War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
This pissed me so-off this week — I was going to post about it yesterday, but ran out of both time and energy — the shifty shittiness of Republicans after four years of the nasty, crass-foul mouth of the T-Rump and a few particular asshole GOPers who continously talk shit about minorities, women, children, the…
Last Sunday came word some ‘unknown’ hackers (Russians!) cracked the cyber systems of multiple US government agencies — from the Department of Homeland Security to the Department of Commerce — and maybe some state/city networks as well, and now today it’s been disclosed the breach is big as shit, and still going. General details from…
As here on Thursday morning, the COVID-19 virus is still in the surge mode, with no end in sight even with the roll-out of a vaccine — yesterday, the US average number of daily cases across a week was 215,729 (more than three times what the daily case average was during a summer peak in…
As COVID-19 surges across California, the technical aspects of a vaccine roll-out are being pondered not only in logistics, but who will be getting the first doses, and beyond health-care workers and the elderly, there’s seemingly an endless line of hopefuls. In order to make a choice starting today, a pair of advisory committees —…
Best short-spicy summary yet of the idiotic garbage the T-Rump’s legal team has splatered across the political landscape on election stealing/fraud came this morning via Paul Campos at LG&M in explaining the next step come Jan. 6 in the losing/lost battle for the White House: If even one senator joins the objecting House Republicans however,…
Politics of health nowadays is deadly. Here on this Tuesday evening, the country is being ground into mush by a pandemic fueled in part by a huge faction of Americans sprouting bullshit from the Republican bullhorn, twisting facts into lies and killing 300,000-plus people. The huge problem with getting a handle on COVID-19 is politics…
Yesterday seemed special as politics and the coronavirus overlapped each other with Joe Biden finally nabbing the Electoral college president-elect title (and this morning both MoscowMitch and his benefactor, Vlad Putin, belateldy proclaimed as such), and America’s first COVID-19 vaccine rolled out — the Pfizer/BioNTech shot was first administered to New York health-care worker, Sandra…
A couple of big stories this Monday afternoon, neither a big surprise, but one kind of sudden — the Electoral college voted correctly with Joe Biden once again proclaimed President-Elect (how many times now?), and in a kind of aftershock, US AG Bill Barr resigned, an action of “a mystery wrapped inside a riddle.” First,…
As if there wasn’t enough shit on our plates, now the Russkies: And it was the Russians — via Reuters, updated this evening: Hackers believed to be working for Russia have been monitoring internal email traffic at the U.S. Treasury Department and an agency that decides internet and telecommunications policy, according to people familiar with…
America is currently located at a twisted crossroads where our 250-year-old experiment in democracy has come to a threshhold of change, one way or another the future is storm-cloudy. The T-Rump and a hige chunk of Americans seem to think we can veer off into the weeds and be fine — the bad shit is…
