Donald Trump (or should we say President Stephen Miller) desperately, desperately, desperately wants you to focus on the fact that he’s sending troops into major American cities. It’s why he’s doing it. No matter how it ends up playing out, it serves as a high profile distraction from every other aspect of this regime. Given…

The evil that is the Trump administration is best described by two words: Todd Blanche. Blanche does not give a rat’s ass about anyone in this country. His appointment was made to coddle Donald Trump and make him happy. Blanche’s involvement in the Ras Baraka arrest has recently been exposed. As Nicolle Wallace said, Trump’s…

When someone does something illogical, particularly when that person is a politician, one must stop and look for an explanation. Yeah, sure, I'll look at it. Ghislaine Maxwell is the...

Donald Trump desperately wishes he could be Vladimir Putin, but Trump is too weak (and now too senile) to pull off the strongman routine. Meanwhile Putin keeps getting more brazen. A long string of prominent Russian political figures have mysteriously turned up dead, including several who have “fallen” out of windows. Now it’s happened again.…

The Democratic Party doesn’t currently have control of any branch of the federal government, but the Democrats in the Senate still periodically get a chance to grill Donald Trump’s unqualified appointees. That happened today when Trump Attorney General Pam Bondi was forced to take questions from Senator Adam Schiff. Schiff didn’t hesitate to grill Bondi…

History has shown that once a president’s popularity begins to slip significantly, it is almost never regained during their term of office. They may enjoy a kind of Renaissance after they leave office, as with President Harry Truman, but unpopular presidents tend to remain unpopular. Of course, with every rule there’s an exception. George HW…

Donald Trump has symptoms consistent with end stage dementia. That’s just the obvious truth. Even after a weekend in which he appeared to claim that 9/11 happened a year ago and that he warned Pete Hegseth about it in advance, the media still doesn’t want to acknowledge what’s happening. But even as the media continues…

These days the bad news outweighs the good. But there was some good news last week. First, the “commander in chief” and his Ken Doll Barbie “Secretary of War” made fools of themselves forcing 800 military leaders to attend in person an unhinged Trump rally speech at Quantico. None of the military leaders applauded and…

Our little republican birds have flown the coop. As this country teeters on the brink of complete madness, as millions are furloughed, as the government shutdown blossoms, springing to life like a poisonous plant, Republicans have made the decision to just go home. It’s true! Like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, they have not…

Trump has issued a warning to Democrats. Soon, he says, he will decide which “Democrat agencies” to cut, and whether those cuts will be temporary or permanent. The ongoing government shutdown, he claimed, had given him an “unprecedented opportunity.” On Thursday morning, Trump announced on “Truth” Social that he would meet with Russ Vought, “he…

We haven’t seen the last of the Epstein survivors. Mark off October 8 on your calendar. On that date, these brave women will make a return to Capitol Hill. They will stand aligned with righteousness. They will demand a release of the Trump files. On this day — October 8th, Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna and…

It can be tricky to diagnose dementia when it’s mild, because everyone occasionally forgets names and such as they get older. But what about when it’s not mild? What about when it’s so glaringly obvious and over the top that if a mafia boss on trial were behaving that way, you’d assume he was faking…

Many years ago, in the United States of America, there lived an unfortunate young man. He was married and had three children. Even though he eventually died at the relatively young age of 64, his wife and all three of his children preceded him in death. The young man’s life was so fraught with tragedy…

It’s often been asked what the United States would look like by now if the Confederacy had won the Civil War, and had become its own independent nation. There have been numerous theories presented, ranging from the Confederacy collapsing after a few years and rejoining the United States, to the North American continent falling back…

Pop went the weasel, that is Donald Trump’s brain. And now his behavior is being described as showing “signs of psychosis.” Just what the world needs – a psychotic president! And yet that is what we have. I know I said I’d not refer to him as president again, but this is “special circumstances” because…

Poor demented, delusional Donald Trump. He recently lashed out at his favorite television network, Fox, about poll numbers regarding the economy. Fox’s poll revealed that 52% of respondents believe the economy is worse under Trump. While this number isn’t as bad as it could be, consider who likely participated in a poll from Fox. Anchor…

I often have this fantasy that I look all the swing voters in their eyes — all of the ones who didn’t come out to vote or who came out and voted for evil, thinking egg prices might just be a wee bit lower. So yes, I look deep into their eyes — because of…

As of now the entire federal government has been shut down just so Donald Trump can keep the Trump-Epstein files from being released, even as Trump has ICE thugs roaming the streets and zip tying kids for the sin of not being white. And Trump is spending his time posting fake videos of himself playing…

The government has gone dark and the country is left to decide whose fault it is. It looks like the decision has been made. Four national polls taken just before and during the shutdown point to an uncomfortable fact for the White House that more Americans blame Trump and his fellow Republicans than anyone else.…

Lucretia Mott. Harriet Tubman. Mary Todd Lincoln. Florence Nightingale. These are some of the wonderful women whom I read about in childhood. Michelle Obama. Hillary Clinton. Kamala Harris. Dr. Jill Biden. These are some of the women students of history who will be read about in the future. Women are strong. Women are righteous. Women…

No one plays the blame game better than Republicans. They are the masters of saying things about Democrats that are truer for Republicans. As the shutdown loomed, the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer quoted John Thune: “It’s getting to the point now where their base has got so much influence in the party, and they’re so demanding on…

Donald Trump’s physical and cognitive health are continuing to collapse right in front of our eyes, to the point that he now comes off as 90% dead and 95% braindead. Trump seems to know something is terribly wrong with him, as he’s been talking publicly about how he’s afraid he won’t get into heaven, and…

Thank you for allowing me to rest up yesterday in order to get over what turned out to be just a brief illness. That’s the good news. The bad news is that, after twenty-four hours away, things have gotten even uglier in just about every other way you can come up with. Trump’s government shutdown…
