This will be more of a political and media cleaning since I had enough to do a theme version.
We start with an article from Business Insider on Fox and Friends anchor Ainsley Earhardt.
The South Carolina native was always a TRS favorite in the days before she got the "big gig" because she seemed so real-which isn't always the case for people in the media.
Ainsley sent me a signed photo for the collection years ago and enclosed a note thanking me for asking.
Earhardt wears her religion and beliefs on her sleeve, yet it doesn't come off as overbearing and I'm fine with that because it seems authentic.
I don't agree with her on everything and I do think she is far too soft on Donald Trump, but as long as you are honest and that's who you are it's all good.
It's pretty difficult to watch their show or read this article and dislike Ainsley Earhardt.
Full disclosure-I don't watch Fox and Friends mainly because I cannot stand the two "gentlemen" anchors with her.
Now THEY are overbearing!!
We all have various levels of concern in our dealings with North Korea and I find it interesting to look at the way of life there with the propaganda from the regime as a constant presence in daily life.
Two articles from the inbox on this topic as Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times writes about the country, its people and political solutions to this situation.
Evan Osnos of the New Yorker pens a similar article that deals with the political side a bit more.
Both articles are interesting in getting to know a possible future adversary and how they think.
Salena Zito of the New York Post writes about Youngstown, Ohio and the day that sowed the seeds for Donald Trump.
The day in question was September 19,1977 and 5,000 workers lost their jobs at Youngstown Sheet and Tube and the slide was on with U.S Steel and numerous others closed factories that would send that area into a canyon that they have yet to recover from even today.
It is more about Black Monday and the people of Youngstown than Trump, but it relates as the beginning of Democrats leaving the party and turning to the GOP and that would eventually lead to the would-be millionaire populist....
A goodbye to Stanislav Petrov at the age of 77.
Who was Stanislav Petrov?
Only the guy that might have saved the world in 1983.
Petrov was the Soviet military officer that received a false alarm that the United State had launched five nuclear missiles that were on their way to Moscow and chose not to retaliate with Soviet missiles that would have just about destroyed everything known to man.
Sometimes the biggest heroes are the people you don't know...
