Kushner bribe

vendredi 12 janvier 2018 à 01:00

Kushner "advises" the bully's officials about mid-east policy while taking a 30-million-dollar bribe from Israel.

Governor of Chihuahua

vendredi 12 janvier 2018 à 01:00

The governor of Chihuahua accused the Mexican federal government of attacking the state's finances in retaliation for Chihuahua's investigation of corruption in the 2016 election.

We Americans used to laugh at countries where corruption went so deep. Now we are in no position to laugh.

Australian heat

vendredi 12 janvier 2018 à 01:00

The heat around Sydney killed most of a colony of fruit-eating bats.

In a few decades, the species will no longer be found in that region. Many kinds of trees might disappear as a result, though individual trees will live on for a while.

Ice age myth

The "Imminent Mini Ice Age" Myth Is Back.

A weak solar cycle would cool the Earth just a little, and only temporarily.

Oprah for president

vendredi 12 janvier 2018 à 01:00

Starstruck Democrats support Oprah Winfrey for president — never mind that she has no political experience, no voting record, and little in the way of publicly stated political positions.

Chances are Winfrey would be better than the bully. You could say as much for any Democrat chosen at random. Obama was better than the bully. Clinton would have been better than the bully.

Obama and Clinton served the plutocrats. Winfrey, a billionaire, is pretty close to being a plutocrat. That doesn't absolutely prove she will be a plutocratist like Obama and Clinton: FDR came from a rich background and gave us the New Deal. Americans could count on him to do this because he had made his views, and his determination, very clear.

Winfrey grew up in poverty; perhaps she will champion the poor. But she has not committed to do this, let alone say how.

Why settle for less than Bernie Sanders?
