Over the Top

Trump has been president for a bit over a year.  We are a few days into 2018.  The tipping point for me, as far as publicly voicing my opinions, was when Trump’s lawyers sent a cease and desist letter to Michael Wolff, his publisher, and his old buddy Steve Bannon.  At one point Trump Sr.

Civil War Anyone?

Rather than restating what you all have heard on the news, I will give you the Cliff Notes. Bill Taylor testified on October 22nd, 2019 to the impeachment inquiry committee. He directly tied Mike Pompeo, the Secretary of State and through him William Barr, the Attorney General to this criminal endeavor led by the President,

No Consequences

It has become brutally apparent that neither the G.O.P. House or Senate will take action against Trump. They have abandoned their constitutional duty to be a check and balance on the other two branches of our democracy. Their control of Congress and the Senate means there are going to be NO CONSEQUENCES for Trump, regardless

First Amendment Falls

Less than an hour ago it was announced that Trump has stripped former C.I.A. Director John Brennan of his security clearance.  When President Trump debased himself at the Helsinki summit.  Mr. Brennan was one of the first and most adamant critics of the President.  Going as far as to say that his behavior rose to

Devin Sure Ain’t From Heaven

 Ever since Devin did his midnight ride of March 21st, 2017 to the White House to share classified material.  President Trump and some of his cronies were there late.  Not that the classified material was above the President’s clearance, but Nunes thought that it might be something useful to Donald about his unsubstantiated claim he was

The Helsinki Fiasco

Calling the performance of Donald J. Trump on the world stage at the combined Helsinki press conference with Putin a fiasco is being more than kind. I was watching it in real time. I was so floored, shocked, utterly appalled, ashamed, and any other negative adjective you can think of at that moment. It was

Twitter’s Unlevel Playing Field

If you follow politics, you must surely know of Alex Jones and his Infowars platform.  He brought to the forefront Twitter’s refusal to enforce their own rules.  I once had a boss who was convinced that almost every far-fetched conspiracy theory was real.  Everything from the moon landing being faked to 9/11 being carried out

A Sliver of Responsible Action

    On July 10th, 2018 the Senate voted 96 to 2 in favor of re-affirming the United States commitment to NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization).  This is following meetings of Trump with our NATO allies, where he berates them time and again.  He claims that the Germans are under Russian control because they buy

Ding Dong the Witch is Dead

Finally, we are rid of Scott Pruitt.  Supposedly he resigned, but the world learned of it from a tweet by President Trump. In one of my other blog post, I talked about how Scott Pruitt is a Trump wannabe or even Trump’s mini-me.  I won’t duplicate the content of that, but I will reiterate that

Finally universal outrage, almost.

This abomination of what America stands for has been going on for several weeks now.   Sixteen days ago on June 20th, 2018 tRump signed the executive order to stop the separation of children from their parents.  Problems are that it is only temporary and it doesn’t do anything for the 3000+ children that were already

Scott Pruitt, how do you do it?

Leading the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is Scott Pruitt.  One of Trump’s close millionaire buddies.  He has filed numerous suits to weaken EPA.  At his Senate confirmation hearing, he stated that “the link between global warming and human activity is unclear.”  He consistently flies first class or by private charter jets.  He ordered two desks
