Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders and prevention.
None of these dangerous men would have done their harm to humanity if they had undergone psychiatric tests. The longer they're in office, the more they shocked and alarmed with strange and extremely unpresidential behavior.

The Best Policy

Submitted by ub on

Honesty is always the best policy. Some of us chose to tell small lies to avoid reality, or difficult situations and hide feelings or intentions. However, lying always comes at a price whilst the truth is invaluable.

The truth may be sacrosanct, but everyone knows it is wiser to tell a white lie if the truth causes unnecessary strife so its OK to bend it a bit. But not too much or it could break and fly back in your face.

Trump’s Mission Impossible

Submitted by ub on

I once built a TV station in the Eagle Pass and Del Rio, Texas area, where I lived near the Rio Grande along the shores of Lake Amistad adjacent to Maverick and Valverde counties, and believe me, this I can tell you... The tough Texas terrain along the US Mexico border will make it virtually impossible even for a very stable genius to build a real border wall. Eagle Pass borders the city of Piedras Negras, in Coahuila, and Del Rio a city in and the county seat of Val Verde across Ciudad Acuña, both are located in Mexico.

Arctic Blast

Colder temperatures continue to drop as an arctic front will bring heavy snow, ice, dramatically colder temperatures, and gusty winds from the Middle Atlantic to the Northeast throughout the entire day.

Ice accumulations up to a quarter of an inch could cause power outages and create hazardous travel conditions. Later this weekend and early next week, a new arctic front will bring widespread snow from the Plains to the Great Lakes.

The Arctic air barreling toward the east coast brings a ridiculous a temperature range. From low 60s in the southeast to the lower teens in the northwest!

Politically Motivated Hacks

Submitted by ub on

Could it be that Trump's self-inflicted wounds that are mangling his presidency are covers for sinister plots? Would create chaos with contradicting Tweets and outrageous statements are seen as smoke screens?

Example, the @POTUS announcement that he was not going to England because Obama moved the embassy to a place he didn't like, the real reason was preventing massive protests and he didn't get the facts right. Bush made that decision.Wake up, America.

Racist Leadership

Submitted by ub on

How do we define and explain racism? Why are historians saying that in modern times, no US president has been this racially insensitive and has shown an outright disdain for people who are not white? How is it that our democratic ship is sailing away from equality for everyone, regardless of race, religion, color, creed, and sexual orientation? The intelligent people of the world must come together and stand up for our planet.
