Alan Brinkley wrote the two primary textbooks that I studied for my basic United States history course back in college. In this lecture from 2012, he goes into what caused the Great Depression and what brought us out of it. youtu.be/JVFnLDjLIN8?...

I've been baking drumsticks. After asking friends for advice, I finally got them crispy on the outside by broiling them after baking them. Perfect.

If there's a god (that likes me) I want to ask a favor. I never made a habit of cursing people (asking you to take your vengeance by blessing me instead of cursing my enemies) but if these clowns are about to destroy the country just smite them down. Use lightning bolts if at all possible. Thanks.

Yes, our country goes back and forth between too much regulation and not enough regulation. The thing is, "too much regulation," means rich people won't make as much money while, "not enough regulation," means thousands of poor people will die because of what unaccountable rich people are doing.

If someone is coal miner, has a disease from that job, and voted for Trump, we should be fighting for their wellbeing. When we talk about Medicare for All, that means ALL. EVERYONE. EVEN TRUMP SUPPORTERS. Humanity must be central to the movement for progress.

For decades, I've heard Republicans argue that the poor should be taken care of by their churches or by their families or by private charities instead of being taken care of by the government. Yea. That has never happened in the history of the world. Not in America. Not in the Bible. Nowhere. (1)

We can't put our robots to work in our factories if our factories are located in China. Time to bring manufacturing jobs back to America. 🤔

FUN FACT: There was more illegal immigration back in the 1980s and 1990s than there has been during this past twenty years. Why wasn't it a state of emergency back in those days? usafacts.org/articles/wha...
