^ What's happening on various fronts in the US is pretty depressing, and I suspect is being under-reported. The mainstrean media has the bad habit, imo, of chasing after every one of Trump's immoderate tweets or empty pronouncements like a gaggle of squawking chickens after a handful of grain. I think we've established by now that Trump is a lying blowhard, so isn't it time to hear more about what's actually happening in the US instead?

What ICE is doing, that controvertial pipeline, progress on wall construction are a couple of issues we don't hear much about. I wonder about the gutting of the EPA, the lack of ambassadors and other officials too. I'm surprised we're not hearing more about the effects of these shortfalls, etc.
