"My, my, my, Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore."

“At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

I listen to a lot of music from the 60s and the song, Delilah, from 1968 written Barry Mason and sung by Tom Jones leaped out at me. It perfectly encapsulates these views.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
"That's a lot of death." ... from an insane person who thinks he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.
By my count to so far here is a list of mainstream media that apparently could not be bothered to dig into the details: BBC, AP, ABC, CBS, and NBC. SO very disappointing.
Corporate media fails the world again. Thank you, Phillips O'Brian for digging into this.
A new free piece released. The Trump "harsh" sanctions on Russia last night were anything but. They actually provide protection for Russia's biggest oil customers to transact business for at least the next 4 weeks--and have no automatic sanction after that. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Jeffries: "The reason why they continue to unlawfully block the swearing in of Adelita Grijalva is because they are actively hiding the Epstein files from the American people. And they're protecting someone, clearly -- the wealthy, the well off, the privileged, and the well-connected."
Such brave brave Republicans and such good reporting from corporate media yet again.
My guess is they voted for white privilege and did not have enough sense to realize that the rest is what comes from voting for an idiot.

Adelita Grijalva: "There is so much that cannot be done until I'm sworn in. So every moment that passes that I'm not able to provide constituent services or be a voice for Arizona, I cannot bring the issues forward that they send me here to do."
I have a lot of complaints about corporate media but it appears 60 Minutes did this one right. Everyone needs to see what Trump is doing to the people's government.

Law enforcement, the National Guard, and Trump's Private Police invade our cities. Our armed forces break international law, ignore human rights of our neighbors, and now are firing artillery shells at us. When will it stop?
