Over the weekend, a Massachusetts Democrat got some earned media and national attention for speaking out about boys playing in girls’ sports. If that’s your hot-button issue, you will want to hear this. Seth Moulton is a congressman from the 6th district in Massachusetts, declared, post-November 5th, that his party is out of touch. “I … Read more
Monday Monday, can’t trust that day! Last week’s Friday Edition. Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons: 1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought 2. Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes 3. For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor. Now, … Read more
An activist historian in the United Kingdom, who rose to prominence as a supporter of Black Lives Matter, recently expounded to the Times on what he sees as the proper role of historians: “I think [the job of historians] is to try to stand there at this arsenal of dangerous ideas and to make it more difficult … Read more
On Tuesday, Americans saved America in no uncertain terms. And it was one of the biggest political tents in election history. Donald Trump’s campaign brought together people of every race, religion, lack of religion, sex, age, you name the demographic, to fend off impending and certain doom. That’s yuge. No matter what happens in the … Read more
The presidential race was not unpredictable, as the now once again discredited polls swore to us. The Republicans had made massive gains in voter registrations since 2020, when Donald Trump had lost the Electoral College by only a few thousand strategically placed votes. Republicans began to master the transition to non-Election Day balloting — first engineered by … Read more
Ever since that Butler attempt to end Trump’s White House bid, the volume of talk pertaining to a possible act of Devine Intervention has become a major addition to the public’s conversation. As my dear late Mom always said, “God works in mysterious ways.” Well, today’s version of that, while not “mysterious” is a resounding … Read more
Americans voted to give President-elect Donald Trump a mandate to enact his campaign promises. Without even stepping foot in the Oval Office, he’s already delivering. In one of Trump’s closing rallies in North Carolina, he unveiled his promise to use tariffs as a vehicle to force offending countries, like Mexico, to stop the flow of illegal immigrants … Read more
Bringing the Number to 28 Chicago and Cook County enjoy majority power and influence in Illinois politics. Major TV networks create shows to make the city look less like a war zone than it is. But people in and out of Chicago know the truth. Illinois without Chicago and Cook County is a peaceful place, … Read more
Liberal women (some liberal women) think they can teach men a lesson. Men voted for Trump, and Trump won, so they are going to refuse to have sex with them. I’m assuming these are women who have sex with men, but the odds are high; it is a lot of women most men wouldn’t have … Read more
You cannot label us misogynistic or racist because Kamala Harris lost her bid for the White House. It was not just white men who elected Donald Trump and rejected Harris’s bid to be the first Black woman to be elected President of the United States. America did not reject Kamala Harris because of her color … Read more
Hat tip out of the gate to Brian Lewis (Grok: Words Mean Things Oct 23rd ) for subscribing to my Substack and, in doing so, allowing me to follow him and find this – a different Substack called The Radical Center, and this content in particular: Transphobia is a False Premise. It’s an excellent read, and … Read more
The first part of the job is done. America elected Donald Trump as the 47th President, completing the most incredible political comeback ever. After multiple impeachments, indictments, and assassination attempts, Donald Trump not only rose from the Washington scrapyard but delivered a mandate given to him by the American voters. At this time, it looks … Read more
Embrace your civic duty and capture the unfiltered feelings the Dems can’t help sharing online (most days, if not every day).
Occasionally, divorced couples reconsider their decision to split up and remarry. The Western world, once enamored of atomic techno-wizardry and promises of cheap, limitless energy, embarked on a lengthy, passionate honeymoon with nuclear power plants. But frightening glimpses of calamities – such as Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, and Fukushima – led to a widespread disavowal … Read more
As several commenters here and in other blogs have noted, a problem situation only exists if you continue to feed it. It is time to stop feeding it. Nonviolent deportation… um, eviction… is possible. All it takes is a reversal of the federal policies that “invited” millions of people to illegally enter the US. The … Read more
The American people have elected you for the third time to preside over their destiny for the next four years.
Celebrities endorsed Kamala’s candidacy under the impression it could move voters to vote…for Kamala.
What happens when “Republicans” don’t do any of the “undemocratic” things Democrats swore they would?
I came across this yesterday and have played it a few times already. After all, I am SICK and TIRED of the Democrats saying that all of us (Conservatives, Conservatarians, Libertarians – you know, anyone NOT them) are “anti-Democracy.” Well, they’re correct! I hate “Our Democracy.” Most of you already know why – we were … Read more
The sides have switched, and the Republicans, led by Donald J. Trump, are having a blast. I say they have been enjoying themselves since July. When Trump came millimeters from being a new verse along with Abraham, Martin, and John, the Right knew that there was a higher power watching over them. There is no … Read more
