A not so surprising development

Tuesday, June 11, 2024

Trump’s minions are now laying the groundwork for pulling out of the upcoming debates. Hannity is even making the risible claim that Biden will be so “jacked up” that the competition will be unfair. I suggested last month, when the debates were first announced: The Democrats, who rarely act in concert to push a point, […]

Something happening here, what it is ain’t exactly clear

Tuesday, June 4, 2024

Well, maybe it is clear. Just wondering how much attention this will get in the mainstream: Nine witnesses in the criminal cases against former President Donald Trump have received significant financial benefits, including large raises from his campaign, severance packages, new jobs, and a grant of shares and cash from Trump’s media company. The benefits […]

A look into the future

Wednesday, May 15, 2024

The Biden and Trump campaigns have allegedly agreed to a couple of debates.. The odds of Trump actually debating, after having agreed to do so, are pretty much the same as the odds were that he would testify at his trial, after having said he would do so. A man who can’t stay awake while […]

Beaten to the punch

Monday, March 18, 2024

Gone are the days when I felt it my duty to post here every day. I often get an idea for a post, and figure I’ll write it up the next day. But alas, sometimes the next day is too late. Yesterday I read this post over at the Palmer Report. Again, before I go […]

The experts agree…

Sunday, February 25, 2024

Okay, I admit that I still get some guilty pleasure reading the Palmer Report. While the conclusions they draw don’t always flow from the facts, the facts they report are usually just that: facts. Today they relate another fact, also reported over at Hullabloo: You don’t have to be a medical expert in order to […]

You heard it here first

Monday, February 19, 2024

In what should come as no surprise a panel of experts polled by the Los Angeles Times opines that while Biden is a respectable 16th best in the list of presidents, Trump is dead last: Trump’s position at the bottom of our rankings, meanwhile, puts him behind not only Buchanan and Johnson but also such […]

For Republicans, Trump’s Dementia may be a plus

Saturday, January 20, 2024

It is becoming increasingly clear that the very stable genius may not be stable or a genius, and may in fact be slipping (or should that be “plunging”) into dementia. He recently blamed Nikki Haley for failing to do something about the attackers on January 6th, clearly mixing her up with Nancy Pelosi. This is […]

Shocking news: Trump refuses to lie! Or does he?

Tuesday, January 9, 2024

I was truly shocked when I read this. Never before, in his entire life, has Donald Trump refused to lie, but he just did! President Joe Biden’s campaign knocked former President Donald Trump on the third anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack for refusing to sign an Illinois loyalty oath that says he […]

Is this really a big deal?

Wednesday, November 15, 2023

Multiple other media outlets I’ve read seem to agree with Truthout that Former Trump Lawyer’s Revelation is ‘Devestating for Trump, Legal Experts Say. This refers to the leaked proffer testimony of Jenna Ellis summarized as follows: Former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis told prosecutors in Fulton County, Ga., that a senior aide to the former president […]

New trends in lawyering

Tuesday, November 14, 2023

I’ve only been retired from the law for a few years, but it is becoming clear to me that the practice of law has changed dramatically since my days before the bench. In the olden days, if you were taking a legal position in a case, you would try to convince the judge that your […]
