“Ukraine this week launched U.S.-made missiles at targets inside Russia.”

The unbiased liberal press is hard at it again.  Be afraid, be very afraid. Not long ago Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel - and - bragged about it.  That was a yawner for the unbiased liberal press.  Yet, that means Iran has the capability of striking targets 700 miles away...

Ukraine Fired U.S.-Made Missiles Into Russia for First Time, Officials Say

“The attack came just days after President Biden gave Ukraine permission to use the weapons to strike targets inside Russia.”

So, why aren't Democrats dancing in the streets?  Joe Biden can scapegoat North Korea (Kim made him do it) and escalate the war for the incoming administration.  Kiev can attack Moscow, Zelensky can attract more followers on social media, and Europe can ignore the thousands of miles of front line...

“The Florida senator is considered a foreign policy "hawk" towards Iran as well as China.”

Whaddya expect from the BBC?  But the Eurocentric trees BBC is reporting on may hide a forest.  Marco Rubio as Sec. State may be a foreign affairs pivot to the Americas.  Will Trump establish a new 'Monroe doctrine'?

“Pete Hegseth's nomination as head of the world's most powerful defence department has baffled Washington”

So, the Resistance doesn't die in darkness?  Looks like Trump knows how the bureaucracy protects itself.  Trump is proactively burning their bridges.

“I think, out of deference to us, he issued his resignation letter — effectively immediately — from Congress”

Do the trees hide a forest?  Gaetz won't be threatening Mike Johnson's Speaker position or throwing wrenches into Johnson's legislative efforts.  Is Trump using appointments from the House to obtain more control over legislation?  Doesn't Mike Johnson owe Trump something now?

How China reduced its reliance on US farm imports, softening trade war risks

“China must rely on self-reliance and feed itself ... If we can't hold our own rice bowls, we will be controlled by others ... Food security is a...”

Why does China understand how this stuff works -- and -- the United States doesn't?

Drop-Off in Democratic Votes Ignites Conspiracy Theories on Left and Right

“There is nothing suspicious about the shift in Democratic fortunes. But partisans from across the spectrum are questioning the results, for...”

There's nothing to see here.  Really.  No less authority than the unbiased liberal press has assured us that our eyes are lying.  And the New York Times found a meme on social media to back up their abject dismissal of any questions. Inevitable.  No.  But certainly expected.  Democrats are...

10.8 Million People Who Voted For Biden in 2020 Did Not Vote in 2024. Why?

“The past 8 years, Trump has done virtually everything imaginable to alienate women, non-whites, LGBTQ+, Reagan Republicans, etc.”

As usual, Democrats are in a frenzy trying to blame the loss by Kamala Harris on voters, the media, Republicans, foreign interference, and the reliable excuse of racism and misogyny.  But none of these gaslighting excuses explains the loss of 10 million Biden voters.  The drop in Democrat voter...

How Zoo School in Ohio is helping teens prep for careers - and college

“The career and technical education of today doesn't look the same as the vocational ed of years ago.”

Acting like animals on campus doesn't count. IMO, a revival of vocational education would do much to correct many problems with our primary education system.  But I question this emphasis on creating specialized schools based on narrow career choices.  How many zookeepers does the country really...
