Making America Irrelevant
Trump sidelined as UN Security Council plus Germany Meet Iran’s Rouhani in Vienna
Moreover, think of it. This meeting involves three of America’s closest military and economic allies–Britain, France and Germany– having been pushed by Trump into the same corner with Russia and China in seeking to have better relations with Iran. I guess Trump has taught *them* a lesson.

Government of the Corporation
A good video on this page. America Celebrates Lateral Move From Monarchy To Corporate Rule

The Capitalist Paradise 
U.S. workers sure aren't treated very well compared to the rest of the world.   
Is it great to be a worker in the U.S.? Not compared with the rest of the developed world. 

Socialism
Why Is Nancy Pelosi So Afraid of Socialism? 
“They want single-payer health care, a higher minimum wage, and greater protections for unions.”
Democratic-Socialists need to work harder to redefine socialism. Most mid-west Americans, especially the older folks, see anything with the words "socialist" or "socialism" as the first step to communism. The Social-D's need a Frank Lutz on their team. 

Interesting
The fallacy of obviousness 
".. what people are looking for – rather than what people are merely looking at – determines what is obvious."

Propaganda
The Fox News Mascot. The Rude Pundit nails it again.
"Essentially, we don't have a president. ...  No, that's not a goddamn president. That's a mascot. We have a Philly Phanatic out there, getting the crowd pumped up, to distract from the vile, awful things done by the vile, awful people who work for this vile, awful man."
