And I looked, and behold the pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him – Book of Revelation As a respected commentator, my job is to stay calm amid calamity. Even when I hear of a new dinner-table hazard for all of mankind. Unfortunately, considering the threat…
DetailsI saw the president call the ABC reporter “fake news.” That’s a laugh. The reporter was asking about his obsequiousness with murderous Saudi dictator Mohammed bin Salman while Don and Eric, aka the Crypto Sibs, do business with his government. Asking the president about important matters like that is the furthest thing from “fake news.”…
Details“Either you want to advance the cover-up or you want the truth to come out.” – Congressman Jamie Raskin. Multiple choice. Was he referring to: A) A cover-up to mask extensive engagement with Russia in advance of the 2016 election and, as president, extensive efforts to gum up Robert Mueller’s probe into collusion? B) A…
DetailsMaybe it was all that sledgehammering of White House walls. Hard labor at 79. Maybe it was partying like the devil Halloween night while government stood still. (Did they check the ages of those girls taking turns in the giant martini glass?) Whatever, no one could blame Orange Kool-Aid Man for being tuckered out Election…

The biggest reason, however, may be what I encountered at the grocery store the other day: the $2.40 tomato. I don’t usually…
DetailsEveryone should be as angry as my son over the insult. And I mean everyone – Democrat, independent, libertarian, MAGA true believer. Melania, Ivanka, Don Jr., Eric, Tiffany, Barron. Yes, even J.D. “In a Trance” Vance. The insult from a petty man with no shame and no sense of duty. It ruined a sparkling notion…
DetailsI shouldn’t read the news before bed. Because of such an error one night, I was pondering the idiotic political theater of sending troops to “war”-torn Portland when I fell into uneased sleep. I found myself at Denver’s Coors Field. The game had barely begun when glares exchanged between the Colorado Rockies and visiting SF…
DetailsSo much to talk about. — About the Epstein files. Republicans said they were ready to release them once. — About government censorship. Six million TV viewers and 18 million Youtubers are talking about it after tuning into Jimmy Kimmel’s return. — About our president’s unhinged and disgraceful speech to the United Nations – if…
