U.S. Veterans Are Sounding the Alarm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=debW__4963Y
We spoke to veterans protesting Trump at a rally headlined by the Dropkick Murphys. They say he's making a mockery of them and cutting vital VA services.
"It's a real hypocrisy to say you're a patriot and then strip a veteran of their rights.“
An interesting word I met today: anatopism.
Like anachronism, but with regard to place instead of time.

Do people pronounce "disgust" and "discussed" the same way?
I think I end with my tongue against my top teeth with "disgust" but my bottom teeth with "discussed".
I have a lisp which I'm trying to reduce, so I don't know if it's just me as my tongue struggles and my brain is confused and hesitant.
