War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
A news-worthy Friday with all kinds of shit making the cycle along with the continuing weather stories, COVID surging through vaxxed and un-vaxxed and the T-Rump getting skinned. Not only was he busted for coup incitement, but was also slapped hard by the dreaded, Achilles heel, always-present personal-fright-fight to keep his taxes hidden: ‘The Treasury…
Weather lede again this mid-day Friday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re at 94-degrees right now with a forecast buzz-high of 104, which despite what the prediction-people say, feels like we’ve already cleared that bar. All indications for a way-hot afternoon. And heat is a good metaphor for some breaking-big news back in DC…
A couple of items this Thursday morning that seem to project just what a miserable state-of-affairs is the entire Republican Party — lying, delusional and nasty is their entire bag. Mo Brooks, the asshole from my birth state of Alabama (don’t look down at me, everybody’s got to be from somewhere), will most-likely be forced…
Sunny, hot, and somewhat-humid this mid-day Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley. Even with scattered-overcast skies, it’s going to get warm — we’re in the mid-80s right now, forecast for 103 later this afternoon. Just out back doing a B&M (Wine, Wood-tip), and I could feel the truth in that temperature prediction. Anyway, one of…
Serious news all day — this morning testimony/a review of a terrible-ass insurrection; while this afternoon a slide back in the struggle to get a grip on the COVID-19 virus — the former, all politics and dying, and the latter, horribly also all politics and dying. Republicans and the T-Rump have a lot to answer…
Dominating the news cycle this Tuesday morning by a way-long shot is the opening session of the House Select Committee on the Jan.6 attack on the US Capitol, and began at the most-correct point — testimony from four police officers who defended the building that day. And the all-around best response to the hearing, which…
Even in the vast multitude of crude remarks from the T-Rump, today Kevin McCarthy added an overall collective word to the ever-expanding Republican asshole-lexicon — ‘churlish: 1) like a churl; boorish; rude. 2) of a churl; peasantlike. 3) stingy; mean. 4) difficult to work or deal with, as soil.‘ McCarthy tried to act mockingly, but…
In a display that’s getting old and worn, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki schooled Fox News‘ Peter Doocy afresh today on COVID facts and figures — some ‘reverse gotcha’ podium speak: Details per Raw Story: White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday was forced to explain the basics of the coronavirus pandemic to…
In search of soul, the T-Rump took his Big Lie bullshit on the road today, with an appearance in Phoenix, titled as obvious as possible, “Rally to Protect Our Elections,” which leaves an acid taste in the mouth when read, to hear it spoken could cause immediate, acute diarrhea. Beyond back-slapping some Republican assholes running…
COVID and the T-Rump is one horrifying combo. Direct off-shoot of the vile, nastiness of the T-Rump persona is the in-your-face cruelty genre, a ‘Karen’ — ‘Wikipedia: Karen is a pejorative term for a woman seeming to be entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is normal. The term also refers to memes depicting…
