“It now seems apparent there won't be enough of an improvement in inflation by the fall to save the Democrats in the midterm elections.”
Looks pretty dire for Democrats. Time to crank up distractions, rely on the press to cover backsides, and maybe throw in a mass protest or two. Are you fired up, ready to go? The only reliable saving grace for Democrats will be Republicans screwing it up. And Republicans do have a...

Hey, Zelensky, check the oil while you're under that bus. Everyone should have known better than to believe the war in Ukraine was about anything other than Joe Biden. Biden the Wise. Biden the Strong. Biden unified Europe and expanded NATO. Biden defeated the Evil Empire and saved the...

“Russia and Turkey voiced support Wednesday for a safe corridor in the Black Sea to allow Ukrainian grain exports, but Kyiv rejected the proposal,...”
Turkey controls the passage into the Black Sea. And the Russian Black Sea fleet is the dominant naval force. But, somehow, ignoring those facts will allow grain to move into the global markets. What we're witnessing is a crisis of politics. Markers have been placed on the negotiating table...

“People must pay attention.”
Another political snow job being imposed onto the public. It's not Trump who is damaging American's trust in democracy - or - trust in government. Everyone has heard of Nancy Pelosi, right? Pelosi has been called the most influential and powerful politician in Washington D.C. Pelosi has the...
