I want politics to be about a better everyday life.

Bill Owens is a journalist, who has worked at “60 Minutes,” the finest and most venerable journalistic program in the United States, for 24 years, and for the last six as its executive producer.
He has been forced out of “60 Minutes” by the insatiable greed of Shari Redstone, who has demanded that Bill Owens bend the knee to Donald Trump.
Bill Owens did not bend the knee.
Bill Owens took a stand.
Thank you, Bill Owens.
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

President Biden at the Pope’s funeral in Italy today. Awesome that he’s there! Biden is a good, decent man who cares about others deeply.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

Wondering if Prigozhin will call all of his troops together -- those in African countries, and elsewhere -- to assist on his attack on pukin/his generals. That would be more than the motley crew of 25,000 which he has now. Also wondering if enough Russians are sick of the war with Ukraine (some of whom may know that truth about what pukin, et.al. have done) that they will refuse to fight with the Russian army against Preigozhin's mercenaries.
Here's another US historian and one surprisingly well connected to what is going on in the Ukraine/Russia situation - nadinbrzezinski.medium.… - she is worth supporting. But what worries me even more, is if Kadarov gets involved.
Hugh, great link! I don't have the expertise to know how accurate it is, but it had the ring of authority to it.
Thugly the Troll isn't very smart.
"Today, increasing reports of far-right violence, ultranationalism, and erosion of basic freedoms are giving the lie to the West’s initial euphoria. There are neo-Nazi pogroms against the Roma, rampant attacks on feminists and LGBT groups, book bans, and state-sponsored glorification of Nazi collaborators.
"These stories of Ukraine’s dark nationalism aren’t coming out of Moscow; they’re being filed by Western media, including US-funded Ra…

Seems like a good time remind people that the United States signed an agreement, known as the Budapest Memorandum, that we (along with other nations) would provide security assurances to Ukraine for giving up their nuclear arsenal. We cannot abandon them now. Republicans in Congress need to stand up for our ally and refuse to turn their back on Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine.
