Guts*...
Sen. Bernie Sanders blasted 13 Senate Democrats for lacking the “guts” to stand up to the pharmaceutical industry after they voted against a measure he pushed to help drive down drug costs by importing them from Canada. A dozen Republicans voted in favor.
“The Democratic Party are not going to win elections until they do right by the American people.
Democratic Sens. Michael
Sanders said “If we can import vegetables, fish, poultry and beef from all corners of the Earth, don’t tell me that we cannot bring in, from Canada and other major countries, name brand prescription drugs of some of the largest corporations in the world.” “That’s a laughable statement.”
So, here ya go, the Democrats are defeating themselves. They say they are for the little people and here they are for ...

Climate*...
U.S. Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), a member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, responded to President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement:
“President Trump’s decision ...... is a vicious blow to American leadership and to our future. “President Trump is just plain wrong: it's not economy versus the environment or America versus the world. It's future versus past; progress and opportunity versus retreat and surrender.
Earlier the social media blew up with condemnation of Cory Booker and other Senate Democrats for voting against an amendment introduced by Bernie Sanders that would allow for the importation of prescription drugs in order to drive prices down.
Affordable medication is not that urgent, nor progressive enough for Spartacus!!! Just a thought.

Naplam Girl...
Nick Ut’s photo of Kim Phuc was a transformative moment in a horrible conflict.
The village where Ut captured the horror of the Vietnam War in a single, Pulitzer Prize–winning frame of a young girl fleeing her village after being torched by napalm dropped by a South Vietnamese Air Force Skyraider.
The misery of war, shouldn't be forgotten.
Exercise...
Seeking to give diplomatic efforts to denuclearize North Korea more of a chance, the U.S. and South Korea have decided to stop holding the large-scale annual spring exercises that have irritated North Korea in the past fifty years.
Instead, replacing them with smaller-scale exercises intended to maintain the readiness of U.S. and South Korean troops on the Korean Peninsula.
The move was announced following a phone call between acting Defense Secretary and South Korean Defense Minister.
The joint exercises was and is a threat to the North as they perceive it. When the military might is hovering around, moving towards the borders of another country, is not a comforting thoughts for the people.
I'm Back...
Here it is, Bernie is back . All the Dems who copied his lines will be shut down so easily and quickly.
Duck...
We need a change in attitude towards Russia in particular. We placed sanctions on Russia, we accused them with everything possible, and just to maintain the hate status.
Every country is trying to influence other countries to its benefit. So let us not create enemies for the desire to show off muscles. Peace living is worth removing the sanctions on Russia and North Korea. It would be a new approach to peace. Let us try it and we don't have to duck.
