Trump Administration officials like National Security Advisor John Bolton and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are urging war against Iran on the grounds that the Shia republic is making common cause with Al Qaeda, which is Sunni and thus Iran’s mortal enemy. Not only is this not true, it cannot be true,.
Alzheimer’s makes patients want to walk. Then it makes them fall. But you can’t restrain them. All that caregivers can do is watch helplessly as their loved ones get up and crash, over and over.
In American politics a politician can express a tone in complete contrast to their reality. It’s the tone that voters believe.
Running for president as a candidate requires candidates to sell out and wimp out to the Republicans. The only question is how.
After my mother fell and broke her arm, she ended up in the hospital. Medicare covered five days in the hospital and three weeks of rehab. Then the insurance troubles began.
Joe Biden is running a presidential campaign predicated on the assumption that there is a middle ground between two extreme sides on every issue. Truth is, the mood of the electorate is binary on a lot of things and are they really wrong? It’s not like you can save just half the planet.

Over the last few years, I have been the sole caregiver for my mother, who is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. The word you keep hearing from professionals is that your loved one is “confused.” But they’re not the only one.

According to legal theorist, the President of the United States is way too busy to deal with all the hassles of facing criminal charges while he is in office. The problem is, modern presidents have a lot of free time. Donald Trump has plenty of time for his ridiculous rallies. Like his predecessors, he watches sports. He golfs one out of every three days. He’s always on Twitter. Let’s face it: being too busy just isn’t a good excuse.
It’s true and totally hilarious: the Trump Administration wants to send additional troops to the Middle East in order to protect the troops who are already in the Middle East.
