Two Sides of the Same Con

If you take a moment and listen to the so-called moderate wing of the Republican party, they are as extreme as the rest. This weekend Utah Senator Mitt Romney was roundly booed by members of his party at the Utah GOP convention. The crime that elicited the verbal censure from...

Received this e-mail from MJ Hegar’s (D. TX) U.S. Senate campaign: MJ Hegar (D.

Stephen Miller IMO is the stringpuller and leading this country into ruin.

Stephen Miller is behind all of the carnage we are facing.  We have known Trump is a puppet and I read and reread Miller’s biography and I wonder why Mueller did not interview him.   The House should start immediate investigations on Stephen Miller. Based on this, I believe he is...

Republicans and the new defense: “We were just giving orders.”

Following the fall of the Nazi regime, and at the Nuremberg trials, certain German defendants — including concentration camp guards and bureaucrats — raised a famous defense:  “I was just following orders.”   I noticed recently that Trump and Republican have invented a new variant of the defense:  “I was just giving orders.”...

The Gang of Hate

Not only has the Republican Party allowed Donald John Trump to operate above the law, but they have also sanctioned his acts beyond humanity.  In 2013 eight Senators, 4 Democrats and 4 Republicans [The Gang of Eight] made a serious foray into ending America’s much-disputed entry policy for foreign emigres...

Is Nancy Pelosi Saving the Politics by Shading the Messengers?

< p class=”is-empty-p” style=”text-align:justify”> Speaker Nancy Pelosi needs to be careful not to throw shade at the millennials she accused of being Twitter creations this past weekend.  I believe that Ms. Pelosi is trying to head off the Democrats mimicking the Tea Party.  The Republican faction, now known as the...

Racist Trump supporters mock children in cages

In Latin America, the situation has deteriorated to the extent that criminal gangs have taken over large areas in the wake of civil wars in the region.  Much of this is due to a US policy of deporting thousands and thousands of gang members, trained in US prisons in LA, into Latin...

Jews and Japanese Agree: These ARE Concentration Camps.

I’m submitting this as a diary rather than a comment because I want to draw attention to a particular moment in  moment in history that was examined in today’s WaPo: For Japanese Americans, the debate over what counts as a ‘concentration camp’ is familiar. In 1998, there was an exhibit...

This plan revives the horror of the President’s family separation policy, inflicting its inhumanity on...
