Giuliani Confesses to Not Knowing All The Lies to Tell – Video
Wanna work for Donald Trump? Then you must know how to lie… or as Rudy Giuliani puts it, you must “learn all the facts.” But how can you learn facts when Donald Trump and his administration is built on lies and corruption? And I’m not just saying that because of my inability to see anything favorable… Continue reading Giuliani Confesses to Not Knowing All The Lies to Tell – Video
Common Among Celebrities and People of Wealth
Any populist claims made by Donald Trump are heretofore considered fraudulent. This man is no populist. He’s barely popular and his policies will not help his constituents as much as they think. The economic numbers that came out Friday were encouraging and at this point it’s Trump’s economy. Unemployment is down for almost every demographic group… Continue reading Common Among Celebrities and People of Wealth
Conway and Sanders Hammered at White House Correspondents Dinner – Video
Never heard of her before. But after last night’s White House Correspondents dinner, the name Michelle Wolf will most likely be remembered for the way she went after Donald Trump – Wolf called him the “only pussy you are not allowed to grab” and two senior members of his administration – Kellyanne Conway and Sarah… Continue reading Conway and Sanders Hammered at White House Correspondents Dinner – Video
Beware of Smiling Dictators
It’s on. The Kim Jong-un Redemption Tour is officially under way and like any other one-party, all-powerful, illiberal, murderous dictator, he is smiling all the way. Hello. I had my uncle shot. (Smile) Hello. I had my half-brother killed in one of the most unique, sinister plots I could think of. (Smile) Hello. I’m going… Continue reading Beware of Smiling Dictators
The Second Time As Farce
Can someone please tell me what’s the plan for this country? Yes, I understand that giving it over to corporate interests by cutting taxes, repealing legislation that keeps the air and water clean, and allowing certain industries to both police and investigate themselves, is just what Republicans do when they gain power, but where are… Continue reading The Second Time As Farce
Jeffrey Toobin – Donald Trump is Firing People for Doing Their Job – Video
I have not written much about this presidency because the thought of Donald Trump in the Oval Office still makes me shake my head in disbelief. But I do keep up with the sickening news coming from the Trump White House and I remain baffled that there are Americans who still support this gradual push… Continue reading Jeffrey Toobin – Donald Trump is Firing People for Doing Their Job – Video
The Fierce Resistance: Public Workers Have Had Enough
I’m sure you remember this old saw: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. I’m sure that there are some reaction deniers out there, but for the most part this is settled science. And that’s exactly why those who see the end of public unions, or indeed unions in general, in their… Continue reading The Fierce Resistance: Public Workers Have Had Enough
The Strangers In Your Midst and the Fools Who Fear Them
An interesting year, no? The calendar has created a confluence of Passover, Easter and April Fool’s Day, which pretty much covers everyone who lives…everywhere. Which is humbling because this weekend should remind us that we are only as big and smart and compassionate and humane as the weakest among us. The ones with the smallest… Continue reading The Strangers In Your Midst and the Fools Who Fear Them
After the Nor’easters:Trump Caves on the Budget While the Real Storm(y) is on the Horizon
For all the talk about President Trump almost vetoing the Congressional spending bill, what’s lost is that his presidency will likely turn out to be a textbook case of an outsider with no natural political constituency unable to reorder the bureaucracy or scare enough legislators to bend to his will. After all, here is a… Continue reading After the Nor’easters:Trump Caves on the Budget While the Real Storm(y) is on the Horizon
Unarmed Black Man Shot And Killed By Sacramento Police in His Backyard
Here’s something I’m sure you’ve heard before. It’s a statement from Sacramento police after the shot and killed a 22-year-old unarmed black man while he was standing in his backyard. “The officers believed the suspect was pointing a firearm at them.

Wasn’t Trump Supposed to be Good at Something?
I would think that the president might be more inclined to support some gun control measures, seeing as how he loves to shoot himself in the foot. How does President Trump think that firing Andrew McCabe or Rod Rosenstein or James Comey or Rex Tillerson is going to make anybody forget the main issues in… Continue reading Wasn’t Trump Supposed to be Good at Something?
