Don’t simply go with the primary one as a outcome of it’s handy, or if they’re a pal of a good friend. The commonest way to pay for PMI is to have it rolled into your month-to-month fee and put into an escrow account. But this can be a lot...
Among the countless examples of inane “Washington group-think” is the notion that only Democrats have to “pay for” their legislative priorities (i.e., enact corresponding tax increases and/or spending cuts to match the costs of new programs). Republicans do not remotely consider themselves so constrained — in part because they also are...
The raison d'être of the Republican Party for much of the past 100 years has been to slam the brakes on anything that would make the poor and middle class feel more secure and prosperous. Look at the list of popular government programs and initiatives they’ve decried as “socialism”: unemployment insurance, Social Security,...
On the eve of the Impeachment trial, it will be relived by us. The trial has to be done and we have to look at this insurrection. ( All that are emotionally or mentally able to). We have to deal with the pain to get past the horror and hold power...
The facts of the matter: The Orange Tyrant and his minions incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol. This was an attempted coup d’état. It failed. Republicans are whining that impeachment will divide the nation. Where were they the last four years? The Republican clown car attempted to overturn...
Overcoming the tragedy of 6 January and the coming crises of inauguration week require attention to how it is less about calls for unity and more about Constitutional justice. Pay attention to your doomscrolling; take care of your self. Doomscrolling is the act of consuming a large quantity of negative online news...
Remember to tune to NBC, then switch to ABC just before the Biden debate starts. The reality now is that the Giuliani stunt was meant to coordinate with the second debate, making next week’s stunt more important before the next debate. x So the game plan for tonight is to...

It is the GOP white whale, a continuing trope, to loot the social security system by eliminating it, and Trump wanted no defections in 2020. It is a sign of desperation to step on what has been a third rail of recent decades and a more symbolic attack on the...
Today in disinformation: the plan continues to be no plan, increasing our information search-costs. The best example of that is removing as campaign manager, Brad Parscale, the real manipulator of the real and imagined 2016 data-sets in the swing-states. What is normal functioning for Trump has been disinformation, as he...

I can’t breathe a long sigh when the two exemplars for bad firearms safety, Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam are revised like the cops in E.T. relegated to brandishing radios. Like Trump at St John’s church, some props don’t work. All that’s left is Porky Pig’s speech disability. “Animators working on the...
Good: In a meeting with black Wilmington leaders Monday, Joe Biden said he will create a police oversight board in the first 100 days of his presidency.

I read one thing on IRS.gov that is still in a state of confusion and found even less on VA.gov but I did find this dated today from the Dept. of Treasury. home.treasury.gov/… WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service today announced that Social Security...
Received this e-mail today from Mike Espy’s (D.

I am not a doctor, let me get that straight right off. I do want to talk about what I have learned from speech therapist when my son/grandson was born with a cleft pallet and had not only hearing but speech problems. I also spoke in length to Mel Tillis...
A short-sighted framing of Elizabeth Warren as the “first” intersectional presidential candidate speaks to some problematic fervor, particularly for a tenured feminist professor. Intersectional critique is, after all, “the development of integrated analysis and practice based upon the fact that the major systems of oppression are interlocking.”. Emphasis on the...
The Advocate has a great piece out today about how LGBTQ activists in Iowa are leaning towards support Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg in the Iowa caucus. I wanted to highlight this because they bring a very big issue that is the key reason I support Warren’s campaign: her call...
Honestly, I don’t totally comprehend Trump-ese. No one does. Not even him. Everything he says seems to have been Google translated from English to Cantonese to Zapf Dingbats and back to English. But, hey, it sure sounds like Donald Trump just stated that he’s willing to take a few swats at entitlement...
There is a lot to this story but it boils down to one thing, disrespect and unpatriotic. The legs were returned…unadjusted and unuseable. I know and many vets know there are hoops to jump through but many get tired of waiting for permission to do things like walk without...
No need to say much..You poor cultish people….READ for Goodness sake.

In 2016, when President Hillary Clinton (oh I am sorry right-wing) when former candidate Hillary Clinton announced she had pneumonia, along with releasing her medical records, the Conservative smear machine sprang into action. We saw a flurry of Trump-ites, and Republican operatives tell us she had either suffered a stroke,...

I haven’t seen Amy McGrath’s ad about Moscow Mitch dissing coal miners who suffer from black lung disease yet on the TV, but McGrath is being credited with getting Moscow Mitch to pop his head out of his shell to write a letter to the Labor Department over a current...
My answer is Yes. Every time Democrats roll out a proposal to reform health insurance, or reduce education debt, or expand access to pre-school, or invest in infrastructure, or fund education, etc., there is an expectation that the Democrats will explain — in the weeds and with rough mathematical credibility — “how they...
Un-fucking-believable During the government shutdown, Trump made sure that IRS workers were classified as “essential” government employees to process tax refunds. I’m not sure why, since they seem to have all of the time in the world. I just called the IRS with a simple question and was informed that...
Pete Buttigieg is pretty much the polar opposite of Donald Trump. He’s charming. He’s knowledgeable. He’s intelligent. He’s measured. He speaks in complete sentences. And there are no McNugget sauces gradually coagulating within the long-forgotten interstices of his lardy torso. He also has a solid plan for approaching his debates...
Governor Matt Bevin and the Republican legislature have nothing else better to do than pass more restrictive abortion laws in the hopes that they make it to the SCOTUS and Roe v. Wade is overturned. How is that going so far? Once again, Kentucky Republican politicians acted like doctors and...

On the one hand, Pete Hegseth claims he never washes his hands and Brian Kilmeade gestated for nine months in a Folgers can full of bathtub gin*, so the stuff they say is bound to make little to no sense. On the other hand, they’re regulars on Fox & Friends, which...
In the euphoric days following the Democratic steamroller in the US House, the conversation quickly turned, since as Democrats we’re actually concerned with governing, The Democratic challengers had made quite a few rather concrete promises, and the question was how to actually get anything done in a split congress.

Here is an important piece from a community organizer in Pike County, Kentucky — a woman by the name of Mikaela Curry — on the coal miners’ “friend” Senator Mitch McConnell. This is from someone who lives in Trumplandia, and I think her views are far more important than any of the...
As we face our third government shutdown under unified GOP control, a lot of people will be impacted. Veterans who depend on disability checks are always in danger of not getting paid during a shutdown. Some non-essential government employees will be forced home without pay, and aren’t guaranteed back pay. The worst...

Some people should not be in politics. I’m not talking just about perennial losers like Dick Morris or Doug Schoen.
