I've been encouraged to post some recent video content, and so here we go. First up: "Cold War II or World War III?"

If your response to Gen John Kelly, gold star father & Trump’s WH chief of staff, confirming that Trump praised Hitler & called members of our military “suckers and losers” is to defend Trump, you need to look in the mirror and realize your dishonor will live forever.

This is no way for a government official or political candidate to conduct themselves on the sacred ground of Section 60 at Arlington. The final resting place of so many heroic Americans -- including some who died under my command -- is not a political prop.

Watching the supposedly “tough” party being infected with fear that supporting Ukraine means WW3 is something to behold. Such weak whiney fear from their fearful tiny handsed, little leader. Trump is so weak and scared of everything

Presented with unique Ukrainian stamp by their Minister of Interior. Honors capture of Snake Island and sinking of Russian flagship Moskva. A treasure and an honor to receive! ⚓️

I wonder if, on this Memorial Day, all of us might imagine reaching out, holding those ID tags for a moment, and pledging to live well, strengthen our Republic, and treasure the freedoms that all of our fallen warriors fought to preserve. thefp.com/p/hr-mcmaster-…

@8thGenCA Even funnier- back then the drafting was done on mylar with a Leroy pen and template set in a drafting pool. And management had fought WWII- it was nothing to get chewed out - nothing like todays workplace !

@8thGenCA Funny when I worked at LA County FCD on Alcazar (aka Alcatraz) the entire staff was from the east coast and Celtic fans, there within a mile of downtown. Still remember the chant “Beat LA! Beat LA!”

I always hated it when Red Auerbach lighted a stogie when Celtics won. But I get the good feeling and satisfaction of a little gloating after a major win. And tonight is yet another major win after many wins these past years. So light up and enjoy all!

President Biden effectively spoke to four separate and distinct audiences today: Ukrainians, Europeans in NATO, Americans, and to Putin himself. His message to Ukraine: Resolve, to Europe: Unity, to Americans: the Stakes and to Putin: Defiance

“If Los Angeles, Phoenix and other Western cities want farm belts such as Imperial to supply them with water and clean power, they’ve got to treat these places like partners, not pieces on a chessboard. It’s a moral imperative, but also a practical one.”
Los Angeles Times@latimes

What happens in Imperial matters to everyone else. Why? In part because of the valley’s startlingly large draw on the Colorado River, which supplies 40 million people across seven states. @Sammy_Roth explains in the latest edition of Boiling Point: latimes.com/environment/ne…
