9/28/19 Sheldon Richman on the Real Story of Israel and Palestine

Scott interviews Sheldon Richman about his new book, Coming to Palestine, a collection of Richman's essays on the founding of Israel.

Israeli Barbarians Torture ‘Suspect’ Into Critical Condition

See, Israel is our greatest ally in the whole wide world -- just don't ask for specifics of anything they have ever done for the U.S. -- and they love gays and pot and democracy and electric scooters.

At Least When Democrats Falsely Accuse Trump of Treason, They Know What It Means

They're just liars. But Trump really seems to think "treason" means disloyalty to him. Imagine Bill Clinton, W. Bush or Obama accusing even the lowest piece of shit in the House -- like Adam Schiff -- of "treason" for daring to investigate him (or for deliberately misquoting them on the House floor). Nuts.
