Is Biden or Trump worse for inflation?

Polls show inflation is a top concern of voters, and could decide the 2024 election. If you chose a candidate based on that issue, who would you go with, Biden or Trump? Here are 5 reasons why Trump might be the worst pick: 1. Trump favors tariffs.  Trump claims tariffs would be paid by China [&hel[...]

Artificial intelligence (video)

Artificial intelligence threatens to disrupt the 2024 elections. Propagandists can now produce fake audio and videos so realistic we can’t tell them from real ones. They could manipulate us into voting for bad candidates by falsely portraying good ones. Take the video below; if you didn’[...]

Should Biden voters worry about his weak polls?

Some recent polls show Trump leading Biden. (I won’t cite specific polls, because they change daily and weekly.)  Should Biden supporters (and people who shudder at Trump) worry he might lose the election? Let’s start with words often attributed* to the immortal baseball philosopher, Yo[...]

DeSantis and Pence vouch for Confederate traitor

Braxton Bragg (photo, left) got a free college education at West Point, at the expense of taxpayers of the United States, then waged war against his benefactors. Although Bragg committed treason (per Const. Art. III, §3), he arguably deserved a medal for incompetence, thereby contributing to the Co[...]

Biden crimes vs. Trump crimes

If I tell an FBI agent somebody told me a “source” has audio recordings of Joe Biden taking a $5 million bribe, the agent will write it down on a form called an FD-1023. Now substitute an unnamed whistleblower who can’t be located for “I” and you’ve got the grand [...]

Nikki Haley says she’ll pardon Trump

Nikki Haley, who’s running for president, says if she’s elected she’ll pardon Trump for his classified documents crimes (see story here). “When you look at a pardon, the issue is less about guilt, and more about what’s good for the country,” Haley said. Right. From that persp[...]

Republicans are outraged Trump is indicted for breaking the law

Trump’s MAGA movement caught many Americans by surprise. They’ve never seen anything like it before. This is the first time anyone has tried to overthrow our democracy. To outsiders, Trump looks like a pied piper leading a crowd of zombies into a never-never land of lies, fantasies, and [...]

Mike Pence’s campaign lies

Mike Pence launched his quixotic campaign for the presidency on Wednesday, June 7, 2023, with a pack of lies. I say “quixotic” because Pence isn’t going to be president. He has no constituency; he’s too rightwing to appeal to Democrats, and Trump Republicans won’t touch[...]

Nikki Haley wants to “save America”

From what? Union wages? Women controlling their own bodies? Queer people? In a townhall on Sunday, June 4, 2023 (read story here), she wouldn’t get specific about abortion. Women voters are entitled to assume she would sign a nationwide ban, because that’s what Republicans are enacting [...]

Biden and the sandbag

Republicans want you to believe Biden is too old for another term. That’s doubtful, but even if true, isn’t a good enough reason to elect any Republican presently in the field. Amusingly, Republicans who question Biden’s mental faculties are complaining he outsmarted them in debt c[...]
