One would think that after 2 &1/2 years of bombings and missile strikes in Lebanon and Gaza, and starting a war in Iran, Israel would have run out of arms. But that is not the case. Thanks to American largesse, Israel's supply of bombs and missies remains limitless, resulting in thousand…
Watching History Channel’s Tom Hanks World War II, the glaring observation is that inaction is fatal. During the late 1930’s, Western European leaders, abetted by the United States, ignored the actions of Germany, Japan, and Italy, actually excusing and permitting their vile actions. By 1938…
Mike Johnson brags about the Republican core principles:
Trump: “I’m not going to start a war. I’m going to stop wars.”
I wonder at Trump’s grades in charm school. He did flunk Polite, Courtesy, and Gallantry. However, Trump is thought to have gone all the way through grade school. He says. But his vocabulary selection goes no further than that, so that sows doubt about his grasp of the merits of education. I…
Voter's re-districting, political mapping, population voters identifications maps, gendering, call it what ever term you want it's not right what politics is doing to the PEOPLE VOTE. As it's shown on front page in the citizens newspaper of May 15 issue shows a person carrying a sign stating…

Jeff Bezos said the top 1% pay a large share of federal income taxes. Technically, this is true, and entirely beside the point.
I had an interesting experience the other week. I never realized my Subaru Outback could take $65 worth of gas. I couldn't help but think about those people on a tight budget who have decide between groceries and gas. So far we have paid over 40 billion extra dollars in fuel costs. Meanwhile…
The administration’s current “slush fund” diversion advances its overarching policy objective. Since returning in January 2025, Trump has issued 261 executive orders, 77 memoranda, and 144 proclamations as of May, covering immigration, tariffs, environmental rollbacks, national security, and…

A recent breaking report reveals that Trump has made, during his presidency, 59,564 false claims. That is 108 falsehoods a day. Obviously I can't vouch for the validity of this study but if its even close it reveals a human who lies almost constantly. You or I couldn't make a decision to beg…
