Witkoff has chosen which side he prefers. To trust Putin, one has to choose to be blind.

You're not alone in having these feelings and struggling with them. You're coming in loud and clear. I'm 75. You'll make it. There are good people, and there are good days. They will return even though you think it won't happen. I have to remind myself when it's bleak. Trust me. Trust yourself.

I would like to see every single soldier on every single side, just take off your helmet, unbuckle your kit, lay down your rifle, and set down at the side of some shady lane, & say nope, I ain't gonna kill nobody. Plenty of rich folks wants to fight. Give them the guns. - Woody Guthrie, 1939

It's difficult for Ukrainians to repair a pipeline while under attack from Russia. Since Orban and Fico think so highly of Putin, maybe Ukraine should allow Orban and Fico to repair the pipeline. Surely, they would be safe from any Russian attacks. Problem solved!

You give him credit for thinking ahead. You've overestimated his working memory. His entire cabinet would be challenged to plan a successful trip to the grocery store.

I'm confused, too, and I've known about P.T. Barnum for many years. P.T. Barnum ran a famous circus. If he was here today, he would probably hire Trump and Vance and Noem and Hegseth. A good circus can never have too many clowns.

Thank you for letting us share in their joy. We need more stories like this, in some ways, and in other ways, no more stories like this. Trump, the never-warrior, says that things like this happen in war. How observant of him. No more Trumps. No more Putins. We can do just fine without them.

Putin and Trump are the ones who should be leaving.

I didn't know Danny DeVito was Russian.

We should name an airport after Obama.

Probably a net loss of employment after that. With luck, a few less Russian drones, as well.

Killed, yes. Still, I hope they were killed by the initial strike before they were cremated.

The West owes Ukrainians a huge debt. They were left defenseless, vulnerable. It's well past time that the West steps up Big Time and sends the Russians home. What does U.S. do? Dismantle VOA. If ever there was a time to talk to Russian people it is now! Talking with Putin is a fool's errand.

I would clean it up myself if the Russians would just go home.

Unfortunately, you are correct.

I am so sorry. We are ashamed of our government. I hope things change soon for you and for us.

Thank you! We're hoping for a new era in the USA, too.😀

Be wary of taking bait. The response is unpredictable, maybe dangerous. Non-violence makes their aggression and intimidation more obvious and objectionable. Go where they aren't, not where they are. Work stoppages. Marches. Turn out all over country on 14th. Peacefully. BE the news. Not his parade.

This is so important for a number of reasons: continuity of research, aggregation of long-term data and trends, agriculture, preparedness, construction and infrastructure design, insurance prediction, retention of scientists in US, science education, governmental policy studies, forecasting and.....

John, you have been added to my heroes list for speaking up.
Thank you!

It will be the Gulf of Mexico for as long I live. The land to the NW, N, and E of the Gulf shall be known as the Great Trump Intellectual Desert for as long as he is in office and, hopefully, for no longer that that.

All states. FEMA was onsite here in central VT for several months after flooding in 2023 and for a shorter period in 2024. VT is as blue as it gets.
