If there was ever an example of Trump caring more about Trump than the United States of America and how most Republicans in Congress have become spineless sycophants, the current issues surrounding the bill to provide border security and aid to Ukraine is it. A bi-partisan group in Congress has been working for months to… Continue reading Jan.26, 2024

I am retired after spending 30+ years in the defense industry. I am an avid bicyclist, Harley rider, skier, and world traveler. I really became interested in politics during the last few years but have enjoyed writing on many different topics for a long time. Some people agree with me, some don't and that is fine. My 'musings' are simply an outlet for me.

Iowans, not unexpectedly, just made a mockery of the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law. Entrance polls in Iowa reveal that a majority of Trump supporters don’t believe Biden legitimately won the 2020 election. Of course, we all know that is BS because to date, after over sixty lawsuits, no one has been able… Continue reading Jan. 16, 2024

I’m going to cheat a bit this morning. I’m simply going to pass along some comments that come from the National Review, a magazine that has been a standard bearer for conservatism in America since its founding in 1955 by William F. Buckley Jr. They have dedicated their latest issue to try to convince people… Continue reading Jan. 12, 2024

There are many reasons why Trump is unfit to be president of the United States. There are his numerous legal woes and his two impeachments and all of that should surely disqualify him from ever going anywhere near the White House again. However, one of the things I find most pathetic about Trump is the… Continue reading Jan. 11, 2024

Trump’s main line of defense against his indictment for instigating the Jan. 6th insurrection seems to be that he can’t be prosecuted because he has absolute immunity and that whatever he did while in office constitutes an ‘official act’. When appellate judge Florence Pan asked Trump’s attorneys the hypothetical question, “Could a president order SEAL… Continue reading Jan. 10, 2024

In one of Trump’s latest rants, he said that if he is not given absolute immunity from prosecution, he will indict Joe Biden if he wins in November. Never mind the fact that presidents can’t indict anyone. However, it is pretty much a given that if Trump gets elected, he will surround himself with people… Continue reading Jan. 9, 2024

I was reading something yesterday and it made me reflect upon the pandemic under Trump and how all the current Trump supporters must have a truly short memory, or they just don’t care about the hundreds of thousands of Americans who died needlessly because of how poorly the pandemic was managed under Trump. As a… Continue reading Jan. 8, 2024

In a recent post, I speculated that the huge surge of immigrants at the border was not likely just an organic occurrence. I postulated that perhaps Putin or some Roger Stone-like Republican operatives might be fueling this fire. It turns out that I was not too far off the mark. In the Boston Globe this… Continue reading Jan. 6, 2024

Tomorrow our favorite Congressional flame thrower, Marjorie Taylor Greene, was planning to host a meet and greet to commemorate the third anniversary of January 6th. That is until the venue, the Westgate Resorts in Kissimmee, FL found out what the event was truly about. Once that happened, they cancelled the event. They were originally told… Continue reading Jan 5, 2024
