Ok, I admit it, I’m almost enjoying watching the news from John McCain’s funeral. This is a double whammy for Trump, who absolutely needs to be the focus of attention. And on top of that, everyone involved in the funeral, including the speakers, the family, and even the deceased, are making sure that Trump knows […]
The Wall Street Journal reports that sales of AR-15 assault rifles and other “long guns” have cratered. Revenues are down 50% since Trump got elected, most likely because gun lovers believe their second amendment rights are safe now that Trump is in office. What’s a gun manufacturer to do? Maybe they should work to get […]
I love listening to Joe Biden speak. Do me a favor and watch this. Don’t read about it. Don’t watch a short highlights video. And please, let’s try to leave politics out of it. No discussions about campaigns, or parties, or any current political analysis. I hope that America still has the ability to just […]
This powerful article, written by Katherine Fugate, speaks the truth about how we all have the ability to fight racism and xenophobia. If you are concerned about the current level of racism in this country, I recommend you read it. And I’ll throw in a comic about racism just for fun: © Brian McFadden
I know it has been a while, but I just wanted to give a heads up that I might resume posting a bit before the midterm elections. As I’ve said before, I’m not really upset at Donald Trump. I mean, he is who he is and he doesn’t even hide the fact that he is […]
[from Margaret and Helen] Margaret, last week six football players knelt during the national anthem. This week it was 200. And just like Colin Kaepernick, they weren’t making a statement about the flag. I swear this president is so stupid, he couldn’t find his ass if both hands were in his back pockets. Lord help […]
© Ruben Bolling Leave it to America. In the wake of the Las Vegas massacre, when the news came out that the shooter had used “bump-stock” devices to turn semi-automatic rifles into effectively automatic weapons (like assault weapons), how did America respond? By buying more bump-stocks. Sales of these devices has spiked, and in some […]
© Ruben Bolling Batten down the hatches! Run for cover! The denialists won’t be denied! Raining and flooding will just cause them to flood the airwaves. Not to mention sticking their heads in the ground, which will probably be full of water. Will they drown in their own pronouncements? Or will they weather the storm?
Never heard of Sinclair Broadcast Group? Well you should know them, because they very well could be filling your head with far-right-wing propaganda. And if Donald Trump has his way, it will get far worse. Believe me.
Donald Trump has broken a presidential record. He has now achieved the lowest approval rating in his first year in office of any president, ever, and he even has five months left in his first year! The first year is supposed to be the honeymoon, so Trump can expect to go downhill from here. So […]
This has to be the flip-flop of the year. Is Donald Trump really going to hold the federal budget hostage just because he is a terrible negotiator?
Last week, the Presidential Committee on the Arts and the Humanities disbanded themselves in protest of Donald Trump, but they did something interesting in their letter of resignation. The first letter of each paragraph spelled out R-E-S-I-S-T. Not to be outdone, this week the State Department science envoy resigned, and the first letters of his […]
The New York Times has an excellent article on how to deal with white supremacists, racists, and Nazis. They call it “humorous subversion” but it really is just making fun of them. Here’s one example: For decades, Wunsiedel, a German town near the Czech border, has struggled with a parade of unwanted visitors. It was […]
