War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
(Illustration found here.) Out of the depth of the original deed Joe Biden correctly called “an act of sheer evil,” came a noted shitload of acts all carved out of the all-encompassing evil aspects chewed and clawed from the most-wicked history of humanity. Indeed, Hamas has proved nothing, other than a heartless, cruel legacy. And…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early-evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley — a quick turnaround from the heat, a nice break. Not on a break are journalists covering the horror of war now in Israel and the Gaza Strip — even close calls: Nutshell after the scary ‘fuck‘ moment — per The Hill:…
Today 22 years ago was a Tuesday. And a swift change of direction for America, and the world. Of course, this day a couple of decades and change ago, we really didn’t understand just how shitty and horrible was GW Bush and his boys. They upset the fabric of humanity and it’s never really been…
Beyond the domestic tales of treachery with the MAGA/T-Rump Republicans, the Russian near-coup/treachery (or whatever) this past weekend continues to fester itself without any general relief — as been stated long before, what’s known is more unknown right now. Now nearly a week after news of the so-called coup/mutiny/insurrection was mounted by Russian private mercenary…
Overcast again this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — under skies without much sunshine, the temps are lower than normal as summer heat keeps being pushed further and further back into the short-range future.

Today in memory of those KIA in our country’s historically many far-flung wars, a reminder of those currently dying in the really-way asymmetrical war within America (NBC News): ‘A spate of shootings across the United States left at least 16 people dead and dozens injured over Memorial Day weekend. The gun violence occurred at beaches,…
Clear with a chilled bit of wind this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley. Beyond the domestic hard-tossed shit today, indications off those leaked intel files noted last week, peace in Ukraine seems to not be on the agenda for this year — apparently vicious war crimes will continue, however (Foreign Policy this afternoon):…
Today is the first day of Spring 2023, and also the 20th anniversary of the Iraqi invasion. (Illustration: US Marines in northern Kuwait assembling to invade Iraq; photograph found here.) How those two events combine is anyone’s guess. On March 20, 2003, the US did a bad, bad thing. And despite a shitload of people…
Sunshine and warm temps this late afternoon Friday in California’s Central Valley — another most-gorgeous day. In the opposite direction, another spin here into the upcoming 20th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq — on Monday marks the shit point where a lot of ugly history started, and the repercussions continue right into the right…
Clear skies and tons of sunshine this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a nice respite from all the rain, snow, and just plain shitty weather. The situation reportedly back to the norm on Sunday when more rain is forecast to wet-on the region again. Enjoy while we can. Beyond the horror politics…
