Radicals or Game Changers?

Donald Trump

The country needs to take a second look at the meaning of radical and change. Since January of 2019, the Republican party has drawn from their quiver, poisoned conservative-tipped arrows, sharpened and aimed directly at the liberal heart of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. As has been consistent with the Republican party for...

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...

“Everybody knows who he is, but they don't know what to do with him” Ole Miss fires a professor

As with most faculty politics, there is a subtext to the story of a professor fired for specious reasons. Garrett Felber was fired for failing to “communicate face-to-face” with his department chair at University of MIssissippi, even as he was outspoken about a variety of university actions after the selection of...

Did Trump actually call the two Wayne County canvassers to try to reverse their reversal.  Autogolpe Trump's widespread effort to delay or undermine certification includes no-take-backsies.  Now Rudy saying lots of people from Camden came to Philly to vote. “It happens all the time.

Horseshoe ideology riots: RCP endorses Biden, a jealous QAnon claims Trump as its own

A woman of color wearing a T-shirt with an upside-down American flag says "Oppression is bad." A grinning white guy with a fedora and a T-shirt that says "TOP KEK" says "Oppression of most people is actually good." A bow-tied professor exclaims, "It's like I'm seeing double!"

 If as the Trump campaign says, “Joe Biden is an empty vessel for the radical left,” Trump’s septic tank overflows for the radical right. Needless to say, RWNJ’s will claim that Joe Biden is as much a tool for something something left-wing as Trump isn’t a dupe for all kinds...

Another Crack in the Wall: Marc Thiessen Calls Out Trump

I despise Marc Thiessen. He is an inept, supercilious, illogical Trump defender-at-all-costs who gets to write op-ed’s for the Washington Post twice a week, probably so they can claim “balance.”  As a representative of the Trumpists, he is doing them no favors with his easily disassembled distortions. But when I...

Alice Rivlin's defense of “centrists” is a case study of myopia and denialism.

I bear no particular grudge against Alice M. Rivlin.  She appears to have led a fine life of public service, and, as discussed below, considers herself a “moderate Democrat.”  She is the type of moderate Democrat who was a member of the Simpson-Bowles deficit commission – and so I disagree...
