“End Nuclear Insanity Before Nuclear Insanity Ends Humanity”
Jan 28, 2026
LLAW’s Nuclear World News’ Image and/or Lead Story for Today . . .
Everyone on planet Earth who can see beyond the end of their nose has known this since Trump’s first term or even long before that. . .
It is unbelievable that he has not been locked up in a prison or insane asylum by the powers that be many years ago yet here he is continuing to reducing the entire world to little more than rubble.
And, yes, the rubble could be of the nuclear war variety, even if he wasn’t able to start it; others could and would in the worst scenarios peddled by Trump along the way
I personally blame our milque-toast congress, judiciary, and military for every day that Trump has not only walked free as a president but as an American citizen. ~llaw

An Important Message from:
Lloyd Albert Williams/Pendergraft, Content Creator . . .
This daily blog post will, for the next several issues at least, contains only the daily compiled LLAW’s Nuclear World News Today for an unknown period without comment or critique because my eyesight has quite suddenly become impossible for me to continue. (Google compiles the category lists from news sources for me automatically during the course of a day, so the articles and stories themselves are not a problem to post, although they are often out of category order, which I will do my best to correct each day.)
But, rest assured, I’m not going away — I am doing everything in my power to remedy the problem with my eyes — and I hope to return to a full daily report, including new, stronger and more internationally important commentary, of “All Things Nuclear” as soon as I am physically able . . . ~llaw\
