Yes, the USA southern border is all nonsense.

Mexico is an ally. There is nothing to fear. Mexico and the three Northern Triad countries of Central America are all allies to the USA.

These countries are overwhelmed with the climate crisis. A secondary issue is the drug cartels, but, they are dealing with the climate crisis as well. 

The migrants coming into the USA illegally face many problems and it is those problems that brings them to the USA. It is survival. Many are climate refugees. As allies facing a different struggle than war they come to us for relief. The majority of those crossing the USA border are poor and destitute without violence in mind or munitions to threaten anyone they meet at the border. The cartels are the only violent threat to Border Guards.

The migrants would still be home if the USA right wing extremist Republicans didn’t end the progressive programs of the USA to build those countries into stronger allies. Sure there is corruption. But, our programs were working, including priorities to end that corruption.

So. All the hubbub about the insecurity of the USA southern border is nothing but politics. There is absolutely nothing to fear from these people. They are being treated as chattel by the southern border states and being shipped north. The northern states need support from the federal government to absorb all the costs that go along with housing them, providing medical care, and processing them. 

Anyone know how many immigration courts are in the northern tier states?

(click here) It would seem as though migrants to the USA, be they legal or illegal, are peaceful people. They love freedom. 

The USA is a mighty nation of mostly moral people. Being the only remaining Superpower is an inconvenient responsibility and unfortunately Americans don’t have the luxury of looking the other way.

It is time Americans become aware of successful programs ended by the Trump White House of the very countries now shedding citizens as migrants headed north.

None of the Northern Triad governments are promoting Illegal migration. 

There is nothing to fear. I will say this, as illegal migrants come unprepared for cultural differences including language and the free flowing gun supply in the USA there is crime. But, that is more reason to incentivize the successful programs through USAid to these people to remain in their own countries.

The bottom line is the Republicans that are now in seats in the House and Senate are completely wrong in their priorities. It is highly unethical for freely elected officials to use their power to cause problems that lead to their own politics.

Fully fund Ukraine, Israel and return progressive programs to Central America. 

Russia is launching missiles at Ukraine?

So much for peace talks. Peace talks would require a ceasefire. Anyone care about this ceasefire?

Czar Putin has decided Russia is winning the war with Ukraine. Why? Politics. This is Putin Politics. Destroying Ukraine and rebuilding the Soviet Empire, not the USSR, but the former Russian Empire IS Putin Politics. Death has no limits to his ambitions. But, there is another reason he cited.

The other reason Is because the USA Republican Party has waved the white for the sake of their politics at the southern US border.

See, Czar Putin believes the war with Ukraine is a war of attrition, as does the free world, but, for very different reasons. The Free World views Russia declining in every aspect of sovereign authority but bolstered by its allies. Russia on the other hand does not see the will of the Ukraine people diminishing, only their associations with First World countries becoming delinked from the support Ukraine has received.

It is easy to look the other way as the USA did with WWII until the war came to Pearl Harbor and a sunken Lusitania. That is what will happen in the war with Ukraine.

As the USA Republicans play politics with the US southern border in order to keep their House majority, the wars in Ukraine and Israel will fall into disrepair and disorder. The focus of the American political system will shift from national security to international apathy only to find the enemy of Israel and Ukraine will be assaulting US sovereignty and its borders to shift the war from “over there” to here. Once that happens, and it will, Hezbollah and Venezuela are near border threats, what will NATO due with a two front war at Polish borders and in the USA?

What will happen then to a vibrant Middle Class and American economy as terrorists’ threat once again haunt Americans? What will it look like as NATO deploys on eastern borders to protect the European Union from Russian ambitions?

The absolute political foolishness of the extreme right wing of the Republican Party as demonstrated by the priorities of the U.S. House Speaker is a threat to American national security and every ally we have. As our resolve weakens to protect democracy at every turn the true ambitions of China will be felt in the Pacific and the question will become can the USA fight a three front war with terrorists domestically weakening the resolve of a once indomitable nation of Free People?

Israel and Ukraine require full backing from the Free World to maintain democracy as a viable governance to progress the future of peace and prosperity.

The knuckle draggers of the USA are Republicans.

They don’t care about their own self-interest. They are stupid and like it that way. The reason they love Trump is because he is as stupid as they are in sticking it to “the system” and declaring bankruptcy over and over as a business practice. He is the ultimate knuckle dragger and they love it. He is an abject failure of capitalism and they believe in it as if a religious doctrine. 

They like being stupid along with their sexually exploitive pastors and maintain cultural stupidity as a profit motive.

To prove my point further, Knuckle Dragger Extraordinaire is the US Speaker of the House. His entire district is a failure and example of how “the party” is served before the people. 

The Speaker of the House should be an example of how to legislate best to serve the people. The current Speaker is none of these things. 

Insurrectionist

 I don’t believe Trump’s involvement is in question and conservatives are ignoring the 14th Amendment. Something is wrong in the USA. The Supreme Court is throwing election authority to the States and the conservative judges ignore the 14th Amendment. There is something far afield when a court considers insurrection a political issue. 

Shame on Michigan.

Christmas 2023

Has the Middle East ever seen such disturbance in any holiday season? This is a result of violence by Jihadists who embrace death over life and prayer. 

The killing of Christians in the Middle East is nearly a sport, from Egypt (click here) to Bishops in celebration and prayer the deaths added together are alarming. 

There is a difference between Jihadists and governance for peace. One wants nothing more than annihilation of other faiths, while peace is the goal otherwise. There is no room for Jihadists in the Middle East as their missions, since bin Laden, are perverse and anti-God.

May the Middle East find peace, worship, and the choice of life over suicide. God does not ordain suicide or murder. May all those so very misguided come home to peace and life.

The true Russian president has been located in Siberia.

I am getting a little tired of criticism of Israel.

Hamas needs to surrender (click here) and end the occupation of Gaza. Hamas and its cohorts are terrorists that have taken control of Gaza a Palestinian territory. Gaza is not safe as exhibited by the slaughter of 1200 unarmed and innocent Israeli citizens on October 7th.

The war is justified because of the clear and present danger of Hamas. This is not a difficult issue. Hamas and other  jihadists occupied and occupies Gaza. They are murderers.

The jihadists built tunnels for nefarious reasons. There was no transportation subway. The tunnels ensnared the Palestinian people as human shields so the jihadists could carry out attacks on Israel over decades with impunity.

THE WORLD WATCHED as the terrorists took control of Palestinian territory. It was the jihadists that ruled in Gaza, not the Palestinian Authority. The jihadist are the problem, not Israel.

The hospitals were at the very least warehouses for munitions. Where in the civilized world do hospitals other than Gaza stockpile munitions in their basements! There is no debate here. If hospitals are to be safe they cannot harbor terrorists and their munitions to kill people.

Gaza on October 6, 2023 was allowed to exist. It can no more.

The Insurrection Amendment is real.

Trump broke an enormously important amendment to the USA Constitution. No one is above the law and no act of violence against judges is going to change that. Those unaccepting of the rule of law of the USA Constitution and acts violently are criminals.

This website has to qualify as citizen scientist of the year. It was the first to sound the warning that would lead to the evacuation of an entire town saving thousands of lives.

Citizen scientists around the world are the using heroes of Earth. It is remarkable to realize this website and its creator single handedly alerted an entire city of its potential fate. 

Absolutely amazing and so very dedicated to the truth.

Clarence Thomas needs to be impeached.

No one did this travesty to Thomas, he did it all by himself, except perhaps, pillow talking Ginny.

Thomas has to go!

$285,400. That's the salary for associate justices of the Supreme Court in 2023. The amount is less than the court's salary in 2000 when adjusted for inflation; the previous salary of $173,600 would be worth approximately $315,782 today.

More than a quarter million dollars in salary, a full time judicial staff, and expense budget and Thomas is blackmailing conservative legislators. 

December 18, 2023
By Alison Durkee

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas (click here) pressed a lawmaker in 2000 to raise justices’ salaries, sparking concerns among Republicans that he’d resign if Congress didn’t, ProPublica reported Monday—raising more speculation about an influx of gifts from wealthy friends that Thomas received in the ensuing years that have already sparked an ethics controversy at the court....

All of this is illegal. All of it. Seeking to intimidate a freely elected government official is illegal. It is just that simple. Thomas needs to up on charges for coercion. Accompanying  those charges his law license needs review and revocation. This level of unethical conduct of a Supreme Court Justice is at the very least appalling.

The difference between Thomas and the former Justice Souter is astounding. Souter was interested in his work and lived humbly all those years. As soon as he retired he had time to look for a home more suitable for his many books and family and moved to a love new home. But, his reasoning was impeccable. 

August 3, 2009

By Katie Zezima

While the new home is only eight miles from his rustic farmhouse, the two could be worlds apart.

...Justice Souter (click here) told a Weare neighbor, Jimmy Gilman, that the two-story farmhouse was not structurally sound enough to support the thousands of books he owns, according to The Concord Monitor, and that he wished to live on one level....

...“It was quite a shock to us to learn that he’s moving,” said Betty Straw, who taught Justice Souter in sixth grade. “While we’re sorry — we had hoped he would come back to Weare — we understand the circumstances. It seems more desirable to make a move, and we have to abide by his decision.”

Justice Souter bought the new home from Michele Perkins, the president of New England College in Henniker.

“My husband, James, and I have always admired and respected Justice Souter and are delighted that he has returned to New Hampshire,” President Perkins said in a statement. “We wish Justice Souter every happiness in his new home.”

Power vs governance

Why are the Republicans putting the USA southern border before allies? To keep their USA House majority. It has nothing to do with real governance; it is about power. 

The USA Senate Republicans believe they will take the Senate majority with Manchin leaving his seat. So, the House currently has a majority because of Republicans newly elected along the U.S. southern border. By both houses screaming about the border their politics and not policy are coming first. 

The Republicans believe either Trump or Manchin will be elected president and they will have both branches of government to outlaw abortion and continue with fossil fuel corruption.

Biden and Harris are interested in governance. 

Trump is interested in a forever dictatorship.

Manchin/Romney are the alternative backed by Big Oil and every other Big Anything that is looking for profit outside what good leadership actually brings. Basically, corruption to nullify any government regulation. Consumers be damned. 

That rounds out the 2024 elections. Screaming about the southern border is a mirage to the real agenda. 

Chris Christie has picked up support in New Hampshire by telling the truth about everything, including Trump. Hailey’s team is paying attention and changed her posture with Trump to come closer to Christie and it looks like it is working. Christie needs to call Hailey out on her copy cat style to his focus and single handed effort to bring morality to the Republican brand again.

Except for Christie, Republicans are toeing the Evangelical line of extremism for funding that leads to power brokering and not governance.

Oh, yeah, Musk and Bezos complain there aren’t enough people on Earth. That’s a profit statement. More people, more consumers, more people to buy what they are selling.

For four hours…

…Czar Vladimir Putin ranted on about his obsession with Ukraine. Where are the great accomplishments by Russians? None? None to obsess over and make the country proud? Only brutal hatred of Ukraine and the Free World for four boring hours. That is how the Russian Czar unites Russians? 

Smart bombs vs. Dumb bombs

Israel has munitions, they use what they use to defend their country. Perhaps Israel needs some Free World consulting in relation to the BEST defense now and in the future. 

The rockets used by the Jihadists are all dumb bombs but they effectively kill anyway. 

Grinch?

What statute is that?

There is no professional standard in Trump’s legal camp.

Immunity from the rule of law? That is anarchy. Isn’t that what happened on January 6th? Anarchy? 

Look, Trump assaulted his bodyguard because Trump wanted to be at the Capitol for the hangings. He wanted to supervise them.

The Secret Service protects “the President.” They don’t protect Donald John Trump. The President was denied his recreational activity at the Capitol Dome on January 6th because there was no reasonable way to protect “the President “ from a violent mob.

During Trump’s speech before the mob was directed to march to the Capitol he complained that the magnetometers were unnecessary because the mob loved him and any gun was never going to be used against him. He stated it to set the scene for the Capitol and demoralize the Secret Service. Trump wanted to supervise Pence and the electoral count. He absolutely did. He fully intended to be at the Capitol to change the delegates at the electoral count. Trump had alternate electors standing by to change the outcome of the election. Is Trump not as guilty as any other American already prosecuted and sentenced?

Immune? It was premeditated. It was a plot against the USA Constitution? Trump should be immune of such a crime?

No Truth will come of the U.S. House Investigation

The Republicans of the U.S. House want to create their own narrative. Their Speaker is a Trump puppet. Puppets don’t think for themselves.

What authors from the National Enquirer have written the script for the made for TV Impeachment?

Hunter Biden

Enough already. We know if he wasn’t the President’s son, the scrutiny of his life would not be this intense. Hunter Biden has had an enormous amount of loss in his life and to deprive him of the loss of personal freedom is just wrong. I am sure many people could point to other Americans claiming they had more loss that effected their lives. This is the President’s surviving son who has successfully overcome a wicked addiction.

What has been impressive was the fact he wrote a book in order to be transparent about his many ups and downs in life. I think Hunter Biden’s many, many prosecutions should be recognized in a pardon. The intense scrutiny of this man would never have occurred if he weren’t Joe Biden’s son. I think most people recognize the brutal politics involved. It is time to seriously consider a pardon for Hunter Biden. It might be different if he hadn’t turned his life around, but, he has and that is the true meaning of a pardon.

Israel did not start this war.

I think the generals are best to discuss tactics in Gaza. I have seen some pictures of the outcome of the tactics by Israel and the correctly targeted underground tunnels. Whether that targeting killed civilians and/or militants/combatants/Hamas/Islamic Jihad can only be known by the reporting of the dead. I have yet to hear that Israel has deliberately targeted civilians. The casualties are a result of an effective campaign by the military.

I think others need to measure criticism of Israel in factual terms and not inflammatory language. Facts are needed. Israel has extensive intelligence of Gaza. That intelligence was and is used in combat to conduct bombing, shelling and ground movement of troops. I think when Israel actually presents its facts others will be surprised at the accuracy of the targets. 

I realize the health care system in Gaza has collapsed. The reason for that is the fact Hamas had munitions stored in the basement of those buildings connected by tunnels. 

Israel wants its citizens safe. It has a strong military presence built over decades of time. Israel’s capacity is no surprise and neither is its intelligence capacity.

If Israel is to protect its citizens in a war with terrorists then it has to wage war that is effective. The definition of effective in war can be brutal within the understanding of Hamas’ occupation of Gaza.

I have yet heard alternatives to Israel’s invasion into Gaza. Israel is not going to surrender. Hamas and Islamic Jihad needs to surrender and lay down their arms. In doing so they need to release the hostages. 

The initial attack by Hamas into Israel was not just a few terrorists. There were many members of Hamas that murdered that day. Israel did not ask for this war. Hamas is the blatant aggressor.

I remind that Gaza was once governed by Israel. It was under the late Prime Minister Sharon that Israel left Gaza for the hope of peace. Israel knows how to govern Gaza.  Deciding now the governance of Gaza requires a peace process and there are no current peace processes in Gaza. The militants/combatants need to surrender, release hostages, and allow the humanitarian effort to take over the activities in Gaza. It is what all the people want, yet the combatants show no interest in protecting lives of Palestinians and Israelis.

The rise of jihadists in the region supported by Iran only creates hatred and mistrust. How is any peace process going to work if these dynamics in the region continue? 

You will excuse me, but, Gaza given to Palestinian extremist terrorists is a huge failure. It is a failure of the anticipated peace that resulted in putting the Palestinian people in the middle resulting in their victimization as human shields. Residential areas in Gaza and the very hospitals were governed by putting civilians at risk. That was the governance Israel faced when the war was declared. Israel had and has few options to end the endemic treat of terrorists. When is the world going to accept this failure of international policy that allowed the Palestinians to be used by terrorists as human shields? 

Where is Alexey Navalny?

Everyone should have had this figured out; Putin is seeking to renew his dictatorship and his favorite opponent disappears within Russia’s prison system.

This is a human rights abuse. Hiding people from their loved ones is a violation of their human rights. 

Border Crossing

The Republicans can write as many words into law as they want to make political statements, but, it won’t stop the human toll at the U.S. southern border. This has been going on for decades.

The legal authority to use force is against the drug cartels and they use the legal border crossings and trucks to bring their goods to market. They use shorelines and half subs as well.

The ONLY proven method of ending illegal border crossings is to work with the countries of the northern triad to stabilize governments, stop drug trafficking, and establish an economy where people work a job to provide a living for families. These countries are also stressed by the collapsing climate of Earth. 

So, the Republicans in Congress are nothing more than cowardly Paper Tigers.  

US Republicans are backing Russia

May they have many babies.

A line of Ukraine’s artillery has stopped shelling smaller groups of the Russian military because it is running out of US ammunition. The Republicans in the USA have refused Ukraine it’s much needed munitions and now we are looking at engagement with NATO as soon as there is a collapse of the Ukrainian military.

How stupid is this?

It is more than stupid, it is Anti-American while defeating our national security interests. 

Basically, the Republicans of the USA are giving permission to genocide!

I don’t want to hear squat about the cost because Ukraine has some of the most productive farmland in the world. It will pay its bills in the next generation if necessary. The USA should be grateful for the opportunity to help these people survive a brutal onslaught by a ruthless, faithless, and genocidal communist dictator!

7000 Hamas

Israel is reporting there are 7000 Hamas terrorists dead. There is escalation of fighting in the north and the southern city of Khan Younis is being targeted as Hamas moves about Gaza. 

The IDF is a significant fighting force but it is being met with resistance and casualties (click here.) Hamas is not a rag tag handful of terrorists that fly commercial jets into skylines. They are armed and mentored by Iran.

Therefore.

The war as declared by Israel will be on.

UN Resolution

Who wrote the UN Resolution? It was all one sided exonerating Hamas from the crimes it has committed and continues to commit.

There are still hostages.

Hamas broke the previous ceasefire.

They use the Palestinians as human shields. 

Israeli intelligence has found the plans Hamas had for Israel.

Where is President Abbas in moving the people to the West Bank? 

Those that demand a ceasefire by Israel make no such demand of Hamas. Hamas is a terrorist organization that continues to fight Israeli forces. What plan is the UN proposing for Israel to end the hostilities of Hamas? 

The countries ranting on about the USA and the UK are among the criminals with charges at the world court. I hardly call any of them humanitarian in any of their demonstrable values. Their statements were nothing more than staged propaganda.

The UAE has been instrumental in the past, what now that everything is once again in chaos and violence. The answer here seems simple to me; Hamas is to surrender, end all violence, release the remaining Israeli hostages, and end the occupation of Palestinian lands. 

Hamas can end this violence now.

Evening is quickly approaching.

Happy Hanukkah to all. Eight beautiful days of remembrance while looking toward a future of peace. It is possible. Let the Supernova Sukkot Gathering find a special meaning this year and for all years to come.

So, Texas murderer needed a job.

That is Texas. God forbid there should be any concern for the human condition. God forbid there are food stamps, unemployment, Medicaid, or welfare. If a Texan has no income or sufficient income to support themselves and/or their many children then put your life and health in the line and start drilling for oil and gas.

There is so much violence in that state. They live and die by the gun. I take it the border had little or nothing to do with these unnecessary deaths.

There is also enforced racism in that state. I don’t recall the case, but, a community protested the death of a Hispanic man while law enforcement walked away without a question. Racism exists in all aspects of Texas including healthcare.

But, in this case, a desperate man seeking employment did not have the moral appreciation for life of others over their deaths to demonstrate his pain.

Well.

It sounds like Texas.

There is ALWAYS only one winner.

There is always one winner in any of the Republican debates and it is the candidate that has placed THE TRUTH at the center of his campaign. The truth is the strength of democracy and the weakness the Republicans chronically enter into our democracy is at the very least unethical, but, many times is illegal like George Santos and his mentor Donald John Trump.

GO, CHRIS CHRISTIE, GO!

The USA is not fighting for it's life.

I am waiting for the Republicans to grow up. This is ridiculous.

The Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the entire Joint Chiefs should be called up on for their opinion (click here) of the aid packages to our allies as it is a national security issue.

Providing support to allies is an OBLIGATION that ensures the USA national security. Every country the USA calls allies is such for the protection of the USA. They are vital to our own national security, not just theirs. Tuberville finally relented and now this mess. 

WHY IS THERE A SIXTY VOTE THRESHOLD ON NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUES?

Every one of those three countries holds the line on threats to the USA. Every one of those countries. Not simply one or the other, but, all three are pivotal to USA national security interests and the Republicans are playing politics.

The American people need to wake up to all this gaming and put people in office that actually belong there.

The Senate has blocked (click here) a supplemental funding bill that included financial aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan as well as provisions aimed at bolstering border security. The vote, which fell mostly along party lines, increases the likelihood that Congress will fail to approve more funding for Ukraine before the end of the year, as the White House has warned that Kyiv is desperately in need of more aid.

The vote was 49 to 51, as every Senate Republican opposed advancing the legislation. Sixty votes were needed to take up the bill. Republicans in both chambers of Congress had demanded stricter border regulations in exchange for their support, and they said the bill failed to meet their requirements....

The border issues are non-issues. The Republicans are making a mountain out of a mole hill. The people coming to the USA southern are not violence militias. The are unarmed human beings. There is very little to discuss. The funding for their countries were cut in past administrations and now there are migrations north because of the lack of employment and services.

The issue of the USA southern border has absolutely NOTHING to do with the security interests of Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

NOTHING!!!

An ongoing rise in the number of migrants (click here) coming from Central America’s so-called Northern Triangle—comprised of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras—has cast a spotlight on a long-suffering part of the world. Governments in the region have made some efforts to mitigate the poverty, violence, and corruption that are driving citizens away, but the problems remain widespread.

Recent U.S. administrations have varied in their responses to the Northern Triangle challenge, which have included changes to foreign aid and U.S. immigration policies. So far, the Joe Biden administration has proposed a $4 billion plan to address the root causes of migration from Central America, worked to stimulate private-sector investment in the region, and extended temporary legal protections for certain migrant groups....

The southern border issues HAS TO BE SOLVED, not ignored!!!!

This is so ridiculously political it is disgusting. We know what works and why it works. This is all an enflamed issue because the Republicans like the politics. it is the ONLY reason the southern border is in the middle of national security funding for three allied countries in desperate need of the USA's help.

What is being said about the USA Border is unethical and highly immoral. People are dying when they should be home working and building their country. But, because previous administrations cut funding and destroyed the progress made this is now a political focus. Republicans are NOT RESPONSIBLE and DO NOT GOVERN!

Premediated political deception

December 5, 2023
By Annie Grayer

Republicans on the House Oversight Committee (click here) released a document showing payment from Hunter Biden’s business entity, Owasco PC, to President Joe Biden when he was not in office, but neglected to include evidence that the president’s son was repaying his father for a car.

The redacted document provided to CNN shows that an account affiliated with Hunter Biden paid Joe Biden $1,380 on September 17, 2018. The document states the payments would occur on a monthly basis, and the panel is aware of at least three monthly payments to Joe Biden in total, a source familiar with the committee’s work told CNN.

But documents provided to CNN appear to show that Hunter Biden was repaying his father for a Ford Raptor, information that had already been publicized. A source familiar with the payment told CNN that Hunter Biden’s credit was low at the time while he was struggling with addiction, so he couldn’t finance the car and his father signed for the car, which was in Joe Biden’s name....

So while non-news is being scandalized by the US House. The Speaker is admitting he is anti-American. Anyone notice or is everyone more interested in car payments?

The US House Speaker uses government film to distract from the truth by carrying out paternalism toward criminals involved in the January 6th crimes. He deliberately blurred the images of the government films so those carrying out the crimes on January 6th can't be identified. Does that make the US House Speaker an accomplice after the fact?

So Hunter Biden pays his father back for a truck purchase out of an account where deposits were made for his work abroad, even China and the US House Speaker is pretending to protect insurgents (not rioters) from identification. Who in particular did Johnson believe he needed to protect? Maybe the US House ethics committee needs to ask him that question.

December 5, 2023

By Ryan J. Reilly 

"We don’t want them to be retaliated against (click here) and to be charged by the DOJ,” the House speaker said. His office later noted that DOJ already has the raw footage.

Washington - Speaker Mike Johnson said Tuesday that House Republicans are blurring footage from the Capitol attack before releasing it publicly because they don't want Jan. 6 rioters to be charged with crimes.

"We have to blur some faces of persons who participated in the events of that day because we don’t want them to be retaliated against and to be charged by the DOJ," Johnson said Tuesday.

Johnson, who was deeply involved in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election based on false claims of mass election fraud, said that people should do their own research into the Capitol attack.

The speaker said he is releasing the footage to counter the Jan. 6 Committee's presentation of the riot.

“We want the American people to draw their own conclusions,” Johnson said. “I don’t think partisan elected officials in Washington should present a narrative and expect that it should be seen as the ultimate truth.”...

COP 28

Wealthy participants can’t get their jets off the ground (click here).

Al Gore took on a malicious host of COP28 (click here).

While the UAE emits more and more greenhouse gas emissions, Brazil is launching restoration of the rainforest (click here).

I ask, how are we supposed to preserve and restore Earth without bans on greenhouse gas emissions (click here).

Israel

Hamas attacked Israel again (click here.) It is impossible to overlook an increase in aggression when there is suppose to be a ceasefire.

There is a website pointing to evacuation areas for the Palestinians. The Israel military website is written in Arabic. 

The New York Times has a report about the displaced Palestinians (click here). I am certain the article is meant to be accusatory, but, the reality is that the maps are proof many Palestinians successfully lived through the retaliatory strikes by Israel of Gaza. It is safe to say the Palestinians “get it.”
