yep, and this will be the first Presidential Inauguration that I have not watched on TV since Eisenhower's in 1953 when I was 6. But the good news is I will spend the time I would have otherwise wasted watching TV working out at the gym
You post this as if you think we actually CARE what you do?

I'm watching it this year since I'm retired now. But I didn't watch Obama and Michelle farewell speech. I just couldn't take it anymore.

"A coalition of 25 military and national security experts, including former advisers to Ronald Reagan and George W Bush, has warned that climate change poses a “significant risk to US national security and international security” that requires more attention from the US federal government." https://www.theguardian.com/environm...-security-risk
Rear Adm. Jonathan White, the Navy's chief oceanographer and head of its climate-change task force, is one of the most knowledgeable people in the military about what's actually happening on our rapidly heating planet. Whenever another officer or a congressperson corners White and presses him about why he spends so much time thinking about climate change, he doesn't even try to explain thermal expansion of the oceans or ice dynamics in the Arctic. "I just take them down to Norfolk," White says. "When you see what's going on down there, it gives you a sense of what climate change means to the Navy — and to America. And you can see why we're concerned." http://www.rollingstone.com/politics...-risk-20150212
There are plenty of other sources but you already seem to have your mind made up and I don't want to be held responsible for changing it
Some people think fascism happening in the U.S (by Trump) but it is not only problem for the U.S it is one of the most serious problem for the world. Especially, 3rd world countries having that problem in these days. What causes it ? I think answer is simple. It is all about democracy because democracy doesn't work as intended. Voters have to get certification and anyone who doesn’t have one, shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
There are articles about Trump and ''voter cerfification'' , you should read these.
There are many bases in South Pacific and other areas on islands or coastal areas that are threatened by rising waters of the seas due to climate change, ice areas melting...
Not to mention storms that damage installations---
Episode on Madame Secretary about that issue around Christmas time...
Even episode television seems to be closer to the truth of the situation that YOUR military contacts...

No, it's not my job to prove you non-existent point...you stated something very clearly, you failed to prove your own damn point....
LOL, you use Rolling Stone, the same people who put out a false rape accusation...
