The Morning Report 9/12/17
Good morning kids. Up front for this Tuesday is the aftermath of Irma. Florida has been raked end to end; the Keys got hammered, Jacksonville is flooded and although Tampa evidently was hit I've heard it could have been much worse there. Obviously it's going to take time, energy and money to recover, but recover they will. I hope Florida morons and anyone else affected in the region are all ok. And of course Texas too in the wake of Harvey (all but gone from the news cycle, right?).
The other huge story is that we as a nation have cracked the debt record; $20,000,000,000,000 in the hole and no signs of slowing down, Trump or no Trump. And that doesn't even include the over $200 Trillion in unfunded liabilities. If we continue on this trajectory, we will reach a point where even if the government actually does enact measures to pay this down, it will be too late to avoid some form of financial and then societal collapse. But deals must be made, I tells ya.
From hither and yon, Looks like Cheryl Mills will have to answer for her misconduct vis a vis Hillary's e-mails. Note, "have to answer for" does not necessarily mean "be punished for." Nunzio Pelosi had yet another in a series of mini-strokes, Rexxon's State Dept. is still anti-Israel, Deputy Dawg wants FISA to continue and lastly, we have America's model city, Berkeley, were the police are eager to serve and protect.... mainly themselves and the Maoist thugs in control of that place. Sheesh.
Anyway, links from around the world, across the nation and up your street. Have a better one and remain blessed.
