Trump, Iran, and Deliberately Misinterpreting the Truth
As shown at left, the United States is loaded with people who twist the facts to their liking.

In the Future, Will There Be People Who Admit to Having Supported Trump?
Of course. Even if Trump is removed from office, then tried, convicted and incarcerated, there will be:
a) A small group who claim he was sent by God to save America, only to be railroaded by the communists.
b) A much larger group who believe that he was doing a good job but became eccentric.
How Much Longer Can This Foolishness Possibly Work?
The lifecycle of someone like Tucker Carlson and the others mentioned at left:
a) They’re on Fox News or maybe they have their own podcast, spouting pro-Trump crap.
b) They see what they should have seen from the start, i.e., that Trump is criminally insane, and they say so publicly.
c) Trump calls them “low IQ.”
Doesn’t this garbage have a limited shelf-life? Are voters going to buy this indefinitely?
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Obviously, what MTG says here is good news, but really? Is she sincere, or did she realize that it was to her political advantage?
I’m highly suspicious. Until this reversal, she was known for her positions as a white supremacist, antisemite, QAnon conspiracy theorist (including Pizzagate), anti-vaxxer, and Putin supporter, and for aiding and supporting attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Now, out of nowhere, she’s a sane individual?

A World Superpower Pays Heavy Costs to Be Led by a Spoiled Child
At left see we what it’s like when a formerly great country is being led be a moron.
Will “they better stop now!” lay this issue to rest?
Helping People Learn Science
In their ad, the folks offering “The Most Complete Periodic Table Ever” claim that, if your kid is struggling with chemistry, she can improve with this product, which is essentially tons of useless information.
Who discovered molybdenum? In what year? What is its market value?
We are a society in which our facility with science is now in free-fall. If you think that blunting whatever may remain of your child’s natural curiosity with crap like this is a good idea, here’s where to shop.

The Foundering U.S. Economy
Poor and working-class Americans are struggling with the current economy.
The MAGA base must be going insane. Trump’s telling them that the economy is great while they’re paying $6 a gallon of gas and $12.99 for a pound of hamburger.
Bill Maher’s Political Reversal
Re: what comedian Bill Maher says at left: bullcrap.
The “left” would like to see the United States a) evolve into a social democracy like the countries in Northern Europe, and b) expel its authoritarian president.
Not much new here, and certainly, nothing “goofy.”
Why Trump Canned Rex Tillerson
Those wishing to know why Rex Tillerson, former CEO and chairman of ExxonMobil, lasted only 13 months as Trump’s Secretary of State need look no further than the meme at left.
Trump places essentially zero value on the law, as demonstrated by his attempt to overthrow the U.S. federal government when he lost the 2020 election. People who will not commit crimes on his behalf don’t last long.
Ayn Rand Was Once “A Thing”
Ayn Rand was “a thing” when I was growing up in the 1960s and 70s, though most people today wonder how that was possible.
Here’s an AI summary of what liberals/altruists gave us:
Liberalism has historically driven the establishment of fundamental rights, social safety nets, and regulatory protections in the U.S. Key contributions include the Bill of Rights, Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, civil rights legislation, the 40-hour work week, women’s suffrage, and environmental protection laws, focusing on individual liberty and equality.
Fundamental Rights & Freedoms: Promotion of freedom of speech, religion, the press, and separation of church and state.
Social Safety Nets: Creation of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to protect vulnerable populations.
Labor Protections: Establishment of the 40-hour work week, child labor laws, overtime pay, and safe working conditions
Civil Rights & Equality: Driving forces behind the Civil Rights Act, women’s suffrage (right to vote), and marriage equality.
Consumer & Environmental Safety: Implementation of the Pure Food and Drug Act and regulations for cleaner air and water.
Public Infrastructure: Expansion of public education and investment in infrastructure.
