   	Look at the way the Media including CBS and I believe ABC have yeilded to   
     the will of the current president. It took a white mother being   
   murdered in   
     Minneapolis in front of her spouse to raise a lot of flags.  Look at   
   what went on   
     earlier at the Washington Post where the plutocratic owner fired   
   anyone who   
     was not in step with his editorial policy. Look at the crowd around   
   the president   
     which one of them does not have a Conferate axe to grind. Look at the   
   attacks   
     on transgender Americans and the removal of technicians who crossed the   
     president's appearance including skin color and I talk about the   
   Library of   
     Congress most notable.  The meaningless but deadly destruction of the   
     Democratic Presidents' work and even Liberal Republicans like Nixon with   
     the Clean Water Act and the USAIDS.  I say meaningless because 50 seoarate   
     treaties are being concluded with 50 Nations that were formerly   
   serviced by   
     USAIDS.  They will be getting some billions of aid to take care of the   
   former   
     needs serviced by USAIDS.  Of course it will go through the hands of the   
     individual governments which looks like a great opportunity for graft.   
      
   	Earlier today I was given to understand that the owner of Estee Lauder   
   a make-up and skin care firm with a great many other names is one of the   
   people pushing him to seize Greenland.   
      
   	I am too tired to rattle on.   
   	Have a great night.
