Bolton, the very epitome of all that is wrong with the USA. Add to that arrogant fool the likes of Pompeo, (possible the worst), the values of Albright, and topping off a list that could be 200 would be H Clinton still in there planning her dirty deeds for 2004. Too many Neocons to count, Israeli agents posing as US citizens in AIPAC and the various lobbying groups, mostly funded by Israel.

What a grand, respected country it could be again if it reverted to those values enshrined so many years ago by much wiser men than you could ever find on any street in America today. Instead we tolerate liars, cheats and warmongers, economic criminals by the score, military industrialists making a killing based on current US warlike policies and the need by all politicians for the USA to be seen to rule the world. An arrogant country, but not a nation as we know it. A geographical location, with no uniform policies for all its citizens, half of whom seem to have lost interest in the future.

Finally as the grandmasters of the US downfall, we have apartheid Israel, using the feeble UN to run rampant over Palestine, storing up an arsenal of 400+ nuclear weapons with American assistance and dictating every day the policies accepted to them in the Congress of these same United States.

Now if that does not contain all the ingredients in a recipe for further continuing disaster, what does?

Caitlin--You were highly praised yesterday by Chris Martenson of Peak Prosperity. You also turned up in a list of influential writers by Mark Crispin Miller. Finally, you beat Matt Taibbi by a day with your Political False Dichotomies piece. He wrote a New Kremlinology piece that made the same stark observation you did: "media companies and Internet platforms are agreeing to bluntly disallow criticism or mockery of American foreign policy on those grounds alone." You said it so much more succinctly! He also featured your Ukraine flag-draped tweet. You rock!
