Pledge my loyalty to no politician or party.

US foreign policy, climate change, Middle East then and now, corruption in government.
US gov. the climate change accelerator.

Syria signed offshore oil & gas deal with US Chevron and a Qatari investor.

US involvement in Middle East expanding.

The national ACLU & ACLU of Minnesota have reached out to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discriminations on Tuesday asking for "urgent action" over Trump's human rights abuses in Minnesota.

Welcome to American in the 21st century.

The national ACLU & ACLU of Minnesota have reached out to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination on Tuesday to initiate "urgent action" protocols over Trump's human rights abuses in Minnesota.

Just one more proud moment for America!

What diaper filling remarks have I missed from Mr. Stinky Finger today?

Every bloody day it's something telling me we're all closer to doomsday.

Please, someone, anyone shut him TFU!

Why would the Washington Post lay off its entire Middle East reporting team at a time when the region is so unsettled.

Granted, this will certainly help to ensure that Trump & gang's Master Plan for Gaza and the Board of Peace will get even less media coverage in the future than as it stands now.

Financial Review

Email to E. from PI Riley: “I assume your legal team is in contact with Prince Andrew’s legal counsel.” His counsel should have relations w/intel in Australia on Guiffre.

A's counsel sharing w/your team "...would be in his best interest to get this case resolved quickly.”

US military announced that it shot down an Iranian drone in the Arabian Sea, claims it was approaching its aircraft carrier.

Wait it gets worse.

Hitmen for Trump, Witkoff and Kushner are meeting with Iranian FM Araghchi on Fri. Will they be making an offer Iran can't refuse, Mafia style.

Trump sell pardons as did the Roman Catholic Church in the 11th century-used to support the Crusades, church projects and financial gain.

Indulgences did not forgive the guilt or sin, but removed the temporal punishment.

Who says Trump has no religion...$$$$

In late 2023 & early 2024, during the ongoing genocide in Gaza...

Israel granted licenses to 12 Israeli and international companies to explore for natural gas off the coast of Gaza. Six were for "Zone G" recognized under international law as being Palestine's maritime borders.

This is America now:

There's a measles outbreak at Dilley Immigration Processing Center-concentration camp- in S. Tx., where hundreds of families & children are being held captive under condition no human being should have to suffer.

Just one more proud moment for Americans under Dear Leader.

Karoline Leavitt contributed to Project 2025 with its "Conservative Governance 101" training program videos. Many other Trump minions were also featured.

Also, super duper good Catholic girl who always wears a cross, Karoline, married her husband six mos. after she had his baby. Oops!

Venezuelan Pres. Maduro & his wife Cilia are still being jailed for narco-terrorism at the Metro. Detention Center in Brooklyn. Same facility Maxwell and Epstein were once housed.

Their next court appearance isn't until March 17.

Welcome to the US in the 21st century.

Larry Summers-Epstein files- played a central role in the 2008 fin. crash, with Robert Rubin & Alan Greenspan - architects of 1990's deregulations of banks & dismantling of Glass-Steagall.

Brooksley Born, then head of CFTC, warned Congress multi-trillion OTC derivatives would cause a crash.

If there was anyone who could recognize bad behavior or when nonsense was being fed to media...

Reminiscent of authoritarian strategy, Trump is again suing Harvard for $1b for being "strongly antisemitic" & "feeding a lot of nonsense" to NYT. Stated the institution has been "behaving very badly."

Reported on Politico today:

French authorities searched Musk's X French offices today. Part of a criminal investigation into Grok AI , following proliferation of sexual deepfakes on X .

Every time I hear Noam utter the word Homeland...

I'm reminded of the Nazi term Fatherland, which was used as war propaganda to encourage nationalistic loyalty & patriotic sentiment.

Noam uses Homeland for the same reasons.

These are dangerous times.

I'm changing my calling Trump the Mad King/Emperor to Mr. Stink Finger.

Could this guy be anymore of a low-life?

The Times of Israel reported today that IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Samir spoke on Army Radio and stating an American strike on Iran could take place within a period between "two weeks and two months."

After Zamir returned to Israel, he met with the notorious DM Katz.

US has had a hard-on for Iran beginning in 1908. The US has a long & shady history of interference with Iran, as the West & in particular the Brits.

Research the history around the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co-later became BP, or how Khomeini came to power.

For every today, there was a yesterday.

One more billionaire may be climbing into the clown car.

Kevin Warsh nominated for Fed. Res. Chair, is married to Jane Lauder, billionaire heiress to Estee Lauder cosmetics.

Bear in mind, system is designed to bridge "Wall Street" w/"Main Street."

We know how well that worked out in 2008.

Netanyahu and his gov. are brutal savages & will not be going quietly into the night, (Dylan Thomas) not by any means, They are hell bent on driving all Palestinians alive or dead from the land they deem historically and biblically theirs. Therefore, the resistance must go.

Viva la resistenza!
January 31, 2026 at 4:10 PM
Never forget that the US along with Western powers, by arming and supporting Israel, allowed for the genocide against the Palestinians to occur.

Butcher Biden could have stopped the carnage in its earliest stages but he didn't. Instead, he kept sending weapons and providing intelligence.

Ever wonder if the gates of hell aren't now wide open and they are all up here and the most evil are vying to lead the pack and take over the world with their vileness?

"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." --Einstein

US $1.5t - 30-yr modernization of entire US nuclear armament-land, sea & air.

Next 30 yrs, no less. Let that sink in.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch.

How many bloody pictures of Trump's hand, or the same video of Trump spouting his crap need to be posted for someone to comment with a sentence or two?

Some of us can still read a paragraph without a visual, no offence.

No wonder there is such a lag on BlueSky?

Seemingly, no running comment.
