A relative of mine.

The Grantโ€™s and The Tuttleโ€™s both moved into New Haven 1634-1636โ€ฆhard core Puritans building a biblical city (Cromwell wanted to come too but was denied travel papers by Charles I - cost him his head).

The families crossed over sometime late 1600โ€™s it appears.

Black Elk in 1876.

Black Elk in 1876.

Black Elk (and unnamed) of the Lakota who had visions as a child of white men swarming the Black Hills (SD) like locusts presaging the apocalypse for the Sioux. Which is what happened. #history

Whatever happens, even miraculous Venezuela-like stability in Iran and/or Cuba, the end of US diplomacy as we knew it weakens the US. Diplomacy is a tool of power, we had the best, and we blew it up deliberately. These waters are plenty charted, and they are full of icebergs. 15/15

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.

Has trump made a formal statement about the US military personnel that lost their lives overseas?

Any public condolences?

Any sign of gratitude for their service? Any sign of empathy for the loss of their grieving families?

I havenโ€™t seen it.
