A few words

Fresh malinformation

What You Won’t Learn About the Odyssey from a Movie “This birth of literature out of a magical mystery song is our inheritance from the past….”
Clearing Out the Stragglers “… and America will become a City on a Hill. Like, um, London. Or Paris. Or Belfast.”
Money Fights “Government always grows until it’s destroyed by a revolution or an internal collapse.”
Making a Terrorist “… but whenever she had to spend 15 minutes in the company of said underprivileged, she would realize that she found them disgusting, badly smelling, noisy, and very annoying.”
The absence of the flinch “Trump speaks the way humans evolved to listen.”
