I'm losing track of how many countries a man livid he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize has illegally bombed.

Iran. Venezuela. Nigeria. Afghanistan. Iraq. Libya. Pakistan. Somalia. Syria. Yemen.

Not to mention threatening to annex Greenland and Canada and invade Panama.

So if the U.S. is allowed to enter another country and remove its dictator, can other countries invade the U.S. and remove that dictator? Asking for alot of people

Every action by the criminal regime in the White House just reinforces my belief that Chinese global hegemony is only a decade away.

I read "The Garden of Rama", the third and final of Clarke's Rendezvous With Rama books, in 1991. In it, a mob boss takes control of a colony and launches wars of annihilation and propaganda. I found it unbelievable at the time, like who would go along with this evil? Now I see it was not fiction.

No. The citizenry is incapable of recognizing the depth of this crime.
Trump has launched an invasion of a sovereign country and kidnapped its head of state, an act of war without the approval of Congress. Hegseth just testified to Congress that their military action wasn’t about regime change. He lied.

Will this finally lead to Trump’s long-overdue impeachment?

Me: "Of you're stuck on an island, what three things would you take with you, from any store?"

My 5-year-old: "It depends."

My 5-year-old: "What's already in my hotel room?"

For those who have been led to believe that this year’s flu vaccine doesn’t work, this isn’t the case.

ER visits and hospital admissions are reduced by 72–75% in children and adolescents, and by 32–39% in adults.

US public discourse has lost its way. Canada is well infected. And Europe is fast approaching a similar endpoint.
Here is the editor of Tablet agreeably reposting someone calling nonwhite NYC immigrants "worthless biotrash." It's astonishing how quickly this stuff has escaped containment

Watching my 5-year-old organizing his "flags of the world" jigsaw puzzle.

Me: "What are you doing?"
5-year-old: "I'm separating out all the countries that used to be owned by England."

He'll be teaching my 4th-year global health course soon.

For over two thousand years Christians have been warning us about the antichrist.

When he finally shows up, they vote him into office.

Devastating. Yesterday, a 5-year-old boy died from the flu.

Dr. Oz was spewing advice earlier this week where he downplayed the importance of vaccines and recommended “getting sunlight”.

I don’t know whether Micah was vaccinated, but of the kids who died from flu last year, 90% were not.

Donald Trump and the Republican Party know that they are likely to be voted out of power in November 2026. The tools they are counting on to prevent this are the same ones being deployed by the largest technology companies: big data sets and vast computing power.
