New Mueller Indictments Expected as Soon as Tuesday, CBS Reports https://www.bloombergquint.com/uselecti ... gs.k79rhRs
Jerome Corsi told viewers of his YouTube live-stream broadcast Monday that he’d been cooperating with the inquiry since receiving a subpoena from FBI agents at his home in August. He said he expects to be indicted by Mueller “for some form or other of giving false information” in the probe despite doing everything he could to cooperate. Corsi said the possible charges arose related to Roger Stone, a friend and longtime Republican operative who was a Trump campaign adviser, and his ties to Russia and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.

This has nothing to do with party affiliation. Trump and Bernie both ran on apolitical party platforms.
This is about culture. Gen-X has hit the breaks on cultural revolution until we receive an answer as to how this whole globalist agenda benefits us.
We have been part of Baby Boomer social experiments our whole life. Racial ratios and the restructuring of the nuclear family have jaded our belief that doing what sounds right is actually doing what is right.
The Great Recession, it’s only fair to admit, hit everyone hard. Many boomers had stable careers and established families by the time the recession arrived. Most millennials were still in school or just out. But Xers were moving into what should have been the most solid part of their careers. Aged somewhere between 28 and 44 when the crash of 2008 hit, many Xers had the wind knocked out of them just as they had landed that job they’d been fighting for years to get. Others had recently bought homes, or had children. The Great Recession was no picnic for anyone, but it arguably screwed Xers the worst, as this US News story describes.
The crash also pushed Xers in extreme directions, along an anti-establishment trajectory that led to the Tea Party on one side and lefty organizing of the Occupy model on the other. A year after the crash, Xers were less likely than millennials or boomers to register as Democrats, as this Gallup poll shows. A skepticism about mainstream politics has not entirely lifted.
That’s why women my age don’t like Hillary Clinton. It’s not about politics. It’s about love.
We may disagree with her on policy issues (which I certainly do). But we dislike her because she torpedoed girls’ dreams of real love. And you don’t take that away from a whole generation without paying the price. (read comment section)
Caught between vast, self-regarding waves of boomers and millennials, Generation X is steeped in irony, detachment, and a sense of dread. One of their rank argues that this attitude makes it the best suited to preserve American tradition in these dark new days.

Anyone got a suggestion for finding my "generation screwed" thread from DCF? I thought I archived it.

SAN DIEGO -- People on the Mexican side of the border could be seen climbing the fence near Friendship Park Tuesday afternoon after part of the Central American migrant caravan arrived in Tijuana.
Several people scaled the fence and sat on top of it. A few jumped or crawled to openings in the fence onto U.S. soil but quickly ran back as Border Patrol agents approached.
Several border agents were seen patrolling the area in trucks, 4-wheelers, a helicopter and on horses.
The U.S. Border Patrol sent a news release stating it believes some of the people at the fence are from the caravan that's been traveling through Mexico from Honduras.
