Kamala Harris’s running mate didn’t evade combat duty. Republicans are trying to “swiftboat” Tim Walz (the term is explained here), and Vance is their point man. He’s falsely claiming Walz timed his National Guard retirement to avoid deploying to Iraq. But Walz left the Guard to run f[...]

Dead bear cub case solved
In October 2014, a dead bear cub was found in New York’s Central Park. The story made headlines. CNN reported at the time (here), “The only bears known to inhabit New York’s Central Park are at its zoo – so how did a dead bear cub end up under a bush? Neither police nor park officials [&hel[...]
Is Harris husband’s affair a big deal?
The tabloid Daily Mail thinks it is. They ran a big story here. Doug Emhoff (photo) admits he cheated on his first wife, but according to Politico, Harris knew about it she married him, and the Biden campaign knew about it when vetting Harris for vice president (see story here). “The incendiar[...]
Is this now Harris’s race to lose?

Vance’s “war against women”
“CHILDLESS CAT LADIES” REMARK WASN’T AN ISOLATED INCIDENT J. D. Vance’s hostility to childless couples and single adults is deeply embedded in his psychology. He has called them “deranged,” “mentally unstable,” “driftless,” and “sociopaths.” Confronted about his remarks, he f[...]
Will Republicans force you to have children?
This question should be laughable, but it’s no joke. If the Trump/Vance ticket is elected this November, it’s possible J. D. Vance could become president, either by succession or as Trump’s likely successor. And by now it’s out in the open that Trump’s running mate has [...]

Should children vote?
Sen. J. D. Vance (R-OH), Trump’s 2024 running mate for now, seems to think so. The premise of Vance’s now-infamous “childless cat ladies” jibe is that people without children shouldn’t run the country because they have no stake in its future. Like much else Vance believ[...]
