I oppose the Jewish plan to replace white-skinned people with more docile dark-skinned people. But I support the South African plan to replace Latino service industry indentured servants with Asian high-tech indentured servants.

The first time Donald Trump became president, he announced his companies would not enter any foreign deals during his term.

This week, his son Eric announced the unveiling of a new Trump Tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Ethics? Lol.
Trump paid lip service to conflict-of-interest ethics arrangements the first time around. So far this time, he’s not even doing that.

Our values define who we are, how we act, what decisions we make as a people. Perhaps it’s time to remember what values define us.

So glad @thebulwark.bsky.social published the article I wrote on this subject today, on a day we give thanks.

Enjoy & provide your thoughts.
"Even a cursory reading of the country’s founding documents and great speeches makes clear that America is a political organization with a reliance on our values." How many of us can really say what they are?

I Helped the Army Remember Its Values. I Wish I Could Do the Same for the Country.
The virtues we uphold define who we are as soldiers or civilians, individuals or a nation.
