Sometimes, it is nothing but a projection when one accuses another of ill-doing. It turns out voter fraud has been a Republican thing. Projection anyone? x x YouTube Video Watch Politics Done Right T.V. here. This story, along with many others, just so the lengths Republican politicians and operatives would...
In testimony before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, former acting defense secretary Christopher Miller and former acting attorney general Jeffrey Rosen, sought to defend their response to the deadly insurrection. This did not address the obvious positioning of them and others by previous guy to overturn election results....
Previous guy always expects the loyalty of mob silence Omertà, even when he throws everyone under the bus, it’s part of his personality disorder. The real goal for his relative silence might be the return to social media when Facebook reconsiders their suspension. He has a Parler account but doesn’t use...
This Matt Gaetz scandal is probably a good thing for our country. If his head got any bigger, it might rip a hole in space-time. As it is, things appear to be getting worse and worse for the flesh-toned Tootsie Pop. He should probably be scrubbing his Twitter account in...
California Rep. Devin Nunes is famously suing the Twitter parody account @DevinNunesMom, but in real life, his mom does his fundraising committees’ FEC reports. It’s not that weird, of course. I mean, I don’t get it personally, but that could be because my mom’s voted for every GOP presidential candidate since...
It always seemed absurd to me that hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens have no effective representation in Congress. And I’m not just talking about Alabamans. But to hear some conservatives tell it, that’s as it should be because, you know, D.C. doesn’t have a car dealership. And they already make their...
Trump still pimps the Big Lie, because only Mr. Bigly Orange could be hiding in a hitherto-unaccounted-for room in the White House. After all, isn’t Trump a National Treasure, and might he really be somewhere still in the White House, pursuing that Matrix-greenscreen version of Biden. Because Neo-liberalism is about...
Because armed struggle in the actual 1776 to cancel a monarchy wasn’t enough for one right-wing think tank, the Heritage Foundation’s usual reactionary silliness now extends to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, apparently because of Biblical miscegeny. x Heritage Foundation mocked for defending British monarchy from American 'radical left”...
If you’re like me, you were continually frustrated by Donald Trump’s baffling ability to avoid real consequences for his serial perfidy over the past four (erm, 74) years, and you responded to this outrage by curling up into the fetal position, crawling into a giant bag of Kirkland Signature Rice...
Not sure where they took him for ice cream after his (alleged) murder spree, but they sure do seem understanding. I’m all for getting at the root causes of crime, but why do we get the kid gloves out only for white suspects, such as alleged shooter Robert Aaron Long,...
It’s fitting that this year’s CPAC conference is being held in Orlando, a land of make-believe where thousands of folks travel each year to gawk at a surly, splotchy whale flailing around with no real purpose other than to wow a small cross-section of Americans who’ve grown bored with taunting the three-legged goat at their local petting...
Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert needs more attention. First, Marjorie Taylor Greene stole her thunder by trotting out the Jewish space lasers while Boebert was still plunging her hands into the soft, wet clay of garden-variety QAnon conspiracies. Then Ted Cruz decided to overshadow them both with the single worst travel decision...
Yeah, I remember feeling this way after Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. No fucking way can they make another Friday the 13th movie. I mean, that’s ridiculous, right? Twenty years later, after three more sequels and a reboot, I looked like a damn fool. Not as foolish...
During the 2012 election cycle I had a lot of fun with Mitt Romney before he eventually lost his presidential bid, strapped his dog to the roof of his car, and rode off into the sunset. I never hated Mitt. He just seemed kind of feckless, what with his binders full...
Okay, so he was a little more animated this time, but this was another tragically embarrassing ramp-walk by the guy who claims to be the best at everything. x At the #ArmyNavyGame, President Trump tried to run down a short ramp.

Perhaps it’s the pandemic or Thanksgiving but this type of tweet has now become Twitter’s new version of the Dad joke. It’s not yet a genre and doesn’t yet have a #hashtag. It’s also hard to tell what a good one is, other than relatively topical or unclear about its logic so far....

Usually when Ted Cruz “guarantees” something, it’s more along the lines of “I guarantee you no one can hear you scream from the basement of this abandoned warehouse in Arkansas.” Or so I assume. I have no direct knowledge of this, but then Ted had no basis for this statement, either:...

Although frequently posed as one question — “should we eliminate the Electoral College?” — there really are two separate questions: should we (i) abolish the Electoral College, but keep the formulation where each state’s weight is based on the combined total of its US Senators and Representatives, or (ii) move entirely to a national popular vote? I...

his op ed in Washington Post titled Trump’s name should live in infamy. It is delicious. Let me end at the beginning, with the closing paragraph: Trump’s sanction must come at the polls, and beyond. For the sake of our constitutional republic, he must lose, and lose badly. Yet that...

Trump wanting to be so mask free and wanting his own way, Florida is going to be a nightmare I predict come August. Ron Desantis is so naive that he thinks the Republican Convention will bring prosperty and money into Florida’s economy at the risk of killing the state. I...
Personally, I’d rather spend an Arizona summer canvassing for Joe Biden in a wetsuit made of beached squids and mayonnaise than work a single day for Donald Trump. For one thing — and, believe me, this would be the least objectionable part — you have exactly zero job security with...
Talking Points Memo reports an interview Bunker Boy gave to the Wall Street Journal (behind a paywall) in which The Great Orange Shitgibbon said — really! — that some Americans may be wearing masks to signal disapproval of him — not as a preventative measure. I think the Lincoln Project...
The redoubtable Gabriel Sherman has another dispatch from the Phantasmagorical Land of Cray-Cray. It seems Fox News is not nearly obsequious enough for Donald John Trump, so he’s itching to cut them off at the very knees they’ve been shamelessly bending for the past five years. Vanity Fair: Trump’s view...
The governor of Mississippi appeared on MSNBC to discuss opening up more industries in his state. Portions of his state are very dependent on the gaming industry.

While everyone is running around screaming that Trump’s acting unconstitutionally (which is is), they shouldn’t worry too much that Trump is effectively calling himself a dictator. He doesn’t really want to be a dictator; he just wants to play one on TV. Greg Sargent puts it this in his column...
A few mornings ago my wife was concerned that even as I expressed my likelihood of voting for Biden if he wins the primary in the November election, that my tone may lead some listeners not to do so as well. Here is my answer to her. Please listen in...
Received this e-mail from U.S. Senator Jon Tester (D. MT): We're asking you to chip in just $4 today. Here’s why: Four new polls show Democrats surging into the lead in four battleground states — Maine, Arizona, Colorado, and North Carolina — the four seats we need to flip the...

I’ve always thought of myself as a good person. And for the most part, I suppose, I am. I’ve done some bad things, of course.

All Washington is astonished that Trump, about to be impeached for putting the arm on Ukraine, sent his personal shyster back to Kyiv to do it some more. But remember that Trump thinks there’s nothing wrong with doing that, because he just knows Joe Biden was corruptly interfering in Ukraine’s...
In June of 2008, Barack Obama used a rhetorical flourish that belies his character; “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” said the future President.
