This “A Closer Look” from Late Night with Seth Meyers was posted on Thanksgiving Day (Nov 23, 2023), but I was too busy to post it right away.

One of the Very Stupidest People

Lawrence O’Donnell points out that Donald Trump, who always seems to think he is the smartest person in the room, uttered the stupidest thing he could possibly say during his fraud case in New York, and incriminated not just himself, but also his children. Which absolutely destroys his defense, and guarantees that the Trump Organization […]

Here We Go Again

You know, it doesn’t have to be like this. I recently returned from a trip that included Rwanda, which just a couple of decades ago was in the middle of a horrible genocide. Now, only a few years later, Rwanda has become one of the most progressive countries in Africa, the civil war is over, […]

Jim Jordan is a Jerk-off!

The more you read about Jim Jordan, the worse he looks. You probably know that he was a founding member of the “Freedom Caucus”, which is the Republican group that is keeping the House of Representatives deadlocked. He was an attack dog for president Donald Trump, including being a key ally in Trump’s effort to […]

Right versus Left

I don’t really understand why Joe Biden’s favorability ratings are so low. I think he has been doing a good job as president. In fact, I’ve been watching him since he was in the Senate. Yes, there are a few things he’s done that I disagreed with. For example, voting for the Defense of Marriage […]

Prescience

On May 3, 2016, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), made the following prediction: “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed…….and we will deserve it.”

The Second Amendment

Yes, the right wing, the same people who claim that the Second Amendment guarantees the absolute right to bear arms, now want to lock up Hunter Biden because he purchased a gun (which he never used) when he was taking illegal drugs. What I want to know is how many gun-owning right-wing-nuts have ever used […]

Two Trials

This short clip provides some interesting information about one of TFG’s trials and also about Hunter Biden’s trial. I haven’t seen either of these mentioned much, but they are very significant.

I Know You Are, But What am I?

The Wall Street Journal has an article that doesn’t bode well for our democracy: Many Republicans refuse to acknowledge Joe Biden’s 2020 victory, saying they have lost faith in the electoral system. They also have doubts that 2024 will deliver a legitimate winner, while Democrats worry that Republicans will contest an outcome that doesn’t go […]

Trump Indicted Third Time

As everyone probably already knows, Donald Trump was indicted again by a grand jury, this time regarding the insurrection that happened on January 6, 2021. Jack Smith held a very short press conference (under 3 minutes), where he summarized the four counts against the former president. He also said that everyone should read the 45-page […]

Grift Right?

Grift in politics is nothing new, but in the last few years has blossomed into widespread corruption and lies. The biggest flood came from Donald Trump, who during his tenure in the White House told an estimated 30,573 lies (which comes out to over 20 whoppers a day). Trump turned on a spigot of grift, […]
