Conscience Takes Over
The primary season is almost over, and GOP members of the House and Senate are now free to vote with their conscience instead of being afraid to be primaried out by Trump’s MAGA crazies. This was evident, yesterday, when 18 House Republicans stood up to Trump and voted to provide more funding and weaponry to…

Checkmate
Donald, how are you at playing chess? I think you’re more of a checkers guy, aren’t you? I know you’ve been acting or trying to act like a king since your second coronation, I mean inauguration. You have faced no kings protests by millions of Americans. You really don’t give a crap about that do…

So Much Bad News
This is what we all woke up to this morning. All of this happened, either yesterday or overnight. The Iran – US ceasefire is heading into the dumpster, with more attacks by both sides last night.

Counting The Ways

Can You Trust This Man?
How many times has Donald Trump said that a deal is imminent? Each time, Wall Street falls for it with index still going up and big oil falls for it with prices going down until the next flare up. This week, Trump pushed the idea that negotiations were finalized, and an agreement just waiting to…

Yet Again
An agreement was even closer this time. Just a couple words holding the agreement up. Oil prices went down. The Dow again went up. Peace was at hand after 12 weeks of a supposed four week war. This time it was really gonna happen even if it’s just a one page memorandum of understanding, it…

Not So Easy
Back, in February 2022, Vladimir Putin decided to invade Ukraine. I still remember pictures of Russian tanks lining up on a Ukrainian highway on their way to Kyiv. Kind of a stupid move because they were easy prey for drones. It is now four years later and Russia is facing drone attacks from Ukraine, even…

Trump Party Now
If there was any doubt, it has been quashed, the last couple of days. The Republican Party is now the Trump party, without question. Do you remember when Trump said that he could walk down fifth Avenue, shoot someone and get away with it? He is literally doing that now. His administration has set aside…

Like Clockwork
Heard this before, and before, and before, and… We were getting ready to do a very major attack tomorrow. I put it off for a little while — hopefully, maybe, forever — but possibly for a little while, because we’ve had very big discussions with Iran, and we’ll see what they amount to.” The supposed…
