Yes Bill, we’ve all been witness to the destruction of the globalist movement. It’s what got us here. We may need to consider changing allegiance to nations that honor their citizens, borders and laws. Most of Europe will dissolve back into individual states and those who continue their globalist agenda will fail. Most already have. At least America has a leader willing to make the necessary changes to fight against the insanity and the foreign and domestic enemies the left has created. Not sure Bill if you would consider yourself foreign or domestic 🤔 Anyway wishing you a speedy recovery for your mental and physical health 🙏

According to the IAEA, Iran was recently about 99% complete in its enrichment efforts to attain material for nuclear weapons. Iran would then have enough material for 4 to 6 weapons. It has already fired a rocket that appears to be capable of reaching the capitals of Europe. It's a religious fanatical regime. In their minds, they're not losing, they're just getting closer to realizing their goal of reaching Islamic heaven. Bill doesn't appear to be concerned about any of this. He should be.

I remember! Was it not, only 2 weeks to flatten the curve. And you will own nothing and be gappy. They may have succeded.

David, for the most part I do not think Western thought has the history or capacity to really understand or internalized the Islamic threat. The threat is counter to Christian thought and diametrically opposed to the DNA diktat that holds life inherently revered. However, the power of fanaticism cannot be quantified. So maybe, just maybe will give Bill pass on this one?

I have to wonder if you are not in bed with Macron, Merz and Starmer. The EU dictators that have been voted out of office but refuse to leave while destroying their countries.

Great job of getting everything exactly upside down--Just like Trump and his patsies, like the incredibly obtuse (but very Christian warmonger) Hegseth.

Well a topic I understand and concur with. SOVEREIGN DEBT, among OTHERS, is HUUUGE and a BIG PROBLEM and the FED IS TRAPPED EITHER HARD DEFAULT ON BONDS which will NEVER happen or soft default by printing money which is inflationary and thus the FedSpeak about fighting inflation is pure JABBERWHOPPY.....and thus technically TRUMP IS RIGHT TO CAJOLE POWELL to LOWER RATES NOW....to start the printing presses and save the nation.....some cancers are incurable and cause near term death (pancreas and brain cancer mostly) and some are treatable and MIGHT be cured....breast cancer and early onset colon cancer and most skin cancers. PRINTING MONEY is the latter. BUT WE SHALL SEE.

This I know. Printing money is inflationary and that is GOOD FOR GOLD on PAPER, but bad for CONSUMERS in REAL TERMS.....thus a LIFEBOAT OFF TITANIC but not a wealth builder really. I AM IN THE LIFEBOAT. The end.

Yep - kick the can down the road.....blame past administrations (including all but his) for where the U.S. sits today. And, good ol' Trump is fighting the "good" fight. Strategy - who needs a strategy - just gets in your way from doing he thinks today. Save the dollar by printing more.....going to get chaotic and quickly. Yep - bomb them into submission then quickly call it a WIN! Has anything Trump and his gang done that would fit "a win" by anyone's standards with a lick of sense. Chaos, Chaos, and more Chaos - and, of course, it isn't his fault. Watch Trump is like a re-run of Dumb and Dumber.

Iran was and is not now a threat to the US.

Why in the world are we at war with it?

What exactly are American military personnel dying for?

If the intent was to trigger a regime change, then the better strategy was to dust off the old CIA playbook whereby it enabled Iranian citizens to overthrow their prime minister and replace him with a un-elected king.

Now we are killing both Iran's indigenous change-makers and their theocratic oppressors.

And at a cost to nearly everyone on this planet.

Jim I like the sentiment of your comment though it may be abit naive. However, we could consult with Ed Udeling, as he access to thoughts and ideas that most of have no understanding.

Your comment about Burns and Allen made me think of Charlie McCarthy. If you ask people if they've ever heard of him, everybody of a certain age will say "Of course" but people below a

certain age will say, "Who?".

Patrick G's avatar

I remember them very well indeed. In fact, my late father RESEMBLED George Burns like TWINS....cigars included. Laughter, Twinkle in eyes and very very wise owl.

"Trump himself, had his father not been one of the richest men in the outer boroughs, might have been a successful owner of a bar...or maybe a car rental franchisee."

Defense attorney: OBJECTION! Requires conjecture on the part of the witness.

Judge: SUSTAINED! Counselor's question shall be stricken from the record.

I got sick, yesterday, when I listened to Trump’s idiotic speech. Is Bill old enough to remember “Goodnight Gracie?” Or did he watch reruns?

Bonner's 4 years and 1/2-months older than I. He's 77 and will be 78 in September. He hit on a great idea (International Living) and capitalized. He followed that success with multiple other writing/publishing hits. With the internet nowadays, anybody can see anything. I imagine he, as I, have extended awareness of stuff before my time via the experience of my parents and grandparents. Even so, the old vaudeville joke, "Say 'Goodnight', Gracie." was repeated in my own day on the Rowan and Martin "Laugh In", when Dan Rowan would say to Dick Martin upon closing, "Say 'Goodnight', Dick." and Martin would say, "Goodnight, Dick." It's lame, but I always laugh. Best always. PM
