FAKE NEWS
I have heard Trump brag, on a CNN broadcast, that he is the greatest president that this country has ever had.
Should this make CNN guilty of distributing fake news?

TRUMP AND THE NEWS
FAKE NEWS = NEGEATIVE NEWS = THE TRUTH
September 20, 2026 at 7:42 am
I LOOK FORWARD TO THE DAY WHEN:
our country has a capable president.
cabinet heads are qualified to do the job rather than their only qualification is who they worship.
everything government officials say is the truth.

TRUMP’S ELECTIONS: BEYOND BELIEF
It’s hard to believe the luck, both good and bad, when it comes to elections.
In elections he wins there is no cheating, no noneligible voters voting and no voter fraud.
However, when it comes to elections Trump loses there is a vast amount of cheating and untold numbers of noneligible voters voting along with a massive amount of voter fraud.
Is that ‘luck’ following Trump, OR WHAT?

TRUMP AND THE NEWS MEDIA ARE BOTH GUILTY
There has been a subject delt with in public, which I feel should never be discussed in public. The subject is the supply of munitions available during a war, as for that matter also in times of peace.
Trump was probably guilty of the birth of this mistake in discussing the state of the supply of advanced missiles now that the war with Iran has raged for so long. When asked what the supply was available after so many have been used, and taking to the usual Trump, lied saying there was no problem with the supply of these weapons.
Someone needs to teach Trump how to say, “No Comment”.
And with this lie the news media took to exposing the lie by publishing the truth. If no lie had been made I feel the news media would not have felt obligated to reveal the true nature of the supply of these weapons. Now thanks to this combination of lies and then the truth the entire world knows facts which never should be revealed under any circumstances.

Trump and the Earthquake
When Trump invaded Venezuela he said that it was to help the country. The country now needs more help than it has perhaps since the last century.
The earthquake has devastated the country beyond belief. Recently it was reported that they are starting to lose the ability to use some of their heavy equipment due to lack of gasoline.
One benefit of Trump’s invasion of Venezuela was to restore the country’s oil production, so Trump has connections to a host of oil executives. It seems that if he truly wanted to help the country in this time of need he could have gas shipped to them.
Could that be because extending a helping hand would not lead to profit?

TRUMP TRUMPS BIDEN
All through Trump’s administration that anything that goes wrong is Biden’s fault. Anything good is because of Trump.
In all honesty Biden was far from perfect and his pardons and use of the justice department were far from above board. But how Trump handles these areas is a few orders of magnitude above Biden’s.
Okay, Biden pardoned his son, Hunter, when he first said he wouldn’t. He also pardoned his family. In my eyes the only reason for a pardon is to forgive a wrongdoing, but that’s only me.
Now let’s look at Trump’s use of pardons. He has pardoned himself and his entire family and his businesses from any crimes concerning the I R S. What could he be hiding? And what are the penalties that are being avoided? Then there is pardoning all the January 6 ‘patriots’ who had been found guilty of a host of crimes including beating policemen. And now he is attempting to reward these criminals.
Now let’s look at Biden’s and Trump’s use of the justice department. It has come to light that Biden is not completely innocent in his use of the justice department. But Biden’s manipulations pale compared to Trump’s endeavors.
Trump constantly accused Biden of weaponizing the justice department, but Trump has done that to the extreme. Trump indicated at the beginning of this term that he was going to go after his enemies, those individuals who prevented him from doing what he wanted to do or those he had some sort of grudge against. And Trump made no attempt of keeping those intentions secret. The entire world would see, by using social media, the identity of those he considered wrong doers. And in doing so negated a great deal of the indictments he had the justice department issue.
In this piece I have pointed out two areas, pardons and the justice department, where Biden and Trump do not have perfect records. But Trump far exceeds Biden in doing what is less than right.
Let us hope and pray that this country never has another president who approaches Trump in the abuse of power which he has exhibited.

OUR DEMOCRACY IS DYING
The direction in which this country is moving is both strange and disturbing. Since Trump became president the principles associated with our Constitution have been diminishing. And the separation of the three branches of government has become blurred.
The primaries have become a killing field for Republicans running for office who have defied Trump in some way. Who went against decisions Trump has made which were less than beneficial for the country. To run against these errant Republicans Trump has chosen to supply competition of his own choice with the population being represented having no say in the matter. Their only qualification to run for office is the willingness to accept any decision that Trump makes.
I wonder of the qualifications the candidates Trump chooses keeping in mind the qualifications of those he has selected to serve in his cabinet.
The job of Congress is to serve the people they represent. This has been replaced by fear of losing their job if they defy Trump. Our democracy has been diminished by a president who values himself more than the country he was elected to serve.
Fear has replaced duty in the Republications in Congress. The values associated with our country are disappearing and the direction our country is taking is beyond our control.

AMERICA RETURNS TO SPACE
The entire country is in awe of our return to the moon and that now our curiosity about space has returned and I hope it is maintained.
I thought I’d take this opportunity to share with you a story I wrote sone time ago about a society which thought space exploration was a waste of time and money. My story, Second Chance, is that story
Second Chance describes a distant planet where a society exists which can see no reason to explore space while there are so many problems its occupants face on a daily basis. Immediate problems take precedence over space exploration.
I’m sure we have all encountered individuals who are of the opinion that money is better spent on Earth rather than wasting it on space exploration. That opinion spells doom for the society in my story and leads eventually to conditions which cannot be reversed.
How do you think our planet will look in a few thousand years from now with space exploration, or without it?

IS AMERICA APPROACHING IRAN?
A blurb appearing in the April 6, 2026, issue of Time Magazine concerning Iran:
The regime’s murderous preoccupation preventing organized opposition.
The above blurb got me thinking of the conditions in Iran which developed over the last 47 years. Living, it seems to me, under the rule of a religious dictator has resulted in a tyrannical lifestyle for the citizens of Iran. A suppressive government where the most recent wave of protests was met with the murder of thousands. Where not in the too distant past a woman was executed for not wearing the correct type of clothing. Where communication with the outside world is virtually nonexistent. Where citizens have no say in the government which rules them. The facts concerning the harsh life suffered by the Iranian people go on and on. Now there is the war.
For a moment, let’s look at what is happening in our country and the direction in which we are being led.
Our government was meant to consist of three independent units: executive, legislative and judicial. Now, in effect, the executive branch is controlled by the threats of the president to retaliate against members who disagree with him by going against them with recommendations of opposing candidates in upcoming elections. Apparently keeping their jobs is more important than representing their constituents. Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, is a prime example of how Trump can remove a politician’s spine. The Supreme Court is strongly influenced through Trump’s appointments.
As far as the people having a say in the government Trump is actively seeking control of elections. He continues to claim, along with his minions, that he won the 2020 election although there is no proof to that fact after countless investigations into the results.
The free press is under attack. Whenever there is news which Trump does not agree with he deems it ‘fake news’ even though he constantly lies trying to conceal the truth where it might hurt him. Access by reporters who might ask embarrassing questions is limited. The FCC threatens TV stations, think of the attack on Jimmy Kimmel, with cancelling their license if, on their station if Trump is maligned.
Then there is ICE, an organization meant to overlook immigration which now has become Trump’s storm troopers hiding their identities behind masks and harassing and murdering innocent citizens which is, in turn, intimidating portions of our citizens and forcing them to live in constant fear.
Now our country has gone to war with no apparent reason or outcome. A war declared without Congress’s approval.
All this has reduced a once well-respected country into the laughingstock of the world. With all the present state of conditions mentioned above how do I anticipate our future- BLE

PROFITING FROM TRUMP’S DECISIONS
It has come to light recently that some are making huge amounts of money, millions, by betting, anonymously, on foreign exchanges on Trump’s decisions before they are revealed to the public with an unbelievable percentage of success.
Due to the fact that these bets are being made outside the country and anonymously the identity of the perpetrator or perpetrators has yet to be determined but investigations are now underway.
Are these bets being made and won through insider information? It is going to be interesting with an investigation that is now underway that the occurrence of these bets suddenly ceases. I think that if they do cease that would indicate criminal activity, because if there was no crime being committed, why cease making a ton of money?
Depending on the results of these investigations we may not see the answers to these questions any time soon. Remember that video we were promised showing the second attack on that suspected drug-carrying boat killing two men, promised by Pete Hegseth. Catch my drift?

OUR FUTURE WITH AI
Not long ago only a select few had AI constantly on their minds. Now, most of us give some thought to the subject daily and the frequency of those thoughts is surely going to increase in the future.
What is the future of AI and what is one of the factors which will come into play in determining that future?
I recently heard a discussion concerning the possible future of AI and our society. A future with either a positive or negative possibility.
Our positive existence with AI, in the future, is possible if there is no greed associated with its development. If greed is present the outlook is not great.
With the present state of our nation which future do you think is the one we are most likely to see?
