Moving On
Donald Trump, during the election campaign, said that he would achieve peace in Ukraine and just one day. How is that looking for you Donald? I guess your buddy Putin is not playing along with you, is he? In a game of political craftsmanship, Trump and his team of foreign affairs advisors are amateurs against…

Unbelievable
Donald Trump had a two hour call with Vladimir Putin, yesterday. Zelensky was not on the call. Putin appeared to agree to stop bombing Ukrainian infrastructure for 30 days. He then proceeded to continue bombing Ukrainian infrastructure. Surprise, surprise. Ukraine has a couple of terms that they want for any long lasting piece. The first…

No Freaking Way

Boycott America
If my parents were alive today, they would say that they have seen this before that they have experienced this before. They went through the horrors of World War II. As the war ended, Roosevelt, Stalin, and Churchill met, in Yalta. The two western leaders essentially so without eastern Europe, including Poland to the tyranny…

History Repeat
Back in August 1939, Germany and Russia secretly signed a non-aggression pact. A few days later, on the morning of September 1, Adolf Hitler went on German radio and claimed that Poland had attacked Germany. Germany subsequently invaded Poland and World War II began. Six years and 80 million lives later the war ended. Imagine…

Seen This Before
It is obvious that Donald Trump skipped his history classes. Or else, he simply was not paying attention. Back in 1938, to appease German aggression, England, Italy, France, and Germany signed an agreement, in Munich, ceding a parcel of Czechoslovakian territory to Germany. The territory was called Sudetenland. Germany wanted it because Hitler claimed that…
