Let’s Remember What “Fake News” REALLY Was
I‘ve seen it every time control of the White House changes hands. The people who only just started paying attention as of the most recent election are “shocked, shocked!” to discover something terrible about the outgoing administration or politics at large that previous administrations were FAR more guilty of, but they didn’t pay attention to […]

Why the Electoral College Should Wait Before Voting
Lately, I’ve noticed I can’t shake the feeling Russia is actually *shaping* the Trump Administration. I don’t mean they are simply reaping the rewards of having an admirer of Putin defending them as Trump prepares to take the White House. I mean that the subject of “Russia” keeps popping up in places I never expected. Case in point: When […]

The CEO President. THIS is Trump’s idea of “The Best People”?

As the old saying goes: “Once you hit rock bottom, there’s no place to go but up.” There are actually some positives to come out of this mind-numbing election result: 10 Positives to come […]

Happy Halloween. And with the latest round of “scandals” ping-ponging between the candidates each week (Trump’s sexual misconduct, now Hillary’s emails), the more I dread what’s in store for us over the next four years (notice I did NOT say “four to eight” years.) Last February, despite being an enthusiastic Bernie supporter, I conceded that if the choice […]

Could 1990 Texas Governors Race Foretell a Surprise Win for Hillary There?
The 1990 race for governor of Texas bears an eerie similarity to the Clinton/Trump race as the two are now statistically tied to win the Lone Star State, possibly foretelling a surprise Clinton upset.

BREAKING: Major Party Candidates are Duplicitous Frauds. Oh, and we’re all screwed
There’s an old saying that “character” is who you are in private when no one is looking. Last week, WikiLeaks released thousands of emails belonging to Clinton campaign advisor John Podesta revealing (among other things) that what Clinton was telling cheering fans at her rallies or denying in those contentious televised debates was not what she […]
