Two stories paint a dismal picture of the good old USA. The first is a study that shows that while life expectancy around the world decreased in 2020 due to COVID-19, most countries were able to reverse the trend and increase life expectancy by 2021, while the US continued to drop precipitously, down to the […]
I have nothing to add to this cartoon: Why does anyone believe anything Tucker Carlson says? Not to mention the other “entertainers” on Fox News.
In 2008, the dot.com meltdown cratered a bunch of tech companies. In response, Obama got Dodd-Frank passed, to make sure it wouldn’t happen again. Then Donald Trump got elected, and he repealed almost all of Dodd-Frank. Now, the same thing that happened in 2008 happened again. If Dodd-Frank were still law, the Silicon Valley Bank […]
Former VP Mike Pence is not the first member of the administration of Donald Trump to attack their former boss, but he is the first presidential contender to do so. At the annual Gridiron dinner for journalists, Pence said: History will hold Donald Trump accountable for Jan. 6. Make no mistake about it: What happened […]
I’m sure most of you know about the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit against Fox “News” Corporation, which claims that FNC defamed Dominion by spreading lies that Dominion’s voting machines deliberately switched Trump votes to Biden votes. You probably even saw the recent news that everyone at FNC — including management from the top on down, […]
After the GOP got baited by Biden, then this? They just can’t help themselves.
I have not watched a State of the Union speech for a long time, but for some reason I felt like watching Joe Biden’s speech tonight. I’m really glad I did. If you didn’t see it, you should. It starts off a little slow, but gets going soon. It had just the right amount of […]
One might even say that it is ballooning! Ever since the Chinese weather/spy balloon was sighted over the US and getting media attention, Republicans have been attacking Biden for how he handled it. There’s just one problem. This is not the first time that Chinese balloons have drifted through US airspace. In fact, there were […]
I fear that US politics is so crazy, that most voters have just tuned completely out. Not everyone is hurt by all this chaos, some thrive on it. You might have had problems affording gasoline, but Exxon Mobil had their most profitable year ever in 2022. Donald Trump did no campaigning until last weekend, instead […]
The first Randy Rainbow song of this year, a parody of “Master of the House” from Les Misérables. Not safe for work! An added bonus for true Randy Rainbow fans, here is Randy giving a speech accepting the Making a Difference Award 3 months ago.
And now, classified documents have been discovered at the residence of Mike Pence, despite the fact that Pence claimed he didn’t have any. Now, don’t get me wrong. It is not a crime to accidentally or inadvertently have some classified documents show up where they shouldn’t be. The crime is to take them intentionally, or […]
Lying Rep. George Santos is the humor gift that keeps on giving. Rep. Bill Foster (D-IL) is an actual recipient of the Wilson Prize for High-Energy Particle Accelerator Physics. Foster welcomes the newest member of the House committee on Science, Space and Technology.
CNN catches Republican Congressman Byron Donalds being completely hypocritical. The replies are pretty hilarious, too! Turns out that Donalds is also a criminal. In 1997, he was arrested for dealing marijuana, and in 2000, he pleaded guilty to felony bribery (as part of a scheme to defraud a bank). And of course, he was one […]
Actually, it is WAY more than twice. One thing about the recent Speaker of the House election that seems to have been largely ignored (including by most media outlets) is that the MAGA 20 keep claiming that they are fiscal conservatives who want to reduce the federal deficit. This is a baldfaced lie. First, let’s […]
