TWO SITUATIONS TO WATCH DEVELOPING

First, it seems that the fighting in Ukraine has to do with Putin, president of Russia. On the opening night of the Olympics, he was quoted as saying that the demise of the Soviet Union was one of the worst happenings ever, or something to that affect. Now we hear he wants Ukraine back into the Russian net. One article about this calls Putin a "thuggish" leader. He earned that description of himself by heading the KGB, an Intelligence branch of the NKVD, if I have these initials right. It's not easy to remember data of the initial kind. 

 The other situation to watch is what is already called the News Police. Where? In the United States of America. The president has said a government inspector will "inspect" news agencies where they are. This is, of course, unconstitutional. The president says he taught the Constitution for ten years. So he knows just how to break it. Greta Van Susteren says she didn't believe she'd live to see this day. She's on the television channel that the president watches, we are told, for he thinks it's giving out the real facts. He cannot allow that. So, they are all up for inspection, but most viewers will likely feel he's after just one channel. 

I warned you of the current presidential Power Grab and advised you to do something about it. Actually, I think Congress may be working on this very grab of power, but it takes them forever to get it done.
