Biden’s feckless threat President Biden threatened to stop supplying offensive weapons to Israel if it invades Rafah. Over a million Palestinians fled there after Israel invaded northern Gaza. Both Republicans and Democrats are making much ado about this threat: Republicans are accusing Biden of betraying Israel. They’re virtue signaling by drafting legislation in a vain attempt to force… Read more.
Cohen for the prosecution Michael Cohen is a meathead. He’s so blinded by revenge that he broke his own vow of silence on Trump in less than 48 hours. Worse still, like Trump, Cohen is such a reckless narcissist, he couldn’t care less he’s undermining the prosecutor’s case. So, I fully expect him to lose his cool on the stand this week and blow… Read more.
Happy Mother’s Day is a national contrivance US President Woodrow Wilson designated the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day. But one wonders why he was the first to honor mothers in this way in May 1914. Why didn’t any of his predecessors make this proclamation to honor mothers? Perhaps Wilson was merely the first president shameless enough to exploit… Read more.
Stormy spanks Trump’s lawyer This week, porn star Stormy Daniels performed quite a snow job in court. She was the star witness for the prosecution at Trump’s hush money/election interference trial in New York. I’ll skip the salacious details. Just know that Daniels testified about their infamous hotel room tryst, which included her spanking Trump. The point is that, on… Read more.
Judge Cannon delays Trump’s trial indefinitely Judge Aileen Cannon is presiding over Donald Trump’s criminal trial on charges that he hoarded classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. It’s an open secret that Trump’s defense amounts to nothing more than delay, delay, delay. That’s because he presumes he’ll get reelected in November and could order his attorney general to dismiss this case. Judge Cannon… Read more.
LeBron forfeited the GOAT title There’s an ongoing debate about whether Michael Jordan or LeBron James is the NBA GOAT. I picked Michael years ago. There’s no denying LeBron’s talents. And they certainly make him worthy of contention. However, he forfeited all claims to this title in 2010 when he abandoned Cleveland and took his talents to Miami to chase his first… Read more.
Trump, for the defense Donald Trump is on trial for paying porn star Stormy Daniels hush money to keep their booty call under wraps before the 2016 presidential election. So, understandably, Trump thinks he knows more about the facts of this case than anyone else. The issue is that he behaves in Court as if he knows more about… Read more.
Noem misfires by boasting about killing her puppy South Dakota governor and Republican vice presidential contender Kristi Noem is all over the media promoting her forthcoming memoir, No Going Back. In it, she blithely describes shooting her “less than worthless” 14-month-old dog, Cricket, along with a “nasty and mean” family goat. Unsurprisingly, these snippets are dominating her interviews. She… Read more.
Cinco de Mayo Cinco de Mayo marks the unlikely victory of 4,000 scrappy Mexican fighters over 8,000 French soldiers on May 5, 1862. Their victory at the Battle of Puebla did not stop the French invasion of Mexico. But it boosted the morale of the Mexican fighters and became a symbol of resistance and national pride, celebrated… Read more.
Wikipedia describes Civil War as follows: A 2024 dystopian film written and directed by Alex Garland. It follows a team of journalists traveling across the United States during a civil war fought between an authoritarian federal government and several regional factions. Naturally, it’s all too easy to envision a new Trump administration as that “authoritarian federal government,” with… Read more.
