Trump’s Salute: Apotheosis of the Warfare State – “Granted. The Donald skipped American history class – along with much else that even modestly educated people still recall. But owing to his late life conversion to flag-hugging patriotism you would think he might have taken time to actually read the Declaration of Independence. Obviously not. We have scoured its 1334 words, and our recollection was fully vindicated. To wit, there is not a single mention of armed might, military exploits, unfurled flags, marching bands, battle hymns or occupied airports (sic!) etc.” – David Stockman

Trump’s Patriotism Vs. The New Anti-Americanism – “A specter of anti-Americanism appears to be rising on the left.

Buchanan

Obama: Front Man for Washington’s Imperialism – “Obama was the “drone king” whose regime bombed 7 Muslim countries, overthrew the democratic government in Hondurus, overthrew and murdered Gaddafi, tried to do the same thing to Assad in Syria, overthrew the democratic government in Ukraine and demonized Russia and the Russian president, tried to undermine and overthrow the democratically elected Latin American presidents Morales, Chavez, and Ortega, constantly lied through his teeth, and met with the approval of the military/security complex and global capitalists.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Brave Congressman Blasts 2-Party System as ‘Existential Threat to America’ then Quits His Party – “Amash has been unafraid to challenge his own party on multiple occasions as they circumvented the constitution to wage illegal wars, erode gun rights, and grow the surveillance state.

Current times are running close to empty for human kindness, compassion, civility, truth and facts, accurate science and higher consciousness, but most of all, steadfastly promulgating the demise of a sane and rational human society in general, with emphasis on the United States.” – Catherine J. Frompovich
