Trusting the Science…

In the first week of April this year, the first quantifiable effects of the Covid-19 virus on people of color were released in the press. April 17, 2020, Donald Trump tweeted out ‘Liberate Michigan!’ I am sure many of you think black and brown people are just paranoid when we...

Presser: Trump expands the range of his “we'll have done a good job” death toll from 100k to 240k

briefingbingo.png

Trumpian incompetence continues with number-rigging, even as actual facts get presented by scientists. In today’s presser, he worked in campaign rally rhetoric including softball answers about his impeachment in order to attack Democrats. x PLEASE STOP TELEVISING THESE CORONA CAMPAIGN RALLIES LIVE. THEY ARE BAD FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH. — Richard Stengel (@stengel) March...

#TheTrumpPresidencyIsOver How many US COVID-19 deaths were caused by Trump's nativist incompetence

ETBv-PiXsAAIrVl.jpg

An article in The Atlantic confirms that today’s Trump presser revealed that Trump’s irresponsibility in privatizing the COVID-19 response came from refusing to use many non-US options available earlier. Favoring US firms to produce tests has been part of the “grave costly errors”. Even as there’s an election that needs major...

The “Everything Terrible Trump Has Done So Far” Omnibus (Week 163)

As part of the ongoing project to catalog every awful thing the Trump Administration has done as a reference for future political arguments and whatever few posterity survives to see 2020, here’s everything awful the Trump Administration has done this week. 1834. Created an office to strip citizenship from naturalized Americans...

Wendell Potter on Pete Buttigieg and his work for McKinsey Client Blue Cross and Blue Shield.

Before Pete Buttigieg released the list of McKinsey clients he worked with, Wendell Potter wrote the following on his Twitter account: BREAKING: As a former corporate exec who worked with McKinsey, I may be able to shed light on one of @petebuttigieg’s unnamed McKinsey clients, and why it’s very significant...

There is currently a great diary on dailykos that was on the recommended list for a few seconds. I really, really hope it makes its way back. It asks intelligent and difficult questions about a Medicare for those who want it plan. There are at least as many questions as...

War of His Own World

In the Tom Cruise sci-fi film version of War of the Worlds, the unstoppable aliens intent on destroying mankind was eventually killed by the earth’s polluted environment, a floating swamp so to speak.  What is destroying the Trump administration is the poisonous environment he has created.  Involving himself in foreign...

whistle-blower (-gate) is still about #TrumpRussia

As we wait for more whistle-blower news and an inevitable flurry of Trumpian disinformation and diversions, we need to review that Trump’s impeachable offense in Ukraine was also a move in a corruption history favoring Russia back through Manafort. Trump’s hold on Congressional aid to Ukraine also favored a Russian-backed rebel buildup...

Remember That Time McCain Shamelessly Fomented Racism Until It Literally Confronted Him On Stage?

Evil-trump-face-ap-img

Apparently people don’t. Nor do they remember that his actual response was half hearted, strangely worded, and McCain and his campaign immediately backtracked to excuse McCain’s supporters for their flagrant bigotry. So let’s back up a bit to give some context. The news cycle in recent days has been dominated by stories...

Something very interesting just happened in Italy: The Five Star movement

Something very interesting just happened in the Italian elections and I don’t think it should be dismissed and/or disparaged by the way it is being covered (or not covered) here in the United States.  You are doing to hear that it is aligned with right-wing anti-immigrant parties (it is not,...

Hillary Clinton can add to her basic stage craft, to her inventory of vocal skills. As a public speaker she needs to reach beyond facts and “process” to the emotional “Why” responses that generate persistent commitment. As a presidential candidate Clinton will also need to establish personal connections with the...

Illinois Newspaper Gives Up On Journalism, Bends Over For Fracking Industry

The Southern Illinoisan has a long running competition with the Belleville News-Democrat over which Illinois newspaper has the strongest bias in favor of the coal industry. So I was pleasantly surprised last year when I saw the Southern Illinoisan doing good reporting on the fracking issue, even giving frequent voice...
