How many presidents have been in office since 1945? Fourteen. How many have been in power? Zero. Heads of state in the US serve a necessary purpose and it has little to do with power. Mostly a focal point for Americans to rally around when it comes to natural disasters, school shootings or war. But […]

Joe Nowhere
Hoist your glass, hum a few bars of “So long it’s been good to know you. Elvis (aka Joe Biden) has left the building. As he departs stage left, democratic pols and main stream media perennially in the tank for the dems along with befuddled celebs jump into action. As they sprint to the podium […]
Kamala: New Boss Same as the Old Boss
Hot off the press, U.S. president Joe Biden finally succumbed to the inevitable and dimly recognized what everyone else not only in America but worldwide have known for two years: one term of a demented president in the (self-described) most powerful country in the world is more than enough. Game over for Joe Biden. Who’s […]
Unfree Speech and Unhinged Spying: Your Government at Work
“Under the provisions of Title 2 of the 1950 Internal Security Act also known as the McCarran Act, the resident of the United States of America is still authorized without further approval by congress to determine an event of insurrection within the United States… The president is then authorized toapprehend and detain each person for […]
Do Lies Matter? Ask Fourteen U.S. Presidents
The verdict is in and it’s unanimous in certain quarters —like the mainstream media, democrat officials and elected politicians, out of work democratic politicians (Claire McCaskill is one), lefty think tanks and pundits— Donald Trump is disqualified from becoming president. Why? Because he’s a liar (the more earnest ones add pathological for extra oomph). Post […]
Progressives Make Merry While Democrats Set the World on Fire
The silly season is upon us as November approaches, and the rhetoric from both sides goes from simmer to
boiling. For those of you who still believe that progressives hold the key to righting the ship of state, it appears that train has left the station with
nary a progressive politician onboard. Here’s their message to the faithful.
Read it and weep: “With our support and voice, progressives may persuade and enable President Biden to achieve more progressive policy objectives during his
second term and prevent a fascist takeover.” Wait a minute, wasn’t that his mandate for the first term? As far as the eye can see the Biden foreign policy
gang has managed to destroy Ukraine, is complicit in the ongoing genocide in Gaza, and has stirred up a hornet’s nest with its troop deployment within
striking distance of China. At home the situation is equally dire — privatized healthcare making the U.S. the most expensive and least effective healthcare
system in the world, the cost of a college education spiraling out of control ($100,000 annually for some colleges). No surprise then that undergraduate
college enrollment has dropped 8% from 2019 to 2022, with declines even after the pandemic hullabaloo faded. Then there’s 43.2 million students coping with $1.6
trillion of student debt “owed” to a greedy bunch of banks, private equity companies and sadly even their own government. In the richest country in the
world, 38 million Americans are living below the poverty line, the highest overall poverty rate among advanced economies. Adding another notch to their
belt, Americans surpass the rest of the well-to-do world in income inequality. Worse still by early 2023, 14% of U.S. children went to bed hungry. Will a second
Biden administration address these critical problems and many others bedeviling our lives? It seems likely that a second Biden term will only compound the
catastrophic mess of the first —more war, more foreign aid bloopers, littlehelp for the 78% of Americans who are living paycheck to paycheck [Payroll.org].
