Herold. Azterodt. Mudd. Powell. Arnold. Move aside. Make room for company. Giuliani. Graham. McConnell. Cruz. Bannon. For those whose American history lessons have expired, that first bunch was convicted of a plot to facilitate the act of a charismatic assassin, John Wilkes Booth. The…
I’m no front-runner, band-wagoner, Johnny-come-lately. I backed Joe Biden from the start. Or at least from Aug. 30, 2018. About that date in a moment. I didn’t write about my support of Biden back then because I didn’t want to throw shade on any of the…
This is not fake news. Donald Trump does not run the country. You say he never did. You say the Constitution does. Ah, but he was prepared to show you differently. When he was impeached, Republicans in the U.S. Senate told him he could. All but…
The Trump presidency has been a collage of outrages. The biggest outrage: It’s all been our tab. Like the three-dollar glasses of water billed to us by Mar-a-Lago when Trump’s club raked in $37,500 hosting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Ahem. What did we pay for…

Ten months and 200,000-plus deaths after it knew what we know now about this virus, the White House is saving some lives. Cramped, mask-less campaign rallies. Canceled. Sycophantic fundraisers. Canceled. Red-clad gatherings hosted by the Super-Spreader himself. Cancelled. Lives saved. Good information and precautions suddenly are enunciated.…
“Get rid of the ballots and you’ll have a peaceful ― there won’t be a transfer, frankly, there’ll be a continuation. The ballots are out of control. You know it.” – Donald Trump Out of control? Yes. Completely out of Trump’s control, as early and mail-in voting starts in several…
