War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Weekend again and on this early-evening Saturday here in California’s Central Valley there’s a sense of the horror that would come from a second trip to the White Houe next year for the T-Rump — a lot of media attention has been paid the last few weeks on how horrid-shitty would the re-election of the…
In a year of note-worthy union accomplishments across a wide variety of occupations from show biz to the auto industry, now it’s the media’s turn to stand in the labor spotlight — today about 750 editorial employees of The Washington Post are staging a one-day (24-hour) writers’ strike. The Post Guild union says management is…
I’m 75-years old today, and was freakin’ born on a Monday — WTF! (Image found here.) In the passion of time, today was formed from just yesterday, or maybe 1978 (when I was 30). Seemingly, after I turned 70 in 2018, it’s so like I aged a shitload in only five years, with a surge…
Here we are on Friday, the day after yesterday. Although there’s great news out of Gaza, in America, the Republican brand remains not-screwed-on-tight with letting go of the crazy. Not only from the T-Rump — shit starts at the head — but from the whole, mentally-unbalanced MAGA lot has the influence. Turkey day was also…
As we start Thanksgiving week this Monday morning in the US, the world is on the edge of shit-storming climate change seemingly barreling out of control without much reactions — UN Secretary-General António Guterres warns: ‘“Present trends are racing our planet down a dead-end 3C temperature rise. This is a failure of leadership, a betrayal…

A few weeks (or maybe a few days) before that photograph above, as a young journalist, I had interviewed Rosalynn at another airport, the one in Montgomery, Alabama, as she made a…
Weekend again — time flies when America is having so much fun! And via the wondrous Randy Rainbow explaining the anti-marvelous Ms Santos: Meanwhile, straying further from dream to nightmare: In that near-same, familiar vein this morning: And then, get freaking, fucking serious: Although not a mystery, there’s an Enigma not-so-quick at hand: A riot/insurrection,…
Back in the saddle again! Or onto the laptop again, whichever works! This is my first post after my cataract eye surgery last week at the Fresno VA Medical Center and from all early indications the procedure on my right eye turned out really good. with the examination the day after surgery showed A-Okay to…
I’m scheduled for eye surgery tomorrow at the VA Medical Center in Fresno so it might be a while before I post again here. Vision is somewhat important in writing, even with blog writing, located maybe at the bottom of the literary-totem pole. The procedure I’m to undergo is considered supposedly no big deal (Mayo…
Legal shit popped out of the T-Rump’s mouth today during his testimony in the New York fraud case — one idiot example: ‘“If I want to build something, I built a very big ballroom, a big ballroom that I built, it was very large, very beautiful.”‘ Just another ramshackle performance of the orange asshole, which…
