Dear Mike Pence: Shut The Flaming Hell Up
Mike Pence thinks he lives in God’s grace. To a degree, he’s right. He’s living in something’s grace because we all still think of him as something other than a traitor! Make no mistake: Mike Pence is every bit the traitor Donald Trump is. And Donald Trump is, first and foremost a traitor. But then,…

Let A Jury Have It!
American justice is still a work in progress. Once we finish flushing white corruption from it (if Donald Trump represents anything, it’s white corruption) the rule of law will finally have a chance to flourish. I believe it will because a diverse America will keep an eagle eye on it. One of the clever bits…

Damned But Not Doomed
There are times when America really does seem doomed. That is, our democratic republic seems doomed to finish its run atop history’s ash heap. A great idea kneecapped by racism, greed and just plain stupidity. The GOP‘s relentless attempts – any which way they can – to stop all oversight, investigation and prosecution of their…

The Republican Party Is A Monstrous Ponzi Scheme Of Treason

Prosecuting Trump Is NOT A “Hard Decision”
To prosecute Trump or not to. Is that really a question? Black, meet white. Doing nothing in the face of evil and injustice is the same as being evil and unjust. It’s just more cowardly. We don’t expect any Republican (other than Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger – both now out of office) to do…

The good news? Within that fix is our fix – the one we need to solve America’s intractable gun problem. The…

Why ChatGPT Can’t Ever Really Be Funny
There’s a reason comedy is hard. It’s pretty easy to make people laugh. Even a robot can do that. AI can indeed produce hilarious “comedy” that seems to do everything a human stand-up does. That’s an illusion however. Worse, it’s more an abuse of comedy than comedy itself. You kinda feel that while watching it.…

Our News Media Is A False Equivalence Factory
America’s news media is lost. Last night epitomized that fact. Joe Biden delivered a remarkable State Of The Union Address including the part where he swatted down repeated Republican heckling. Fact: both sides don’t do that – heckle a POTUS while they’re delivering the SOTU. Both sides don’t shout out “You lie!” during it. But,…
