War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
In the midst of COVID, low economic numbers, the Liz Cheney/Elise Stefanik shit-storm, Joe Biden wearing a mask longer than necessary, and an assortment of other news items cycling through the system this morning — even from last night of the Alabama legislature startlingly okaying medical marijuana (being originally from there, I did not see…
If you think just a minute, it’s utterly way-way-inconceivable that the T-Rump could be causing such chaos of a shitstorm because the man is a pure, 100-percent idiot. Today supposedly, he returned to his self in announcing a new platform in which he will perform his national duties, which as it turns out, is nothing…

Just when you thought it was safe to go outside again, or maybe even stay inside, depends on the chance: Details via SpaceNews on Friday: China launched the first module for its space station into orbit late Wednesday, but the mission…
Here it is Sunday way-again — we’re now in the fifth month of 2021 and the days have churned past quicker than those cinematic calendar pages rapidly flipping, illustrating the way-fast passage of time. Result of that film scene would be at the end of the sequence some weird shit usually happens. December 2020 seems…
Today marks the anniversary of that infamous White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner where then-President Obama roasted the shit out of the T-Rump, and most-likely put such a scar on the weasel he caused great harm to befall the US five years later. And that horror sustains itself to this very day. Thanks, Obama. No, wrong!…
As I noted in my post this morning, Joe Biden’s speech to Congress last night was a rousing success on many levels and the polling in the aftermath shows the hard results — Americans who watched Joe perform, loved it. Hence, Republicans are having a hard tine grappling with it, as it has become way-obvious…
As Joe Biden gets ready to make his first speech to a joint session of Congress tonight, rolling with a theme of “America is on the move again,” there’s a bit of history, too: ‘He’ll deliver a speech more than a year into the pandemic with the smallest audience in recent memory and a backdrop…
Once again the floating skirt-tails of the T-Rump saga darkened another dim-bulb in the continuing tale of crime, corruption, and crass behavior — New York federal agents executed a search warrant this morning at the home and office of muckraker extraordinaire, Rudy Giuliani, as the noose tightens on high misdeeds and low intelligence. Rudy is…
One of my all-time favorite political people, of the non-office-holder type, is James Carville, coming to my attention as lead strategist for Bill Clinton in 1992, and has since remained in the forefront of talking politics in America and abroad ever since. He has a great zense of self-deprecating humour which adds to his appeal.…
Where does the asshole stop? Tucker Carlson is not only an unmitigated liar, but anti-societal in his rantigs about masks and the fever dream of freedoms. Indeed the horrors of irony are so lost on the right-handed nutjobs creating chaos in a dangerous environment. Despite the deaths of 572,850 Americans in just a bit more…
