War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Beyond the Liz Cheney vs The Big Lie clusterf*ck yesterday, there was another GQP-induced fiction-drama played-out at the House Oversight and Reform hearing on the Jan.6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol building — Republicans lied like laughing assholes, painting the event as nothing more than a walk in the park, apparently exhorting Americans to forget…
(Illustration: ‘Climate Change,’ acrylic and watercolor on canvas, by Mina Bedogne, and found here). As time goes on, we’ll discover the T-Rump’s period in the Oval Office was way-worse then we even supposed, which was shitty beyond shitty, and we knew he hated climate change like he hated taking a bath. He let the clock…
Whoa, this day: Mr. Gibbs: “She was singing about pirates. Bad luck to sing about pirates, with us mired in this unnatural fog… mark my words!” Norrington: “Consider them marked.” — “Pirates of the Caibbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl“ Occasionally comes a day when shit gets marked, and sometimes only after you see…
An aside this afternoon on more T-Rump era shit, this time with the Secret Service — a new non-fiction book, “Zero Fail: The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service,” by Washington Post reporter Carol Leonnig, due out next week, actually covers the protective-agency story back to JFK, the most-recent times, however, are closer in…
Although the shit seems to be hitting the crazy fan for Republicans, the chief point is events on both sides of the proverbial-political aisle is increasingky obvious to the whole-freaking world — on the reality side, plain-popular conspicuous Joe Biden is doing a way-bang-up great job the last three months on many levels, while in the…
Media big-wigs of the MSM are finally circling around to reality journalism of calling Republican lies as ‘lies,’ and not ‘falsehoods, or ‘inaccurate claims,’ or some such nonsense, but f*cking-ass lying. The process has been long in coming and should have been a part of proper reporting for years. Not only of the natural-as-breathing liar…
America has gone trigger happy with gun insanity — the NRA is a mass-murderer’s cult: Over the Mother’s Day weekend there were plenty of gunplay to keep firearm aficionados gleefully occupied — per NPR this morning: ‘We’re just 18 weeks into 2021, and already the U.S. has experienced 194 mass shootings. That averages out to…
Another break in the tedious horror of the nowadays with a view of my personal list of great TV shows to binge, not only once but dozens of times — I watch TV to kick-back and relax, all with at least a sprinkle of humor. As you will see, most of these shows are comedies,…
Topsy-turvey life this Saturday afternoon as we face problems from various fronts, including directly overhead. Last week, China launched a Long March 5B rocket carrying a big piece of that country’s next space station, but the 23-ton core stage has been losing altitude since and will soon make what is called “uncontrolled re-entry” back to…
A way-clear example of just how really, really screwed this country is right now, when two cmplete asshole-liars and most-shitty of people churn-up the bubble-living old folks of south Florida into a scream-like rant of delusion and fantasy, which apparently has no bounds. The statement, “I seen it on TV,” doesn’t really do justice to…
