Did America Get Fat by Listening to Government Experts?

Democrats Won Big In Wisconsin Last Night
The best shot for a Democratic win last night was in an open state Senate district in the far west of Wisconsin. The Republicans had held the district for nearly two decades and Trump beat Hillary in the rural district massively in 2016. But Trump's popularity-- as well as Governor Scott Walker's-- have plummeted. And Democrat Patty Schachtner upset Republican state Rep.

China, Russia lambast Canada summit on N Korea
The 20 countries meeting in Vancouver to discuss North Korea’s nuclear program pledged to reinforce sanctions and tighten the noose around leader Kim Jung-un [Xinhua]
China and Russia have questioned the validity of a summit on North Korea’s nuclear program hosted in the Canadian city of Vancouver because it did not adequately represent the world community.
The meeting, which was organized by Canada and the United States and attended by 18 other nations, did not include China or Russia. -
The CIA’s Tom Clancy File
Just as with James Bond and Ian Fleming, the CIA’s CREST database is littered with reference to Tom Clancy.

The Prolific Shit: The American Lexicon’s Most Protean, Versatile and Expressive Word Full Stop.

No, it’s shit. In fact, shit’s the shit. It’s derivation and etymology prove interesting in this thinly-veiled inclusion to give this coprolalia disquisition a flavor of linguistic panache.

CIA False Flag Likely in Drone Attack on Russia"s Syrian Bases
The audacious multiple-drone attack on Russia’s military bases in Syria is increasingly looking like a false flag carried out by the American Central Intelligence Agency. Sophisticated technology and a Ukrainian connection indicate that the swarm attack with 13 unmanned aerial vehicles was not the work solely of Syrian anti-government militants.

Syria - US Traps Itself, Commits to Occupation, Helps to Sustain the Astana Agreement
The Trump administration policy in Syria is finally coming into daylight. It has decided to permanently separate north-east of Syria from the rest of Syria with the rather comical idea that this will keep Iranian influence out of Syria and give the U.S. a voice in a final Syrian settlement. This move lacks strategical foresight:

Is Bitcoin a Reaction to US Dollar Hegemony?

NATO’s “Operation Atlantic Resolve” marches closer towards Russia’s borders
US military magazine Stars and Stripes says “the big guns and better chow” for US soldiers sent to Russia’s border are part of Operation Atlantic Resolve.
NATO states that it remains committed to deter aggression in Europe, in response to Russia’s 2014 “annexation” of Crimea.
As with many western media propaganda campaigns, the truth as to what happened in Crimea during the US/EU sponsored coup in Ukraine, is seldom reported in western outlets.
The result…NATO marches forward towards Russia’s borders. -
Trump kicks CNN reporter out of White House office (Video)
CNN’s Jim Acosta is a White House correspondent so he should, for the most part, just report the news and be non-partisan.
However Acosta has taken on the role of “resistance” leader, winning identity politics brownie points from neo-liberal elites and SJWs, while often making a complete fool of himself for the world to see.
On Tuesday in the White House Oval Office, Acosta was unhinged, claiming White House aides shouted in his face to drown out his questions.
President Trump then pointed at Jim Acosta and said “out”. -

Hold Your Applause for Trump Selling Snake Oil
When Donald J. Trump beat Hillary Clinton in the race for the U.S. presidency in 2016, about a billion-people pegged their hopes on the billionaire developer’s promises. Now, a little more than a year into his presidency, and those vested hopes have evaporated. The only “genuine” good news where Trump is concerned, comes with the relief Hillary Clinton is not madam president. But the question now arises; “Did Clinton and the globalists really lose?” -

Russiagate crisis: Mueller counterattacks; subpoenas Bannon
That Special Counsel Robert Mueller is becoming rattled because of the growing criticism of his investigation by Republicans in Congress and because of the legal action Paul Manafort has recently brought against him, is strongly suggested by his frankly very strange decision not just to subpoena Steve Bannon but to subpoena Steve Bannon to give evidence before a Grand Jury.
It is difficult to understand the logic of this step if Mueller is carrying out a serious investigation. -
