Dateline: ObscenityVille, May 26, 2025 Tim Walz, Kamala’s running mate, has been running his mouth inciting violence against law enforcement and the Trump administration. His commencement address to the graduating class of the University of Minnesota law school has been thoroughly criticized for urging violence against law enforcement. Walz likened Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents to the Gestapo “scooping folks up off the street” and shipping them to foreign torture dungeons. For good measure, he labeled Trump a tyrant whoRead more…
Dateline: PorkBarrelVille, May 21, 2025 Republican Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY) is the spokesperson for a group of GOP’rs threatening to hold Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill hostage to their political posturing. These politicians insist that the federal tax deduction for State And Local Taxes (SALT) be raised substantially. The current limit of $10,000 was imposed in 2017 during Trump’s first term. The proposed limit in the BBB is an increase to $30,000. But, for Lawler and his cohorts, a $20,000 increaseRead more…
Dateline: WhatIsHeThinkingVille, April 20, 2025 Senator Van Hollen’s motive in meeting in El Salvador with illegal immigrant and suspected MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego-Garcia is a mystery.

Dateline: The Medicaid Marsh, April 15, 2025 With an increasingly loud drumbeat, Democrats claim that Trump’s debt and tax reduction goals will force a cut in Medicaid benefits. Republicans deny that cuts will be made insisting that DOGE efficiencies will reduce costs sufficiently. There’s no current litmus test to determine the truth of it. It is certain that benefit reductions with hurt Trump perhaps irrevocably. Also without doubt is the fact billions of dollars in Medicaid benefits are currently spentRead more…
Dateline: ClownVille, March 25, 2025 Stephen Sondheim wrote the song Send In The Clowns for the 1973 musical A Little Night Music. The ballad laments a doomed relationship and expresses deep regret. The title is a recognition of the foolishness of squandered opportunity. Fifty years later, the lyrics describe the state of the Democrat Party with its very strained voter relationships. Some Dems, but almost none openly, are even experiencing deep regret. And there are plenty of clowns. They’re theRead more…
Dateline: StompVille, March 17, 2025 Trump was inaugurated 56 days ago. Since then, the Dems have flailed non-stop making fools of themselves raging over anything and everything he does. No message. No strategy. No leadership. Until, maybe, now. They’ve become so steeped in anger that, apparently, resistance fueled by seething petulance has become their strategy.
