Paul Krugman has a particularly blunt column up this morning: No, Vaccine Mandates Aren’t an Attack on Freedom But the U.S. right is, in effect, trying to keep the pandemic going. We talk a lot about misinformation on social media, some of which — surprise! — appears to be the...

I could spend a lot of time making statistical comparisons about the influx of immigrants at the border starting with the George W. Bush administration through the Trump administration. If that were the real issue, Joe Biden’s current border dilemma numbers would compare favorably. Now that human decency has become solely...
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Ron Wyden’s (D. OR) re-election campaign: The lies and violence of the last few months have made it clear: If we're going to carry forward as a democracy, we need to protect the integrity of every vote. That starts with secure, reliable election processes....
Marjorie Taylor Greene, the one-woman wrecking ball of the GOP (OK, she’s not the only one, but one of her is enough), has managed to wrangle a spot on the Education Committee, even though she has seriously claimed that various school shootings were hoaxes. (Maybe she thinks the students were...
Playing catch up here. Received this e-mail from U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen’s (D. MD) re-election campaign: For far too long the people of the District of Columbia have been denied their right of self-governance and have faced taxation without representation. This injustice must end. Washington, DC should be a...
We have reached peak absurdity, folks. Two days ago we learned that at least 140 GOP House members had signed on to Donald Trump’s lifelong quest to quiet Fred Trump’s stentorian cries of “LOSER,” which have ping-ponged in POTUS’ head like a pair of droopy, zero-gravity Murdoch balls for the past...
Oh, please, yes. Sure. Why not? Donald Trump has reportedly been hinting to insiders that he might resurrect The Apprentice. Like anyone wants to see Sean Spicer and Kevin Sorbo in a blood duel over the marketing contract for TruckNutz. But that’s where we are in this shart-encrusted Underoo of a timeline. The...
We know for sure that Mo Brooks lives in the Phantom Zone, or is it on Bizarro World. The Post is asking every Republican member of Congress the same three questions today. We will report back their answers. The questions are: pic.twitter.com/P1ptrZU4cr — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) December 3, 2020 Rep....

Get ready people because the reality of losing our democracy is real. I said this in 2016 and people scoffed. It is a reality. The sides are lining up. Brother against brother, Mother against child, husband against wife. This may even be worse than 1860 considering the people of that...
Trump’s desperation shows in attempting to try nearly anything, however inept he was in trying to confuse the public about voting by mail. Such wackiness is meant to avoid the oncoming publication of the Michael Cohen book. Similarly, Trump could appear to have won in a landslide with only 15%...
Eternal vigilance ahead for 90 days. Even with the 1968 noise Trump wants 2016 back because it may be the only real victory he’ll have. Rovian math 2012 comes back sprouting turd-blossoms. Remember how Karl Rove “openly acknowledged that the function of his propaganda was to create a mythology and...

Live Blog below. This time it’s from the Rose Garden. Likely it’ll start at 545 or 6pm ET. We are near the end of the touted Trump 15-day period. More likely Trump will lie and make things up, but in each of these events, Trump has produced more opposition media content,...
This is a little like Exxon saying it’s scrubbed crude oil off far more ducks than all the wind turbine manufacturers in the world combined. x Just reported that the United States has done far more âÂÂtestingâ than any other nation, by far! In fact, over an eight day span, the...
Though I have never observed a critical care unit before, I have spent time in nursing homes visiting with family members. So I am well aware of the inconsolable sadness this experience can bring. The video below shows what caring for those severely ill with the coronavirus is like at...
Fascinating short piece in Washington Monthly about the disinformation that the GOP will try to wage against Biden’s health even as GuapoTrumpHaus(Blanco) IMPOTUS* seems to be the real cognitive invalid. During a town hall on Fox News Thursday night, Trump once again alluded to the idea that Biden is unfit for office. While...
I received a meme in my Facebook feed recently about the record high stock market as it relates to what real people are going through. I addressed it on my Politics Done Right on KPFT 90.1 FM Houston show with input from our millennial engineer Lupita. Watch this snippet with her input which gives...
President Obama recently in a room of wealthy Liberal donors called out Progressives for wanting transformational change. He implied it was unrealistic. Thus far, Obama had stayed out of the Democratic Primary Process. He should consider continuing said refrain as coming out as an anti-progressive will activate many progressives, who...
Republicans proudly advertised their radical ways during Wednesday's impeachment hearings into Donald Trump, wallowing in conspiracies and embracing debunked claims. The question now: How does the Beltway media cover a party that has aggressively removed itself from reality? How does the news business describe and treat a political party that routinely...
