Immigrants And Jobs

That little “dueling border visit” thing that Joe Biden and Donald Trump did this week would have been hilariously funny if it hadn’t been so painfully pathetic. I’m as serious as a massive coronary. On the one hand, you had Donald Trump fumbling his speech, supposedly tripping over Gov. Gavin Newsom’s name (he wasn’t), tryingContinue reading “Immigrants And Jobs”

Empty Wallet?!

After all the bragging and swaggering, he finally has to admit what every Democrat in the country already knew-he might have credit with some people, but when it comes to cash, Donald John Trump is flat broke. Oh. My. Goodness. That has to have just shattered his fragile ego like a baseball through a crystalContinue reading “Empty Wallet?!”

Infrastructure In Your Area

Something I hear fairly frequently is this statement: “Well, I don’t know where all that infrastructure money the federal government loves to talk about went to. I sure haven’t seen any of it around here.” Yeah, you have. You just didn’t know what you were looking at, Bubba and Darryl. Another thing, too, is thatContinue reading “Infrastructure In Your Area”

It Is Not Inevitable That MAGA Wins

I’ve noticed some things that Main Stream Media (MSM) is not reporting. Now remember that most of the outlets are OWNED by people who are themselves supporters of right-wing causes. They are all very much right-wing leaning or frankly MAGA. That includes the Washington Post (Jeff Bezos although they do try to stay fairly middle-of-the-road),Continue reading “It Is Not Inevitable That MAGA Wins”

Christmas Together 2023

Our last Christmas together as a democracy. That sounds really ominous, doesn’t it? But it very well could be the case. I certainly do not want it to be and my optimistic personality says that it won’t be, but I’m realistic enough to realize that in 2016, I didn’t think that our country would electContinue reading “Christmas Together 2023”

Predictably, GOP Senators & House Representatives Have Boxers In A Twist

Note: This does not mean a wedgie. Americans invariably go there. It means to be anxious, worried, upset, or bothered. Now, carry on. U. S. District Court Judge Steve Jones ruled on October 26, 2023 in a 516-page order that the State of Georgia’s redistricting map was in violation of the Voting Rights Act ofContinue reading “Predictably, GOP Senators & House Representatives Have Boxers In A Twist”

Sometimes You Could Not Have Said It Better

This is by Jack Bernard from over in Fayette County, I believe. He writes columns for a few publications. I don’t get to read all of them. This one caught my attention. It’s a letter to Jody Hice, who probably would not understand it if he read it, but at least we can. Thanks, Jack,Continue reading “Sometimes You Could Not Have Said It Better”

Worried About Our Children’s Education

I know it will take time for our school systems to rebound from the COVID19 pandemic DISASTER (and it was exactly that, especially in terms of education.) We started at the back of the pack and, doggone, it got worse. What’s the truth? It’s hard to tell from what our own Superintendent of Education andContinue reading “Worried About Our Children’s Education”

Excuse Me, But Who Made You God?

If I had been born long ago in Scandinavia, I most likely would have been a “shieldmaiden”. My mom said I have a contrary streak about 2 miles wide and about that deep. It’s probably a good thing I never went into the military. I was just one of those children that when told IContinue reading “Excuse Me, But Who Made You God?”
