This sounds a bit improbable, doesn’t it?  Russia’s GDP is 1/13th the size of ours.   It’s less than our state of Texas.  Their GDP per capita ($14K) ranks #68 in the world.

The country consists of 144 million poor people led by a handful of billionaires and a war criminal butcher.

I’m not sure I understand this.

Outside of a few white nationalist nut-jobs like Kid Rock and Ted Nugent, and, I suppose, Clint Eastwood while he is still alive, Trump has almost zero support from our planet’s artists and scientists.  Is he going to weaponize the justice system and try to prosecute 95+% of the world’s actors, writers, directors, other producers of entertainment and intellectual content, news journalists, schoolteachers, international diplomats, college professors, researchers, and environmental scientists who have the audacity to disapprove of him?

This childishly criminally behavior doesn’t even occur in most of the world’s banana republics.  How could it have possibly happened here?

Every few days, we learn about the end of another government program that, for years, has served to protect the environment, save consumers money, preserve our health and safety.

What type of life will be available to Americans after another four full years of Trump?  It’s hard to predict, but it won’t be pretty.

Just kidding.

Though this situation with Ashli Babbitt is, of course, totally outrageous, it’s really just par for the course under Trump.

I was speaking with some friends earlier today about the decline in demand for plant-based meat, e.g., Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat.  They suggested that perhaps these companies have insufficient PR, but I countered that the intensely negatively PR funded by the ultra-wealthy beef industry is more likely to blame.

When you read the words at left, ask yourself who wrote this, and more to the point, who “they” are.  The implication, obviously, is that “they” are the woke communists who dare to offer an alternative to deforestation and the factory farming of cows.

I doubt there is a definitive answer to the question that a reader poses at left, but here’s how I’ve been dealing with this issue since I was a boy:

A couple: 2

A few: 3 – 4

Several: 5 – 12

Many: more that 12.

Apparently, the author of the meme here doesn’t know that 2023 marked the sixth straight year that the United States led the world in oil production.

The modern-day Republican party is doing everything in its power to remove regulations that are aimed at protecting the environment, and right now, they’re having a field day, due to our nation’s rejection of science.

But what happens when the MAGA crowd finds itself standing on their rooves, as shown at left? This could get interesting.

This isn’t physically impossible, but it’s extremely impractical.

I strongly doubt any serious person or group is wasting time on this.
