NONE of the strikes have been legal.

ALL of the strikes have been murder.

This time, they decided to torture their victims before killing them.

Every person who complies with these orders is complicit in murder. These are illegal orders.

'As scientists, we are increasingly being asked to tell the public the truth about the crises we face in simple and direct terms.

The truth is that we are shocked by the ferocity of the extreme weather events in 2023.

We are afraid of the uncharted territory that we have now entered.'

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

The problem is that the farmers will need another bailout in 2026, 2027 and 2028. You customers have found new suppliers and are happy. As a Canadian I now prefer African oranges that are in our stores, Florida can keep theirs. China is now buying from South America. These customers are gone.

Not all Americans agree with the current state of FASCISM in America… we are trying to find ways to “right the SHIP!”

Please KNOW that there are many Americans who support and agree with a strong NATO and support strong ties with Europe, Canada and Ukraine…
