Thursday, May 31, 2018

Little notice. Today is the first birthday of “covfefe”; still awaiting a definition.

Something fishy here

Thursday, May 24, 2018

A few days ago I drafted a post, but I ultimately decided not to post it, due to the fact that the point I was trying to assert, that Elliot Broidy had been handsomely paid for taking the fall for Trump’s affair with yet another Playboy bunny, which affair had led to an abortion. Here’s […]

A little trip down memory lane

Thursday, May 17, 2018

I keep a journal, in which I catalog the trivial events of my day and, since January of 2017, on most days I document some of the atrocities emanating from Washington. The app I use automatically displays entries from the same date in past years. It’s actually a good feature, since it’s sort of fun […]

Quit meets quo

Tuesday, May 15, 2018

Yesterday I vowed to do better in cataloging the genius’s criminality, and like manna from heaven, here’s proof of yet another impeachable offense. When the genius tweeted that he was going to help save thousands of Chinesejobs, it set all our spider senses tingling, didn’t it? You just knew there was some sort of corruption involved. The […]

What I wouldn’t give for a real satisfying wallow

Monday, April 16, 2018

In my younger years, I spent many happy hours wallowing in Watergate, and I must confess that today’s news about Sean Hannity revived those happy feelings, if only for a while. But that was then, and this is now, and no thinking person can sustain a good wallow. This is mainly because back in the days of […]

Bolton v. Putin?

Monday, April 9, 2018

It was almost exactly a year ago today that Trump bombed Syria, earning plaudits from the likes of Fareed Zakaria, who famously declared that Trump had become president. It quickly became known that Trump and/or his people had given the Russians (and therefore the Syrians) a heads up so far as the target was concerned, […]

Some more legal musing on Stormy and her pals

Thursday, March 22, 2018

Over at Hullabaloo, digby joins Greg Sargent in speculating that Stormy and Trump’s other accusers may spell real trouble for him. Sargent notes that: As CNN’s Collinson points out, this means Trump may be facing a period of pretrial discovery and possibly a deposition, which “could put Trump in a perilous position. I haven’t seen […]

Told you so, redux

Friday, February 23, 2018

I just want to point out that I’m over a year ahead of Mother Jones. Who is the worst president? The lowest ranked presidents are normally Franklin Pierce (helped cause the Civil War) James Buchanan (helped cause the Civil War), William Henry Harrison (refused to wear a coat during his inauguration, died), and Andrew Johnson […]

A few thoughts about Michael Cohen

Wednesday, February 14, 2018

Donald Trump’s fixer lawyer has admitted that he paid porn star Stormy Daniels for her silence during the presidential campaign: Cohen stated: “Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed me for the payment, either directly or indirectly. The payment to Ms. Clifford […]

No one can make me watch

Monday, January 29, 2018

Tomorrow night we will see if the Very Stable Genius can act presidential, which he can prove merely by reading from a teleprompter without wetting his pants or foaming at the mouth. Wedo not yet know whether he will meet the challenge, but if he does, we can expect that the New York Times and […]
