Some conclusions about the super wealthy Iโve known.
* Theyโre impulsive.
* They donโt trust anyone to get too close - everyone wants something from them.
* Theyโre transactional.
* Theyโre most comfortable around the rich.
* Theyโre insecure.
Theyโd make poor politicians.

Kegsbreathโs desperation to appear powerful is on full display.
He doesnโt have a scintilla of Kellyโs bravery, honor or integrity - and he knows it.
This petty move will backfire big time. Kellyโs supporters are legion.

Iโm old enough to remember when nobody but the rich could afford to fly. It was all first class luxury.
And women were expected to wear dresses and high heeled shoes all day.

Average and poor Americans are faced with the reality of their economic conditions every single day.
These politicians can lie all they want. Come voting day, reality will finally slap THEM in the face.

Russiaโs only โpeaceโ plan is to keep everything they have gained so far and take time to repair what Ukraine has destroyed. After rebuilding their infrastructure, they WILL attack again.
Why the pressure now? Why the threats? I believe itโs because the Russian economy is about to collapse.

I guess the experts are allowed to disagree. My question would be why -then- would Putin be interested in a peace plan now if their goal was to take all of Ukraine.

Ukraine Given Impossible Choice -- Capitulation Demanded by Trump
Trump has delivered an ultimatum to Ukraine that they must sign and accept Russia's capitulation demands by Thanksgiving or else he will cut off all weapons deliveries and intel sharing with Ukraine. Trump is demanding that Ukraine give up territory.

Itโs interesting that the US news doesnโt talk about the ongoing successes of Ukrainian drone strikes on oil infrastructure deep inside Russia. Betting Russia will be bankrupt before too long.

Iโm a retired public high school teacher. Neither the teachers nor most students liked brown nosing.
Trump is so f*n stupid that he doesnโt even recognize a cheap suck up when he hears it. In fact, he encourages it.

Iโm a retired public high school teacher. Any kind of sucking up to the teacher was loudly heckled by everyone in the class. Being a brown-noser was a reputation no kid wanted to have.

Chris Wright: CEO of 2nd largest oil fracking company gives $403,390 to Trumpโs campaigns. Net worth $ 171 m.
Trump picks him to run the Dept of Energy.
Wright takes a wrecking ball to climate policies, regulations, promotes more drilling & coal production.
Still kissing Trumpโs ass.
