Congressional Sexism?

Some people have started to notice something interesting. All attention was focused on John McCain as he made a dramatic return to the Senate after being diagnosed with cancer, giving a speech that received a standing ovation, and then voting against the Obamacare repeal.

What We Have Here is a Failure to Communicate!

Donald Trump is replacing everyone in the White House who is not his relative with really bad caricatures from B-movies. Either that, or some horrific reality show where they really do kill people. Kudos to the NY Post for actually running this cover and tweeting “In the latest episode of ‘White House Survivor’, the West […]

Innocent of Information

Conservative George Will has a lovely and hilarious opinion piece in the Washington Post. I really do recommend that you go read the whole thing, but I’ll include a few paragraphs to entice you. One warning: you will probably need a dictionary. Will’s claim is that Donald Trump is actually something that the nation did […]

Night of Irony

Late last night, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell introduced a bill that nobody had read (or even seen before). Then he brought the bill up for a vote this morning at 1am. Seriously. I’ll probably be using that word a few times in this rant. But it gets even crazier. Nobody liked this law. It […]

Shiny Object

© Barry Deutsch Why did Donald Trump lash out against transgendered soldiers on Twitter? After all, during the presidential campaign he made it clear that he didn’t care one way or another about transgendered issues. And Trump’s tweets came out of nowhere, as he never even bothered to talk to the military before he tweeted […]

[Jokes from Jul 10, 2017] At this weekend’s G-20 summit, President Trump and Vladimir Putin had a private two-and-a-half hour meeting.

Tired?

© Scott Stantis Donald Trump keeps attacking his own Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, complaining that Sessions should not have recused himself from investigating Russia and that Sessions should be spending more time prosecuting Hilary Clinton. I guess Trump is admitting that he somehow didn’t appoint the best people (except that nothing is ever Trump’s fault). […]

Late Night Political Humor

[Jokes from Jun 29, 2017] I’m going to say something I didn’t think was possible anymore: I am shocked by something Donald Trump said. I thought, by now, that my soul had calcified into a crouton.

Bad Boys, Whatcha Gonna Do?

© Ruben Bolling Remember, it isn’t a crime when the president does it, or someone does it for him. I have a theory about this, I call it the “good/bad syndrome”. It is the idea that there are two types of people: good guys and bad guys. It doesn’t matter what anyone does. If they […]
