There Were Very Fine People On Both Sides, Said Donald J. Trump
If you say anything mean about Trump's core supporters, he will come right to their defense-- as long as he thinks he can get away with it. I wonder if anyone will ask him about the neo-Nazi strategy that ABC News is reporting. The pandemic fits right into their insane agenda.

In an alert obtained by ABC News, the FBI’s New York office reports that "membe... more »

That means getting itself some mean new cruise missiles. Taiwan has begun production of a new land-attack cruise missile. But the island country still is badly outgunned by China’s own, much larger missile arsenal. *This first appeared in 2019 and is being reposted due to reader interest.* Taiwanese media on Aug. 4, 2019 reported that th... more »
