War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Way-appropriate emotional point on this eve of the big-bang Ballot Day:: Just the gut feeling — you want to feel optimistic, you want to lean-into the wondrous polls calling for a Blue Wave, but the anguish-horror of failure — if Republicans keep the House, and Senate, or even if the midterm is a return to…
Sunshine still this late Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — another gorgeous episode of summer. T-Rump appears in a rapid melt-down, or even worse — oh, the causticity, as explained this morning by Gail Collins at the New York Times: Pick your favorite irony: 1) Donald Trump turns out to be terrible at firing…
Sunny and cool this late-afternoon Thursday on California’s north coast — high, sparse clouds shining through a smooth, crisp ocean breeze makes life along the shoreline more-than fairly nice. Anti-nice and horrifying was the scene earlier today in the White House Rose Garden — the T-Rump announced he was pulling the US out of the…
Fog classified as ‘Patchy Drizzle‘ this early-evening Monday on California’s north coast — a gray-chilly Memorial Day. There’d been some way-faded sunshine on occasion in the afternoon, but mostly light wetness… Tone of Memorial Day in the nowadays — (via the Washington Post) this afternoon: In Trump’s White House, aides serve a president who demands…
Warm and sunny this early evening Tuesday on California’s north coast — we continue our good-weather phase, with some high temperatures forecast for the end of this week. I like it… Beyond the web of horror-shit on the T-Rump, just for this particular day, this from James Warren at Vanity Fair this afternoon scoops the nightmare…
Sunshine and wind this early-evening Friday on California’s north coast — supposedly, we’re heading into a warm spell for the next couple of weeks, but here right along the shoreline, ambiance of heat lies in the wind. Still, way-good… Sucking, though, is the T-Rump — could-be-maybe the most shameful burst of shit yet from the…
Bright sunshine and clear skies this late Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — again some gusty winds, too, but not a bit tedious. Rain expected early Thursday, and then on-and-off wet weather for a few days. James Comey is a cretin-asshole, but what-the-fuck! Josh Marshall at TPM signals a sense ‘This is a very,…
A gorgeous, sunshine-filled Tuesday afternoon here on California’s north coast — onward we go… In just one sentence on his show last night, Stephen Colbert nailed the T-Rump persona: ‘“You’re not the Potus, you’re the Bloatus, you’re the glutton with the button, you’re a regular Gorge Washington, you’re the presi-dunce, but you’re turning into a real…
Bright-sunshine and warm temperatures this Friday afternoon on California’s north coast. Today for my area, one of those ‘good-as-it-gets‘ — weather-wise. Fright-wise, is the T-Rump truly a psychotic, psychopathic asshole, an unsafe nutball? A professional answers the question: “I’ve worked with some of the most dangerous people our society produces, directing mental health programs in…
Rain this late-afternoon Wednesday on California’s north coast, with an occasional heavy-downpour accompanied by some gusty winds — the current cycle will reportedly play out sometime tomorrow, and maybe steady-sunshine by Friday. Our rainy season this year is really getting old… Beyond not-enough sunshine, also irritating is the dangerous T-Rump — the bullshit off the…
