The previous Republican president, Bush, brought us Abu Graib tortures and sexual assault. Charlie Graner and his cohort gave and followed illegal orders. Stacked naked prisoners of war. A naked prisoner on a leash held by a female US soldier. We must never forget our sins.

The Supremes rigged the election today. Evidently the current congressional maps were way too fair. Term limits for justices will not fix this court this anytime soon.

The U.S. should recognize Taiwan's independence. If we are going to aid in their defense, if needed, we should state that now. This silly Nixon stance is absurd, as is clear from China's response to Japan's dramatically milder statement. A people have the right to govern themselves.

I hold 30 stocks. Per Treasury Secretary Richie Rich, I am a banker, a line mechanic, an elevator attendant, a coal stoker, a pharmacologist and a fella that is great with 19-rack mount equipment. Wrong on most counts. I am a whiz at MRP, robotics and New Product Introduction. Soy bean farmer. Pfft.

Ah, the morning DoomScroll:
US’s trade war targets used cooking oil that California imports for biodiesel.
In earnings season, the Banks are killing it on serving the rich in the K-Economy.
Israel stops aid to Gaza because no one can find a specific body under the IDF generated rubble. Racists.

For my whole successful career I was looking over my shoulder at the competition. Better engineers getting choice design projects. Then the global competition, aware of how hard the talented engineers on my Indian team worked to get where they were. My career was about remaining indispensable.

Texas 35th is already the poster child for obscene redistricting designed to ignore half the population.

BNSF and UP would ship a 75% share of US grain, versus 30% in the 80's.
