Be careful about this a comment as it will come back to bite you. Russia is expanding and threatening and the new SecState has major ties to Russia.

Litany of world disorder? With the exception of Clinton's first term, Obama's second term was the most quiet chapter in recent US history. Just think: no US wars.

With the exception of Syria and all its problems, and the Ukraine, the world is comparatively peaceful. Europe and the US are on a program of stable economic growth.

This is the "chaos" Trump has inherited.

Happens all the time. The bureaucrats decide how much time will be spent on what subjects. How much for the 3 R's, how much for gender diversification studies.

What does Trump have to do with Kerry joining Yale? You are getting increasingly paranoid. Everything, according to you, revolves around Trump. Wink

Nice try at deflection... you still NEVER criticise Trump.

Also, he put the clown in charge of the EPA that has taken court action against EPA numerous times and who is totally in the pocket of the oil and gas industry.

But no, you'd never criticise that. you never criticise ANYTHING about Trump.

You cant and probably never will do it. It is a bit of an indictment on you. After all he appoints an ANTI-ENVIRONMENT person to the EPA, a person with zero experience with schools into Education. And it goes on....
