Trump and his propagandists use outrage to spread their lies.
Don’t let them

I just learned that the formatting of this post got wonky and needed fixing.
My apologies for whatever it was that caused it. The post looks fixed now.
This was a week of truth-telling and hypocrisy as Congressional Hearings opened on Wednesday with a day’s worth of public testimony from Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen.
My take? GOP congressional reps don’t know who they work for or why they were hired.
Trump’s visit to Viet Nam with North Korea’s Kim Jong-un ended with the president looking like a fool when he left early and defended the brutal autocrat’s murder of an American citizen.
Friday opened with news of breaches of National Security at the highest levels of government because the President gives high-level security clearance to family members.
Oh yes, and Jussie Smollett:
On a personal note, it was a busy week, my podcast with Matt Pappas at Beyond Your Past went live. I’ve also upgraded my video software and other equipment so I have some studying to do.

Rob’s Weekly Wrap-up 02/15-02/22
This week started with much ado about Trump’s Fake Emergency followed by the stark midweek revelation from Andrew McCabe that trump is a suspected enemy agent, at best, unwitting. In the meantime North Carolina gets a new congressional election, the FBI arrested a violent white supremacist for planning to unleash a chemical weapons attack against everyone on Trump’s political hit list, a judge gagged Roger Stone and Robert Mueller is and is not soon to release his report on #TrumpRussia, maybe.
On a personal note, therapy is rough as I come to terms with the years I lost to my illness.

Rob’s Weekly News Wrap-up 2/08-2/15
Trump’s corruption, lies, psychopathology, and possible participation in a conspiracy to steal the 2016 election dominated this week’s news cycle.
Trump dramatically declared a national emergency when he submitted to Nancy Pelosi and signed her bill to keep the government open without funding for his racist wall.
The important news this week is from the Mueller investigation:
and we have a new Attorney General:
On Friday we had another preventable mass shooting.
On a personal note, I had a productive week, a couple of my projects took place
off-line for a few days so I could not blog, but I’m back now.

Rob’s Weekly News Wrap-up 2/02-2/08
Highlights of this week include the launch of an investigation into Trump’s Inaugural Campaign and the Nancy Pelosi clap-back at Trump’s SOTU.
We had a taste of political brilliance when @AOC had witnesses an Oversight and Reform Committee hearing on Wednesday concede that our system of campaign finance enables political corruption at every level of our government.
The week closed with acting Attorney General, Matt Whitaker, giving testimony before the House Judiciary Committee and Jeff Bezos calling out the National Enquirer for extortion.
On a personal note, this was a good week, I was able to get back to writing, and I am organizing my manuscript and writing new poems.
I may have to take a break to focus on designing and making a book cover.
Please enjoy the videos; I’ve added Trevor Noah to the lineup. 🙂
