Becoming Katharine Graham
A painfully shy woman's accidental rise to power and how it changed history.
Becoming Katharine Graham tells the story of a woman's accidental rise to power & how it changed history. Graham evolved into a legendary newspaper publisher. Nixon's nemesis during Watergate, she fought for truth, broke down barriers in a sexist world, & won a Pulitzer.

NPR is reporting that Oklahoma governor Stitt met with Trump to discuss Mullin's replacement. That's how much control Trump has over Congress that Stitt needs Trump's agreement before appointing someone.
That is not how the Constitution works.
NOT. AT. ALL.

A web of amyloid plaque is fluorishing in the brains of the petro-chemical-IT elite. It connects everything. Everything is connected.

Glock pistol used in deadly shooting at Old Dominion University was illegally sold to shooter, a convicted felon under probation, by a man federal ATF agents knew was selling guns illegally. He previously received a "warning letter" & had to write an apology.
It's time to enforce our gun laws

Israel has wanted to invade Iran for 40 years.
They were just waiting for a US president dumb enough to help them.

We are a nation of 349M, yet one man decided to launch our nation into a reckless, illegal war without congressional authorization or counsel or the support of the American people. He didnβt think he had any duty to sell it or serve the peopleβs interests. This is why despotic rule is so dangerous.

After a re-evaluation of her many bounteous skills and talents, it has been decided that Krispy "Know-em!" (wink wink!) can better serve the US in operation "Shield of the Americas". Her first duty will be in training border agents how to lure Chupacabras to gravel pits where they can be shot.
