    Democrats flip House seat in Alabama

    There is hope. In the realm of politics, there’s a bias toward a 50/50 split where “free thinking” moderates will gravitate toward the underdog. What we see in special election after special election is that the people voting aren’t just from the realm of politics, I think the GOP has awoken a...

    Eric Swalwell describes the GOP House

    The problem with today’s GOP, they’re a bunch of phony crooks who will feign civility while passing uncivil policy.

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    There have been actions by Israel that I have condemned, repeatedly. The withholding of water to Gaza was atrocious. Israel ought to allow the movement of food and water to Gaza, as I have mentioned elsewhere, the worst Hamas terrorists will be the last ones to starve. Starving the population...

    [W:213] Kari Lake Surrenders in Defamation Lawsuit

    Trump committed a conspiracy to defraud the United States by pushing slates of fake electors to issue fraudulent electoral certificates in an effort to disenfranchise the voting public on behalf of Trump. There’s nothing funny about a twice-impeached traitor ex-president being supported by...

    [W:213] Kari Lake Surrenders in Defamation Lawsuit

    No, the only ones lying about election losses like this are MAGA traitors who would take away our right to vote.

    [W:213] Kari Lake Surrenders in Defamation Lawsuit

    I would think the scared ones are the ones feeling the need to lie about their election losses.

    Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun will step down at end of 2024

    Whether or not it will happen doesn’t change whether or not it should.

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    You both raise good points and I agree in spirit that the loss of innocent civilians is terrible. We must acknowledge, however, that the loss of civilian lives as collateral damage is less terrible than the loss of civilian lives as primary targets. This is why I do not agree with the above...

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    Innocent civilians must be released. Doing so will not resolve any land dispute, but it is a necessary step on the road to a lasting ceasefire.

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    Well, it may be that Hamas releases only some fraction of the remaining hostages and then claims that the others are all unaccounted for. Israel could not trust such a claim. My hope is that Hamas has kept enough of the remaining hostages alive to be able to return nearly all of those who are...

    Will Trump come up with the bond money tomorrow Monday March 25th, 2024

    I can’t believe how often the right plays the political card. It has nothing to do with political beliefs. Political beliefs are about tax cuts and building roads, not about paying a known crook. I suppose the confusion is a little understandable, as Trump, the cult leader, is a political...

    [W:778] (Bloomberg Law) Trump Bond Reduced to $175 Million as He Appeals NY Fine

    They are all most welcome back into the fold today. I heartily congratulate every good American who listens to their conscience and turns their back on Donald Trump.

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    Agreed. Well, yes and no. It’s long been seen as impotent as far as forcing hard consequences, but it is a useful barometer for a soft power that Israel is losing. Which I think was the real purpose of Hamas’ disgusting attack, to bait Israel into hurting its own international reputation. The...

    Israel Isolated as UN Security Council Demands Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

    There is an element of ridiculousness in demanding a ceasefire of Israel while Hamas still holds innocent Israeli civilians hostage. The hostages must be released. Then, Israel would be in a position to permit a ceasefire and an influx of sorely needed humanitarian aid. Hamas should not be in...

    Lol! You think it’s injustice to know who bought the GOP presidential candidate?
