*”Give me clean, beautiful and healthy air – not the same old climate change (global warming) bullshit! I am tired of hearing this nonsense. It’s a Russian hoax.
*Democratic lawmakers and even some members of Trump’s own party reacted with alarm to a series of inflammatory morning tweets in which the president called the prosecution of his former campaign chairman Paul Manafort “a hoax” and escalated his attacks on the investigation led by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.
* Russian interference in our elections: He brushed it off as a hoax. He mused that it might be China, or a guy from New Jersey, or “somebody sitting on their bed who weighs 400 pounds.” He said President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia had assured him it wasn’t true. And, he added, “I really believe that when he tells me that, he means it.”
* Investigation of Russian interference: Robert Mueller is being asked to testify yet again. He said he could only stick to the Report, & that is what he would and must do. After so much testimony & total transparency, this Witch Hunt must now end. No more Do-Overs. No Collusion, No Obstruction. The Great Hoax is dead!
* The president called a New York Times report about overcrowded and unsanitary conditions at a Border Patrol facility in Clint, Texas, a “hoax.” “I think it’s a disgrace and the New York Times is basically a partner with the Democrats,” Trump said.
* President Donald Trump on Monday claimed Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination was “caught up in a hoax set up by the Democrats. The things they said about him, I don’t even think he ever heard of the words. It was all made up. It was fabricated and it’s a disgrace.
*After former Special Counsel Robert Mueller called President Trump’s previous remarks praising WikiLeaks beyond “problematic” on Wednesday, the president told reporters the group was a “hoax.” “So, WikiLeaks is a hoax, just like everything else. And all of those problems having to do with crime were the biggest hoax of all,” Trump said.
*President Donald Trump blasted House Democrats after they announced the launch of a new ‘abuse of power’ investigation. The targets include his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, son-in-law Jared Kushner, disgraced former lawyer Michael Cohen and former adviser Roger Stone. ‘It’s a political hoax,’ Trump said, ‘I cooperate all the time with everybody.’
*Trump on the Green New Deal: “That’s a hoax like the hoax I just went through… under that deal, everybody in this room gets fired. All of the thousands of guys and women standing on these buildings gets fired.
*Trump asserted that the official unemployment rate is “one of the biggest hoaxes in American modern politics.”
*In a desperate attempt to discredit adult film star Stormy Daniels, Donald Trump privately called her allegations a “hoax” and said that the affair didn’t happen because she’s not his type, according to The Washington Post.
The real definition of the word hoax is this: Anything that is absolutely true, but which Donald Trump denies.
Now you know.

The most important problems in economics involve the excessive income/wealth/power Gaps between the richer and the poorer.
Wide Gaps negatively affect poverty, health and longevity, education, housing, law and crime, war, leadership, ownership, bigotry, supply and demand, taxation, GDP, international relations, scientific advancement, the environment, human motivation and well-being, and virtually every other issue in economics.
Implementation of The Ten Steps To Prosperity can narrow the Gaps:
Ten Steps To Prosperity:
2. Federally funded Medicare — parts a, b & d, plus long-term care — for everyone
3. Provide a monthly economic bonus to every man, woman and child in America (similar to social security for all)
4. Free education (including post-grad) for everyone
5. Salary for attending school
6. Eliminate federal taxes on business
7. Increase the standard income tax deduction, annually.
8. Tax the very rich (the “.1%”) more, with higher progressive tax rates on all forms of income.
9. Federal ownership of all banks
10. Increase federal spending on the myriad initiatives that benefit America’s 99.9%
The Ten Steps will grow the economy, and narrow the income/wealth/power Gap between the rich and you.

Europe’s heatwave could now cause catastrophic melting of Greenland’s ice sheet
The same heat wave that swept across Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom this week, breaking high-temperature records reaching up to 114 degrees, is wafting over to Greenland and could cause catastrophic melting, the United Nations said Friday.
Reuters reports that the heat could cause record melting of one of the world’s largest ice sheets, contributing to rising sea levels around the globe. The Greenland ice sheet has been struggling in recent scorching weeks, according to Denmark data tracking the gains and losses of the ice mass.
“In July alone, it lost 160 billion tonnes of ice through surface melting,” said U.N. World Meteorological Organization spokeswoman Clare Nullis. “That’s roughly the equivalent of 64 million Olympic-sized swimming pools. Just in July. Just surface melt — it’s not including ocean melt as well.”
If the Greenland ice sheet melts entirely, it would raise global sea levels by 7 meters, or approximately 23 feet.,

Trump’s brilliant followers will tell you it’s a Chinese hoax. And so the world ends due to stupidity.

Senate Intelligence panel warns of election-security threat
The Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday unveiled a report warning that Russian election interference in the 2016 election was broader than previously believed.
The report described “extensive activity” directed by the Russian government to exploit weaknesses in U.S. election systems and warned that the U.S. “must create effective deterrence” to prevent further cybersecurity issues.
The report said Russia targeted election systems in all 50 states, although there was “no evidence that any votes were changed.”
Lawmakers applauded progress on preventing such foreign meddling over the last three years, but the committee’s vice chairman, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), said he hoped the findings would fuel a stepped up effort to improve election security.
“This threat remains urgent,” he said. [NPR, The New York Times]
