I’m not supporting any Democratic candidate for President who doesn’t intend to charge, prosecute, and imprison if convicted the President and others complicit with him under the criminal law. We did “let’s just restore decency” already and it got us here. It’s not enough.

The Department of Justice investigated Louisville policing and in a 50-page report found systemic racism and abuses, without even mentioning the FOP. Now, the resulting consent decree has been abandoned by Pam Bondi’s DOJ. The investigation and report buried, like Breonna herself.

1/ And so we begin the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence by invading a sovereign nation contrary to our own and international law and reminding the world that the United States is now an outlaw and rogue danger to the world community, cruel to its own citizens

Don’t fret SEC. You’ll all start next season overrated again, play each other, and the resulting inflated Strength of Schedule will put another Alabama in the #CFP. And if it doesn’t, something else will. Again.

Pointing out who is dividing us, who is causing the suffering, doesn’t make me a divider. It just means I know who is hurting us and I don’t want to help them do that. Here’s to the good people in 2026.

The President of the United States is owned by Putin. He was compromised by Russia years before he was President. This was known but everyone whose interests were served by his rise ignored it.

Just when I think I’ve cleared the decks to get ready for the new semester my calendar reminds me I’ve got a danged Antifa meeting tonight. And I do NOT remember agreeing to bring potato salad. Christ.

Every single session in Frankfort is another opportunity for the Temu Christians like GOP State Rep. Nancy Tate, this time, to waste our time and money, and the opportunity to pass laws that actually help the people of this state, to introduce cruel, stupid, and unnecessary legislation

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that an additional 4 million Americans will choose to go without health insurance in the face of the impossibly high premiums they would have to pay beginning in January as planned by the President and his party.

There’s the Authoritarianism. Even the Fascism. The Racism. The Criminality. The Fraud. The Graft. The Misogyny. The Cruelty. But on a real, visceral, and nauseating level, there’s the Defilement. He’s vile, yes. We’ve known that. So is every elected Republican who doesn’t reject him.

You have to understand that the world’s largest oil reserves are in Venezuela. Not Saudi Arabia. That the war crimes and murder committed by the U.S. upon “Venezuelan drug boats” are not about drugs.

It’s Christmas every day for Trump at the Supreme Court. That’s not Originalism. That’s Authoritarianism. And if a Federalist begins to describe the so-called Unitary Executive Theory to you excuse yourself as quickly as possible and do some Christmas shopping or anything else worthwhile.

Putting aside arguments about the artificial boundaries of “genres” especially in the amazing worldscape of music today, this *checks out* for my year even though it paints a bit of a villain Origin Story*.

Our Secretary of War [Crimes] won’t be invited to watch the movie Nuremberg at the White House theater because our criminal President bulldozed it the way he’s bulldozed any shred of morality or ethics left in our national leadership. In the meantime: Disobey Unlawful Orders. Always.

University general counsel and boards are crowding ERs with hamstring and Achilles injuries incurred while absolutely sprinting to the White House to surrender everything they’re supposed to stand for.
Northwestern University became the sixth the sixth school to reach a deal with the Trump administration, ending federal investigations into alleged discrimination, race-based admissions and a hostile environment for Jewish students.
Northwestern to pay $75 million to end Trump administration probes
Northwestern’s interim president said the university chose to negotiate an agreement because the “cost of a legal fight was too high and the risks too grave.”

Well over HALF of the students losing their schools under the plan to close Louisville’s public schools are Black. If you’ve read even 20 minutes of honest American history this won’t surprise you.
