Washington’s delusion of endless world dominion: Is it finally collapsing?

 


We were never a Rome. But the political leadership in America have acted that way for decades. In the process they've depleted our national wealth on endless wars. The greatest beneficiaries: the military-industrial-complex:

...Washington's hubris is finding its nemesis in China's President Xi Jinping and his grand strategy for uniting Eurasia into the world's largest economic bloc. For two decades, as China climbed, step by step, toward global eminence, Washington's inside-the-Beltway power elite was blinded by its overarching dreams of eternal military omnipotence. In the process, from Bill Clinton's administration to Joe Biden's, Washington's China policy has morphed from illusion directly into a state of bipartisan delusion.

Send a Message to GOP Voter Suppression: Drink Coca Cola

Image
  The GOP is hopping mad that major corporations are refusing to go along with their voter suppression laws in Georgia. How dare they criticize their hateful agenda. Coca Cola is one of those companies. Top Republicans are incensed. We should pour fuel on the fire and support MLB (which pulled the allstar game from Atlanta) and Coca Cola. So drink up : A group of eight Republican state legislators sent a letter to the president of the Georgia Beverage Association over the weekend asking to have Coca-Cola products removed from their offices after the company's CEO criticized the state's controversial new voting law. "Given Coke's choice to cave to the pressure to an out-of-control cancel culture, we respectfully request all Coca-Cola Company products be removed from our office suite immediately," the group said in a letter that was obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The beverage giant, which is headquartered in Atlanta and employs about 4,000 Georgians,

Trump supporters discussed how to execute members of Congress prior to Capitol siege

  The evidence is overwhelming that the insurrection on January 6th was planned well in advance. But the architects have not been arrested. We must demand it. The masterminds of the attack on our republic cannot go unpunished: Others argued instead that a guillotine would showcase better symbolism, but lamented over the likely difficulties in transporting such a large blade. The comments are raising serious questions about the intelligence failures of law enforcement in the lead up to the failed insurrection. Although TheDonald.Win is no longer online, cached versions of the comments were collected in a 145-page report by the nonpartisan research group Advance Democracy. Daniel J. Jones, a former FBI analyst and former Senate investigator, told the Post that the report shows just how central of a role the now-defunct forum played in the attack on Jan. 6. “The website, TheDonald, played a far more central role in the January 6th Capitol insurrection than was previously known,” Jones sai

250,000 Americans Died Awaiting the Covid-19 Vaccination

Image
  Much of it is the fault of Donald Trump and the Republicans. But even under Biden the stories of our fellow citizens struggling to get vaccinated are many. Constant searches on online; refreshing of computer screens. This is no way to do it. There was no central place to get information about available centers for vaccinations. There should have been a hotline for people to call and get an appointment. Why force people to scramble to save their lives and the lives of their loved ones. In fact, no computer, no luck : More than 247,000 people have died of COVID-19 in the U.S. since vaccines first became available mid-December. Officials had warned that dispensing enough vaccines to reach herd immunity would take months. And with the initial vaccine supply extremely limited and the virus running rampant across the nation over the winter, it was a sad reality that some would contract COVID-19 and die before they could be inoculated. With surveys showing a large percentage of the U.S. pop
