Another lovey review for Old Skies- I always like when other Brits enjoy the tone we were going for!

"It's cozy like a cup of tea that occasionally questions the nature of fate."

The Republicans have in effect shut down the legislative branch of the U.S. government and handed those powers to the dictator in the White House. No one cleared this with the American people.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."
