  1. What they don't mention in this clip is the fact that Trump DISMANTLED all the epidemic preparedness measures Obama (and others before him) had put in place, simply because they had been put in place by Obama. That was petty. The fact that Trump ignored all and any warnings about the seriousness of the current pandemic and did his level best to do NOTHING to address the situation is criminal. The indications that he and his cadres did this mainly because the pandemic appeared to affect minority groups more than others (poor people, people of color, people with pre-existing conditions etc.) elevates this to a crime against humanity. Trump is directly responsible for at least half of the death toll so far. What the punishment for that will be will be remains to be seen, but punished he will be!

  2. Sadly, we European NATO nations have been, in one way or another, "sponging off" the excessive 'Murican "defense" expenditure (should be spelled "offense", seeing how many times they have invaded other countries, aided by their NATO allies). Well, that just ended. Period. 'Murica Alone is the future. I wonder how many decades it will take for 'Murica to regain even a semblance of the respect they used to have globally.

  3. Incredibly, only one of the Capitol Defenders gave in to the "standard" 'Murican impulse to draw their sidearm and pull the trigger, ONCE! According to reports, only one shot was fired by the Capitol police, one round that unfortunately ended in a fatality. Given the regular "shoot first, think later" mentality of 'Murican policemen, this is more than a miracle! How come? This simple "after-the-fact" fact should be cause for intense scrutiny - how can 'Murican cops be trained to show similar restraint in their everyday job? My theory: Make every 'Murican cop wear glasses that make EVERYONE look black, regardless of actual color. Current situation results: A recipe for a LOT of police shootings! The flip side: Glasses that make everyone look WHITE would be a recipe for a virtual elimination of police shootings - as evident after the Jan.6 insurrection: 'Murican policemen are reluctant to blindly blast away at "their own people".

  4. This man, not large in stature, is proving to be a giant among men. He is correct, the battle of Ukraine is only the first battle of WW3 and he is, in his own way, like Churchill in his time, fighting for what his nation wants above all else: To be able to choose their own destiny. In case anyone has been wondering, they want genuine democracy, to live like e.g. Western European nations do - in peace and prosperity. Slava Ukraini!

  5. The way things are going, Trump will be a convicted criminal by 2024, most likely wearing an orange jump-suit in a revenge-based 'Murican prison - and yet a sizeable fraction of the nation wants to elect him president again! My question: In a country where convicted criminals that have served their time are not even allowed to VOTE, how can a convicted criminal run for the highest office of the land? This twisted logic of the 'Murican "Judicial System" is a sign of a disintegrating nation, not an improving one.
