Of course that happened, because, well, 2020….

MO-Gov: Can We Please Get Rid Of Missouri's Racist Dog Whistling, Superspreader Governor
There aren’t a lot of Governor races for me to cover this year. Governors Roy Cooper (D. NC) and Jay Inslee (D. WA) are looking good heading into re-election and Montana’s Governor race is the only real toss-up.

The Sleep, The Woke, and The Smart
For most black people in America, we encounter three types of white people. The first are the sleepers, those who live in a somnambulant world where race relations are a nightmare that disturbs their rest. Secondly, and the most disturbing, is the woke. They listen to Cardi B, wear Authentic Vans, Lululemon yoga pants, and…

President LAW & ORDER seems pretty reticent when it comes to, er … wait, this can’t be right … a white 17-year-old who killed two people and injured another with an AR-15?

Portland mayor rips Trump to shreds: 'It’s you who have created the hate and the division'
Somehow Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler got hold of my bile duct and squeezed out all my personal feelings about Donald Trump like it was a very unfunny whoopee cushion. After last night’s Trump-encouraged unrest in Portland, Mayor Wheeler went on a righteous rant today — and he successfully diagnosed the disease currently afflicting us. Surprise! It’s Donald…
You are literally NOT safe in Donald Trump's America; we have to flip the script
