Views from across the spectrum, with a focus on KY; the impacts our legislators have had on the nation and the KY press apparatus' abject failure to adequately inform their readers on critical issues. We stand at the precipice they helped create.

“Family man” and Republican Senator from Ohio accepted money from Epstein's co-conspirator before working to bury the files.

"I believe he was pardoned."
AG Bondi's response to whether or not a Jan 6th rioter who yelled "Kill 'em!" at Capitol Hill police now works for her.

The contempt by this administration for the law and basic human decency is nauseating.

Living along the south shore of Lake Erie in the 1980s BC (before cable) I remember the first time I picked up CBC from Ontario on TV and saw "curling" and thinking to myself "what the f*ck is this". Today, it's an Olympic Sport.

Go Canada.

And yet when push came to shove, #MoscowMitch chose to take a dump on our Constitution and the rule of law.

And mainstream press back home barely ever said a word about it, or his role in what's happening in America today as a result.

Massie is an odd duck. Courting the NRA folks, Libertarians and maga, all of whom he has needed to stay in office. We'll be watching the mid-terms closely to see if the base shows any signs of souring on Dolt47.

Welcome to Kentucky and its GOP supermajority. This is just one example of how they keep ppl in line lest they get "uppity" and forget who's in charge.

There are some that suggest that ICE is composed of pardoned J6 rioters.

Let's look into history for whether such things have happened before.

Oh look!

I’m not sure we’ve properly addressed how profoundly disturbing it is that America can largely shrug at the stashing of human beings in giant warehouses.
February 6, 2026 at 5:12 AM
Reminder: Trump demanded Republicans kill the bi-partisan immigration reform bill set to pass in 2024 so that he could use this manufactured crisis to inflict deadly harm upon innocent Americans that he has a grudge against. He deserves to be arrested and charged for each and every death. Full stop.
