I just have to hear an american accent on the news these days and I all but just stop listening and sort say whatever! and unconsciously just switch off and wait to hear something of interest.

Russian interference in foreign elections goes further than the US. It is complex and difficult to explain, which is why it hasn't been covered extensively by the media, but I think that will change over the next couple of years.
Papadopoulos is described as "proactive cooperator." Former prosecutor tells me that sometimes means "wore a wire." https://t.co/nQyVCbXy6x

Up📈7.8% past year.
Down📉31.5% last 10 years. #EndingWarOnCoal pic.twitter.com/xr20OBb2DV
I would imagine that 50% are below average... that's how math works. The real question is what is average now vs before common core. https://t.co/OnwYhzS7iU

My Twitter account was taken down for 11 minutes by a rogue employee. I guess the word must finally be getting out-and having an impact.
