Obama served as President for benefit of the People. Trump lied his way to the presidency out of personal greed. Trump's capabilities are about inversely proportional to his fantasies: Candidate Trump made this campaign commitment with exceedingly little understanding of the dynamics of...

Yes, BUT ! By international law sovereignty extends some legal rights to miles off-shore, fishing for common example. The U.S. navy already sends vessels through, deliberately; the canine equivalent of sprinkling on the fire hydrant. One innovative / interesting complication: China has been...

Alright, So when I chose to be born in the U.S. during the Eisenhower administration, what precisely is it I should have done to indemnify against President Trump? note: MTG has publicly advocated removing President Trump via the Constitutional process defined in the 25th Amendment.

Philippines opens key coast guard base in the disputed South China Sea China claims virtually the entire sea, a key trade route, which has been occupied by Filipino forces and civilians for decades.

Trump killed a dozen U.S. military. He squandered expensive munitions. And Trump may have helped consolidate Iranian political cohesion, and render the survivors of Trump's failure even more radical. Some experts have suggested, Iran doesn't need nukes, because Iran retains a choke-hold on the...

It hadn't occurred to me until after I'd read #473. What may seem the most $capitalist of all, large corporations, they have central planning: a chairman of the board, and subordinate members that plan the course of their operation. What's laissez-faire is not the corporations, but the markets...

It might not help here, but at least it's an outside the box perspective: two contentious brothers are to inherit their parent's estate. But their fraternal contentions are deep-seated an unresolvable. So their real estate bequest was formulated as follows. - Elder brother would flip a...

Our Vietnam War ground troops commuted to mortal combat in vehicles they called "Hueys". They were made by Howard Hughes. "I was under medication when I made the decision not to burn the tapes."-- President Richard Nixon Tricky Richard didn't resign over the Watergate burglary. He resigned...

One needn't have a doctor ate trigonology to have a common sense empirical understanding of entropy. Left to seemingly random forces things just seem to naturally turn to pooh. Scale that common sense up to national governance, central planning would seem to be a more reliable path to prosperity...

%$#@! Pointing the morally indignant accusatory finger is a dismally inadequate substitute for systemic solution. Perhaps "the Archdiocese of Baltimore" is intrinsically evil, perhaps not. Either way: -Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. - paraphrase Lord Acton No human...

I appreciate the craftsmanship, the artistic skill of applying the bands of color so uniformly, skillfully. plus, a message from Boise to the State legislature: - No, YOU da ho. -

Trump has himself between Iran, and a hard place. a) Who will pay this $2 $M / tanker toll? The U.S. taxpayer? Why? Trump himself announced we don't need that oil, we've got our own. So Trump wants U.S. to subsidize the rest of the planet's oil markets? $Millions per boat?! b) King Trump may...

Seems to me communism absolutely thrives, is an unbridled success at family level. When older brother's trousers are outgrown, they join younger brother's wardrobe. Perhaps at church level communism succeeds. What seems to be the indispensable component of success of communism is universal...

President Trump is by definition a terrorist. Who put Trump back into office? REPUBLICANS If Republican voters are not terrorists, for they literally voted for this, how shall history characterize them? Enablers? Dupes? Supporters of terrorism? If Trump is a terrorist, and they support Trump...

Trump is a buffoon. The Middle East broadly, and Iran specifically know it. TACO Trump tried to bluff the Hormuz Strait open, offering arbitrary deadlines and dire consequences experts characterized as "war crimes". Then Trump caved. That doesn't even begin to address Iran's war reparations...

Generally I'm not enthusiastic about double-standards. That doesn't mean they don't exist. It's possible to be egalitarian domestically, internally, and to also not be internationally. The result of that would be the situation Israel finds itself with today. Jefferson outlined that reasoning...

So true. Is this relevant 4W ? As has been stated by Thomas Jefferson, “that government governs best that governs least”. It can also be said, “that government governs best that governs closest to home”. https://americancenterparty.org/governmental-philosophy/ In the Goldwater era, wasn't the...
