    Musk scuttles last minute budget deal

    People in silos,dearth of reliable vetted print media w/sources(multiple) overseen by a editor and a ombudsman who value TRUTH and retract when wrong,BS online "news" that is algorithm driven is LARGELY responsible for how we ended up here IMO. I'm in a city of 95K in MA and my cities newspaper...

    He's all over the board,the guy is SO visually stimulated he prob thinks Trudeau is wimpy and he can own/intimidate him, I've always had warm feelings for Canada/Canadians and believe the US is blessed to have such a fine neighbor to the north. I just hope Canadians keep a open mind and don't...

    Musk scuttles last minute budget deal

    Yeah if only NASA wasn't relying heavily on him for their space program,seen a no. (I'm not positive exactly) that he's building rockets at 30X less than it would cost NASA. The type of bureaucratic corruption that has the Pentagon spending 500$ on a galvanized screw,problem is he thinks he can...

    I invested time and thought responding to his post and wasn't insulted by him in my mind,I think I respectfully countered his opinion w/some known facts,my response was also bereft of any insults or obscenities, OH WELL.

    Musk scuttles last minute budget deal

    I just feel Musk's influence combined w/the fact that he is UNELECTED and ran no for Fed. Govt. position eye popping,what precedent does it set that billionaires can latch on to a Pres's coat-tails through contributions and be picked to run a unofficial Govt accounting "office"? I'm not naive...

    Agree,well aware of all his "Sarmats",I just don't think he's insane,I've ALWAYS worried about nukes,on one hand humanity is always at risk w/the number of warheads out there,yet on the other they've probably prevented some big conventional wars between state actors. Maybe it's naive to hope the...

    Putin's military is gutted,I don't think he could even handle the addition of Poland's armed forces intervention in Ukraine at this point never mind NATO's full commitment. Russia's pop. is too small now and he won't live long enough to rebuild his forces to threaten a invasion of Europe even...

    Yeah,I agree w/that,thing is how the hell is a man pushing 80 lacking any form of humility given his advanced age,one benefit of age is perspective,and I think that by 50 yrs. of age most men have the wisdom that regulates everything being ego driven. This guy is a fat ass,out of shape,spoiled...

    Happy Thanksgiving - what a happy time for America and the world

    Biden meant well,I believe his heart/ morals are in the right place,his age and the R's use of lies and disinformation coupled w/his heart sinking debate performance spelled doom. The last Stimulus package overheated the economy and the R's ran w/that,how Americans put such a morally bankrupt...

    Happy Thanksgiving - what a happy time for America and the world

    R's are deficit hawks w/a D pres. and Congress control,flip the coin and it's Tax cuts to those who can and should pay,deregulation that SCREWS the consumer deficit be damned, and the rise of the Evangelical right's influence in National politics is a COMPLETE middle finger to the separation of...
