31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Our noisy neighbour is upset that corruption is being investigated. The irony of a fake former President, installed by the bunker midget and half-pickled most days is lecturing anyone about legitimacy is comedy gold.

The General is through his 3rd operation in a month. Sleeping on my chair, he is absolutely exhausted. He survived 2014, again Russia’s full scale invasion in 2022, lost his house in Mariupol and is still fighting now at 16 years old.

Hail the General, 🫡🇺🇦

Anyone willing to amplify propaganda for a terrorist state should be held to account.

RT, Russia Today, where George Galloway frequently appears, isn’t just Russian state TV. They were an integral part of the torture system, including in my own case.
