War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Serious news all day — this morning testimony/a review of a terrible-ass insurrection; while this afternoon a slide back in the struggle to get a grip on the COVID-19 virus — the former, all politics and dying, and the latter, horribly also all politics and dying. Republicans and the T-Rump have a lot to answer…
Dominating the news cycle this Tuesday morning by a way-long shot is the opening session of the House Select Committee on the Jan.6 attack on the US Capitol, and began at the most-correct point — testimony from four police officers who defended the building that day. And the all-around best response to the hearing, which…
Even in the vast multitude of crude remarks from the T-Rump, today Kevin McCarthy added an overall collective word to the ever-expanding Republican asshole-lexicon — ‘churlish: 1) like a churl; boorish; rude. 2) of a churl; peasantlike. 3) stingy; mean. 4) difficult to work or deal with, as soil.‘ McCarthy tried to act mockingly, but…
In a display that’s getting old and worn, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki schooled Fox News‘ Peter Doocy afresh today on COVID facts and figures — some ‘reverse gotcha’ podium speak: Details per Raw Story: White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday was forced to explain the basics of the coronavirus pandemic to…
In search of soul, the T-Rump took his Big Lie bullshit on the road today, with an appearance in Phoenix, titled as obvious as possible, “Rally to Protect Our Elections,” which leaves an acid taste in the mouth when read, to hear it spoken could cause immediate, acute diarrhea.

As the workweek comes to an end, there’s a whole-lot of ‘go fuck yourself,’ ‘get fucked,’ and ‘fuck you‘ out there — Although Nancy Pelosi used different words on Kevin McCarthy this week, deep-down they meant the same:: “Alright, we’ll just go to our next question now…” And how time flies when you just living…
As the immature, cranky dust-up between Nancy Pelosi and Kevin McCarthy continues, Republicans’ nefarious scheme to put a lid on any investigation into the fever dream of a stolen election comes further into daylight. GQPers are guilty of sedition and they know it. McCarthy tried to put loudmouth quacks on the House Select Committee, but…
Warm but not on the boil side this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — just regular summertime shit with temperatures simmering just under the century mark, with more of the same expected the next few days. Although weather continues to be a major news story, back east in DC the shit-hitting-the-Republican fan is…
One thing Republicans can’t handle is pushback, and their response is generally a baby-whine of pity and way-dumb self-righteousness, and this morning a fine example — Kevin McCarthy got his feelings hurt by Nancy Pelosi: Just on Monday did McCarthy finally name his five Republican picks for the House Select Committee to investigate the January…
Another billionaire shot himself into space again today, Jeff Bezos, asshole-founder of Amazon, tripped out this time, rocketing into space and returning 11 minutes later — it wasn’t a real-hero time (BuzzFeed): ‘But what really captured everyone’s attention was the interesting shape of the rocket. It has inspired a lot of jokes and drawn comparisons…
