USA Constitutional Crisis?

Images

Long-standing news rules require that journalists wait for two separate sources, but Reuters and CNN are now reporting that charges have been approved in the Robert Mueller Russia investigation.

These reports state that first charges have been filed in the Russia probe with arrests expected, but it is not yet known who is charged?

What is the reason for the Trump administration's tiny steps toward imposing sanctions targeting Moscow under a new US law by sending Congress a list of entities linked to the defense and intelligence arms of the Russian government?

It is the world’s largest nation, and perhaps POTUS has a vision many Americans have yet to see, like the fact that Russian borders European and Asian countries as well as the Pacific and Arctic oceans. Its landscape ranges from tundra and forests to subtropical beaches.

POTUS35 John F Kennedy was President of the United States from January 1961 until his shocking and mysterious assassination in November 1963. Was it Cubans, Russians, or something more sinister?

A Tangled Web

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive! I know, there is a typo here and the phrase can be considered grammatically incorrect, but it was penned this way by Walter Scott - Author of Ivanhoe.

When anyone tries to deceive another, by lying or making up stories, they will make a mess of the deception. Once you tell a lie, then you will have to make up more lies to support the first lie, and then, even more, lies to support the other lies, and in the end, you have a messy situation.

Stop the Presses

Anybody who tells you they know what the news business will look like years from now is either lying or delusional. Newsweek, once one the world's largest and best known publications, dropped the print side of the business to online.

But what was supposed to be a decisive step into the 21st Century turned into a cautionary tale. The popular wisdom that online is the future hasn't been realized. It's just some business models don't work anymore. Now the bane of modern newspapers has become aggregator sites like The Huffington Post, which make money from other people's content. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/

And once everything has been made free it is very hard to turn back the tide. There is a serious danger with free content and content aggregation sites like Dose Of News #DONews which have changed how people interact with content.

Digital companies like Buzzfeed Can You Name 100 Countries In Seven Minutes? https://www.buzzfeed.com/robinedds/can-you-name-100-countries-in-seven-…
think they've found the future in their social news revolution.

GOP Without a Paddle

The phrase came from England's Haslar Creek in Portsmouth harbor a 'salt' creek. Nowadays it applies to the Potomac River and the swamp on Capitol Hill. It is also the origin of 'up shit creek'. Without a paddle this would be hopeless, hence the phrase 'up the creek without a paddle' to mean being trapped, stuck or in trouble.

Demand Answers

If safety is supposed to be a top priority with everyone involved in road and bridge-building, then why will thousands of residents and thousands more visitors to City Island, a slice of NYC paradise and a small waterfront community on the northeastern tip of the Bronx will have to cross a new bridge without any safety pedestrian protective rails on either side?

Quack Exploits America

It was not the first time this occurred and unfortunately, it will not be the last. Do you know how a faker and a grandstander managed to get away with exploiting America utilizing the power of the media?

Allow me to tell you a story about a man whose initials are DJ. He came to be known as a liar, a mass media manipulator, who filed for bankruptcy and ended up being charged with criminal fraud.

-In every age, in time there is a great seething moronic underworld who are literate, but they can't think, so they live off their emotions and vote on their prejudices... And so it goes.

The Real Donald

He was born in New York City and his name was Donald, but his friends and admirers called him Don. I had the pleasure of meeting him twice and speaking with him once. He was a real legend, but not only in his own mind. #TellMeAStory
He didn't avoid military service, he joined the United States Merchant Marine Academy in 1943. After World War II ended, The `Donald returned to journalism and worked for The AP and later for UPI.
