Nature is Falling

Nature is FallingWARNING! . . . If you are the lingering remnant of several individuals known as Neanderthals, you are to read this post carefully. We also apologize to our regular readers of the Embroiled News, for the inconvenient truths here in, and advising to take precautions, when encountering Neanderthals. During the last few months, they have been spotted both in Washington, D.C., and in France, at the recent meeting of the Paris Climate Accord.
Unless you been time-traveling, the results of the Paris Climate Accord, should be known to everyone, as a most self destructive move by any U.S. Presidents. Understandably, as Neanderthals, to survive they need to stay focused to their twelve coal producing states’ bases. Oddly, this current group of Neanderthals, are regarded as the coal industry saviors, and it’s apparently a good political move for all Neanderthals who will face their constituents soon. However, the long, redundant speaking points mentioned in Paris, were irrelevant without engagement to reality, or having reference to well known, proven scientific facts.
Supposedly, they are competent enough to make our government function on our behalf, for the common good. Yet we should receive, and demand more from our elected officials, even if they act and legislate like Neanderthals.
Being Neanderthals, they seem to lack the understanding that climate change, it’s the warming of our atmosphere, and it’s real. Nature, is relentlessly eroding every day, hours and seconds. We are all in part the cause of its rapid demise. Admitting, adjusting, and changing our behavior, should be our united effort, if we wish to save the future existence on this life sustaining planet.
In 1986 a small Embroiled News team visited Mendenhall Glacier (also Sitaantaagu) located about 12miles from downtown Juneau in the southeast area of the U.S. State of Alaska. Years later, in 2006, two of the same team members revisited the Mendenhall Glacier, and were stunned by how the ice fields had retreated, and the once small lake at its face, had tripled in size.
These are eye witness facts that are continually occurring across the globe, while the Neanderthals, through willful ignorance and disinterest, or without even understand it, are selling out the core principles of the United States of America.
Please take a moment to read the poem, “Nature is Falling.” It was inspired when visiting Black Glacier, Alaska.

Our Tribute to Mark Twain
Samuel Clemens -- Mark Twain -- 1835 - 1910
Our Tribute:
Mark Twain was born in 1835, and lived until his 70s, which he considered “the time of life when you arrive at a new and awful dignity.” The writer regarded old age with the same acerbic wit that made him the greatest humorist of his time. Tragedy always seemed to be knocking at Twain’s door. He lived through the death of three children and his wife, and financial troubles weighed heavy on him — but for Twain, “humor [was] the great thing, the saving thing after all.” We will periodicly post a few of Twain’s crankiest quotes that celebrate the father of American literature’s sharp tongue.

Generalissimo Donald Trump, on Easter Sunday. . .

How quickly our political leaders can make us slip into yet another quagmire, or armed conflicts. The Russian questions have not been addressed, while North Korea looms on the horizon as a deterrent, to the suspected cause of a botched presidential election. Protests have been taking place in more than 150 locations across the United States to call on President Donald Trump to release his tax returns . . . Will Generalissimo Donald Trump, follow Kellyanne Conway advice, who said the president would not be releasing his tax returns because "people don't care." . . . REALLY?
The Tycoon and the Trump Presidency Connecton
Click to expand picture
Hello everyone. Sam Mc Guffin here. I’m reporting that more dots have been connected with the tycoon who is evidently behind the Trump presidency. He is hedge fund executive, Robert Mercer, who with his family, have gradually become major power brokers in Donald Trump's Washington political affairs, or better known as, non starters policies and major debacles. As most of us can recall, last summer Ted Cruz campaign was floundering, and once his polls slipped, Robert Mercer, who was Ted’ backer, abandoned ship. Donald Trump, then became his new front man. Things, immediately, began to shine for Donald , which was the reason why he bragged that he was “Very Rich” and said that, “he alone was personally footi’n the bill for his entire campaign” – Really?
But hold on! The actual truth was that, Robert Mercer and his fam, were actually holding the money bag, and especially the purse strings! The Mercer’ have spent upwards of $18.5 million in this past political campaign circus, and to make sure they wouldn’t get swindled by Trump, they appointed, Steve Bannon and Kellyanne Conway as Donald’s personal handlers. Robert Mercer has also donated heavily to other conservative organizations, including purchasing 50% of Breitbart.com – And all the dots were now unmistakably, connected!
Robert Mercer later decided to exploit America's populist insurgency. Like Trump, Chief Strategist Steve Bannon is a Washington outsider who has never been elected to not even a local dog catcher’ political position. Yet the agenda had been set, to shake the very foundation of our democratic system. Rightly or wrongly, the Mercers had paid to have the ear of the president, and wanted to get their moneys worth, and snuck in the proposal for Jeff Sessions to be Trump's Attorney General.
Next comes this scene, just as if we were spit’n and sweat'n in Bizarro World: Over the course of the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump voters said that, “we’re supporting our candidate because Trump’s wants to disrupt the political order in Washington and get things done.” Fortunately, the latter is still very much in doubt, while the former is looking more and more like a mission accomplished.
In ending this article, let me say a few words to you, and all the readers of the Embroiled News: you’ve got to get yourself informed before we’ll get boondoggled, by a two bits flamboyant politician who will deceive us all until we have reached the poor house. So here’s where you can continue to read some more of these genuine facts:

The Flag, Uncle Sam, and Mr. Trump

There hasn’t been one day since Donald Trump’s inaugural when calamities or scandals have not been reported, or fabricated with several tweets from our president. Both at home and across the world, there aren’t any doubts, that the Trump’ presidential first one hundred days, has soured – at a midpoint. Ever since James Comey and Admiral Mike Rogers, confirmed the ongoing NSA and the FBI's investigation, about the alleged ‘Russian hackers’ interference,’ in the 2016 election, the masses are poised, to press the impeach button mode.
Carl Bernstein, called Donald Trump, “a compulsive liar,” and has assured us that, “he is in the cover-up phase of his presidency.” Others, who have followed the president’s daily tweeting, have made the correlation that false conspiracies theories, are the main staple in our president daily decision making.Robert Reich, questions if while we have a conservative Republican majority government, we have the political will to impeach yet another sitting president. He has also calculated that there is enough evidence to begin the impeachment proceedings by invoking the 25th amendment. According to Reich, the following evidence is at the top of a lengthy list:
1. Trump has accused former president Obama of illegally wiretapping Trump Tower, without giving evidence.
2. Trump is profiting while president, by steering foreign business and diplomats to his product brand of hotels, spas, golf courses, and other Trump family related commercial activities in the US and foreign markets.
3. Trump violated the First Amendment, including castigating and accusing the US and foreign press, as the “enemy of the people.”
4. Trump assisted the enemy, during his 2016 presidential election, with the support from Russian hackers.
All its needed, is a 2/3 congressional majority vote to remedy the incompetence of our present White House players.
Here’s a final word. Conservative humourist PJ O' Rourke once quipped that "Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work, and then they get elected and prove it.”
