How about this? All the players and coaches stay in the locker rooms during the national anthem. You know, like they did for decades before they started milling about on the sidelines during the anthem in 2009.

That's when the Defense Department paid the NFL millions to require players to be present during the anthem as part of "paid patriotism" drive. You know all those military tributes, fly-bys, and other patriotic displays before all sorts of sporting events? None of them are honest, spontaneous displays, they're all paid for with your tax dollars.

The DoD spends tens of millions or more each year on marching bands, patriotic concerts, sponsorships, and other public displays. Ostensibly it's for recruitment but it's really to drive up jingoistic nationalism and to make the military immune to question or protest. Worst of all, police departments have gotten into the act. The slide into fascism didn't start with Trump, it just accelerated.

The Australian newspaper was generous enough to give my photo title "Alone" a two page spread in their Weekend Australian magazine today, including a short write-up as well.

And many thanks to my wife, Gabi, who is always supportive in this obsessive passion of mine.

In her yearly meet-the-press session before her summer vacation, #AngelaMerkel put forward the #EuropeanUnion as an example of cooperation and #multilateralism. While reaffirming the centrality of #Germany's trans-Atlantic relations with the US, she acknowledged that #US President Donald #Trump had put the two country's traditional friendship 'under pressure.'

While avoiding confrontational language, Merkel sketched out a vision of a multilateral #Europe ready to emancipate itself somewhat on the US and assume a greater role globally. Merkel said that events of the past months had 'confirmed' the truth her statement from May 2017 that 'the days when we could completely rely on the US are in part over.' And she added that Europe's geography made it predestined to exert greater influence.
