War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
In an attempt this late-afternoon Tuesday to stay away from news on the Virginia governor’s race (too anxiety-like depressing), and the sad shenanigans in DC (Asshole Joe Manchin being an asshole, also down-deep depressing) as Joe Biden’s agenda and America’s future goes kaput, and latched onto some new shit on another depressing subject — climate…
Election day 2021 with mostly all-eyes on the Virginia governor’s race, along with contests for mayor in Boston, Atlanta, Minneapolis, New York, and Buffalo (NY), with horrible one-sided races — Democrats want to govern, Republicans want to lie and whine about the evils of all kinds of shit without a thought on voters real concerns.…
One depressing sign of the times unseen by apparently a shitload of Americans — one party (Democrats) are focused on helping people, attempting to enact policies that give aid to families, while on the other political hand, the only other party in this country (Republicans) do not give a shit about anything but power and…
In the status of unknowns nowadays, one major blank space is how AG Merrick Garland and the DOJ will prosecute/or handle the asshole-MAGA hatters arrested from off the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol — and the look of the situation is not really encouraging. Time is of the freedom-loving essence: ‘Attorney General Garland…
As we approach a year after the election, T-Rump’s push on the Big Lie continues to burn brightly and coupled with the shameless anti-democracy shenanigans of the entire Republican party puts America at the end of a short fuse — the assault on our constitutional government norms is led by a vile, horrid orange turd…
(Illustration: Cartoon by Kevin Kallaugher (KAL), and found here). One of the worst people on the planet right now is most-likely Joe Manchin. I know, I know there are murderers out there, rapists, child abusers/pedophiles, killers in mass, yet most of these-pieces-of-shit are hopefully confined to a small space of horror-infliction and not in a…
A lot of DC news today, but most-likely one which will have repercussions both good and bad down the line if the way forward is through justice and accountability and not ‘sitting president’ bullshit. In a House vote, Steve Bannon was held to be contemptible: Details per The Washington Post late this afternoon: The House…
(Illustration: ‘Mammoths from the Ice Age,’ 1969 (gouache on paper), by Angus McBride, and found here). Overcast and maybe a bit on the warm side this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — rain could be coming. Meanwhile, up on the state’s north coast, a “bomb cyclone” system will strike this weekend, with advance…
Colin Powell died earlier today — as I’m sure you now know — he was 84 and lived a high-flying military life. Despite all the achievements, he will be remembered most/best for lying at the UN to allow the inhumane, illegal invasion of Iraq. Reportedly, Powell died from the effects of the COVID virus. Via…
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…
