Rethugs Recruit Youth For ‘Troll Farm’ Operation. This Charlie Kirk is a threat to democracy. As is Facebook. Alaska Rethugs Pull Last-Minute Dirty Trick As Ballots Go Out. They’re feeling the heat, even in Alaska. Well. That Trump ABC Town Hall Went Well. Allegedly before a crowd of ‘undecided’ voters. Wonder if herd mentality took […]

Sanders Raises Concerns About Biden Campaign. He’s right, of course. Could the Biden campaign at least demonstrate that they’re not taking progressive voters for granted? I have visions of Goldman Sachs execs polishing up their resumes. Bloomberg To Dump $100 Mill In Florida For Biden. Mostly in digital ads in Spanish and English. Wouldn’t hurt […]

Yep. Trump Lied About Covid. Admitted It. Knows He’s Screwed. It’s pointless to mention the inhumanity and hypocrisy of his comments. What’s important is that he can’t change the subject from his criminal mismanagement of this public health crisis. Guess who Fox News blames…Lindsey Graham, for allegedly brokering the interviews. There’s even a kernel of […]

‘The Last Full Measure Of His Disgrace’. I think that this time it’s different. Pretty much everybody’s vote is locked in. But, losing support from military voters and families is a big loss for Trump. And so richly deserved. One of the most disgraceful things ever said by any President. Trump reversed himself on getting […]
