ISIS in retreat

According to The Washington Post, the Islamic State terrorist group is in retreat on multiple fronts. This is largely due to the efforts of the Russian military, in my opinion. The reason the IS has been able to get as far as it has prior to his point is on account of US allies Turkey and Saudi Arabia helping them every step of the way. In fact, both countries were recently on the verge of setting off World War III by invading Syria and just may yet attempt such a profoundly foolish action!

The spite voters have crowned a king, and his name is Donald Trump

Spite the Vote by Mark Ames. I've published this link before, but it's more relevant now than it has been in the past. It doesn't mention Donald Trump, but it well and truly explains all about his recent political rise.

As desert to that main course, I also present Revenge of the Simple by Matt Taibbi.
