As the World Burns

It's summer, folks! Some of us are shivering in the wind and fog (like those of us in San Francisco), while most of the world boils alive. I deeply sympathize with all those heat-stroked people in the Southwest who are suffering historic temperature spikes -- and believe me, I feel your pain, since here in California we have weathered countless wildfires (though not so much so far this season). But I have one question for you: why do you keep electing politicians who are pawns of the fossil fuel industry? The industry that's brought you this global warming hell?

These corporate and political leaders should be behind bars, not enjoying their wealth somewhere on Earth that's not sizzling.

Hey, but that's not a laid-back thought. It's summertime and the living is easy. I'll be posting less often here.

Meanwhile, here in the United States, the empire staggers on and another presidential race grinds on. No Democratic Party politician had the guts to challenge geriatric, war-obsessed Joe Biden, so RFK Jr. jumped in. He quickly hit 20 points in the polls -- and he quickly drew daily fire from the establishment media and its masters.
