“Get over it” Is How Republicans Intend To Finish What They Started
Make no mistake – what the Republican Party pulled off election day 2016 was nothing less than a soft coup d’état. Recognizing that the nation’s demographics spelled certain political marginalization and doom, Republicans sought to impose permanent minority rule on America first by hijacking the judiciary (a mission Moscow Mitch McTreason started back when Obama…

Let’s Be Clear – What we call “Syria”, Putin Calls “Russia-South” – And We Just Handed Russia-South A Big Win
Vladimir Putin has never been shy about his goals. Aside from remaining the richest man on earth (because he’s also the most corrupt), Putin wants to restore the “Greater Russia” that the Soviet Union had, but lost. And he wants to restore Russia to “Greater Russia” at our expense. After all, it was America that…

Dear MSM – Trump Won’t “Become” A Traitor The Moment YOU Realize He Is One, He’s Been One ALL ALONG
I’ve spent a ton of words here, trying to put my finger on why it is America’s press consistently fails to adequately report the story we’re all living through. The answer to my question, ultimately, is perspective. Our MSM (not their fault, really) have no perspective on an historical event so monstrous, so huge, so…

The Problem With Coming Late To The Party
Think back to election night 2016. I bet you can still recall that sick feeling in the pit of your stomach when it hit you that the impossible – Trump “winning” the presidency – had just happened. Some of us saw that sick feeling as more than just disgust at a bad election result. It…

Telling Trump-Russia From Trump’s Point Of View Is As Dumb As Telling A James Bond Movie From Blofeld’s Point Of View
Every time a journalist on the TV frames the chaos we’re living through from Donald Trump’s point of view, I want to scream. And I often do. If you ask a liar if he’s lying and the liar lies (says “no, I’m not lying”), are you doing anyone any favors by telling their story without…

Here’s What Happens When We “Pull Back The Lens” — And We NEED To Pull It Back NOW…
Lack of perspective kills. A swimmer who sees only the immediate water around them – lovely and turquoise – but not the school of hungry sharks circling that lovely bit of turquoise? That swimmer is chum. Religionistas will insist that their deity wants them to live according to the rules set down by ignorant (by…

Unchallenged Lies Become Truth – That’s Why EVERY TRUMPIAN LIE Has To be Called Out
No revelation here: It is way, WAY easier to sell Americans bullshit than it is to take that bullshit away from them once they’ve acquired a taste for it. H L Mencken got it right: no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence or taste of the American public. Maybe our problem is Americans (conservative…

Why Is It So Much Easier To Sell People Bullshit Than It Is To Give Them The Truth?
Magic is sparkly bullshit. It’s no more real just because it glitters a little.

Dear MSM: Donald Trump Doesn’t Stop Being A Traitor Just Because You Aren’t Telling THAT Story About Him
It’s bad enough what Donald Trump is doing to the country, the Constitution and the American People. It’s compounded daily by the MSM’s inability to get ahead of this story. Or grasp it at all. Not only do they report it from behind, they report it from well behind. They’re the clean up crew scraping…

Dear MSM – Donald Trump Isn’t The Only One Betraying The Constitution
A few minutes ago, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Representative Adam Schiff gave a remarkable news conference. In addition to reminding the American Press that Democrats routinely walk and chew gum at the same time (maybe the Press CAN’T do it – and assume the Democrats can’t either), Speaker Pelosi framed the Impeachment Question as a…
