(Illustration: ‘Landscape of Change,’ waterolor by Jill Pelto, and found here). Along with COVID killing people all across the planet (according to John Hopikins University, as of this afternoon, 563,375 Americans have died, 2,951,968 worldwide), the pandemic will cause problems well into the future, which will have treacherous effects on humankind’s ability to function in…
Once more, White House press secretary Jen Psaki today popped not only a reporter, but an asshole Republian who doesn’t know his ass from T-Rump’s butt. Psaki can really work: Details via Mediaite this afternoon: White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki delivered a curt response to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) for his criticism of President Joe Biden’s social and television media…
Although I received my second COVID-19 vaccine shot this morning, Merced County where I reside is still in California’s worse purple tier category as apparently the rest of the state seems to be finally getting out from under the coronavirus blanket — per the Merced Sun-Star last Tuesday: Merced County has lagged behind others in…
(Illustration: ‘Look, We’ve Got To Improve Our Voter-tracking,’ canvas print by Rpbert Mankoff, and found here). In an obvious reaction to the T-Rump and Republicans in general the past four years (especially the last couple), the majority of Americans are tending to slip leftward in response to the clusterfuck hoisted upon them with GOP-influenced COVID…
Another Monday in the life as the US continues to unwind itself from the coils of a crazed pandemic and four horrific years of the T-Rump madness where everything went to shit in a big bucket.

Anyone who does any driving — Before Times and the COVID pandemic, of course — can see our roadways, bridges and assorted, related structures are shot-to-shit and have been in crappy-dangerous condition for a long time. In fact, you have to go back 65 years to the last activity with our transportation/electrical grid complex and…
As the ‘normal‘ is made the new ‘abnormal‘ in this day-and-age, Joe Biden is taking the bull by the horns and moving this country in the right direction despite the over-stuffed spasms of Republicans, who are drowning in bile and ignorance without lifting a finger. Hence, this afternoon the first gathering of Joe’s team: Some…
Jolting Joe Biden continues on a roll as he’s expected to propose a $2 trillion infrastructure plan today during an event in Pittsburgh — supposedly the first of two parts, the ‘American Jobs Plan‘ would not only re-build our transportation system, but invest in care for elderly and disabled Americans, create more affordable housing, refurbish…
As Joe Biden continues to be as popular as ever, and carries on with poise and determination, the wallowing-in-pity T-Rump maintains his lying status as a goof-ball dipshit, and after hyjacking a wedding repection over the weekend to rant bullshit, today he lashed-out at his own COVID historical reality. In a blathering statement released from…
Some dangling participles today from Joe Biden’s first presidential press conference with an emphasis on reporters not really doing their jobs (I touched on this yesterday) and seeking out shit not needed to be sought (via a review of the event at CJR): Dan Froomkin, the journalism critic, said that the presser created the impression that as…
