Presidents’ Day: it’s about the sales, man Alas, “Presidents’ Day” has become just another jingoistic way to induce Americans to shop for cars and mattresses.

Because he and Meghan ended up giving the royal wave as they glided past disabled veterans in a golf cart. It was a spectacle… Read more.
A toxic mix of ignorance, insecurity, and narcissism explains Trump’s dogma on tariffs. He thrives on blind loyalty, demanding agreement even when everyone knows he’s wrong.

Jill Biden embodied the Eagles’ quiet strength and effortless grace In a rematch of Super Bowl LVII, the Philadelphia Eagles soared over the Kansas City Chiefs, defeating them in vengeful fashion 40-22. Frankly, this game made me wish the NFL had a mercy rule. Because the Eagles made all the hype about a Chiefs historic… Read more.
President Trump delivering the sermon at a national prayer breakfast is like the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan delivering the keynote address at the NAACP convention.
