Justice Clarence Thomas, the Supreme Court’s bad boy, is complaining about the “nastiness” of Washington, D.C. (see stories here, here, and here). Well you know what they say: If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Millions of Americans would love for him to qui[...]

“Can Biden draw a crowd like this?”
Said GOP dirty trickster Roger Stone after posting the photo below. Personally, I doubt it; the Rio de Janeiro Olympics and Rod Stewart concert (depending on which you think this is) were more popular than Biden is (see story here). And Stone isn’t fooling anybody by flipping the image (see ph[...]
Reagan on immigration
“This, I believe, is one of the most important sources of America’s greatness. We lead the world because, unique among nations, we draw our people — our strength — from every country and every corner of the world. And by doing so we continuously renew and enrich our nation. [...]

False religions
At least two false religions circulate among America’s evangelicals. One is that God anointed Trump to save our country (see, e.g., story here). (From what, or who?) This is so plainly baloney, and propaganda, it merits no discussion. The other is so-called “prosperity gospel” theo[...]
Don’t tailgate Kristi Noem
If you find yourself driving behind the hapless South Dakota governor who shoots dogs and goats, give yourself at least 1,000 feet of following distance. It may save your life. The lady doesn’t know how to attach the safety chain on a trailer, or a coupler to a hitch ball (read story here). In[...]
BiBi vows to fight with “fingernails” if Biden denies him weapons
After Uncle Sam threatened to cut off his prodigal nephew, the Israeli leader vowed, “If we need to, we will fight with our fingernails.” (See story here.) That’s an interesting concept. It might give Palestinians a fighting chance. If he’s going to do that, he should let the[...]
