Remember healthcare? The administration has embarked on a passive aggressive campaign to subvert the ACA: Cost-sharing subsidies are approved month by month with the implication that they could suddenly stop Withholding financial support for “navigators” Suggesting that the IRS won’t enforce mandates. Rather than accepting the failure to repeal and replace the plan is to create uncertainty so that the markets “implode” putting millions of people in jeopardy for the sake of an ego. What is behind this cowardly . . .
Adios, Trump
Always knew Trump’s presidency would carry an asterisk next to his name.

Destroyers and Sleep Deprivation
At the risk of sounding unpatriotic, I place the blame for the Navy’s recent lethal collisions between their state-of-the-art destroyers and huge lumbering cargo ships on the top brass. The excuse percolating out of the fog is that the Navy is over-extended and does not have enough resources. According to Wikipedia we have 66 destroyers – not enough? Maybe not for the war industry that President Eisenhower warned us against? Apparently, the destroyers from Navy’s Seventh Fleet are cruising around . . .
Why Sebastian Gorka, Represents a Threat to U.S.
With Islamophobic views and ties to neo-Nazi extremists – thinking this man has the ear of the president is truly scary. Gorka, a former Breitbart editor came to the Trump admin through Steve Bannon at a salary of $155,000, Gorka’s job appears to be constantly spinning the administration’s confused, roller-coaster ride of a foreign policy; and slamming “the fake-news industrial complex,” on CNN. In the past, Gorka, who lived in Hungary was enmeshed in a web of ultraright, anti-Semitic and . . .
Our Simple Economist
We are in some bit of danger from our elected leader who has at best a simplistic understanding of today’s world. There are many factors which affect economic growth. These factors work in combination and taking them out of context to make blustery speeches does more harm than good. Factors such as research and development, corruption control, and cultural diversity all influence a healthy economy. Unfortunately, these are all targets for the current administration to either remove or stymie. Problems: . . .
Russian Laundromat’s Doors Are Now Closing
The DOTS are all starting to connect. Each step of the way has been meant to confuse us only more. However, my faith is in the FBI, CIA and the people of this country to not let this rat escape. Believe me, he won’t!
Rich Guy Says Goodbye Amtrak
Trump’s proposed budget cuts of $630k to Amtrak will surely disrupt our national long-distance railway system throwing it into a possible melt down. To think that this summer’s travel season may be the last with passenger trains for millions of Americans, is ridiculous and will put the U.S. far behind most other countries. This Administration’s proposed budget will wipe out funding for long distance train service in over 220 cities and towns and 20 cities including: Alexandria, VA; Birmingham, AL; . . .

A Must Read For Further Understanding of Russia’s Original Sin
TRUMP ADMIN CONSIDERING ELIMINATING AMERICA’S CYBER DEPT. SEEMS RISKY FOLLOWING RUSSIAN HACKING
This seems foolhardy to me! With an increasingly connected world, if this does happen, it would be going against everything that the U.S. govt has worked toward for the last decade. By dissolving its Cyber Dept., in the event of a data breach, who is going to not only investigate that crime, but be assuring our gov.t agencies that they aren’t vulnerable to a cybercrime, intrusions & data breaches! Every day of every year, the cyber threats change and they’re . . .
