Democracy Survived Another Day

The only thing I know for certain is that I know nothing, (just like Jon Snow.) I was born blue. Maybe the doctor should have slapped me and not my mother. [joke] The democratic party has had me in its clutches since I took my first breath because I was raised in Chicago where everyone … Continue reading Democracy Survived Another Day

FBI Director Wray Misled the House Committee

U.S. intelligence officials knew there was going to be a problem, likely violence, days in advance of January 6. I know what you’re thinking, tell me something I don’t know.

Trump Provoked January 06

Today, Thursday, is likely the last day of the Senate impeachment teams presentation. Wednesday’s argument left viewers shaken as prosecutors pieced together the events from several points of view, particularly that of the Capitol Police. The hours they fought off Trump’s mob, that far outnumbered them, and the violence inflicted on them was graphically displayed. … Continue reading Trump Provoked January 06
