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”

What IS in the Kool-Aid?

In the Inheritance series by Christopher Paolini, the corrupt priests worship flesh-eating gods what demand regular sacrifices.

How About Me Now?

I’m not going to say District Attorney Fani Willis needed any kind of validation from anybody. I don’t know the lady. I wish I did, but that is a totally different point.

August 1, 2023-A Day For History

At about 5:00 P.M. today, Special Counsel Jack Smith announced that the indictments had been unsealed and four felony charges had been made against Donald John Trump Sr. Now, before anyone gets all emotional about this post, allow me to caution you that this is not a time for jubilation or anger. This is veryContinue reading “August 1, 2023-A Day For History”

He’s Perfect! (At This Anyway)

For a guy with so many blemishes, this is at least an unblemished record. Although it is probably a record he’d rather not have. He’s batting a perfect 1.000 at LOSING every single lawsuit, motion, appeal, and any other legal maneuver that he has attempted since being “fired” from the White House. He wasn’t doingContinue reading “He’s Perfect! (At This Anyway)”
