There has been a lot of speculation about what a second Trump administration would look like. Recently Trump has said that he is thinking about a 15-week nationwide abortion ban. So much for “states’ rights,” which was one of the main arguments behind the overturning of Roe v. Wade. That should serve notice that those… Continue reading March 20, 2024

Poor Donald can’t seem to find anyone to help him post his $454 million bond. One would think that someone who is worth $10 billion (Trump’s words) wouldn’t have such a problem. However, like almost all things Trump, he has lied about his net worth and his wealth for his entire life. This latest development… Continue reading March 19, 2024

More Americans need to start paying attention to the agenda being pushed by the well-funded Heritage Foundation. This organization is like the proverbial wolf in sheep’s clothing. They use flowery sounding, ‘patriotic’ rhetoric, pushed by well groomed men and women in suits to give them an air of respectability but the fact is, they are… Continue reading March 18, 2024

Much has been written about what to expect if Trump wins a second term. However, perhaps the more dangerous situation will arise, at least in the short term, if he doesn’t legitimately win the 2024 election. It is quite possible we will have another January 6th on steroids, and I would be willing to bet… Continue reading March 16, 2024

Just when you think the Republican freak show cannot get any weirder, a new character shows up who makes Marjorie Taylor Greene and Katie Britt seem like paragons of sanity. Enter Michelle Morrow, the GOP candidate for Superintendent of North Carolina public schools. How this lady is legitimately on the ballot versus being in prison… Continue reading March 15, 2024

I mentioned before that I am reading a book, The Power Worshippers: Inside the Dangerous Rise of Religious Nationalism, by Katherine Stewart. I have almost finished the book and it has been an informative and frightening read. It’s unfortunate that more people are not aware of the well-funded and extensive assault on democracy that is… Continue reading March 14, 2024

Yesterday I wrote about the Republican clown car that is also known as the House of Representatives. They continue to demonstrate they have no business trying to govern since they can’t even manage their own affairs. Speaker Mike Johnson wants to have a GOP ‘retreat’ at the Greenbriar Resort in West Virginia next Wednesday and… Continue reading March 13, 2024

The clown show that used to be known as the Republican Party continues to amaze the world at how craven and crass they have become. It’s like Donald Trump himself, who is known far and wide for his outlandish behavior and rhetoric, gathered up the entire remaining flock of Republicans and gave them a master… Continue reading March 12, 2024

There is an old proverb that says, “You are known by the company you keep.”  Donald Trump just hosted Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, at Mar-a-Lago and spoke glowingly of Orban and their meeting. That should tell everyone all they need to know about Trump’s mindset and be a preview for what he has in… Continue reading March 10, 2024

Many days a week I go to the gym here in Bozeman. I try to vary my workouts but I often warm up by briskly walking a mile or so on the treadmill. In the front of the cavernous room containing most of the cardio equipment are several television screens mounted on the wall. The… Continue reading March 9, 2024
