Good morning, kids. Thursday and I’m not going to lie to you. Things are getting bleaker by the day, and we’re only eight days into what is for all intents and purposes an illegal, criminal junta. With the stroke of a few dozen crayons, Joe Stolin has wiped out thousands of jobs with the shuttering…
Good morning, kids. Midweek and it appears as if the illegal and unconstitutional attempt to impeach Donald Trump post-presidency has failed. The only reason for the Enemy Junta and their co-conspirators in the GOP to do this is not only to humiliate the deposed former President but by successfully convicting and removing him from the elective…
A compliant and deferential press is a powerful tool for dictators; how else do they communicate the wonderful news that gasoline is dropping in price from $2/gallon to $5/gallon! President Trump’s term was marred by a viciously antagonistic media that minimized or hid his myriad accomplishments and inflated his real or imagined flaws and missteps…
Good morning, kids. Tuesday and the beat (down) goes on. I’m still numb from everything that’s happened since last November, sort of like having my legs amputated at the thigh and yet still feeling like I can run the 100-yard dash. Just one short year ago, which seems like an eternity, Iran was on the…
Good morning, kids. Monday and the start of the first full week under the Enemy Junta. It may resemble a Givenchy pump or Testoni loafer, but its hobnail jackboot pedigree is unmistakable. As I said last week at the funeral of what remained of the United States of America, the policy insanity that started on…
There are dozens of words to describe what can only be seen as discarding one’s political philosophy for less honorable goals. The entire media-inspired conceit that politicians who “rise above” their political philosophy for some sort of communitarian goal are statesmen and grand national leaders is a cover for exactly the sort of politician that…
Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and the rollercoaster of emotions are back. After the Enemy stole the election, my mood violently rocked Voyage-to-the-Bottom-of-the-Sea explosion-like, back and forth between hope and despair. Now actually, since the installation ceremony of Josef Visarrionovich Robinette Stolin on Wednesday that made a low grade Triumph of the Willouttake look like the…
The Democrat party, once the party of slavery, and when that ended the party of segregation and overtly racist policies, has morphed into the party of the rich and well connected, and even worse, the party of corporatism. That is not to say that they have abandoned their roots; scratch a progressive and find a…
Good morning, kids. Thursday and I’m numb. I really don’t know that I have the koy’ech to do this today, and when I realize I’ve got another 1,460 days after today I want to go stick my head in an oven. Then again, considering the dreck I’m wading through from yesterday, I’m sure there are quite a…
The stations of uncensored expression are closing down; the lights are going out; but there is still time for those to whom freedom… mean[s] something, to consult together. Let me, then, speak in truth and earnestness while time remains……A state of society where men may not speak their minds, where children denounce their parents to…
