As each day passes, Trump adds to an already impressive body of evidence arguing that he should be considered the worst president in U.S. history. But, taking a dispassionate, long view, there are a small number of surprisingly strong contenders for this title. This history call is depressingly closer than it...

The New York Times has a piece out about the U.S. Senate race about how Maine House Speaker Sara Gideon (D. ME) is running a strong campaign to unseat the incumbent U.S. Senator Susan Collins (R. ME): Her challenger is a smooth campaigner, fluent and assured about issues like Medicaid...
This is Sunday and I am not only in the middle of Florida, a pandemic, been home for 6 months, live around nuts but lo and behold, Thursday last was a mess. There was nothing going on that I could do a darn thing about and none of it coming...
