As such, nope. But they very well may be attempting to sabotage the current administration in an attempt to render a duly elected president powerless for the duration of his last term. Overly dramatic? Maybe. We’ll know by Wednesday, April 23, 2025. Yes, that’s a very specific date. It’s roughly seventy-two hours from The New York Times unsupported claim that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth violated national security by including his wife and brother on a Signal group that dealt … Continue reading “Is the New York Times Attempting a Coup?”
Tariffs: Bane, Boondoggle or Ballyhoo?
Yes. What? Oh, do you prefer ‘all of the above’? No, I will not tell you what the words mean, Whippersnapper! Isn’t that what Chat GPT is for these days? Pretending I’m not talking to a three year old… Yes, the tariffs imposed by the Trump Administration on practically the whole world are all three things. Which one to whom kinda depends on who you ask. Bane to friend and foe alike – no one likes having to pay the … Continue reading “Tariffs: Bane, Boondoggle or Ballyhoo?”
Will Trump Save the World?
No, of course not. Seriously, you have got to stop watching only action adventure movies. Well, sure, they’re the best but Man does not live by shoot ’em ups alone. Need some more fiber in that diet. No, you’re not going on a documentary diet. What kind of a fiend do you take me for? But we do need to round out your media diet so that you stop expecting that one hero will save the world. At least pay … Continue reading “Will Trump Save the World?”
Here Come the Rats: Proof that Neither Elites nor Oligarchs Rule America
Oh, settle down. I didn’t say that those rich boys weren’t powerful. They are, but they just found out that they aren’t as powerful as they thought they were. How do I know? Simple, look at how many of those guys were at Trump’s inauguration. They were all card carrying Democrats on November 5th but now they’re scrambling to get in Trump’s good graces. Brown nosing is not the sign of either an oligarch or an Illuminati. It’s a bunch … Continue reading “Here Come the Rats: Proof that Neither Elites nor Oligarchs Rule America”
Good Morning, America! How Are Ya?
Hi, I’m back. Old and cranky just needed a vacation – and some extra vitamins. Didja miss me? Figures. Oh well. So, how are you liking the new Trump administration so far? Are you convinced Trump will fix everything or that Trump will destroy the world? Neither? EXCELLENT! Don’t get me wrong, I voted for Trump all three times. Okay, I admit I held my nose the first time but the next two were because I am convinced Trump is … Continue reading “Good Morning, America! How Are Ya?”
Why Are the Democrats so Desperate?
Okay, let’s get the important stuff done first. I was wrong about the debate – it was pretty lackluster. For political junkies it had lots to chew on but normal people probably found it kinda so-so. Harris performed better than expected – a lot better – and Trump showed a couple flashes of anger. He’s more entertaining on Twitter. Can’t get ’em all right. But owning one’s mistakes is the first step to not making the same stupid ones again. … Continue reading “Why Are the Democrats so Desperate?”
