Trump’s defense: Don’t blame me, I can’t tell right from wrong

Trump is defending his Stormy Daniels related criminality by claiming that his lawyer should have told him that conspiring to pay her off in order to keep the public from finding out about the affair was wrong. The debate has therefore focused on whether Trump did, indeed, know it was wrong. I once worked on […]

A few thoughts on the future of the criminal in chief

Now that Trump has been more or less accused of a crime by his own Justice Department, we must consider where we go from here. There’s been a lot of discussion about indictments, impeachments, etc., and, at times there’s talk as if Trump’s downfall is inevitable. . Things are moving fast, and I may have this all […]

Hypocrisy ahead?

I’ve mentioned the Palmer Reporta few times in this blog, and I confess I still take a sort of guilty pleasure in checking it out on a regular basis. My overall impression is that the facts are usually accurate, though the conclusions drawn therefrom are often a little out there, although usually entertaining. Anyway, today the […]

A year ago today

I keep a journal on my Ipad, and every day it displays entries from previous years. Besides chronicling my own boring life I’ve been making note of the doings of the very stable genius. Among other things I noted the following a year ago. The quotes in the entry below are from some internet source; […]

Installment 9999 of “What if Obama had done that?”

Yesterday the delegates to the United Nations laughed at the person who currently holds the position of President of the United States. In the three papers I get each morning, it is barely mentioned, and in one the laughs are referred to as “chuckles”. Of course, Fox didn’t even let its viewers know about it. […]

Only the Trump Administration could make Iran look good

I am not partial to theocracies, no matter the creed pushed by the state in question. So I have no use for Iran. But I’m a fair minded guy, and even I can see when the Iranians have right on their side. Consider this one of the Trump Administration’s most awesome feats. They have managed to […]

I didn’t do it

The following letter was provided to CTBlue anonymously by a highly placed person in the White House who removed it from the desk of the person currently holding the office of the President of the United States, before that person could read it Most Highly Exalted Extremely Stable Genius: In case you would prefer not […]

The Impeachment Issue

There’s been a lot of back and forth lately about whether Democrats should campaign on impeachment this fall. It’s something the media brings up quite a bit, implying as they do that Democrats can’t stop talking about it. Democratic consultants meanwhile, are urging Democrats to stay away from it and concentrate solely on economic issues. […]

More of this please

Everyone in Washington knows it. Indeed, every thinking person in the country knows it, but there is among many an unspoken conspiracy to avoid talking about the fact that the man who occupies the office of the president of the United States is seriously mentally ill. We don’t need no doctor to tell us this, […]

Quotes of the day

I just finished reading a new translation of the Bhagavad-Gita, which I last read, in a different translation, back in my ultra-hippie days. For those unfamiliar with the story line, it takes place on a battlefield. The two main characters are Arjuna, a warrior, and Krishna, his charioteer, who, it turns out, is actually an avatar […]
