Tuesday, May 7, 2019

And another day of the biggest loser, racy pictures (not that anyone would ever want to see them, of course), another school shooting, and the terrifying future for humanity comes to a close:

“I’m really a good businessman.” -- Donald Trump (Please continue reading after you have stopped laughing.)

The New York Times obtains Trump tax information from 1985-1994. “In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer... He lost so much money that he was able to avoid paying income taxes for eight of the 10 years.” He lost more than $1 billion in a decade. Yes, that’s with a B. His entire life he has been nothing but a failure and a conman. And many of you voted for him.

Mueller fought release of Comey memos to prevent Trump and others from changing stories.

White House orders McGahn not to comply with congressional subpoena.

Bill Gates Actually Made a Good Point About the Socialism Debate in America. Most left-leaning people (which is to say, most Americans) support politicians who, at the end of the day, are promising to deliver capitalism with a strong social safety net. Yep. It’s not the classic definition of “socialism.” Very few people are advocating for that. We just want fairness and basic rights.

Jerry Falwell Jr. sought Michael Cohen's help in preventing racy 'personal' photos from becoming public. Trump's former personal lawyer and fixer was recorded talking about Falwell's predicament in phone call. Jerry Falwell Jr. uses religion to manipulate and control those who support him. But never lose sight of the fact that he’s a horrible person.

One student dead in school shooting in suburban Denver, 8 others injured.

Journalists jailed in Myanmar freed after more than 500 days behind bars. The pair had been working on an investigation into the killing of 10 Rohingya Muslim men and boys by security forces and Buddhist civilians.

The terrifying future for humanity. According to a new report compiled by more than 450 experts over the course of three years, nature is declining at an “unprecedented” rate, with approximately one million species at risk of extinction—more than ever before in human history. And many species, according to the report, face extinction “within decades.” Humans don’t deserve this planet.

See how the Amazon has gone from dense forest to bare earth in just four decades.

Arctic permafrost is melting so fast it's damaging the equipment scientists use to measure it.

Trump administration opens the door to pushing more poor people off benefits

Trump has pardoned a former U.S. soldier convicted in 2009 of killing an Iraqi prisoner.

Students at an Arizona school walk out after a classmate was turned over to border agents. The student has lived here since he was a toddler, is now two weeks away from graduation, and is now being deported to Mexico--a country he’s never known.

For cancer patients, fear of measles has upended daily routines. Get vaccinated people. There’s more involved here than just your irrational fear.

“We accept the love we think we deserve.” -- Stephen Chbosky

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
