Last weekend in West Palm Beach, Florida the “president” claimed in a bizarre speech that in addition to being an expert on everything else, he is also an authority on wind turbines. Even though he refers to them as ‘windmills’: “I’ve studied it better than anybody I know…I never understood wind. You know, I know […]
According to a recent report published in the Washington Post, hundreds of confidential interviews with key figures involved in prosecuting the US war in Afghanistan have revealed that the American public has been consistently misled about this unwinnable war. The papers depict a conflict with vague and unachievable aims, pursued under George W Bush, Barack […]
When I was growing up, everyone had to read George Orwell’s 1984 in High School, and we were constantly warned about the horrors of such a dystopian and terrifying future world. I guess it was okay to teach about the dangers of being passive in the face of totalitarianism back when teachers could relate Winston […]
President Trump continues to claim that the DEEP STATE is somehow out to “get him.” Oh, please. I’m sorry, but if the deep state wanted to get rid of Trump they would never have allowed him to be installed as president in the first place…er, I mean “elected.” If the deep state was out to […]
This whole 737 Max fiasco is simply the most recent illustrations of Boeing’s criminality. It boggles the mind to ponder how and why these safety issues escaped regulatory review or how the aircraft were ever deemed airworthy to begin with. This could only happen in an industry afflicted by the wholesale collapse of regulation and […]
A lot of America’s current problems began with our nation’s inevitable slide into a total capitalist society, where consumption and wealth is a means unto itself. Everything else in our society, from family to culture to geopolitical affairs – must take a back seat to overwhelming greed. In the USA, people are glorified for their […]

The U.S. instigated and supported the Ukrainian coup – which was composed of […]
Well, how utterly fucking predictable! There was just no way in hell they could let Eps live to tell his sordid fucking tale. They weren’t going to give him the opportunity. The clock was ticking the minute he set foot on the tarmac in New Jersey. Here’s your proof that this whole underage sex-slave trafficking […]
Clearly, the words irony and hypocrisy don’t exist in president* tRump’s (admittedly) extremely limited vocabulary. Projection also seems to be a big thing with the president* and his fawning minions – like that national disgrace Lindsay Graham. Or maybe we should just call this phenom “Pot-calling-the-kettle-blackism”? Whatever sort of reality-based assessment we can make of […]
It’s very interesting and quite significant that Labor Secretary Alex Acosta resigned so quickly when his role in protecting billionaire Jeffrey Epstein from Federal prosecution a decade ago recently came to light. Normally these guys will fight tooth and nail and deny, deny, deny until the very end. In the past, president* Trump’s strategy would […]
