When there is a backlash, the party leaders clamp down and stop the extremists or pragmatists from changing their base or corrupting their supporters, because if you lose support, you lose power.. you lose control.

Fake News! This widely used political term today was used once before, but has become a growing theme in the political narrative that the parties like to use to describe either untruthful reports, or just as a dumbed down phrase to deflect from reality.

Will there ever be a deal made with Iran? If so, how much will Israel affect it's outcome? One thing for certain, the current plans being thrown around are not good and many people even on the right are calling it a bad deal. I'll share some of my thoughts that expand beyond Iran into China as well as what this latest war has done to shake up the world powers.

Nearly every single topic in America at one time felt singular, yet today each and every one is tied to the other through politics. More importantly, to how you view politics. While we do have our similarities, it's the differences that politicians push because it keeps their supporters in line and allows for the politicians to maintain their power and control over us. Immigration, like all topics...

Secrets are something we all have. At some point in time, those secrets are revealed while others may vanish into oblivion. But in order to keep a secret, one mustn't reveal the secret because the more people who know, the chances of that secret spreading and one day revealing itself to the masses can be damaging. America itself is built on secrets, but it's the conspiracy theories that people cre...

America is on a downward path and those in power are embracing it, even turning a blind eye to it. Many of them know what's at stake, but few say anything because of fear of retaliation. Billionaires are building compounds or fleeing the US for one reason or another leaving us to survive/fix the chaos they've created for us.

It's a war. It's a conflict. It's an exercise. We're in a cease fire. We're still shooting. A deal is in place. No deal is in place. Welcome to the Iran/USA conundrum. A little bit of history will tell us that what some may have hoped would be a quick and easy in and out, might in fact become a messy mistake.

This episode is a history lesson on the origins of Decoration Day and how it ultimately became Memorial day. I'll share some interesting tidbits as well as a fair share of social media bias that's turned a moment we used to use to honor the dead as a propaganda tool for our politics.

Extremism. In politics, it's been steadily on the rise. Fueled by "network" tv and social media, what we once thought of as our political beliefs have steadily changed with the aid of people in power who are more interested in the money that lines their politics. The result is the gradual decay of America.

The debate over the current government shutdown. Who is at fault, who isn't? Throughout the course of the Great American Experiment, we've had plenty of hotly contested moments that defined us as a nation, until now.

We vote for them. Rely on them. Defend them and pretend to think they have our best intentions. But do they? Congress is supposed to be about the people, but the reality is their more interested in themselves to care about us.

The health of us all is in the hands of Robert F. Kennedy jr. For decades we've had a singular sense of healthy eating/lifestyles. But how much of what we've known over the years is true?

What is going on in Iran? What are the motives? Who is setting up the puzzle pieces? Or is this just some other grand game of chess? So if it's chess, then who's really moving the pieces and why?

There's a lot going on about Iran but is the next target going to be Cuba? Here' my take on it.

We're in a conflict with Iran. Along side Israel, the United States is engaged in military operations based on various intelligence reports, depending on whom you ask. So how is a country like Iran able to fight a country like the United States? Well, history can tell you that.
