You Might Think That’s OK

Did I mention I’m with Adam Schiff? Adam goes on to ignore them. This is the cut from his channel, I didn’t find anything else that seemed primary but perhaps you can navigate C-SPAN better than I can.

Chuck Schumer’s Erotic Fan Fiction Web Page

Am I Sam? I do not like cowards in either House. I do not like whitewashing a louse. Bottomless Pinocchio, is a Traitor and has to go. Ok, now you see why I don’t write Children’s Books and am a poor Ted Geisel substitute. This piece depressed me because Sam seems to be buying into …

Another Battle In The Republican War On The Poor

Republicans can’t destroy the safety net. So they’re making it an instrument of misery. By Paul Waldman, Washington Post March 27, 2019 Americans, it turns out, think very highly of Medicaid and were extremely resistant to the Republicans’ idea of kicking millions of people off the program. They haven’t stopped trying, but in the absence …

It Ain’t Over ‘Til It’s Over

Reports of the demise of the Mueller Russia Treason Plot Investigation are somewhat exaggerated. The case against Trump’s corruption will continue to build By Greg Sargent, Washington Post March 27, 2019 One glaring analytical error we’re seeing in the coverage of Robert S.

Not Your Grandfather’s Economy

Cheap Electrical Power is something we take for granted that, were it otherwise, would drive business and consumer economic incentives in entirely different directions. A major argument from pro-Carbon Dinosaurs (in addition to complete denial about Global Warming and misrepresentation about reliability) is that it’s cheaper. Not so much anymore. It’s cheaper to replace most …

Brexit: How’s That Working Out For You?

The U.S. Senate and House operate under their own arcane sets of Rules that are ratified at the beginning of every Congress (not that they can’t be changed by a simple majority), the British Parliament has customs and procedures. Ours were the basis of Robert’s Rules of Order but as Henry Martyn Robert was primarily …

*ucker Carlson

First of all, it stands fot “T”. Second of all, my boy Cody Johnston is much more liberal with the censor bleep (on YouTube of all places) than John Oliver is on HBO (Was that just yesterday? It seems a lifetime. Ehh, Blog Years). Since this is about Carlson I can hardly recommend it as …
