Don’t watch this video!
This video has no nutritional value whatsoever; zero calories, zero carbs. It’s nothing but Sean Hannity, a Republican propagandist, and James Carville, a Democratic propagandist, trading talking points. It’s pure partisan pugilism; two guys playing “gotcha.” When Hannity bla[...]
Is Kamala Harris leading a movement?
There’s talk in the air of Harris being a “movement” politician (I’ll get into what that is), of being a “hinge of history,” according to a Politico article here. That’s a concept usually associated with the term “transformative leader.” The real[...]

Trump complains of personal attacks
After listening to the Obamas speak at the Democratic convention, Trump had three words for them. “Don’t get personal,” he said (read story here). From the guy who led “lock her up!” chants. The expanded version goes, “You know, they always say, sir, please stick[...]
Project 2025 hates dog parks
Kevin Roberts (photo, left), Project 2025’s godfather, hates dog parks (see story here). So does J. D. Vance, Trump’s 2024 running mate (see story here). Roberts wrote a book about Project 2025 he won’t release before the election, lest it hurt Trump’s chances. However, media[...]
No jury would convict him
The GOP’s impeachment probe of Biden sputtered to a halt Monday, out of gas. (Click on image to activate.) Republicans aimed to “showcase that President Biden abused his power and was at the center of a corrupt plot to enrich his family,” The Hill reported on August 19, 2024 (read [...]

Attention-seeking Trump posts photoshopped Harris crowd and fake Taylor Swift endorsement
