“Art Peeps”
“Anyone But DUKE!!”
In a depressing week of market selloffs and ever-escalating malfeasance from Trump/Musk, Inc., there was one bright spot. Duke University’s men’s basketball team, loaded with the best college talent (and most annoyingly entitled student body and alums) that money can buy, lost to Houston in the NCAA tournament semi-finals. There is hope! “A loss forContinue reading ““Anyone But DUKE!!””
“My Apologies, Mr. Trump”
I reckon now that I’ve been wrong The White House is where Trump belongs It’s obvious, his vast appeal This master of the art of the deal Whenever there is trouble brewing He’ll save us all from rack and ruin I care not if he quotes “Mein Kampf” Providing he can drain the swamp! AndContinue reading ““My Apologies, Mr. Trump””
“Fight for Old DC!”
The folks at Hard Rock Cafe didn’t ask me, but here are my suggestions for naming their specialty cocktails in the Trump 2.0 era: The Election Denier The Insurrectionist The Orange-faced, Poop-throwing Monkey The Daily Dipshit Covfefe Martini The Feculent Philistine The Unholy Smegroni Gin and Clorox Putin’s Lapdog That Musk Rat The Highball Hitler
“What would Andy Rooney say??”
You know what Andy Rooney would say? He’d say that Donald Trump is an irredeemable, lying-ass, corrupt, shit-for-brains jagoff who shouldn’t be within a thousand miles of the nuclear codes, that’s what. And you thought this was to be a nice little intermezzo from my running political diatribe. Fuck that!
“Dodgy Days at DOJ”
Our laws cannot defend themselves. It takes people of sound reason and skill and passion (delivered dispassionately) and knowledge and courage. People who make forceful and logical arguments based upon facts and historical/legal precedent who will not bow to intimidation. Again, and again, and again until whatever febrile illness (in Trump’s case a fulminant coliformContinue reading ““Dodgy Days at DOJ””
“Here Lies Our Democracy”
Despite the worst efforts of Trump/Musk & Co., I remain optimistic that we can and will withstand the onslaught of skullduggery and outright stupidity that defines the current administration. The United States has endured a bloody civil war, the grave injustice of the Jim Crow era, two world wars, the Dust Bowl and Great Depression,Continue reading ““Here Lies Our Democracy””
“Good Weird or Bad?”
In recent days, our underground folk troubadour Tommy Treacle has re-tuned to the more political. His latest song was written after the series of awkward public statements made during the campaign by JD Vance, Donald Trump’s Acting Sycophant in Chief. To my eye, he’s an odd cat who looks like the poster child for theContinue reading ““Good Weird or Bad?””
Potent Quotables:
“For every complex problem, there is a solution that is clear, simple, and wrong.” — H.L. mencken I’m in despair for, among other things, running low on negative superlatives to describe these MAGASSHOLES. It’s 95% lies and fantasies and hypocrisy and adolescent trolling. It will end badly. And worst for the red-state working class whoContinue reading “Potent Quotables:”
