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

I believe most Americans have heard the term ‘Shari law,’ usually used in anti-Muslim rhetoric to fan the flames of fear that Muslim Americans and Muslim immigrants are intent on imposing this form of law in America. Sharia law is a form of law based upon the Koran and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.… Continue reading Jan 3, 2024

Happy New Year! I hope I will be saying the same thing one year from now. There is no doubt this year will be one for the history books. I suspect as the legal noose continues to tighten around Trump’s political neck, he will become more and more unhinged. We all know what they say… Continue reading Jan 2, 2024

This being the age of conspiracy theories and political dirty tricks, I thought I would do a little speculating of my own. The fact is, the Republicans, including Trumpelstiltskin, don’t have many ‘real’ issues with which to confront Joe Biden for 2024 besides ‘wokeness’ and illegal immigration. Inflation is dropping and is currently about 3… Continue reading December 30

There continues to be articles and op-eds written about what a second Trump presidential term would look like. Most of them concern the fact that he could become the first dictator in American history. The fact is, Trump is already a dictator, so I don’t really understand why people are spending all these brain spells… Continue reading December 29
