BBC and CBC are reporting Venezuela. Neither are reporting that Trump is a pedofile rapist and sex trafficker who has chosen this timing to distract from the Epstein files.

It is his way: when you are attacked, attack back. This timing is entirely about the Epstein files.

My opinion on Maduro and Trump: he's corrupt and immoral and doesn't deserve to be president.

Wife just performed (ballet) with one of the local orchestras at the concert hall. She's only gotten back into it in her 60s. For a couple of decades after she stopped performing, she had distanced herself from dance.

I love how brave she is. I love that she did this.

Republicans are evil. If you are a republican, you may not like to hear this, but you should consider "do I consciously support what the Republicans are doing or do i leave?"

One of those choices means you are evil.
