“Space is going to be…It’s going to be the future,” said President Donald Trump at a ceremony to unfurl the flag of his new Space Force today.
Trump stressed the importance of space “both in terms of defense and offense and so many other things,” he said. “And already, from what I’m hearing and based on reports, we’re now the leader in space.”
“As you know, China, Russia, perhaps others, started off a lot sooner than us,” Trump said. “We should have started this a long time ago, but we’ve made up for it in spades. We have developed some of the most incredible weapons anyone’s ever seen. And it’s moving along very rapidly.”
Trump then discussed what seemed to be a secret military weapon.

“The Barnes Foundation would attack…the enemies of intelligence and imagination in art, whether or not those enemies are protected by financial power or social prestige.” – Dr. Albert C. Barnes
Those words begin film maker Don Argott’s documentary, The Art Of The Steal, a chronological depiction of just how those enemies of art can fight back utilizing those very financial powers and social prestiges Dr. Barnes believed they might be protected by. Argott’s film shows how a private collection of billions of dollars of art can virtually be stolen by people in power if they feel those riches are not being used to the best of their ability.
In 1922, Dr. Barnes, an inventor and pharmacist (the man produced a cure for gonorrhea), began acquiring hundreds of pieces of art, art that he believed to be visually or significantly important, not necessarily what was considered the best works by the best artists.
