Okay! Here is the list of songs I chose from: en.wikipedia.org/… Jennifer Lopez, at number 99: Strong beat. Fun video. Fun! Ha! Lonestar, at number 90: Yes! I like that. No time like the present, as they say. Goo Goo Dolls, at number 84: That video,...

It's very close to a wtf to win on the promise of a $2000 emergency check in the two Georgia Senate races and then not delivering the $2000 emergency check because of lawyerly backpedaling. Democrats in Congress and the White House can explain all...

It appears that Trump is losing his control of the Republican Party . More republican voters support him than do not, but there are now enough republican voters who don’t fully embrace Trumpism for more than just a few of the most moderate...

The Fraud of the Century is a book by historian Roy Morris Jr., about the 1876 election that put Republican Rutherford B. Hayes into the White House over Democrat Samuel Tilden. If Donald Trump had gotten his way, the 2020 election would be a shoo-in...

The Trump campaign and Republicans have brought a whopping 13 lawsuits in Pennsylvania alone in their futile effort to find a case that allows them to have the U.S. Supreme Court declare him reelected. It's not working, because so many of the cases are...

In a flailing attempt (what does he ever do that isn’t flailing?) to somehow pretend the current 25th Amendment buzz isn’t all about him, Donald Trump appeared to step in a big pile of “shit, this isn’t going well, is it?” this morning. FiveThirtyEight...

The year-round Silly Season continues and apparently there is a primary insurgency against Nancy Pelosi, as if we could have imagined Steny Hoyer holding Trump’s tiny feet to the impeachment fire. Then there’s celebrity endorsers. Actress and activist...

The Republicans in the Senate claim that they can’t vote for witnesses because it would take too long. Is this really any different than the Kavanaugh hearings?, or the Bush v Gore trial from the 2000 election? Or, the confirmation of Clarence Thomas?...

I’ve never written a diary before, but I did post this as a comment and others suggested I turn it into one to share it with the rest of you. Isn’t this wild? I have no further comment, the title says it all.
