This could turn you into a socialist if you’re not careful.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
Oh and get the money out of politics

Terrific news on the Western Front. Looks like the conscript army is folding somewhat. And the Chechen leader doesn't sound happy with Putin. How significant (or accurate) is the Brit. news report that several thousand Chechen soldiers have been sent to Moscow (to reinforce security for UKW)?
Hadn't heard that, but it seems "prudential" on Putin's part. When the dam breaks, he's going to be swept away in the flood.
from your mouth, Tom, to wherever. and, this might sound silly, but what the fuck is the deal with these Ferris wheels. there are Ferris wheels blighting the London skyline. Paris has one, and it looks like shit. at this point, since the Manhattan skyline (which is definitely about as "iconic" as things get, and "iconic" is a word I almost always refuse to use in this new-ish lazy broadcaster and just-as-lazy reporter misuse of the word, although using it to apply to a visual phenomenon is closer to the original meaning...I am nothing if not pedantic) has been completely ruined by these new and completely hideous buildings that look like giant hypodermic needles, when are we gonna get OURS? remember: "You never know how great a kiss can feel/Till you stop at the top of the Ferris wheel?" obviously I do (Freddy Cannon/"Palisades Park").
