Crowd Serenades Trump During World Series Game 5

And Now...

In Honor of America's Pastime and the 2019 World Series...

Let's have a Sing-A-Long!

The Tune - of course - is:
"Take Me Out To The Ball Game":

"Take him out of the Office...
Drag him out if you must.

Go back to Trump Steaks and Lousy Hotels...
Please take Eric and Junior as well.

We all Root Root Root for Impeachment...
If Trump's not removed, it's insane.

For it's One Term Is More Than Enough...
You're a Shame Shame Shame!"*

And, the crowd goes WILD!!!

Never Forget: The Inspiring, Courageous Life & Suspicious Death of American Journalist Serena Shim

I think I'll file this post under the category of "Zeros and (S)Heroes"...

In the wake of Donald Trump‘s stupidly unsupervised phone call with Turkish President Erdoğan (in which the former was, obviously, rolled by the latter), immediately followed by Trump’s announcement of the strategically-ignorant withdrawal/retreat of about 1000 spec ops troops and the unconscionable, callous, and deadly abandonment of the United States’ only allies in the region - the ISIS-crushing Kurds...

I urge everyone to, please, acquaint themselves with (and/or remember) the truly inspiring life, utterly fearless work, and tragic, premature, and suspicious death of American journalist, Serena Shim:

Shutdown Turmoil In Our National Parks: Bears Aren’t The Only Ones Who Sh*t In The Woods...



America’s greatest national treasures - our priceless and irreplaceable national parks and (at one time) protected lands - have remained open during the current Trump government shutdown -  something this administration intentionally chose to do, and 
which previous administrations did not do out of concern for public safety and for the protection of our precious national parks.

Sometimes, the best way to get a clearer understanding of a situation is to look at it from the perspective of an outside, third-party, observer...  Observers such as the journalists who contributed to this article (see Guardian UK link, below), who deftly explain the significance of and the ramifications of that decision.

Enjoy... er, well... no, perhaps not that.

Expand your worldview a wee bit, then?

Oh, and... Happy New Year!!!*
