What the Real Weaponization of the Federal Government Looks Like

The African American community, at-large, is in a conundrum. While flag-waving bigots and racists are up in arms, sometimes literally—à la January 6, government spying is real for Black Americans. The GOP has decided that the FBI and the DOJ have been weaponized against primarily insurrectionists and old white conservative...

Fortunately, I was home for Christmas and not among those sleeping on the polished hard floor of an airport, with the echo of a disembodied voice repeatedly warning not to leave your bag unattended. I would not say I am a regular flyer, but Southwest has been my frequent flying choice for many...

A part of the nationalistic, anti-immigrant, and rising anti-Semitic hunger in America is the refusal to examine the U.S. side of the border. The last presidential administration wanted to build walls and accused immigrants crossing our southern borders of being rapists and murderers. In 2018 over 30,000 murders were reported...

Revising the invention of tradition(s): more on the Garrett Felber affair at U. of Mississippi.

This continues the diary of two days ago. Nostalgia is a coping mechanism at the place known for its association with William Faulkner. Oxford Mississippi is a place where the nostalgia for a lost cause remains a kind of delusion. When injuries are imagined and retribution seems easy, this happens where...

Trump discussed the possibility of a military coup to change the outcome of the election he lost.

Contradictions and false consciousness inhabit many Trumpists and Trump voters, demanding a crypto-fascist election outcome, a sad commentary on the times. Trump himself is left with autocratic fantasies fed by his closest sycophants. x Sources who have gotten used to Trump’s eruptions over four years sound scared by what’s transpired in...

Biden names Buttigieg as transportation secretary; VA state senator calls for martial law

We are in that strange place where a respected rival gets to lead infrastructure change in a critical area of the US economy and a nutter in VA wants fascism. Darn Constitutional freedoms juxtaposed on the same day. Perhaps trains will run on time. President-elect Joe Biden has tapped former South Bend, Ind.,...

Whiny Trump in the Stahl interview “They were all starting to like me (before COVID)”

Combative Trump tried to bully Lesley Stahl, good luck with that Donald. The Trump release of the interview proves he just wanted a propaganda piece that repeated his stump speech’s talking points.

Pro-lifers say it's okay that Trump used therapy tested on fetal stem cells because … it just is

You’ve probably heard that the Regeneron antibody treatment Donald Trump received and subsequently touted as a “cure” for COVID was tested on cells that originally came from an abortion. I’m sure this isn’t the first time an abortion has saved Donald Trump’s ass (just guessing here), but in this case, he’s the...

Jack Burkman’s house supposedly got raided by the FBI this morning and seized computers and cellphones among other evidence.

Trumpian legal defense logic would suggest that like the COVID toll, Wendy Rittenhouse helped her kid with his guns but she didn’t get killed, and the death toll from her son’s shooting spree was a lot less than Newtown.

I live in a blue state, and it’s pretty clear what Donald Trump thinks of me.
