War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
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…
Overcast a bit this Sunday afternoon here in California’s Central Valley, yet still hot as shit — just at the century mark temperature-wise right now, which maybe/hopefully will be the high for the day and it’ll start cooling down. Out in the backyard just a short while ago, and even with the ‘soft’ cloud cover…
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.

Direct off-shoot of the vile, nastiness of the T-Rump persona is the in-your-face cruelty genre, a ‘Karen’ — ‘Wikipedia: Karen is a pejorative term for a woman seeming to be entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is normal. The term also refers to memes depicting…
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…
(Illustration Statue of Liberty and a part of New York harbor a couple of days ago — image found here). Near-clear skies and getting warmer this mid-day Friday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re supposed to hit triple figures by late afternoon, which is nothing new. Our good fortune so far is the air…
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…
this A major item, but lost in the endless shit-pile of all kinds of news stories — on some peripheral edge, I think maybe I’d seen a headline with the word, ‘chip,’ in it: Apparently, so bad: ‘The Biden administration is developing plans to quickly spend $52 billion to deal with semiconductor supply issues if…
