War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Only idiots allowed: Adding to the theme, Digby last week noted the power of Republicans pulling back the curtain on the T-Rump: It is a smart strategy to tell this story through Republicans. It should quell some of the mistrust that’s been sown by Trump and his allies over the fact that the committee only…
Cool and comfortable this near-noon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — guilt-outlandish considering a few other places: The video above has most-likely been viewed a shitload of times this past week as weather across the US has been way-out-there, as an old saying goes, but horribly-sad becoming the ‘new normal’ as our environment heats…
Fifty years seems a long time. However, entire perspective on the calendar depends on the point of view. If you’re a youngster, thoughts on a three-month summer vacation from school could easily appear as forever-time, but if you’re in your mid-70s, 90 days is a near-about finger snap. And with even half a century gone,…
Hot even in the shade this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — the new normal is just an expanded version of the old-new normal. Say what? A dumb lead-in to Constitutional crime. Today, too, was the third installment of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot/coup (I watched most of it on…
In an attempt to escape the depressing horror show of America losing its democratic roots and way of life, let’s turn this afternoon to a way-bigger depressing horror show that will eventually eclipse all other problems, troubles and sources of ruin in all of history — climate change. I know it’s not as immediate as…
Hot and still this near-noon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — our weather is finally catching up with us. We’re forecast to top 100-degrees this afternoon. Although the hearing this morning scheduled for the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot/coup at the US Capitol has been postponed, there was nevertheless some drama: Details/background…
Not too hot this near-noon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — a spot of nice in a country heating up drastically, from LA to the desert-like southwest, further on eastward to the deep south, and then upwards into midwest America, all in a boiling sweat with temperatures way above normal. A precarious situation with…
Breezy and comfortable outside this early-evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley — the wind is a way-big factor in keeping heat down to manageable levels, though, tomorrow we’re supposedly starting another episode of higher temperatures until at least the weekend. Just it’s been hotter than normal earlier than normal, nothing heavy. Also nothing heavy…
Once again this Monday morning, the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot/coup at the US Capitol exposed the lying horror of the T-Rump and his ass-kissing minions in full, truthful sunshine — the Orange Turd was told and knew there was no widespread voter scam, yet continued the lie in order to not…
Warm but not boiling hot this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — a nice respite from the horror-heat of the last couple of days, though the Southwest US is still burning from that ‘heat dome‘ that saturated us starting last week. We’re still going to be hot and the air will get heavy…
