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…

It’s This Simple: Every Single Judge Trump Nominated MUST Be Voided (SCOTUS Included): The Rule Of Law DEMANDS IT
The Rule Of Law is coming back — one way or another. The storyteller in me can’t see a storyline where an extreme (and extremist) minority party like the Republicans forces a state of permanent minority rule on America (and — most importantly — AMERICANS) and gets away with it. We’re way too independent for…

Of Course Trump’s Not Prepared To Deal With Coronavirus — He Never Planned To Be President!
Donald Trump & his Republican co-conspirators remind us every day: elections have consequences; stolen elections have even worse ones. Donald Trump is not now nor has he ever been the legitimate POTUS. Painful as it may be, let’s revisit election night 2016. What made a shocking night all the more perplexing was that even Trump…

But, At The End Of The Day — It’s STILL A Damned Coup D’Etat!
Today is slated to be one of the very worst in American History. Today, the corrupt-to-its marrow Republican-controlled Senate will acquit the most corrupt POTUS in American History of charges he’s corrupting this year’s election. Think about that.

Life In Trump’s America: The Political Thriller Of Our Lifetimes Is Also Theater Of The Absurd
Our inner animals knew it instinctively even as the tide was turning election night 2016. We were being told something that every fiber of our being knew was untrue — or knew was truth complicated by layers of deception, deceit and treachery — that Trump had “won” the presidency. Ever read the details on exactly…

It Really Is This Simple: By LAW, You Cannot CHEAT To Become POTUS; Therefore Donald Trump Has NEVER Been POTUS
Now, that’s just The Rule Of Law talking and what does The Rule Of Law know? That’s how Republicans think these days apparently. To be absolutely fair about it, they’re right. The Rule Of Law is a fiction that we invented for our mutual benefit. There are lots of places on Earth where the people…

“Karma’s A Stone Cold Bitch” – MOSCOW MITCH MCCONNELL EDITION
When we get to the end of this sorry-assed saga, Mitch McConnell will stand as one of American history’s Uber-Villains. If you want to know how severely damaged Moscow Mitch is — he’s a lonely bully having his revenge on the rest of the schoolyard — read Jane Meyer’s excellent piece on Mitch in the…

Integrity Is An All Or Nothing Proposition
Nothing is funnier than a Republican drawing himself up, having just been asked a serious question about his integrity. He knits his brows, purses his lips and goes all “earnest” with his voice. Mitch McConnell talking “patriotism” — having just lifted the sanctions punishing Oleg Deripaska for changing the outcome of election 2016, say. That’d…
