It’s been fascinating to watch the repeated criticisms of the various economic disasters of late. The plunge in the stock market, the shortage of baby formula, and the ever-increasing rise of gas prices. None of these things had to happen, and in fact, most reputable economists had warned us that the foundations of these respective… Continue reading Correcting the record
Category: Trump is evil
An excellent summation.
Of the damage to the American Republic that the Roberts Court has accomplished in the last 20 years. As one who is old enough to remember Thurgood Marshall on the Court as well as many others, the current crop of conservative Justices, brought to you by the slime at The Federalist Society, are weaklings in… Continue reading An excellent summation.
The nameless servants of evil ( Part 2)
One of the trite amorphisms used by conservatives and others repeatedly is, ” We are not a democracy; we are a Republic.” As if the two terms are mutually exclusive when they are meant to be used together. The United States is a Constitutional Democratic Republic with its governing officials chosen through various democratic processes.… Continue reading The nameless servants of evil ( Part 2)
The nameless servants of evil (Part One)
I have not been able to post for the last two months for many reasons. It’s been a hard couple of months. Between making a pilgrimage back to the sacred soil of my Alma Mater and then on to Shopping Mall – which, thanks to both of them being unmasked hell holes – gave me… Continue reading The nameless servants of evil (Part One)
A rage worth having and expressing.
It certainly has been an unexpected first three months of the year so far. A senseless war in Ukraine with conservatives cheering on the wrong side for a great while, rising gas prices – while refusing to blame the robber barons of the oil companies, and the stock market getting schwacked by those two things… Continue reading A rage worth having and expressing.
Just a reminder
Of why Trump had to be defeated in 2020 and has to be financially, judicially, and physically destroyed in the years after. It is still disturbing beyond measure that 74 million idiots wanted this moron back in the White House and to give him the codes to the nuclear arsenal.
Stephen Colbert nails it.
By highlighting the absurdity of the GOP attempts to gaslight the nation: Over at Trump’s propaganda network, they appear pretty unhappy about it. Gutfield is terrible. Kudos, however, to Betty Cracker for finding this and reporting on it. I dislike the expression “a hit dog will holler” because no one should hit dogs. But boy… Continue reading Stephen Colbert nails it.
A year later and the danger still lurks close by
It has been a year since the unwarranted and thoroughly evil insurrection against the Capitol occurred. “A mob breaking windows, kicking in doors, breaching the Capitol. American flags on poles being used as weapons, as spears. Fire extinguishers being thrown at the heads of police officers. A crowd that professes their love for law enforcement… Continue reading A year later and the danger still lurks close by
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a festive holiday season, well, at least as joyful as one could be in the shadow of the continuing disaster that is COVID and the unacceptable US response to it. Just a reminder of a couple of current facts: Even if Omicron is milder, milder is a relative… Continue reading A picture is worth a thousand words.
A good summary of the current predicament.
It’s been some week, hasn’t it? What with omicron showing up in the US, Japan banning all travel for foreigners – something I happen to agree with – the Supreme Court poised to strike down Roe v Wade and lest we forget, another senseless school shooting, it’s been a depressing week all around. A guy… Continue reading A good summary of the current predicament.
