Macy's Mostly Closed Around Kansas City Metro Amid Changing American Dream

There's a lot of stuff to cover and catch up on but for the late night . . . Here's a good place to take a pause . . .

For now, Kansas City Macy's stores aren't on the kill list of stores set to close but they're also mostly closed and darkened around the metro.

My favorite headline on this topic that's still worth sharing:

Amazon didn't kill Macy's. Macy's did.

We could talk about suspicious boyfriends, the fate of strippers and hope amid Prez-Elect Trump protest all night . . . But the irrefutable fact is that American dream and so many institutions upon which this nation seemed to be built (like middle-class losers overpaying for retail goods) now seem to be forever changed.

Something to think about for the overnight as the countdown to a new generation if American politics begins . . .

CNN - Russian official: 'Republicans trust Putin more than the Democrats'

Fact is the change underway is about lot more than divisive discourse as the toxic culture war and uncertainty about the future threaten to tear apart the very fabric of American identity with no healing or consensus anywhere in sight.

You decide . . .
