ALL of this was either A) known or B) knowable, prior to BREXIT. Nothing magical is happening here.

We have a choice as democracies: Get VERY serious about evidence-based policymaking, or suffer the consequences of magical thinking and ignorance.

Just a terrorist organization in another country launching rockets at another country. No point in covering THAT in the Western press …

Nazis, Communists, and Jihadists are not your friends.

Have a nice day.

I'm doing some writing and I am remembering the late Howard Hesseman, who played (with relish) Dr. Johnny Fever on WKRP.

What a joy he was. And now, for my new novel, also an inspiration.

Wherever you are … rock on, Howard.
