Just finished watching Oliver Stone's "Untold History of the United State."

We are living it again. I encourage all to view it. Especially noteworthy is how and why Hitler came into power, US banking, ..actually all of it is a must see. Proves that the history taught in schools is seriously lacking. And, yes, we already had a "socialist President" who saved Capitalism. Oh, the paradoxes. But it is all being repeated now. Biden could be our next FDR and events may require him to be. Smelly Butler, McArthur, JP Morgan, Elenor Roosevelt, ...and more. Just so scary how we are the mirror image of it all right now. (I watched it on Amazon Prime but it is also on YouTube which I refused to use today)

Stone is as reliable as RT. He's POS.
