I generally will not watch coverage from commercial media focusing on what Trump or the White House said. If a trusted media source needs to play a clip that is useful, that is all I need. I’m not going to listen to Pete Hegseth or Donald Trump ramble. Wasted time.

Actions. Facts. Analysis. 🚫lies

YouTube video by Al Jazeera English Khamenei assassinated: Iran's succession process explained

This article will differ from the one above, but does help with the general structure. An important detail is where they say there is an election. Not exactly. A small group of men tell the people exactly which men they are allowed to elect.
Iran elections and religious rulers.

Trump claims he won’t get bored. Yes. He gets bored anytime someone else talks about as much detail as these gentlemen are sharing. This is what he’s gotten us in the middle of. Everyone else has to do his work. Mideast Iran Qatar Saudi Arabia oil shipping bombing

In the so-called good times, there is a whole world structure of forcing the world to run on oil.

There is some need for plastics in specific equipment designed with durable plastic. Replacement would require recertification for aircraft and medical devices, as examples.

Iran, democracy, detailed report.

“anxiety”?, um, sure. But good overall.

This really matters. If the media is as stupid as conspiracy YouTube videos, we can’t expect the public to learn what is going on. Reporters need to learn what they are talking about before on air.

It’s not the job of just attacking and talking over your guests.

It’s not to create clicks.

CBS Middle East reporter Courtney Keeley explains Iranian resistor secret coded Messages. When one person says to the other, they are OK, that is secret code for I am fine.

CBS mistakenly implies the people want Reza Pahlavi as new head of state. He’s clear every time he is not running for office.

My sister-in-law was permanently removed from Facebook for saying Melania should be deposed. I don’t think the Meta person knew what the word deposed meant and didn’t want to look it up.

Oops. I thought it meant brought to court. It does mean violently overthrown. Oh boy. I will tell her.

Andy Borowitz (@borowitzreport) When this shitshow is over, all the assets of the Trump family should be seized to pay for the reconstruction of the USA.

When the United States, no longer deals in oil, (Which actually will mean reduction to a few% of current use), we will no longer have the need to make arrangement with oil dictators.

We should be competing to produce modern energy and modern vehicles.

Oil industry has us set up to commit crimes.

Daily, I read professional analysis of hospitals around the world. A regular part of the USA Hosp reports is this. Shootings that take place in hospitals.

Returning to normal is not enough. Cancel the right wing and go all the way for EU level laws.

That is one of the significant percentages. Men who would not vote for a woman is a factor requiring continuous education, exposing them in media & fiction to strong women leaders.

Only a handful of leading democracies haven’t had a woman head of government.

US, Japan, Italy, Spain, Netherlands.

Oh right. Bad wording. I meant it is one of the percentages. If it doesn’t have any likes or repost, I’ll reword it.

I don’t base all my choices of support on what should be.

The serfs should have been free from ownership for a long time before it was accomplished.

I think about how to get the most freedom and rights for the people with the least amount of violence.

Or what is going to be the most effective.

Al Gore no longer has the range of policies to defend. He is much more relaxed and his goal is to defend the Earth. And he is an amazing speaker in the last 10 to 15 years.

I think Hillary Clinton will also become more and more relaxed as an elder stateswoman.

When I’m interviewing somebody for a job, I let them know. I don’t want video. The conversations about understanding & not appearances.

Reality is, when we are choosing somebody among the best as a candidate, communication is a factor.

Al Gore in 2000 also had trouble speaking to the people.

All he has to do is switch parties and he can accomplish something.

Another way to look at it, if Republicans simply followed the constitution and Trump would not be able to do what he does.

They collectively decide they will ignore the constitution to keep their jobs.

She definitely gets warmed up on occasion. She gets comfortable and then she suddenly just flows like one of your friends.

Melania is not held to any standard. There are no expectations she will think anything complicated enough to defend.

Hillary Clinton on the other hand is always involved in something. She represents many issues & is always been called to defend every word she has ever said and everyone she’s met.

I only completed one book by Hillary Clinton, It takes a village. She’s very intelligent & very articulate. She has an amazing history.

My opinion is part of her negatives come from communication style. She doesn’t have a smooth ability for less intellectual conversation like her husband or Obama.

Split image: Top shows Hillary Clinton with text, How come the reporters asked her a million times why she didn’t leave her cheating husband, and bottom shows Melania Trump with text, but nobody asked her the same?

It might work short term if it is devisive. Before midterms he will screw it up, not help the people of Iran, support an authoritarian.

I get one vote.

I have a voice to express my understanding and opinions.

In turn, I read what I see and seek to understand the intent and information.

I research and share what I find.

Providing factual information is different than my feelings or opinions.

U.S. courts determined whether “the people” in the Fourth Amendment includes non-citizens through constitutional interpretation in a series of Supreme Court decisions focusing on presence and connection to the United States, not citizenship.

Yick Wo v. Hopkins
Wong Wing v. United States

The right of the people to be secure in their persons houses papers & effects against unreasonable searches & seizures shall not be violated &no Warrants issue but upon probable cause supported by Oath or affirmation & particularly describing the place to be searched &persons or things to be seized.

Successful business so far: selling the U.S. government.

He and his family and friends all need to be prosecuted.

We need to take everything from Jarred Kushner and Donald Trump through due process.

YouTube video by MS NOW How we know Trump didn't attack Iran to help Iranians

How we know Trump didn’t attack Iran to help Iranians.

Big problem. Trump doesn’t care about anyone.

I’m guessing he’ll blame Iranians soon & support a new dictator.

But they do have a chance. Trump gets bored with most things. Others may end up controlling the narrative.
