I am passionate about democracy, equality, public education and the ethics of those in elected office. I am inspired by Ukraine and all who fight authoritarianism. I enjoy travel, history, new tech, old cars, music & golf. Yes, I have dry sense of humor.
Trump has mastered the "Gish Gallop", a speaking technique intentionally designed to confuse & deceive. It's effectiveness is proven, and you'll see many other Republicans using it today. The strategy was named after a famous Creationist who used it often in debates.

#OnThisDay in 1981, #Reagan signed off on a #CIA plan to recruit and support a 500-man force of right-wing Nicaraguan rebels to conduct covert actions against the #Sandinista government in #Nicaragua. This eventually led to the #Iran-Contra scandal in 1986.
