Indeed!.
Former Prime Minister of Australia Malcolm Turnbull: “When you see Trump with Putin, as I have on a few occasions, he’s like the 12-year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero!’ It’s really creepy…the creepiness was palpable”

This says it all about The Donald.
MUST WATCH: This is one of those horror stories about the loathsome piece of shit that New Yorkers know all too well. Everyone knows someone who was either scammed, ripped off, or had their life devastated by Trump. 😡😡😡👇

Imagine yourself in space, looking down on our world and yet unable to return any time soon. Consider it our bad luck, in fact, that Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita Williams were the two Americans

The Donald raises the bar on going bonkers at a campaign rally. When it comes to a contest in lunacy and imbecility, The Donald is Olympic Games material!.

No!.
There's a reason that conservative warriors like John Kennedy, Mike Pompeo, and President Trump have endorsed me to become the next US Senator from Michigan. From Day One, I'll work to secure our border, squash China, and strengthen our economy. Will you help me get there?.

Jimmy Goodrich gives us chapter and verse on Xi's "fortress economy" strategy that depends on making China economically independent of"the West," but making "the West" more dependent on China. His essay hits it out of the park!.

Come see "Coal + Ice," on the melting glaciers of the Himalayas at the Asia Society in NYC. In "The New Yorker" Bill McKibben calls it "the single best collection of images of the climate crisis I’ve ever seen.".

Just as we risk becoming inured to the crisis, an exhibition, “Coal + Ice,” serves as a stunning call to action.
