The House Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection incited by Donald Trump has released its final report after months of hearings with hundreds of witnesses and millions of documents. It is an exhaustively detailed and well documented examination of the events leading up to the storming of the Capitol...
Unethical
Yesterday, the House Ways and Means Committee’s ranking member tried to pull off a well-worn Republican tactic to hide malfeasance and misdeeds. Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) wrapped himself in the skirts of MAGA America, defending the former President of the United States. Brady asserted that all Americans should be on...
Ethics violations—involving the illegal acceptance of Saudi Arabian gifts ostensibly made from endangered species but later revealed to be cheap fakes—seem like the Trumpiest story ever. All that’s missing is a bone saw, a koi pond’s worth of meat sweats, and a Fiat-sized heap of pulverized Adderall. While norm-breaking and questionable ethical decisions were basically the...
Sixteen hours had been alloted to each side, The disgusting so called jurors and republican house of shame legislators went in to talk to the defense team. This is totally unethical and they should be cencured. I do think I figured out why they skipped down the hall like little...
I like this: Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan (D-13) is urging President Joe Biden to fire the entire United States Postal Service Board of Governors and nominate new leadership amid recent mail delays. In his letter to the president, Ryan explained how operational changes imposed by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy continue...
Not really a heist film, but a brief amusement worth another cinematic treatment of financial markets like Trading Places. If not, here’s a quick recap: a bunch of traders — many amateurs — got together on the online discussion forum Reddit and decided they were going to pump up GameStop’s...
The urban-suburban-exurban voting shows the shift in the south like elsewhere for a cosmopolitan American electorate. Stacey Abrams may have saved America. x I have been kindly asked to clarify that this is my view and not my employer's — G.

You’ve probably heard that the Regeneron antibody treatment Donald Trump received and subsequently touted as a “cure” for COVID was tested on cells that originally came from an abortion. I’m sure this isn’t the first time an abortion has saved Donald Trump’s ass (just guessing here), but in this case, he’s the...
Did Trump truly believe that he could avoid catching the virus, as so much contact tracing must be done for the several days of exposure to a symptomatic Hope HIcks. “This is deadly stuff, the plague, so easily transmissible..” Aside from Karmic justice, Trump’s inner circle has spread COVID-19. He will...

From Salon: The American Democracy Legal Fund (ADLF) sent a letter Wednesday to the U.S. Senate Ethics Committee asking to open an investigation into allegations that Sen. Susan Collins of Maine — a Republican who faces a tight re-election battle this fall — used her office to financially benefit her...
Yesterday, Miles Taylor, who worked in Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security for two years, including as its chief of staff, wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post detailing the ocher abomination’s horrifying management style, which included turning “DHS, the nation’s largest law enforcement agency, into a tool used for...
The primary IS the election in Legislative District 14 in Jacksonville, Florida. Kim Daniels is the Trump-supporting, right-wing, DEMOCRATIC incumbent in this dark blue district. (You read that right.) She is also one of the worst people in the world. The GOP loves her and funds her. I have written about her...

More disgusting corruption, a la Donald Trump’s attempt to host the G-7 summit at his golf resort/bedbug hatchery in Florida. According to The New York Times, in 2018, Trump asked the U.S. ambassador to Britain, Robert Wood Johnson IV, to try to convince the British government to “steer” the British...
Only in Florida. Meet your Florida Democratic rep: Kim Daniels. She is the incumbent state representative for one of the bluest districts in all of Florida, Legislative District 14 in Jacksonville. As usual, the Florida GOP isn’t even bothering running a candidate. This is for two reasons: State Rep Kim...
Received this e-mail today from former Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich, on behalf of Democracy for America: Robert Reich A little over a month ago, I emailed you about Senator Richard Burr, who sold off millions of dollars in stocks after gaining insider information about the impending pandemic and coming...
To be clear, I do not condone this. Not at all. And, unlike Trump, if someone came to me with this kind of information, I’d contact the FBI immediately — not say, “I love it, especially later in the summer.” Because, you know, I’m a real American with real American values,...
From the New York Times: When Kelly Loeffler accepted an appointment to be a United States senator from Georgia, she left behind a high-paying job as a senior executive at the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange. But on her way to Washington, her old employer gave her...
The Louisville Courier-Journal editorial board called it a “procoronavirus” protest rally that occured yesterday in Frankfort. Joseph Gerth just called them “idiots.” I think both are correct, and it was an “idiotic procoronavirus” rally. Approximately 100 of the worst in humanity showed up to chant and try to disrupt Kentucky...

In a recent video clip, Bloomberg is heard making a racist justification for stop & frisk. This newer video could be more devastating.

http://www.people-press.org/… http://www.cnn.com/… Pew Research is the second poll this week showing that 51% of Americans want Donald Trump convicted and removed from office.

If they’re innocent why are they not cooperating. Let's be clear: The President of the U.S. Senate – still a Congressional body – is rejecting a Congressional request for information. Pence is irredeemably conflicted. He either should resign as Senate President or follow the rules.https://t.co/wdywUvbTlA — Joel Rubin (@JoelMartinRubin) October...
Trump will make the nation go blue, if only because of his shtick, doing his insult-comic bit at the campaign rallies. The problem is that he truly believes that these rallies constitute his presidency, entertaining a cult following. Because he’s a star, the WH gig is a cover of some Sasha...
Pathetic: With just three days remaining before the Saturday election for the governorship of Louisiana, Republican candidate and House representative Ralph Abraham is pulling out the symbolic, Trump-friendly gestures in order to rally the base to vote out Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards. On Tuesday, the congressman for northeastern Louisiana’s...
How superficial has America become? Am I to believe, that because Robert Mueller did not bare his back like Denzel Washington in the hit film ‘Glory’ or yell out of the window reminiscent of Howard Beale in the movie ‘Network’ his testimony is now to be treated like chum thrown...
Few “Democratic” House members disappoint me more than Georgia Congressman David Scott. Compromising on certain positions is one thing if you are in a solidly red district, but he represents the majority-minority 13th District, which includes portions of Cobb, Douglas, Fulton, Fayette, Clayton and Henry counties. This is about as...

The fix is in, folks. We have a rigged system, believe me. Business Insider: Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Tuesday that Attorney General William Barr told him he would send the special counsel Robert Mueller’s final report on the Russia investigation to the White House before the public...
OK, I’ll deal with this right at the top, because I know how y’all absolutely dote on every golden drop that falls from my fingers to the keyboard. Judge Ellis is a wealthy, privileged, arrogant, half senile dick. Which gives him something in common with Paul Manafort. From pre-trial motions...
I have a humble request for all of the non-FAUX News media outlets out there. Pretty please, with sprinkles on top, do you think you can pull your collective heads out of Michael Cohen’s ass long enough to take a good look around? There is some serious shit going on...
I have always enjoyed Michael Isikoff’s work as an investigative journalist. Not only does he uncover some really cool, nasty shit, but like his co-author David Corn, he has a natural talent for taking what could be complex and confusing political issues, and simplifying them so that people without a...

You know, Der Gropinfuror really should stop calling it a “witch hunt.” At last check, small as it is, Trump still had a teenie-weenie, so he really should be referring to Mueller’s investigation as a “warlock hunt.” There’s no doubt about it, Robert Mueller is the #12 reason for soaked...

Jeff Flake (JF): This party is getting out of hand. Lindsey Graham (LG): Oh it gets that way sometimes Jeff. You know that. Those unethical democrats get overwrought and all this happens. JF: I want to go home. Chuck Grassley (CG): Don’t go home Jeff. Stay and party with us....
It was very notable, and damaging to J. Kavanaugh, when I heard that the only third-party, the only witness (even participant), in the “Kavanaugh Incident” was refusing to testify before the Senate. Wow . . . no denial under oath? But, of course, his non-appearance would not play out that way,...

Suppose you were a movie reviewer who’d signed a nondisclosure agreement that bars you from criticizing anything Michael Bay produces. Wouldn’t you think it appropriate to mention that you’re legally bound to give him a pass by, say, the eighth graph of your seventh Tranformers review? Maybe just say, “Hey,...
OK, game over. I give up. I spent years making a living as a comic, ridiculing reality, but come on, reality can't be this stupid. The only thing left for me to do now is to give up all of my earthly possessions, and make a pilgrimage to a Trappist...
