War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Autumn continues with cool sunshine this late-afternoon Wednesday in California’s Central Valley — I can’t believe half the workweek is gone already as we start the slide toward another weekend. Time flies whether you’re having fun or not, or whether you just sit and stare at the clock — nowadays and despite the proverb, a…
A way-hearty laugh amid the constant shitstorms — (h/t tengrain): And in further news for a man who loves hearing a goat gossiping most-cutely across a fence is notice of an increase in Social Security checks, which as a retiree, I utterly and throatily applaud — via CNN just a while ago: Social Security recipients…
Although Republicans/MAGA hatters/Q-balls hate vaccine and mask mandates, the COVID-19 virus loves them — yesterday Texas nit-twit Gov. Greg Abbott idiotized an executive order barring private companies or any other entity from requiring vaccines, this in a state where 67,000 people have already died, with most-likely many more to come. It’s been noted before that…
(Illustration: Famous Santa Monica, California, Pier with 1.5°C (2.7°F) rise in global temperatures, and found here). Way-windy and chilly this mid-day Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, but nowhere as fierce as yesterday’s blustery time — this morning on our daily walk with Leroy (my daughter’s Basset hound/Greyhound mix) there was down tree limbs/debris along our…
Among a pile of T-Rump stories this Monday afternoon — for instance, he whined on Newsmax about a reporter for Fox News; there’s a stream of reportable shit off his rally Saturday night in Iowa, where GQP bootlickers paraded before the T-Rump crowd (especially Chuck Grassley, who swallowed turn-about lie-turds up to his eyeballs that…
Nice early-autumn, late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley with warm sunshine and cool shade. Out in the backyard a few moments ago doing a B&M (Wine, wood-tip) break, and the ambiance comforting with family/children noises from neighbors around about, though, none all that close, but still a kind of musical normalcy. A sense rare…
On occasion, a Friday news-story dump happens early, and sometimes it’s not even a dumpster item — Joe Biden was straight today with his official dismissal of T-Rump’s ‘executive privilege‘ bullshit, maybe allowing access to some criminally-cringeworthy documents. All kinds of material shit, phone records, emails, whatnot, leading to the Jan.6 insurrection/riot: In just the…
In America’s never-ending, near-continuous daily unfoldings of T-Rump’s Big Lie bullshit and his unprecedented attempts to keep on being president even after obviously losing the November election, today another chapter — the Orange Turd tried to weaponize the DOJ to overturn the whole shebang. The Senate Judiciary Committee released a 400-page report, aptly entitled, “Subverting…
Even as Joe Biden and Democrats strive to keep America afloat, the truth-bringing to the dumb-ass ‘coup’ attempt by the T-Rump at the end of his term in office appears to be hitting too close to home — if you can’t lie your way out of shit, then just ignore the law. As Congressional Republicans…
Even as the world turns, the debt-ceiling trainwreck is still hollering on down the track with about two weeks left before the US powers off the rails into financial never-never land. Odd, though, the entire bullshit caper is spawned by a political party that doesn’t even pretend to give a shit about what happens to…
