Larry's inclusion of Proverbs 16:18 to describe the elite roosters in the US is appropriate: "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."
I found this commentary on the Scripture...further apt description of the elite:
Pride: Often viewed as a dangerous trait, pride can blind individuals to their weaknesses. It creates a false sense of security, making one vulnerable to failure.
Haughty Spirit: This refers to an attitude of superiority and disdain for others. Such arrogance often leads to negative consequences.
Larry is 100% correct about Rachel Blevins. She consistently has smart, well-informed guests. She is intelligent, gracious and likeable.
I think with the fluctuating situation concerning Iran, the pressure on Trump--from outside sources and from within himself--has to be close to the point where his cork will pop. By this I mean he will/could make an irrational decision that will cause devastating results. The poor and clamorous decision will be a release for him, as he aims to 'subdue the enemy' while glorifying himself. Oh, and factor in that pesky Israel creature that continues to buzz his ear...he won't swat it, but he will keep placating it.
Netanyahu has told Trump that he will hold off while the US negotiates, but will hit Iran one way or another with the goal of decapitation and destruction of the regime's propaganda instruments as well as means of arming the populace to bring about regime change.
"Rico" most commonly refers to the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, a powerful U.S. federal law enacted in 1970 to combat organized crime.
1. The RICO Act (Legal)
Purpose: Originally designed to dismantle the Mafia, it allows prosecutors to charge leaders of a criminal organization for crimes they ordered or supervised, even if they didn't commit them personally.
Key Requirements: To be charged, there must be an "enterprise" and a "pattern of racketeering activity" (at least two "predicate" crimes, like bribery, mail fraud, or money laundering, within 10 years).
Penalties: Criminal convictions can lead to up to 20 years in prison (or life for certain crimes) and the forfeiture of all assets linked to the enterprise.
Civil RICO: Private individuals can sue for treble damages (triple the actual loss) if they are harmed by a RICO violation.
