A former United States president, Donald J. Trump, is now a convicted felon.
It sure is nice to be able to write that sentence.
Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records — but not just any business records, as you’ve no doubt heard — business records that were tied into a criminal conspiracy to sway the election.
The Alito flag(s) story keeps unfurling, now with spousal spit!
In case you missed one of the latest updates, the New York Times is reporting that Justice Samuel Alito’s wife, Martha-Ann Alito, allegedly spit in the general direction of her horrifyingly leftist anti-Trump neighbors.
The cult is getting cultier.
Speculation is growing about who Donald Trump will pick as his running mate, so possible contenders are making the trek to his criminal trial in Manhattan in the hopes that the Defendant-in-Chief will look favorably upon them.
Free speech is under attack on college campuses across the United States.
While protests are messy and disruptive, they aren’t nearly as dangerous as the impulse to shut down free expression by sending in riot cops.
In one of the more ominous signs of the chilling effect right-wing House Republicans are having on speech, Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser was granted a reprieve from appearing before a House panel after police broke up an encampment at George Washington University.
Gaza war protests have spread to college campuses all across the United States and anti-war protesters have conducted civil disobedience at Google’s headquarters and on city streets.
Hundreds of people have been arrested and scores of workers have been fired as a result of their actions. The protests have disrupted universities, workplaces and commutes . . . and that’s the idea.
I know, it’s an insult to mobsters eveywhere to compare Donald Trump to a mob boss, but the similarities are just too numerous and recurring to ignore.
A real mob boss would at least be smart enough to not publicly attack the judge and his family.
The Biden administration line about “Israel’s right to defend itself” is becoming more untenable with each passing day.
Besides the fact that we’re weren’t questioning Israel’s right to defend itself in the first place, now it’s getting much harder to look at killing over 30,000 Palestinians as a real strategy of self-defense.
Killing tens of thousands of women, children and innocent civilians doesn’t count as defending yourself, that’s offense.
Sometimes a presidential candidate’s deranged ramblings about a battery-powered boat and a shark attack are really about something else.
Like electric vehicles, the oil and gas lobby, and most importantly, Republican tribalism.
Trump — meaning the Republican Party — has become vehemently anti-EV.
