Banda

The citizens of Banda, India, should listen to President Trump. There is no such thing as global warming. It's all in their minds. Yup.

Outrageous

Trump is saying that traffic stops by ICE officers should continue in order to corral "criminals." They were suspended, of course, after two motorists were shot to death by ICE police. Trump ignores the fact that most of those arrested are hard-working, law-abiding residents. Only a tiny fraction of those placed in detention have criminal records. Trump's claims are outrageous and are hurting friends and neighbors.

You Can't: We Can

President Trump has told Iran that it can't impose tolls on ships passing through the strait of Hormuz but he is proposing a toll for American protection of shipping. This comes after he loudly proclaimed the strait is international waters and should remain toll free. Once again he is talking out of the both sides of his mouth and confusing everyone.

Never Ending?

The National Park Service is draining the reflecting pool again. To fix it again. When will it end? Of course, Trump says it wasn't his problem. It was vandals. Unlikely.

Threats

These kind of threats and counter threats accomplish nothing except the destruction of peace.

How?

How did he get this far with all of his negatives? Voters were willing to overlook a lot, but his past caught up with him. Now Democrats have a major challenge and little time to tackle it.

Split

The American Jewish community is split in its support of Israel. Religious Jews continue to favor the government despite its demolition of Gaza. Secular Jews don't. If I were Netanyahu, I would be worried. Israel's strongest supporter has been the US. If the US moves away, Israel's long-term troubles will only get worse. It is a testament to the idea of make peace, not war.
