No money left for defending Ukraine: (Cheney's Halliburton were awarded 40 billion in contracts.) www.ft.com/content/7f43...

Nope. Money (Citizens United) has already decided the outcome. www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

Not included in this article; twenty thousand drones promised to Ukraine were rerouted to the middle-east. Also, the US embassy for Iran has been evacuated. We're going to war...in the Middle-east...again... www.newsweek.com/iran-five-si....

A friend from Ukraine was chatting just now when this came up: "All of us 'little people' are nothing more than political and missile fodder for rich politicians." He has Putin, we have Drumf. With Drumf, we stand on the precipice of martial law. At that point, I'm not sure which is worse.

Have a great week everyone, and try not to get too caught up in the gears of corruption and capitalism. 😊

Anybody else stark-raving-mad at Democratic Party 'leadership?' I am going to change my voter party affiliation to 'Independent' and they'll have to earn it back. It wasn't a reelection campaign, it was a reboot of fucking 'Weekend at Bernie's.' GRRRrrrrrrrr...!

The rest of the free world BETTER step up, because I guarantee you, Ukraine will be the first to either prevail or fall, and the rest of the world will be next. Evil madmen are testing us for our appetite to defend freedom. alerts.in.ua/en

Humans are social creatures? By nature, necessity or to their demise? One could easily argue that the rise in access to others is directly correlated to the destruction of the human race. This, then points to the fatal flaws of societal existence. Change my mind.
