  1. Welcome to the fabulous land of Universal Healthcare and Child Tax Benefits. No country is perfect and we do have some problems but we make an effort to help the people and recognize that we have more to do.

  2. There were terrorist attacks during Trump's presidency -- and Jimmy Carter wins the 'no wars' prize. The Israel-Hamas conflict can be tracked back to Trump. When he gave the Golan Heights to Israel and moved the embassy to Jerusalem, Hamas got busy planning the October 7 attack. "Donald Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal in one of the dumbest moves of his presidency—the dumbest when it comes to foreign policy. Trump’s move on May 8, 2018, set the stage for whatever disasters may come of it. By the time he pulled the plug, Iran was well on its way to dismantling its nuclear program. International inspectors, who were granted full access to suspect sites, said in all of their routine reports that Iran was in full compliance with the deal’s terms. Now the inspectors are gone, and Iran is closer to building an atom bomb than it ever has been. Why did Trump abrogate the deal? First, he didn’t much like arms-control agreements of any sort. Second, he particularly distrusted Iran, a view bolstered by his friendship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (ignoring the fact that most Israeli military and intelligence officers supported the deal). Finally, and perhaps most significantly: To Trump’s mind, nothing Obama ever did could be touted as a success, so the Iran deal—a resounding success by all objective measures—had to be pummeled as (in Trump’s oft-repeated words) “the worst deal ever.” Reuters

  3. "Republicans Finally Admit They Have No Incriminating Evidence on Joe Biden. Republicans’ big investigation into the Biden family has revealed … not a lot. The House GOP accused Joe Biden and his family on Wednesday of engaging in business with foreign entities—but were unable to provide any actual evidence linking the president to any wrongdoing. House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer released a 65-page memo detailing a sprawling investigation into Biden and some of his relatives, particularly his son Hunter Biden. Nowhere in the massive document was there a specific allegation of a crime committed by Biden or any of his relatives. During a press conference explaining the investigation, Comer was asked if he had evidence directly linking Biden to corruption. The Kentucky Republican hemmed and hawed but ultimately admitted he didn’t." New Republic

  4.  @TylerM-z3d  Canada scored the top spot in "Quality of Life" and "Social Purpose," too. It looks like our country gained some serious bragging rights this year according to the 2021 "Best Countries in the World" U.S. News Report, where Canada ranked number one overall.

  5. So many gullible rubes keep following the Mango Menace despite all the warning signs. "The ‘big rip-off’: how Trump exploited his fans with ‘election defense’ fund. The former president used the donations to a nonexistent legal defense fund for his hotels and the J6 Ellipse rally." The Guardian
