Kellyanne Conway Just Admitted That the Jim Acosta Video Was Edited

Armistice Day Celebrated Peace. That Peace Is Fraying.
 
The peace that has held in Europe since 1945 is beginning to falter. The United States is slipping the bonds that have tied it to its allies for seven decades, and to France almost from the birth of the country. Nationalism is festering all over the continent, and the countries whose political long-term memories are better than ours are looking on this with alarm. With all due respect to veterans living and dead, including my father, Lt. Cdr. John P. Pierce, USNR, we needed Armistice Day this year of all years more than we needed Veterans Day.

Neil Young Blames 'So-Called President' Donald Trump After Losing His Home in the California Wildfires
 
By Sunday, the devastating wildfires across California were only 25 percent contained as the death toll rose to 31 across the state. An estimated 200 people still remain missing, and in response to the disaster, President Donald Trump took the opportunity to blame California's "gross mismanagement of the forests" for the mass destruction. Hundreds of structures have been destroyed in the fires; among them is Neil Young's home. On his website, Young called out Trump for his refusal to believe in climate change. "California is vulnerable," he wrote, "Not because of poor forest management as DT (our so-called president) would have us think." Read More
