The Russian Investigation

The Russian investigation is in full swing and Putin’s Anointed One has already publicly incriminated himself several times. Many of his cabinet and close family members have likely committed perjury at the very least. tRump disagrees with all 17 US intelligence agencies that the Russians interfered in the 2016 Presidential election. Attorney general Sessions had […]

Nazis: Punch them in the face!

The fallback position of fascists and Nazis is always to create an imaginary enemy. In this case let’s call them the “Alt-left” and then let’s blame them for protesting against the Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Let’s blame them for having the shit beaten out of them and for getting in the way of that […]

My take on the Transgender ban

Anyone DUMB ENOUGH to want to join the US military should be allowed to do so. Simple as that. I mean, what’s the logic at work here: “When I’m killing babies and blowing up hospitals I don’t want no transgender people around me! Get ‘em outta here! They lower morale! And they remind me of […]

Gaming The System

Every single “policy” devised by Team Trump will prove disastrous: cutting corporate taxes even further; repealing the Affordable Care Act; favoring coal over renewable energy; gutting the EPA, the FDA the NEA and the State Dept; pulling out of the Paris Climate Accords – all of these things will be a disaster for mankind.

Fake News

Americans need to get over the myth that we have a “free press” in the USA. The free press has been gone for a very long time. All US media – even many ‘indie’ media sources – are owned by the same six corporations. Americans also need to understand that main-stream media (MSM) is controlled […]

The Voyeur

A revelation: The preoccupation of An unrepentant concubine; The parallel exploitation Taken from the situation Outside the norms of inter-personal relations The aspirations of a myopic swooner; An innocent occupation With the exception of guilt And shadow puppets; the Personification of the victim – That hallowed standard

Still trying to wrap my head around this…

Under the cover of the Constitution and whatever civil rights we still have, the GOP – in cahoots with the religious fundamentalists – have a clearly enunciated goal of supporting male supremacy and white nationalism married to a reactionary religious / fascist theocracy. Think Nazism for the modern age: same difference only with slightly less-cool […]
