The debate today is between those who think that Orange Julius’s use of the image of Christ is blasphemous and those who think it is simply Trump being Trump. I side with the latter group. But, not for their reasons. I agree that in posing as Jesus, Trump is being Trump but not because it … Continue reading Jesus H. Trump

Some Stuff That Just Might Happen
With so many of today’s actual events sounding as if they were made up by someone who’d just gobbled down too many gummies, it is hard to know what really is happening and what isn’t. Pretty soon, we may even see these reports: Today, President Donald J. Trump claimed victory in his war with Iran. He … Continue reading Some Stuff That Just Might Happen
Talk Therapy
How much do we have to take? My God, the avalanche of corruption, mendacity, boorishness, and inhumanity spewing from Orange Julius keeps cascading over us. More and more. I’ve been upset with everything about our Orange Leader for decades, but my ire was lit to a level I had never felt before while I watched … Continue reading Talk Therapy
Some Unheard Truth Socials
I have come across a couple of Truth Social posts that our President intended to send out but, for one reason or another, never made it into the Truthosphere. I thought they might interest you. Here’s the first one. “The world is in better than anyone has ever seen it before. All my friends are … Continue reading Some Unheard Truth Socials

How dare those treasonous bastards rob him of his favorite toy. He immediately convened a meeting back in the Oval Office … Continue reading Tariff Tantrum

On another level, however, they are delivering much the same message - the world is different for the rich and famous. Of course, we always … Continue reading Epstein and Guthrie
Olympics Lament
I used to love to watch the Olympics. The best part was when an American athlete won a gold medal, and they would play the national anthem. There would be a pride that would infuse through me as I’m sure it did through many other hundreds of thousands of Americans. Has there been more of … Continue reading Olympics Lament
Mrs. Bumble Was Right
For decades I have been badgering my friends and anyone else who will listen with my view that Wall Street is nothing but another form of gambling. In fact, I say that it is a fixed form of gambling. Having spent fifty years as an attorney in the regulated commercial casino industry, I have insisted … Continue reading Mrs. Bumble Was Right

“A republic is the best form of government, a government of laws, not arbitrary rule. John Adams In the aftermath of our country’s usurpation of the sovereignty of the Venezuelan independent state, it is time to remember John Adams’s above quote.
