Bring it on

So, the Republicans have initiated the impeachment process, all of them voting to do so, despite the fact that they have no evidence of wrongdoing. All the so-called “moderate” Republicans went along with it, though you can bet whatever part of your body you like that they did so unwillingly, but they all feel the […]

A Republican with Principles! (An oxymoron, I know)

Who says that our fascist overlord wannabes have no principles? Well, I’ve probably said it, but look, there are definitely exceptions, and I firmly believe all the other election denial liars should follow this Arizona woman’s principled example: Liz Harris, recently elected to represent Legislative District 13, issued a statement on her campaign website saying, […]

Logic 101

Now here’s a guy,”chiropractor, acupuncturist, and medical researcher” Bryan Ardis, who has used his brain, almost like Sherlock Holmes, to make a logical deduction from the facts available to him. He has deduced that COVID was developed and injected into the world by the Catholic Church, and his evidence is airtight. He had proven, beyond […]

Mike Lindell steps in it again

I’m no longer practicing law, but I still can’t help but feel just a twinge of pity for whatever lawyer is representing Mike Lindell in the various libel suits that have been filed against him. Only a twinge, mind you, because he or she is probably as loathsome as Lindell. The guy just keeps making […]

Book Report

My professorial son gave me a book for Christmas: Anna Della Subin’s Accidental Gods. His book choices tend to seem a bit like reading assignments, but they’re usually interesting, and this book certainly is that. It is an examination of the tendency of some humans to bestow godhood, or to worship as gods, ordinary humans. […]

It’s contagious!

I thought this kind of crazy was confined to Republicans here in the States, but apparently it’s as contagious as the latest COVID variant: A British member of Parliament claimed this week that men are being forced into committing crimes because fictional male characters like James Bond and Doctor Who are being replaced by women. […]

Not the Onion

A fairly frequent occurrence. As I scroll through the unread folder on my RSS reader, I come upon a post whose title is both totally absurd, and given the current state of this nation, weirdly believable. Often, but not always, it turns out to be the Onion. And while that is a sure sign that […]

Dying for the cause

We were up in Vermont this weekend, and while I was there, I thought that if I could overcome my laziness, when I got home I might try to make a list of all the talk radio types (all of whom are right wing, of course) who have died of COVID. Seems it’s already been […]

The Pillow Man Speaks

Mike Lindell, the MyPillow guy, says the Supreme Court is going to put the genius back in office by July. He has inside information, he says, quite likely of the same quality as the information he claims to have about the voting machine companies. The Pillow Man, along with all the other things he doesn’t […]

More stuff you couldn’t make up

I frequent a blog called Above the Law, which features articles about my former profession. I think it’s fair to say the site has a slightly leftward slant, but then one can say that about anyone who is rational these days. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry about the posts here and here […]
