Unstable Idiot

Once again, pResident tRump is meeting with our allies in NATO, and seemingly trying his best to piss them off. Putin couldn't have dreamed how well this is working out for Russia, as tRump works to create discord in this important bloc against our cold war foe.

At a breakfast yesterday, he lit into Germany for buying oil from Russia.
The Republican president, in Brussels for the NATO summit, took a swipe at Germany for supporting a new pipeline for Russian gas, saying at a pre-summit meeting: “We’re supposed to be guarding against Russia and Germany goes out and pays billions and billions of dollars a year to Russia.”

He also said that Germany was "captive" to Russia, which begs the question: Aren't we - by the same token - captive to Canada?

Good Morning.

We'll dive right in and start with a further example of the general dysfunction that is the United States these days. A few days back, the news broke that the U.S. Army was discharging foreign-born recruits that had enlisted under the guise of a pathway to citizenship.

I woke up to the news that at least one more of the boys have been rescued from the cave in Thailand.

He's a Big Talker. The Biggest!

Recently our President held a large, very Large, rally in Montana and people are making fun of him! Why? Because they - the Fake News and the liberals take things out of context. Case in point:

Think we need a day off.
Author: TriSec    Date: 07/07/2018 09:44:52

Looking over my laundry list of Saturday items, there seems to be a certain sameness to it all.

As I often did during the Bush "administration", I'll turn to the words of the fictional Dana Scully.

"We're far beyond the point of common sense here."

__________ Friday?
Author: wickedpam    Date: 07/06/2018 12:54:59

Honestly, I have no idea what kind of Friday this should be. There are so many horrific things going on that its hard for anything fluffy to feisty to fabulous to treat as many wounds as we have right now as a nation.

Maybe something that could potentially be all three?

A Civil 4th
Author: BobR    Date: 07/05/2018 15:38:04

A few days ago, right-wing nutjob propagandist Alex Jones made the bold (and absurd) proclamation that the "leftists" were going to start a new "Civil War" on the 4th of July. Like all of his nonsense it was based in nothing and of course had zero truth to it.

Good Morning.

As we're about to head into that orgy of Americanism tomorrow, you may have seen one or two of these around where you live.

While this seems like something we should heed, it's actually indicative of a far deeper problem in the house behind that sign.
