1/ From @GretaThunberg "This is all wrong. I shouldn't be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. #ClimateWeek2019
2/ And yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction and all you can talk about is the money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you! @SpreadEagleBear
3/ For more than 30 years the science has been crystal clear. How dare you continue to look away and come here and say you're doing enough when the politics and solutions needed are still nowhere in sight. You say you hear us and understand the urgency. @SeattleOnside
4/ But no matter how sad and angry I am, I do not want to believe that. Because if you really understood the situation and still kept on failing to act, then you would be evil. And that I refuse to believe."

Greta Thunberg - UN Climate Summit, NY, 9/23/2019

Donald Trump, you Sir are no Churchill... and your response to the Coronavirus Pandemic is the exact opposite of what he would've done. Lets review his actions to protect his people..

1) Churchill did not say that the Nazis weren’t coming for them and would just dissappear like magic one day; and

2) Churchill did not tell people to deliberately keep their lights blazing during bombing raids; and
3) Churchill was real and very direct about the bombs and what they'd do; and

4) Churchill didn't keep all of the children, elderly & frail in London, but rather evacuated them to the countryside where possible and put everyone else in Tube Stations and Tunnels for shelter; and

1/ Twas the night before @NCAA_FCS playoffs and all through the city
Not a creature was stirring, not even @LynnHickey24
The helmets were hung in the locker room with care
In hopes that the @EWUFootball were ready to beat the @BlackBearsFB
2/ The very next day.....
The fans were all bundled and cozy in boots
With visions of dance-offs between @BananasTBear & @EWUSwoop
When out on the Inferno our beloved team would arrive
With 60 minutes to fight and play the game of their lives
3/
Passing, rushing, intense penetration
All in an effort to send the @BlackBearNation into winter hibernation

@MalcolmNance 1/ I've always felt that Putin is executing on a well gamed out plan, and my guess we are entering the phase of diminished usefulness of Trump to Putin
@MalcolmNance 2/ And it was probably always in Putin's plan to ride Trump on both the upside and the downside for maximum asymmetric effect for Putin's Goals & Objectives
@MalcolmNance 3/ with this move and probably a multitude of other moves that may or may not be visible if one looks hard enough and with a clear mind, Putin is preparing his planned battlespace for the downside playbook he has in mind.
