Peace..

  

I have, therefore, chosen this time and place to discuss a topic on which ignorance too often abounds and the truth too rarely perceived. And that is the most important topic on Earth: peace. 

What kind of a peace do I mean, and what kind of a peace do we seek? 

Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. 

Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. 

I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on Earth worth living, and the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and build a better life for their children. 

Not merely peace for Americans, but peace for all men and women  not merely peace in our time, but peace in all time.

What happened to these ideals? Just a thought.

Oh My

 

“Upon considering his request, as well as the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint him as special counsel,” Garland said.

 Weiss filed court papers seeking to move federal tax charges against Hunter Biden out of Delaware. The court papers said negotiations over a plea deal had reached an “impasse” and that the case is now headed toward trial.

As special counsel, Weiss has authority to bring criminal charges related to his probe in any part of the country he wishes. Garland had said previously that Weiss already enjoyed that authority, but two IRS agents told Congress that Weiss was blocked from bringing charges in different judicial districts.  

What did this guy do??????????????

Hunter Biden has been creating art for some time. His hobby took a serious turn, and he is trying to sell some of his paintings this fall. They are expected to be priced between $75,000 and $500,000, which seems ridiculous. 

After all, who would pay that much money for the works of a former board member of Burisma Holdings? Maybe people, groups, or countries trying to curry favor with his dad? 

While ethics experts acknowledge that this is not illegal, it sure seems like a very sketchy way for the son of a president to funnel large sums of money into his own pockets. Hunter Biden may not be much of a painter, but he sure seems to be an ... artist. 

Jupitaer..

After several days of tense negotiations, an agreement was reached between Kennedy and Khrushchev: publicly, the Soviets would dismantle their offensive weapons in Cuba and return them to the Soviet Union, subject to United Nations verification, in exchange for a US public declaration and agreement to not invade Cuba again.

Secretly, the United States agreed with the Soviets that it would dismantle all of the Jupiter MRBMs which had been deployed to Turkey against the Soviet Union. 

There has been debate on whether or not Italy was included in the agreement as well. While the Soviets dismantled their missiles, some Soviet bombers remained in Cuba, and the United States kept the naval quarantine in place until November 20, 1962.

Do we have a similar situation today? May be Peace would be the answer before it is too late for the Ukraine. Just a thought.

Nurses..

 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the rate of injuries from violent attacks against medical professionals grew by 63% from 2011 to 2018, and hospital safety directors say that aggression against staff escalated as the COVID-19 pandemic intensified in 2020.

They are routinely yelled at, spat at, pummeled, kicked, scratched and even stabbed by the people they’re trying to save.

In many states, being a nurse is more dangerous than being a police officer or a prison guard. It’s a profession with a stunning amount of violence.

The best thing the Democratic party has to offer the American people.  Just a thought.

Goliath..

 

Neta C. Crawford, a political scientist at Oxford University, aims to fix that in her new book, The Pentagon, Climate Change, and War: Charting the Rise and Fall of US Military Emissions. 

Although the Pentagon has been at the forefront of climate change research since the mid-20th century, Crawford writes, the US Department of Defense is also the single largest institutional fossil fuel user in the world. 

Since 2001, the military has been responsible for 77 to 80 percent of federal energy consumption. 

The DOD maintains more than 560,000 buildings on about 500 bases around the world, making up a large portion of its emissions. And like a goliath multinational corporation, it relies on an extensive network of fossil-fueled equipment's  from dropping bombs to delivering humanitarian aid.

And although recent research has demonstrated that the US military is one of the largest polluters in history, it still tends to be overlooked in climate change studies.
