We live in perilous times. But we've been here before. Time to openly challenge the Dictator Trump. "Where is the law? We have for years been drifting towards an unadulterated democracy or demigogism." Gen W. T. Sherman July 1863. youtube.com/watch?v=Jfoc...

World-wide wars can be sleep walked into; some, we step into like a pile of steamy cow dung. Will this be the never-ending global war? Like Orwell's 1984? Woe onto the war-makers who pushed our military into attacking Iran. May their names be reviled for generations.
