Trump Just Sealed Soybean Farmers’ Fate [forbes.

Soybean farmers are just the smallest problem. Global warming will be one of Trump's biggest 'successes'. On PBS there was a program about what was happening in the north. The Alaska Highway and many major structures were built on permafrost- both are experiencing much damage by the melting.

I agree with James; thanks for putting that quote on. I agree with the term, "linguistic fascism"- and in this warped and twisted society, if a person uncovers the obvious, they are some kind of 'fungus on society'. Being "a person of colour", like I am, I enjoy talking to thinking people of any colour. As far as my skin, at my age, it is a 'sorta' wrinkled, grey-pinky colour. In the current, politically-correct holiness, the term "colour" is to be applied only to a certain group though- so we have "people of colour", and 'people with no colour'. Let's see, something with no colour would be very difficult to see, in fact it would be invisible: 'the visible and the invisible people', and so-called 'intelligent' people, casually, let this drop out of their gob, as if it was supposed to have some meaning. ...and this is just starting into the can of worms; so much blather, with nothing said!

Diogenes comments on Jul 25, 2019:

I watched the first 1.5 hours, till the break. The major point that I noticed, especially from Collins, was that they were trying to make a fool of Mueller and make him appear to be a moron. How? These questions with the 100 or so words, with the 20 clauses, delivered at jet-speed. Was this practiced and set up before hand? Of course! Were they interested in an answer---- or making a fool of Mueller? Mueller should have gone along with the game- and repeatedly ask them to "Repeat please". It was the 'Republicons' who made fools of themselves while trying to pull this farce.

But never to be forgotten, of course, there was much danger in saying what he said at that time. Kids, of this generation, could never imagine what a hold the religious element had on life such a short time ago- 'every business locked up tight on the 'first' day of the week.'
