       While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world”—and during “Black History Month”—Republican (fascist/socialist) President Trump posts a video on TruthSocial depicting Democratic (socialist/fascist) former de facto President Obama (either a natural born subject of the United Kingdom enclave of Kenya, or a natural born resident of the republic of Hawaii) and his wife Michelle as primates.

       NOTE: There is enough legitimate, negative criticism that can be leveled at the record of the “Deporter-in-Chief” (winner of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize) without having to resort to this ad hominem, racist portrayal.

       Douglas A. Collins, Esq., Secretary of Veterans Affairs, releases his department’s annual report on suicides committed by veterans of the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries), stating that their rate is twice that of the non-veterans, and are on the rise.

       Question: Why are veterans suicide rates so high?  Could it be a guilty conscience over having to be ordered to commit war crimes?

       NOTE: As an attorney (Officer of the Court) Collins was ineligible to serve in two branches of government at the same time, according to Article I, Section 6 [Clause 2].
