❤️BREAKING❤️ - Bernie Sanders before 20k People in Tucson:

"They have the wealth. They have all the money in the world. They have the power. They have the media. But you know what they don’t have? We’ve got 20,000 people here in Tucson and we got 100's of millions of people all across this country."

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

Alito dissents: "As the nation's highest court, we have a duty to ensure that the power entrusted to federal judges by the Constitution is not abused," he wrote. "Today, the court fails to carry out that responsibility."

How about ensuring the power entrusted to the POTUS is not abused??

The comparison to McCarthyism is apt.
Universities are changing their stance on speech tolerance. What does that mean for the future of higher education?

Here's the history on how America took Ukraine's nuclear weapons.
In exchange, we promised to protect them from Russia.
It is why the World can no longer trust us.
In breaking the Budapest Memorandum agreement we also tried to take their minerals!
And we laughed & mocked how their President dresses.
