Slipping Towards?
Some days, one wonders. The situation in Gaza is getting every day. No electricity, water or fuel for the last month. Not totally true. Some supplies are trickling in. Not even close to what is needed. Hospitals closing down Patients dying. Hamas tunnels being found under hospitals. Hamas using hospitals and patients within as shields.…

Little Don The Con
One of the uglier sagas in American Congressional history will hopefully come to an end soon, with the expulsion of George Santos. Congressional approval now stands at 11%. That is no surprise given the Republican clown show that has unfolded, over the past year, with Santos playing a role in it. The House Ethics Committee…

Veep
Attribution to Gage Skidmore, Surprise, Arizona There was a show on HBO a few years back starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She was a self-centered scheming narcissist who ended up being chosen as Vice President and eventually became President. It was a comedy. No way such a thing could happen in real life. Well, we are in…
