Nobody But Bernie And Elizabeth-- Preferably On The Same Ticket

I live in California where Trump lost to Hillary in a massive landslide in 2016. She beat him 8,753,788 (61.73%) to 4,483,810 (31.62%)... without my vote. I'm not into lesser-of-two evils voting.

Not a hero, not then, not now, not ever-- just a right-wing kookTucker Carlson, Max Boot and Bill Kristol... what comes to mind? Conservative Republicans, right? Stop there. Don't over-think it. That's the answer. No, "buts" about how Boot and Kristol are anti-Trump. Glad they are, but it doesn't matter about who they are and what their advice on anything other than-- very precisely-- Trump's odiousness, means.

Guns or Butter: Neocons Want More Weapons less Government Services

By Philip Giraldi | American Herald Tribune | December 30, 2018 It is one of the great ironies that the United States, which is not actually threatened by any foreign power, maintains a ruinously expensive and globally destructive national security policy that is based on fear. It can be argued that Washington was at least […]

The Trump Regime Is All About Law And Order-- Unless You're Wealthy

Bankster by Nancy OhanianIt's great when is reasonable and understanding when they ensnare someone for bending the rules, especially if-- the classic example-- it's a man who steals some milk to feed his staving baby or a loaf of bread for a starving family.
