Giving Joe’s Peace a Chance
Russia’s fascist, authoritarian leader Vladimir Putin, accusing the Ukraine president of being a Nazi is unbelievable. Despite Putin’s Hitler-like statement, “I am convinced that this natural and necessary self-cleansing [of society] will only strengthen our […]

Hannity offers some strategic advice for NATO in Ukraine and it might be worse than you'd expect
Generalissimo Sean Hannity, the high commander for war strategy at Fox News, has an idea that will end the war! Erm, sorry—I meant “world.” Those two words sound so similar. Anyone with any sense of […]

Former Trump aide: 'He would roll his eyes at the rules, so we did, too'
Joe Biden could fire up a blunt on the White House lawn while barbecuing a passel of pandas and the nation’s last remaining supply of freeze-dried Roswell aliens, and he’d still have some catching up […]
Time to Stop Coddling the Children Of America?
As the grandfather of 12 grandchildren, I worry about their safety, health, and lives in this time of excessive gun violence, denial of history, and the life-destroying spread of the virus. Despite their vulnerability, the […]

Truthful Race Theory
For the past few weeks, I have heard from friends, colleagues, and enemies who say, ‘I never heard of ‘ Black Wall Street.’ Statements like that are why America needs Critical Race Theory in its’ […]

The More the World Changes the More the GOP Stays the Same
The predictability of the Republican party is as thinly veiled as the Trump presidency, made of tissue paper, and lies. The tissue, because the former President was full of it and flush with lies. At […]

McConnell now opposes the January 6 commission after Trump demanded he oppose it
Bait and switch: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) publicly announced his opposition Wednesday to a 9/11-style commission. Pretty much where we were when previous guy got impeached a second time. Why it matters: The House […]

No disabusing us that “Republicans won't seize an election” is Neville Chamberlain stuff
Who could believe that Republicans would actually use a provable voter fraud fallacy to distract from institutional interventions that suppress votes. Why would they divert attention to voter suppression efforts and conspiracy theories as absurd […]

With his “patio rant”, previous guy's Big Lie is the ultimate deep fake
Like any good con artist Trump now tries to call his losing a “big lie”, because he’s all about the disinformation as he does his lounge act in Florida and now New Jersey. Trump or his […]

Lazy Days
A little over a year ago, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham postured that helping out hungry Americans would make them lazy. “Very few people would choose work over unemployment benefits that provided moderately more money,” said […]

Kayleigh McEnany doesn't like presidents who inflame tensions, scolds Biden for his Chauvin comments
Irony died years ago, but former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany has decided to exhume its corpse and drag it through town behind a team of bath salts-besotted Clydesdales. Speaking on—I don’t know, some […]

No library for the previous guy because the Big Lie and his non-profit grifting puts it on hold
A physical Trump library may never come to pass except as some money-laundering real estate scheme. The tweets don’t take up space, and planning for a library would suggest “Trump’s done being president” and that’s […]

Minerva @ Midnight: April Fools – Baylor U. conservatives think slavery was good
Change as a rising tide seems to be falling short as history’s stream is not as mighty. Apparently slavery is still “ordained by God for ultimate good” at Baylor University, as a RW campus group wants […]

The previous guy still lost, because he still needs that “hoax” to keep the grift going
WaPo’s Greg Miller’s “main takeaway from ODNI report is that America’s enemies learned more from Russia-2016 about how to muck around in U.S. elections than the U.S. learned/did about how to stop it.” It didn’t […]

Alabama GOP declares Trump 'one of the greatest presidents' ever
Q: What’s the difference between the Branch Davidians and the Trump Death Cult? A: The Branch Davidians thought their leader was Jesus, whereas the Trumpies think their guy is way the fuck better than Jesus. […]

Jen Psaki takes on GOP's pearl-clutching over deficits, reminds them their concern is years late
After Sean Spicer, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Stephanie Grisham, and Kayleigh McEnany, anyone or anything would have been an upgrade as press secretary. A wheel of Gorgonzola with a Furby chip jammed into it would have been […]
