“Good” Tribal v “Bad”
Here’s a stone cold fact: all humans are tribal. Tribalism’s a survival instinct for social creatures like us. We need to feel connected to others in order to be happy within ourselves. Even a raging egomaniac like Donald Trump needs everyone else’s approval (or disapproval) in order to be. Take the rest of us away…

It’s Time Democrats Get Out Of Their Abusive Relationship
It sucks being in a co-dependent relationship. America needs to admit a terrible truth to itself: we are stuck in a long-term abusive relationship. Frankly, it’s making us crazy. We’re acting out in all sorts of dark ways. The data says that, mostly, it’s Republicans who are “acting out” – using violence instead words to…

Hey, America, Don’t Forget: Republicans Are A Minority Party — By A Lot
Americans either can’t bear talking about politics or it’s what we obsess on. Politics are fraught wherever you go — in our time especially — but politics are especially fraught here in America. The divide seems more intractable than ever. It is. The way our news media reports it, America is split 50-50 between two…

Republicans Defend Themselves The Way Bullies Do; It’s Not A Coincidence
Listening to Trump or Moscow Mitch McConnell bray about how Democrats should have talked to their witnesses first before even thinking of sending Articles of Impeachment to the Senate for prosecution — tripe repeated via tweet by Donald Trump — one has to remember: the whole reason Democrats HAVEN’T talked to all those witnesses is…

Dear American News Media: Here’s How You Can Tell It AIN’T About “Politics”…
Let’s cut to the END of the chase, shall we? Both sides DO NOT “do it”. Both sides DO NOT commit TREASON in order to hold onto power and impose a permanent state of minority rule. Both sides don’t do it because one side doesn’t HAVE to. They can sell their ideas to America. That…

There Is Only One Answer – Election 2016 Must Be Completely Voided
It’s taken almost 3 years for the Main Stream News Media to broadcast things that, when loons like me used to say them, got eye rolls so hard they nearly burst out of the heads rolling them. Russia — or any other bad actor — COULD ABSOLUTELY hack into voting machines — in real time…

Donald Trump Is The American Caligula… That’s Not A Good Thing
Not A Revelation: Donald Trump thinks he’s King… or, in German — “Kaiser” — the Germanification of the name “Caesar”. But Donald Trump is such an incompetent, that he can’t even get being a “Caesar” right. He’s gone and modeled himself after another Roman emperor — Caligula. We keep reaching for the words to describe…

America’s Love Affair With “Stupid”, Part III: When Democrats Get Stupid, There’s Nothing Stupider…
Not a revelation: smart people are as capable of profound stupidity as the profoundly stupid. The instant even an Einstein-level genius begins to view the world with limited or diminished perspective, it’s just a matter of time before they turn as deeply, utterly, right-down-to-his-tighty-whities stupid as Texas’ Louie Gohmert — the (certifiably) Stupidest Man In…

2020 Will Be Different BECAUSE So Many Women Are Running
Our Main Stream News Media sure love a horse race. I guess it’s because horse races are easy to report. Who’s the favorite (according to the odds makers)? Who’re the jockeys? Then – when the race gets run — the winner is almost always easy to identify. A simple story for simple minds to tell.…
