Oof. My old boss is sending me FoxNews clips. He's an expat and this is where he's still getting his information? I guess they're very conservative in the Philippines and that's what's available. I'm fine with different points of view but one more clip of Tucker Carlson saying something stupid is going to drive me up a wall.Come on, Tony. They ARE Fair and Balanced, after all. ;)

Today’s Highlight in History:
On July 10, 1940, during World War II, the Battle of Britain began as the Luftwaffe started attacking southern England. (The Royal Air Force was ultimately victorious.)
On this date:
In 1908, William Jennings Bryan was nominated for president by the Democratic national convention in Denver.
In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson personally delivered the Treaty of Versailles (vehr-SY’) to the Senate and urged its ratification. (However, the Senate rejected it.)
In 1925, jury selection took place in Dayton, Tennessee, in the trial of John T. Scopes, charged with violating the law by teaching Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. (Scopes was convicted and fined, but the verdict was overturned on a technicality.)
In 1951, armistice talks aimed at ending the Korean War began at Kaesong.
In 1973, the Bahamas became fully independent after three centuries of British colonial rule. John Paul Getty III, the teenage grandson of the oil tycoon, was abducted in Rome by kidnappers who cut off his ear when his family was slow to meet their ransom demands; Getty was released in December 1973 for nearly $3 million.
In 1991, Boris N. Yeltsin took the oath of office as the first elected president of the Russian republic. President George H.W. Bush lifted economic sanctions against South Africa.
n 1992, a New York jury found Pan Am guilty of willful misconduct and responsible for allowing a terrorist bomb to destroy Flight 103 in 1988, killing 270 people, opening the way for civil lawsuits.
In 1999, the United States women’s soccer team won the World Cup, beating China 5-4 on penalty kicks after 120 minutes of scoreless play at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
In 2002, The House approved, 310-113, a measure to allow airline pilots to carry guns in the cockpit to defend their planes against terrorists (President George W. Bush later signed the measure into law).
In 2004, President George W. Bush said in his weekly radio address that legalizing gay marriage would redefine the most fundamental institution of civilization, and that a constitutional amendment was needed to protect traditional marriage.
In 2005, a search-and-rescue team found the body of a missing U.S. commando in eastern Afghanistan, bringing an end to the desperate search for the last member of an ill-fated, four-man special forces unit that had disappeared the previous month.
In 2018, a daring rescue mission in Thailand was completed successfully, as the last four of the 12 boys who were trapped in a flooded cave for more than two weeks were brought to safety along with their soccer coach; the other eight had been brought out in the two preceding days.

Five years ago: Katherine Archuleta, the embattled head of the government’s Office of Personnel Management, abruptly stepped down, bowing to mounting pressure following the unprecedented breach of private information her agency was entrusted to protect. To the cheers of thousands, South Carolina pulled the Confederate flag from its place of honor at the Statehouse after more than 50 years. Actor Omar Sharif, 83, died in Cairo. Actor Roger Rees, 71, died in New York. Opera singer Jon Vickers, 88, died in Ontario, Canada.
One year ago: Britain’s ambassador to the United States, Kim Darroch, resigned following the leak of diplomatic cables that reflected his unflattering opinions about the Trump administration. Fans packed New York City’s Canyon of Heroes for a parade honoring the U.S. women’s national soccer team, winner of the women’s World Cup. Former New York Yankees pitcher Jim Bouton, who exposed the off-field carousing of former teammates including Mickey Mantle in his tell-all book “Ball Four,” died at his Massachusetts home at the age of 80. The independent Atlantic League became the first American professional baseball league to let a computer call balls and strikes at its All-Star Game in York, Pa.
Today’s Birthdays: Former New York City Mayor David N. Dinkins is 93. Actor William Smithers is 93.

Shame that Dr. Fauci made a lot of mistakes...I continue to be amazed about his ability to say anything, literally anything, so completely false and nonsensical, and have his lemmings just eat it up. I think if he said the moon were made of cheese, they'd immediately want to fund a NASA mission with a payload of nothing but wine.

I'll say. Because there's no such thing. There has never been any such thing. Objective journalism is a myth most popularized by William Randolph Hearst and Edward R. Murrow.I try to find news that isn't editorialized but that is not an easy task.I cannot and will not watch CNN. Fox news is better but I try not to not put my political views on here.Oof. My old boss is sending me FoxNews clips. He's an expat and this is where he's still getting his information? I guess they're very conservative in the Philippines and that's what's available. I'm fine with different points of view but one more clip of Tucker Carlson saying something stupid is going to drive me up a wall.You'd be advised to pay attention to Tucker Carlson. He tells it like it is, depressing as it seems.

Went on a Costco run. Not sure that was a good idea but I was concerned we didn't have bread for lunch. $236 later, can't remember if I picked up any bread.Remember when you could walk in to Costco and practically have a meal just on samples? Good times.

I can look at it from any number of perspectives....just happens that all of them say I'm right!There is no use in it anyway; impossible for either side to convince the other to look at things from a different perspective.I will stop with the politics, out of respect for you. Except for my thank god/WTF post on 11/4/2020. :DI try to find news that isn't editorialized but that is not an easy task. I believe both extremes are ridiculous.I cannot and will not watch CNN.

Also agree in keeping politics out of here but at the same time I'm not going to censor the posts, despite popular opinion.
