Pledge my loyalty to no politician or party.

US foreign policy, climate change, Middle East then and now, corruption in government.
Every time I hear Noam utter the word Homeland...

I'm reminded of the Nazi term Fatherland, which was used as war propaganda to encourage nationalistic loyalty & patriotic sentiment.

Noam uses Homeland for the same reasons.

These are dangerous times.

I'm changing my calling Trump the Mad King/Emperor to Mr. Stink Finger.

Could this guy be anymore of a low-life?

The Times of Israel reported today that IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Samir spoke on Army Radio and stating an American strike on Iran could take place within a period between "two weeks and two months."

After Zamir returned to Israel, he met with the notorious DM Katz.

US has had a hard-on for Iran beginning in 1908. The US has a long & shady history of interference with Iran, as the West & in particular the Brits.

Research the history around the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co-later became BP, or how Khomeini came to power.

For every today, there was a yesterday.

One more billionaire may be climbing into the clown car.

Kevin Warsh nominated for Fed. Res. Chair, is married to Jane Lauder, billionaire heiress to Estee Lauder cosmetics.

Bear in mind, system is designed to bridge "Wall Street" w/"Main Street."

We know how well that worked out in 2008.

Netanyahu and his gov. are brutal savages & will not be going quietly into the night, (Dylan Thomas) not by any means, They are hell bent on driving all Palestinians alive or dead from the land they deem historically and biblically theirs. Therefore, the resistance must go.

Viva la resistenza!

Never forget that the US along with Western powers, by arming and supporting Israel, allowed for the genocide against the Palestinians to occur.

Butcher Biden could have stopped the carnage in its earliest stages but he didn't. Instead, he kept sending weapons and providing intelligence.

Ever wonder if the gates of hell aren't now wide open and they are all up here and the most evil are vying to lead the pack and take over the world with their vileness?

US $1.5t - 30-yr modernization of entire US nuclear armament-land, sea & air.

Next 30 yrs, no less. Let that sink in.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch.

How many bloody pictures of Trump's hand, or the same video of Trump spouting his crap need to be posted for someone to comment with a sentence or two?

Some of us can still read a paragraph without a visual, no offence.

No wonder there is such a lag on BlueSky?

Seemingly, no running comment.

DOT, going full AI to draft fed. safety regulations-speed up rule-making process.

Gregory Zerzan, agency's gen. counselor: "We don't need the perfect rule on XYZ. We don't need a very good rule on XYZ. We want good enough. We're flooding the zone." DOT is the "point of the spear."

Good times!

Why are there no major US news outlets, w/reporters and cameras, in Minnesota, considering everything which has occurred?

Three guesses, first two don't count.

Welcome to America in the 21st century!

Land of self-indulgence and consumerism, meanwhile...

Dems agree to "temporarily" fund Homeland Security! That fund consists of $63b, $10b of which is designated for ICE.

Dems haven't done much in the last 50+ years for the betterment of Americans. They are part of the reason we are where we are now.

Money talks...

If Trump's Master Plan for Gaza is to go ahead without obstruction, Iranian leadership has to be taken out. For as long as Tehran is able to fund, arm and train resistance groups, as they have Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq, not only will reconstruction be under threat so, too, will Israel.
