War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
In the massive letters of law broken by the T-Rump down through the ages, especially even consisting in his brief four-year tour of duty as POTUS, breaking laws, up-ending ethics, and generally being a complete asshole to everything and everybody, this Friday morning, another close-to-crime story cranks into the cycle. Drifter grifter all day long:…
Breezy but still hot this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — another day in the life. Scrolling the news continues the flashdance of Republicans being nasty about everything, even when withholding baby formula from babies, and showcasing exactly what hypocrisy and shitheel combination looks like — we’re in for a real shitfest if…
(Illustration out front: ‘The Three Amigos,’ and found here). An idiot remains an idiot despite the whitewash, and even with the incense burning tattering holes in history books. When this blog first appeared 15 years ago last month — April 22, 2007 — (I forgot the anniversary until a few days later, but the past…
As we approach the midterms, the biggest obstacle in the way of democracy being upheld is the real rule of journalism — tell the actual, f*cking truth. A nifty, right-on piece directed at the root matter of journalism, which I originally missed/overlooked with all the other shit filling the in-box of the nowadays (h/t tweet…
(Image by illustrator Randall Enos, and found here). Sign of life, maybe? Merrick Garland has been acting quiet the last year on any kind of action on the T-Rump criminal works, and many had figured he’d been napping this whole time. Even despite this in March: ‘On his first anniversary as attorney general, Merrick Garland…
Warming up outside now near mid-day Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — we expect 90-degree air this afternoon, and maybe close to 100 tomorrow. Summer ahead doesn’t look too charming for us out on the Left Coast. And mainly for everyone everywhere. Beyond the violence of white, hate-filled assholes and crazy-ass Russian dictators, and…
Breezy and chilly this early-evening Saturday here in California’s Central Valley. We’re forecast for some cool weather for the next few days, maybe take the sting out of the approaching summer heat. Among the various news items today were reports of the T-Rump’s rally last night in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, in support of his desired Senate…
(Illustration: From ‘The American Instructor.’ via American Antiquarian Society, and found here). In the shadow of this week’s SCOTUS bomb, the American scene has been in some kind of turmoil — hardcase cruelty exposing Republicans as living/breeding a hypocritical lie that could drown us all. Yet history has already set the precedent. Molly Farrell at…
Sick place, America, right now. In much of our goings-on, there’s a shitload of cruelty, hypocrisy, and self-centered screaming against doing/being good to our fellow humans. A certain view disallows any other, with malice aforethought. That leaked SCOTUS opinion has raised the stakes on natural freedom and choice — the future is dark, dystopian and…
Tidal wave, bomb, blow-out, and maybe hundreds of other words could have been used today to describe the SCOTUS leaked opinion from last night, and the punch back from everyone with a thought on the matter, yet there’s only one real meaning to this shit — cruel and usual circumstances at last on the podium…
