Doesn’t Nixon look like a piker now? Breaking and entering? Kids do that in High School. Sure, it steamrolled into a horrifically criminal cover-up, but when it finally spiraled out of control leading to the firing of people that would not comply, that was about it. It was over fairly Read more…
I feel a bit embarrassed. Humiliated if I’m honest. Big fancy know-it-all with my blog pontificating about the day’s goings-on, and all this time I thought I was writing about a health crisis that had been compounded by the resultant economic collapse of both the macro- and the micro-economy and Read more…
The lack of a focused response from the Federal government has passed beyond frustration and has simply become Federal policy. There won’t be a coordinated effort with specific goals and strategies, a clear direction that all efforts are enlisted toward a common goal. Empathy is in short supply in the Read more…
This was a very big news day. It was discovered today that the United States government has three branches. Who knew? Two of them got very busy. The other lurked.

Another day of inanity. Itemizing it seems tedious, though each iteration of it has its own unique patina, a creative cretinism if you will. No masks around the President by decree. POTUS is afraid of looking weak. But two cases so far of his very inner circle have been diagnosed Read more…
This is gaining momentum, and it’s going to get very, very dangerous for you and me. The President is considering resurrecting the just dismantled Covid-19 Task Force. The reason? “I had no idea how popular the Task Force was.” He thought that the outcry regarding the destruction of the force Read more…
Boy oh boy do we all have egg on our faces today! It turns out Jared Kushner was right all along. Victory is ours! The Feds DID check off all the medical boxes, and lo and behold we are celebrating the great success of the Administration. Let’s go back to Read more…
