No high fives – NCAA will have crowdless March Madness

Like some luxury hybrid/EV cars’ piping exhaust noise into the entertainment system, will TV networks add crowd noise to broadcasts. Darn that regional/homecourt advantage. x Breaking: NCAA president Mark Emmert has announced that all championship events, including the Division I men's and women's basketball tournaments, will take place with only essential staff...

Trump in India for Fat Tuesday, has verbal slap-fight with Jim Acosta

It was the same thing, Trump stands with the Russians and fails to acknowledge accountability for the revenge tour. CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta again traded verbal blows with President Donald Trump during a news conference in New Delhi on Tuesday. The fiery exchange saw Acosta tell Trump that CNN’s “record on...

No Witnesses, No Peace: America Approaches Autocracy in the Arms for Dirt scandal

Nixonian reasons return, amplified by an argument massaged by Alan Dershowitz to legitimate efforts like the Watergate break-in. x “They compounded the dangerous argument they made that no quid pro quo is too much, and they compounded it by saying if what you want is targeting your rival, it's even...

Bipartisanship is not the Panacea You Think

Pat Cipollone, the counsel for the President, cleverly introduced distracting video mocking two Congressional House Managers: Rep. Zoe Lofgren and Rep. Jerrold Nadler. The two specifically spoke against the partisan acts by Republicans in the removal trial following the Impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton in January of 1999. Nadler said...

Trump plays the trade war like it's 1812

Trump is losing his trade war and what’s worse is that he’s clueless about the reason for the losing. The prevailing truth is that stupidity has given way to irrationality. “The truth, however, is that there has seldom been clearer proof that Trump is in fact the world’s worst negotiator....

Turkish atrocities against Kurds begin: casualties reach hundreds, 70,000 displaced so far

The predicted bloodbath unfolds. Wapo does an excellent summary of the current situation. x Turkish state-backed media hails a Ã¢Â€Âœsuccessful operationÃ¢Â€Â to Ã¢Â€ÂœneutralizeÃ¢Â€Â an unarmed 35-year old woman working to unite Arabs, Christians, and Kurds in NE Syria.

Trump's collusion with Turkey is more than a distraction from Ukraine woes

Excellent William Saletan article in Slate reminding us how much Turkey is part of Trump’s corruption going back to Mike Flynn. It’s made worse as Turkey begins its new attacks on the Kurds. It’s hard to keep track of President Donald Trump’s betrayals of his country. First he solicited Vladimir Putin’s...

We need to flip the script on the 'how will you pay for health care?' question

We can’t allow this question to stand anymore. We just can’t. “How will you pay for Medicare for All/universal health care?” It’s fatuous. It’s fake. It’s a donation in-kind to the insurance industry. I don’t have a health care plan — and I’m certainly no expert on the minutiae of...

“He's Deteriorating in Plain Sight”

That is a direct quote from a Republican strategist as reported two hours ago by Business Insider: “He's deteriorating in plain sight,” one Republican strategist who's in frequent contact with the White House told Insider on Friday.

It doesn’t take a psychiatrist to figure out that the president’s behavior is that of a madman.

Apparently, the metric shit-ton of manure Donald Trump spread over the Midwest while running for president has not materially improved the outlook for the region’s farmers.
