Who is winning this war? Has Trump given Iran
control of the Strait? What about the uranium? Can our Military Might force the
outcome we want? Consider outcomes in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan.
What message did Trump send the world by threatening
to destroy the Iranian Civilization? How does that statement affect America’s security
and who we see ourselves as a country?
How important is NATO to our security? The White
House is considering a plan to punish some members of the NATO alliance that
President Trump thinks were unhelpful to the U.S. and Israel during the Iran
war, according to administration officials. The proposal would involve moving
U.S. troops out of North Atlantic Treaty Organization member countries deemed
unhelpful to the Iran war effort and stationing them in countries
that were more supportive.
Does Hegseth’s religious views disqualify him from office?
Your thoughts about Hegseth overtly promoting Christianity as his personal “crusade”.
In fact, he carries a huge body tattoo
that promotes The Crusades in image and words. He apparently sees himself “sent
by G-d” to vanquish Muslims.
What’s the risk a nut-case takes this to heart and
“kills for God”? Hegseth’s closest spiritual adviser repeatedly
attacked Talarico on a podcast hosted by a former pastoral intern at their
church. After calling the Texas Democrat “a wolf,” a “demon,” a “snake” and an
“enemy,” the two talked about what they hope becomes of Talarico. “I pray
that God kills him,” one said. “Ultimately, that means killing his heart
and raising him up to new life in Christ.” The other concurred. “Right,
right. We want him crucified with Christ.” He repeated that he wants “death
and new life” for Talarico. “And if it would not be within God’s will to
do so, stop him by any means necessary,” he said. (ANY means? Really?)
VP Vance went to Hungry to campaign for Orban’s
reelection. How wise was this, politically, as voters see the Trump Administration
NOT focused on higher priority Domestic issues?
Your feeling about Gambling on events? And Polymarket?
Should we revisit the issue of Presidential Pardons? A
negative more than any plus?
Efforts to strike or rename events honoring United
Farm Workers leader César Chávez are accelerating after allegations
surfaced that he sexually abused girls and young women.
Trump’s focus is on securing the Western
Hemisphere. Is “Shield of the
Americas” the “Don-roe Doctrine”? Is his
foreign policy approach: “You take yours. And we’ll take ours.”
What does it mean if the U.S. government is insolvent? That’s
the conclusion of the Treasury Department’s own consolidated financial
statements for fiscal year 2025, released to near-total media silence. $6.06
trillion in total assets against $47.78 trillion in total liabilities
as of 9/302025.
Sunlight at night via mirrors: a big Night Light in
the Sky? A Start-Up Wants to Launch a Space Mirror. The company is seeking
F.C.C. approval to test an idea to reflect sunlight to Earth at night, possibly
powering solar panels. Is it worth the risk? What could go wrong?
Michael Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI. Trump
pardoned him. The Justice Department dismissed the case. Our government then
gave Flynn $1M for “wrongful conviction”. Can every J6 felon pardoned by
Trump look into suing America for “wrongful conviction”?
Stats show Crime falling. But, do you feel
Crime is truly on the decrease? Violent crime dropped significantly in
2025. Big cities saw murders down 19-21%. Robberies and aggravated assaults
also down, with some metrics falling below pre-pandemic levels to 100-year
lows.
Is eliminating all standards for greenhouse gas
emissions in our best interests? How smart is it to totally disregard the
concerns of scientists vs. moderating how standards apply?
Re: Trans Sports. Do you Agree, or Disagree? Sport
already accommodates biological variation. Hormone therapy can mitigates
advantage so there is no clear evidence of systemic unfairness, and excluding
Trans athletes from women’s sports is inconsistent, unnecessary, and ethically
unjustified.
What good comes out of raising skepticism about
Vaccines? RFK jr.’s new “whole foods pyramid” focuses on Proteins and Fats.
(Have you tried Tallow?)
$3 meals? Agriculture Secretary Rollins
claims their revamped food pyramid leaves plenty of room for us to maintain a
healthy diet for as little as $3 a meal. Just eat “a piece of chicken, a piece
of broccoli”, “a corn tortilla” and “one other thing”.
NY Times: Are there any limits to your power? “My
own morality. My own mind. That’s the only thing that can stop me.”
