Once again, Mary thanks for a succinct, clear overview. I have reached a point where I refuse to listen or watch the lying demagoguery that has become the news.
Living in a country that pays around $15 a gallon for gasoline (petrol in my country), I find Trump’s determination for a $2 rate insulting, especially when tied to his enthusiasm for “beautiful clean coal”, by which we have been destroying our planet since around the time the USA was founded.
And Washington State is underwater because of the climate change but he still pushes on. New drilling may be a costly experience as one of the major purchasers China is pushing ahead with solar and wind power and reducing their reliability on oil. Who will buy it? Good question as the world prices are dropping even in a climate of uncertainty.
Go look at Judd Legum Popular Information today as he explains the decision by the media to broadcast Twump last night and their reasons why they wouldn't broadcast speeches by Biden and Obama.
I hold onto the slim hope that having these economic lies shouted repeatedly into our faces will backfire for the simple reason that 99% of us purchase groceries, fuel, electricity, houses, cars, pharmaceuticals, health insurance, and all that other stuff FROM OUR DIMINISHING WALLETS. Our lived experiences are our own best fact checkers.

I simply never watch his television appearances they are a waste of my time.
I don’t watch him.
I don’t listen to him.
I didn’t vote for him…ever.
I will NOT vote for him…ever.
Nor will I watch his trial.
Nor watch their trials.
Imbedded in this twilight zone of a slow motion train wreck, Bob Dylan’s Watchtower rings an eerie resonance:
“There must be some way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief”

How many in country did watch is question. Nobody who reads Mary G. We know that. Shame on media in all sorts of ways.
Dang! I missed his address. I was too busy watching Reiner's "Stand by Me." :)

I’ll take a look
History is repeating itself. This column by a food historian who studied WWII has an insightful perspective: https://open.substack.com/pub/sandragarson805328/p/guns-or-butter-me-or-we-the-original-f9d
I was pleased to find Stephen Colbert had split his show so I watched the earlier part of his show instead.
After all that “good news”, let’s see the ghosts from the past. When does the DOJ unwrap the Epstein files?
Obviously not tomorrow. He is going to ignore the court orders.
So sorry you had to waste your time watching it on our behalf...
Thanks for the excellent analysis and conclusions. Too bad the criticisms will fall on deaf ears.
