If they were to prevail, that would be the end of our democracy. They would have to have the army take their side and defend them. Otherwise, the capital would be a war zone like it is in a lot of these third world countries. And then what? We have a military dictatorship. What’s so...Read More
Be careful what you wish for! For years the Republican Party wanted votes from the religious right. Through careful manipulation by Mitch McConnel and Donald Trump conservative judges were accepted to the Supreme Court and incredibly, the 1973 decision Roe vs. Wade was overturned. I don’t care if it’s rape, incest, if the mother’s life...Read More

Why do we have to buy this stuff? When I was young only rich people had it. But the owners of these companies lobbied and lobbied until every state eventually complied. I’m from Missouri and in 1988 I went to see a dancer in Denver, Colorado to ask her if I could have her hand...Read More
I don’t care if Donald Trump pays his taxes. I don’t care if he inflates his properties when he’s trying to get a loan and then deflates them when declaring income tax. I don’t care if he has secret documents at his house and could care less if he paid a flat backer to keep...Read More
The exception to this rule is if you are offered a 401-k (IRA) from your employer or can start a Simple IRA plan if you are in business. You should take advantage of this. That’s because 10% of your contribution is tax deferred. So in a worst case scenario you’re not going to have much...Read More
I watched some of the Oprah interview with Harry and Meghan. They said that certain people in the Royal family were wondering what their son Archie’s “skin tone” might be. The history of England is a combination of two peoples, the Saxons and the Vikings. It doesn’t get any “whiter” than that! Prince Harry is...Read More
We have been learning from Elon Musk that the Republican voices were being silenced on Twitter. Remember the Mueller report? How about the Steele dossier? The Democrats were trying anything they could do to stop Republican effort from the top down. Was the 2020 election stolen? Sixty courts looked at this and determined it was...Read More
The Biden administration has a constituency of voters in the LGBTQ community that they represent. Let’s not forget that fact. Joe Biden as president of the Democratic Party should (if he is a good leader) be the spokesperson or figure head of that group. The Democratic Party is a liberal thinking group that want to...Read More
