War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Hey to the way-few readers of Compatible Creatures — I’ll most-likely not be posting for a while. My children will be in town this week — we’ve got an Airbnb not too far away and it looks to be a fun time. A lot of shit will happen — or not — before I post…
Across the great divide of Red and Blue America, the MAGA hatters, anti-mask nutcases currently making life feel worse have been seething underground forever waiting for someone like the T-Rump to come along and plug them into the socket of openness and riot. In the context of crazy — this event last Sunday at a…
UPDATE: Late-afternoon Friday: Background per CNN: The President’s comments, the strongest yet from Biden on possible repercussions for those who refuse to cooperate with the select committee’s requests, upended days of discipline from the White House, which has sought to distance itself from the House’s expected criminal contempt referral against Steve Bannon. White House press…
(Topside Note: Great-big thank-you this morning from this humble, tiny blog to Tengrain [Mock, Paper, Scissors] for a shout-out at Crooks&Liars‘ blog line-up — super-nice way to start the day). As we stare down a possible economic collapse/catastrophe due to the foolishness of a debt ceiling muck-a-muck, the violent, crazy side of right-sided society will…
Life is straddling a nasty fence right now, caught in an entanglement of a deadly pandemic, a crisis in democracy, and the accelerating effects of climate change. One is surging on us right now, killing already nearly three-quarters of a million Americans, the other two appear coming further down the line, but are closer than…
In celebration of way-most-likely the last authentic American president in political/social reality elected old school within a system considered now as ‘quaint,’ or historically old-fashioned. And Republicans back then seemed to care about the country. Happy Birthday! James Earl Carter (h/t tweet tengrain): Although I’ve never met President Carter, I did interview Rosalynn Carter during…
Another T-Rump book hit the InterWebs this Tuesday morning, and shock and awe, he’s still an asshole piece of shit. How many of these non-literary scandal sheets are coming — just last week was Bob Woodward’s saga and dozens came before that, all tell the gross, nasty story of the horridness of the T-Rump. In…
(Illustration: ‘A Wall Made of Fruitcakes,’ by Dave Whamond, and found here). In the context of T-Rump being mentally unstable — i.e., the whole Gen. Milley affair — here’s another instance of assholes in high places knowing the orange turd was nuts, but said nothing and allowed shit to happen. Prior to even the 2016…
Big-bang item in the news cycle this Tuesday morning — beyond the Gavin Newsom recall election out here in California (hope to do a post on it later today) — is another horrible inside look at the clusterfuck of T-Rump’s final days in the White House. He’s a known mental menace for America — all…
Joe Biden is handling a shocker this afternoon, usually in his normal, low-key stand-out approach on the bombings in Afghanistan (death toll has risen, now 13 in total of American military fatalities, with 14 wounded), as the US/NATO endgame’s intensity will most-likely kick-up a notch or two. Supposedly, suicide assholes from the Afghan chapter of…
