Monday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Reminder that Barack Obama did not seek Congressional permission to take out Osama bin Laden even though bin Laden was in a country we were not at war with. Nor did Obama seek approval for any of the 26,000 bombs he dropped in his last year in office... Wow - weren't even at the NBA Finals and Kevin Durant was traded to Houston for Jalen Green, Dillion Brooks, the number 10 pick in Wednesday's draft, and five second rounders... Meant to mention the retirement of UFC champ Jon Jones. Had a special place in my heart for Jones since he was the brother of Patriot's Chandler Jones. Both had substance issues. Hope his demons have been conquered. He was great... I'd be the first to admit that I have no idea how much the MSM is covering Trump's bombing of Iran because I no longer follow any corporate media sources. I would be willing to bet, however, if an innocent Middle Easterner gets beat up because people are concerned over Iranian sleeper cells - that story will receive more coverage than the actual bombing... Drinking 2-3 cups of coffee a day may help cut risk of type 2 diabetes by 60%... The Trump Administration emphasizes that this was not a regime change operation. Though I get the feeling that if the Iranian people decided to change the regime on their own - Trump would not object... Reportedly former NFL receiver Antonio Brown has left the country. How much do you want to bet it was to a country without extradition?... So Iran, one of the nations in the world with the most oil, just wanted to have a peaceful nuclear program. That's why they built their enrichment facilities deep underground. You know like peaceful nations do... A Fox News reporter stated that Operation Midnight Hammer was the most secure operation she saw during 18-years at the Pentagon. It was no coincidence that there were no leaks and also no Democrats informed of the operation beforehand… I'd go out on a limb and say that Tampon Tim's 15-minutes of fame are about up. When's the last time you heard or thought about Tim Kaine, for example? He was the last VP choice of a failed Democratic Presidential candidate... Jim Nantz emphasizes to fans that he has not been bombed by the Trump Administration...

I’m with you on your stance on corporate media. When I was young, I was a “Village Voice” subscriber and having grown up just across the river from NYC, I was a liberal, but then I heard my first Rush Limbaugh show and the transformation began. I do not watch or listen to the news, but pick up snippets here and there. I do not trust any single source as I am of the opinion that they all have agendas.
