• Republicans Have A “Point Of View”; They Do Not Have A “Point”

  A car thief — sitting in your car, outside your house, honking the horn because he wants you to see what he’s done — has a thief’s point of view. The thief’s victim — you — also have a point of view. The cops show up just in time. They catch the car thief inside…

• Stealing Elections For Dummies

  Problem number two: our news media — even while reporting that Trump and the GOP are openly cheating in order to win — behave as if cheating to win and winning without cheating are the exact same thing. No, they are not. The rule of law says cheating can NEVER equal winning. Now, the rule…

• What If Donald Trump Didn’t “Win” The Electoral College In 2016 — As In, What If Russia Won It FOR Him?

  The Electoral College was the active part of the racism that our Constitution memorialized — one of its deep flaws. It compromised with evil — with slavery — and no compromise with evil ever turns out well for the compromiser. Evil always wins because, the fact is, you can’t compromise with evil. Russia understands our…

• Dear American News Media — You All Report That Trump’s So Desperate To Win He’ll Destroy The Post Office; PLEASE ASK WHY!

  This is not a “why did the chicken cross the road?” question. Donald Trump doesn’t want to win this election just “to get to the other side”. It’s pretty much universal now that Trump is cheating to win right before our eyes. That is, “cheating to win again.” That’s how it’s put by the “news”…

• Whatever We Have To Do To Get Black Women Political Power, We MUST Do It

  

  I’ve made a bet that I won’t be around to collect on. But, if I could be? I would collect: history will credit Black women with saving America from itself. I feel proud to my core that Kamala Harris is Joe Biden’s VP pick. I would have felt pretty close to equally proud with any…

• Dear American News Media: Even Villains Do Things For A Reason — Like, Say, Republicans…

  Never mind how many times Donald Trump lies, I want a running total of how many time American news people wonder aloud while scratching their heads why the Republican Party continues to march in lock step with him. I bet the journalists are winning. If they scratch their heads any harder, all those journalists will…

• Republicans Have Made Themselves The New Face Of Authoritarianism & Treason

  Show me a Republican and I’ll show you a traitor. The Republican Party is making a calculated gamble that they can get away with altering our form of government right in front of our faces — despite the fact that the majority of Americans not only didn’t vote for them to do this, the majority…

• Republicans Have A “Point Of View”; They Do Not Have A “Side”

  A thief — having just ripped you off — has a thief’s point of view of what he just did. The thief’s victim — you — also has a point of view. The cops show up. They’ve caught the thief red-handed with stolen object literally in hand. You tell your story — your side. The…

• If You Think Living During A Pandemic Is A Bitch, Try Storytelling In It

  And we thought things for storytellers were bad because Donald Trump’s awfulness supersedes anything any writer could ever think up. And then the coronavirus walked in our door. Of all the gin joints in all the world… Trump’s story is so hard to tell that our news media hasn’t gotten within miles of even figuring…

• Men Who Think They’re God

  

  We all know one. Or two or three. Men who’ve got it in their heads that they’re deities. They sure think their junk is. But I’m talking about a small subset of that set — the Bill Barrs of the world. The assholes di tutti assholes. Bill Barr has made his religious views known. He’s…
