Mueller Report: The Comic Book? The Screen Play? An Opera?
Every single member of Congress I know, has read the Mueller Report, carefully. But I don't think anyone else has! Interviewed by Jake Tapper last Sunday, Justin Amash said that he thinks that "less than 15%" of members (of both parties) had read the report. Yesterday, writing for *Business Insider*, Mark Bowden, author of *Black Hawk Down* and *Killing Pablo*, and illustrator Chad Hurd presented a kind of simplified version of the 448 page-- sometimes dull as dishwater-- Mueller Report. Their version is a gripping narrative meant to hold someone's-- even a congressmember's-- atte...more »

public debt owed to China, as % of GDP; Edgar Cayce in 2100 AD in Nebraska

Moreover, numerous conditions are attached to the loans that weigh heavily on their recipients. Whereas Western governments and multilateral organizations generally attach low interest rates and long repayment periods to their loans, China tends to impose short periods and higher rates.

On The Frustrated and Clueless Atheists
The people who are the first to hop aboard the bandwagon of a philosophy which claims to possess the “one and only truth” are usually the frustrated and clueless atheists who feel alienated from their own culture and have started yearning for a new “god”. Their need for a new god is both psychological and spiritual. They want to lose their personal identity (and with it their frustrations and cluelessness) in a movement that provides them with the satisfaction of denying religion while assuming a godlike persona—of a being who is perfectly moral, perfectly intelligent, and full of k... more »

July 11: Keep an eye on Iran.
For much of the nineteenth century, Iran has been a democracy - if sometimes a limited one. Until right after World War Two, it was often a limited one - limited by the clerics and limited by the British who regarded Iranian oil as its own -free of charge.. That's why, after World War One, Britain forced Iran to supply all of the oil for all of the British fleet - forever. Britain also kept the people of Iran in poverty. Well, that's what empires do.
