Solutions . . .

. . . are now required. . .

(thanks to http://usuncut.com/politics/its-not-free-stuff-its-using-taxes-to-fund-what-we-actually-need/)
The corporate media’s pundits and the corporate-owned political class love to dismiss helpful solutions to social problems as “free stuff” conveniently ignoring the multitude of corporate entitlements that cost trillions to maintain. . . progressive proposals of a free, universal Medicare For All program, free public education through the 4-year college level, 12 weeks of paid family leave, and providing millions of new jobs through investments in infrastructure are lofty goals, but the money to fund them is there if we were to simply cut the most wasteful and fraudulent corporate welfare packages that help a small wealthy few Americans while burdening the rest. . .

Moments . . .

. . . (this one, unfortunately, not so great) . . . in history . . .

(from No One Left To Lie To; The Values of the Worst Family by Christopher Hitchens)
". . . (from an address by David Schippers) The President, then, has lied under oath in a civil deposition, lied under oath in a criminal grand jury. He lied to the people, he lied to his Cabinet, he lied to his top aides, and now he's lied under oath to the Congress of the United States. There's no one left to lie to. . ."

What . . .

. . . more. . .

. . . need be said?

(from http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/first-read-gop-trump-go-unraveling-break-glass-mode-n622116)
". . . In a Washington Post interview, Trump declined to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan against his primary challenger . . .

He reiterated that he hasn't endorsed Sen. John McCain and said the onetime prisoner of war "has not done a good job for the vets". . .

He slapped out at Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte, saying "she has given me zero support". . .

He suggested that Americans should pull their 401(k) funds out of the stock market. . .

He said he's "always wanted" to receive a Purple Heart but that having one gifted to him by a supporter was "much easier". . .

He said that the handling of sexual harassment has "got to be up to the individual". . .

He accused Khizr Khan of being "bothered" by his plan to keep terrorists out of the country, and said that he had no regrets about his clash with the family. . .

He appeared to feud with a crying baby during a rally. . .

He reiterated that "if the election is rigged, I would not be surprised". . .

The sitting president of the United States publicly called Trump "unfit to serve" and urged Republicans to withdraw their support for him. . .

Trump spokesman Katrina Pierson suggested that Obama and Clinton are to blame for the death of Humayan Khan, who died in 2004, when neither were in the executive branch at the time. . .

An ally of Paul Manafort told our colleague John Harwood at CNBC that the campaign chairman is "mailing it in," leaving the rest of the staff "suicidal.". . .

Sitting GOP congressman Richard Hanna, HP head Meg Whitman and former Christie aide Maria Comella all said they plan to vote for Hillary Clinton. . .

The Washington Post released a transcript of its full interview with Trump, indicating among other things that he paused five times to watch TV coverage in the middle of the sit-down. . .

A GOP source told NBC's Katy Tur that Reince Priebus is "apoplectic" over Trump's refusal to endorse Ryan and is making calls to the campaign to express his "extreme displeasure". . ."

Independent . . .

(from http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2016/07/26/bernie-sanders-to-return-to-senate-as-an-independent/)
". . . Bernie Sanders said he plans to return to the Senate as an independent, despite winning 13 million votes in the Democratic Party’s presidential primary contest. . .“I was elected as an independent; I’ll stay two years more as an independent,” Mr. Sanders said. . . the resignation of Debbie Wasserman Schultz as chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee doesn’t go far enough in fixing the situation and that more staff members need to leave following embarrassing disclosures of thousands of internal emails. . . “We need a DNC which has as very different direction,” he said. “I honestly don’t know many of the people there. But my guess is we’re going to need new leadership, a new direction and new personnel.” . . . "

. . . as I return to my pre-primary voter status as a proud "Unaffiliated"!

The Other . . .

. . . hand

(from wikipedia.com)
"Thomas Jeffery "Tom" Cole is the U.S. Representative for Oklahoma's 4th congressional district, serving since 2003. He is a member of the Republican Party. He is a Deputy Majority Whip"

. . . believes Clinton to be unfit to be President, due to among other things . . .

(http://www.npr.org/2016/07/06/484987301/gop-leaders-criticize-fbi-recommendation-not-to-charge-hillary-clinton)
". . . The stuff I heard yesterday was sort of hard to think how did you come to all these conclusions and yet come to a decision not to file an indictment? . . .This would have been a career-ender for anybody else in the State Department in terms of what they had done. And so you can't have one standard for the average American and something different because somebody is on the eve of being a major party nominee. . ."

. . . and he may be right! . . . but does that REALLY mean there is only ONE alternative???
