A different class of corruption is not really mentioned: wholesale transfer of funds to Qatar, under whose control and subject to what review? Two instances of no doubt very large sums: money from the sale of Venezuelan oil (how does he get to do that?) and funds paid for his crypto scams. (I have in mind there is another large unaccountable sum sitting in Qatar too .... is that right?)
And of course there is that 747 from Qatar that the U.S. taxpayer is spending a billion dollars to bring up to security standards for U.S. 1 ... though after his term it gets transferred to the future presidential library. Just what every well-equipped library needs, a secure jumbo jet ... .after all, one can hardly associate Trump with books. (And we thought that the idea of a G.W. Bush library was not credible!)
Congratulations on getting your radio show going. I read you every day for a little dose of hope and a big dose of speaking truth about this corrupt regime. Robbing the world blind and causing the survivors of Epstein so much more pain and suffering. Thank you, Mary. From me and my 20 year old kitty, Attaboy in Woodstock, GA
Since first reading a post of yours on Facebook, a bit over a month ago, the columns by you and Shanley have gone to the top of my daily "must read" list. I so appreciate the substance and style of your writing that I had to subscribe. Thank you both so much.
Also, having worked over thirty years in broadcast here in Seattle, I had to smile at your comment "cables (who knew there were so many different types of coax?)." So true. Best of luck with the radio station! I hope to tune in next time I head down the coast.
Interesting, at the end-a community radio station?? I had been thinking along those lines myself for quite awhile, with free speech rapidly disappearing….
so glad that I did not have to watch it myself!

I love the notion/actuality of a "community radio station." I hope it will be capable of reaching across the country, the world.
I’ll second that!
Thank you as always for the clear-eyed analysis of SOTU. I couldn't bear to watch it.
